Update...

And oldschool can verify all this as I was om the phone with him at the time

Gimilsim, if you read this check all your ASA's before you ship them out. I the anno inside everything made it near impossible to screw in my tank.

So I had to use a wrench to force my tank in. Seriously. I unscrewed it the same way, not cross threaded either. Just a very tight fit.

So while I'm screwing this in, the bolt that holds the gun together falls out. The tank then tried to gas up the gun at the same time... Since there is no bolt holding the gun together the top piece tries to come out, an oring comes off, and my entire tank just pisses out of the gun as I can't unscrew it.

I can't make that up.

No test tomorrow now, this weekend it will have to be. I still sort of like the gun, but man....
Should get some unbiased comparative shooting tests over the weekend.
