    News that only a few people could care about!


    Well, I know a few people here might actually care 'bout this, but I'm gonna post anyway because I'm happy about it.
    My VM-68 is finally up and working. For those of you who dont know, my VM had been having some issues for about 2yrs. First it wouldnt recock, then it would dump a full charge before ya even cocked it, then it wouldnt recock...... But, Its all better and already has a new life planned for it. Dont know how many of you will actually care, But ya never know.

      That's pretty sweet, I always loved the look of the VM, and had one for a few years. It also had recocking problems and a leak I never could get rid of, so I gave it to a friend who was able to fix it up (ah the days when I could afford such extravagance...). I now attribute those problems to the fact that I never could leave the silly thing alone once I got the valve adjusted. Enjoy it!

            www.vm68.com as well

            Congrats on the VM, getting them to work can be a beast at times. Mine has a slight leak and velocity issues right now, but when i get the Pro Comp kit in i'll tear everything down and figure it out. Old school for life.

                      LOL, very true indeed. OF course, they dont trashtalk me anymore....Not after I brought in my oldschool PGP. They trashed me right up to the first game, then I started popping them right off the break. More then a few jaws went slack. So, they respect whatever I bring out there....so I have to resist the urge to get a Blade and head out there. lol
