8 feet is kind of long for a shroud isn’t it? I mean, seems like the maximum effective length would be shorter than that….

Yes, it’s kinda long but you can get used to it. Here’s mine after it was installed. Not exactly a “point and shoot” set up, but man, is she quiet. 😛

Won’t need a scope either. Just put the end of the shroud beside the squirrel up in the tree and shoot.:P

Yeah, but man its gonna be quiet !! 😆

My first try at aluminum tubing was at the Do It Center. After I bought it, I found the ID of the tubing was actually off center, with a thin wall on one side and a thicker wall on the other, making it impossible to turn a cap that would be flush all the way around the tubing surface.

I found a metal supplier right down the street that carries 8′ of black anodized 🙂 tubing with a perfect ID center for 3 bucks LESS than the Do It Center. Obviously I should have went to the supplier first. The black anodize is a great color match for the gun.

Looks like a tag telling someone what they paid more than they should have for a piece of aluminum tube.

Where does it say that?

Oops, forgot to put a smiley face with my post. My comments were made in jest.

That’s what I get for staying up to late on a Friday night. 😳

All I know is there’s fixin to be some more dead squirrels in my neck of the woods.

it was a bit over priced but not to bad, I would have 3 round trip drive to get to a metal or welding supply so the 5 extra bucks I payed wsa cheep when you factor in the 10 miles to the gallon I get in the truck

yup, that looks like a Lowes “overpriced tag”. LOL 😛

If stock has a tag, it usually means its from a hardware store – who charge a lot more than a metal supplier.

I try and go to a metal supplier for stuff, but sometimes I dont have the time to drive or want to wait for soemthing from online… plus if its 1 peice of tube then why wait/pay gas when its just a few dollars.

I’m jealous the tubing I purchase does not come with any tag.

You, Da Man!
