Q:

Just ordered a Short one

From Tony, it should arrive in 2 weeks or so after he test shoots it.

I can’t wait, in the mean time what to crown the little one with, a Bug buster ?

That’s nice looking gun,

LDC baffle arrangement.

How to get the end cap off, I guess I can wait till one day when I remove the barrel ?

The decibel level is hard to compared to the Crickets I have and can be very subjective depending on barrel length, caliber and FPE, but so far in general it seems to have a higher pitch.

Seems that Tony has the same taste and feel that I do with the trigger, he set it up just the way I have both of my Crickets !
Just need to move the location a bit back for my hand size.

The all black Mutant with the silver trigger looks great.

Looks like you received a shooter. Enjoy your Shortie Greg!

Well after reading up on the shortie and following this post, I bit the bullet and placed my order for one. Next shipment will arrive in two weeks. Gonna put a couple of my present guns on the market to make room for it. :fishinghole:

That sounds exciting, every time I buy a new gun it’s anticipation at it’s greatest !

Congrats on getting on also Syclone, hope to see you post your review also.

Its going to be a long weekend waiting for your Mutant Shortie to arrive. Have you decided on a scope?

:biggrinn: That seems to be the hottest topic when getting a new gun, no not yet.

I hope I can work on my Cricket compact this weekend, but my wife and I have been so busy with domestic chores.
I what to go in and rebuild the regulator, I have a feeling the O-ring retainer inside of has backed out a bit ?

How are you doing my friend Sam are you shooting a lot ?

The weather here has been rainy and its been windy when it hasn’t been raining. So not too much shooting.

As far as a scope I am going to recommend the Sightron SIII 3.5-10 x 42 SF with the Mildot or the LRIRMOA redical. Sightron’s are made in Japan with a lifetime warranty. The turrets give a solid click every time they are turned. They are well made scopes and at 18 oz not too heavy. Clear glass. They are built to last and feel solid in your hand.
Link to the scope: http://info.sightron.com/Riflescopes/SIII-Series/SIIISS3.510X44LRIRMOA/

I bought mine at Optic Planet because they had the best price both times. Optic Planet has coupons if you need one email me and I will explain.

Here is a couple of photos of SIII 3.510X44 LRIRMOA on my Carbine .22.

GKU that Mamba Lite is sweeeet, I’ve been drooling over them for a while. I have a few Cobras that work perfect for my 50 yd work zone. I also have a 10×44 Viper on my .25 Cricket that’s amazing, but too heavy for anything else but a PB. I’m a big fan of the SCB reticle, I’m voting for either of the Mamba Lites :5:
