one step higher
Hi guys,
just have to let you all know my new Condor has arrived decembre 22. I used to have fun with my Talon SS but a little voice somewhere deep inside kept yelling for a Condor. It`s that same little voice i hear when i`m driving my car, “go faster!”, it`s the same voice that i hear when i`m drinking beer and i had to be home some hours “Go drink another beer man, it tastes good!” So i bought it. And i`m happy i did!
Last saturday i did some long range shooting, 110 meter, i didn`t have too much trouble hitting 2 ” targets. I used baracuda extra `eavy`s, powerwheel set on 8. Pellet traveled at 1070 fps.
Life`s fun shooting an airgun.
See ya around.
Roel

Hi,
suddenly there`s a bad case of Condoritis in the Netherlands. That`s quite weird. When you want to buy a Condor over here you have to cough up about $1200 bucks! (Naw, i`m not exaggerating, don`t be surprised when it`s more !!!!) How `bout that! But since one of our forummembers decided to move to the US it`s possible to get `m a little cheaper, no mo`1200 bucks! What you guys are paying in Dollars we`re paying in Euro`s, that`s inclusive sending and taxes. I`m sure in a few years Vincent will have a statue somewehere over here, he deserves it anyway.
Next saturday there`s a shoot on a 100 meter range, by that time i want to have done some adjusting of the old tophat and i wanna know where the sweetspot of the Condor is. Last saturday with the powerwheel on 6 i took a lot of shots, when i filled the bottle again i noticed that there was only 870 PSI (60 bar) left! The first few shots there`s some light valve lock, after about some 5 or so shots it starts getting more active, the speed of the pellet is going up fast and there`s some well appreciated recoil. I recently developed the nasty habit to slaughter Combro`s. In the last few months i shot 4 of the little suckers to pieces, next saturday i`m gonne get my chrony and i`ll do some serious testing, i`m just as curious about that, as the lady next door is when she sees me with another woman. My last ever Combro died on the barrel of the Condor, the blast blew out a rain of Combro-guts over my backyard.
I really like to be at that shooting range, it`s got a low ceiling. The sound of the gun comes echoeing back at you, a long rumbling echoe of the shot. Nope, it`s not only hitting what you aimed for, there`s a lot more fun in shooting.
I`m gonna keep ya all posted.
see ya around, Roel
