Also i want OldGoat let us know whether still he is carrying the o-ring sets or all sold out? or these can be used for new R3M? or not? what is the difference?
Thanks for you guys …. Sorry if it is duplicate topic…..
Edit; I am wondering to know why he is not appearing for awhile?

I have to agree with Ville on this. If Old Goat really had the best of intentions, he would have taken a Greyhound bus to Kurdistan, and dropped them into Hemn’s hands personally. I am willing to bet you that Hemn would have asked him to stay for supper as a sign of his gratitude!!!
Old Goat, you master of animal husbandry, can you tell me/us about the “new Valve” stem mentioned in your PM to Hemn? I want a spare and if I get one, I want to be certain to get the correct one for my .25 Long. Any information would be appreciated.
Oh yes, Hemn…if Old Goat does come to visit, be certain to lock your sheep in a secure shed and hid the key. His avatar is an actual picture of him with his “girlfriend” while he attended a meeting of the “Society of Animal Lovers”

Uncle H 😯 😯 t
PS: Hemn, if you are out and around, please be careful of those IUD’s the terrorists hide in the road!
Old Goat is without a doubt one of the Best Guys Around! He has really gone out of his way to help me out several times!

Hi Hemn, Now you see, not all Americans are bad.
Tedd is an Awesome guy. I offered a trade my Edgun R3 for his Edgun R2.5, but he finally got email from Tony that his R3 is in. We did not follow through with the trade, but we became friends. Knowing that he is busy most of the time, and the last Oring group buy got a little out of hand, that is why I took on the task.
Tedd is truely an amzing guy! Tedd, just sit back and relax buddy. I will handle this Group buy.

I really don´t think OG tried hard enough … 😆
Gentlemen;
as i mentioned, our brother Mr. Tedd (Oldgoat) is really really nice & helpful guy, one day i surprised when i got a PM from him and you see what he wrote;

Brother Hemn, send me your complete address and I will see if I can send you some O rings for your Matador.
I can also send you a degas tool that I make that will allow you to easily remove the air from the air tube/regulator/air valve housing. The tool makes it so much easier and faster to set the regulator. Your first regulator remove/set/reinstall will take you around an hour. After the first one, the later ones can be done in 20 minutes.
Can you do Pay Pal in Iraq? If so; I can send you a couple of air valve rods as soon as I get the new style from Tony. The air valve rods go for $35 US each.
You don’t owe me anything for the O rings and tool, the rods will be $35 each and I will pay shipping to you.
All of the stuff that I send will be by USPS mail, not UPS or whatever. I have sent O rings virtually around the globe to buyers and, I haven’t had a problem doing so. All of my orders have been received in a week or two.
Let me know; my friend that I haven’t met: yet.
Tedd )))))
then i replied & told him that i cannot accept to pay for me, but he was interesting on that and replied as shown below;

Brother Hemn: I THINK that I have your correct address as:
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hemn Mahmmod Muhammed
axxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Erbil, Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
00964
If I send the package to you using that address, will it make it to you?
The biggest problem that I had when I was doing the group O ring buys was getting a workable overseas address that I could send the package to and then having it get there.
The United States Post Office can tend to lose an overseas package if it is not labeled exactly correct.
I also have to compress the address so I can write it down on the overseas form that I have to fill out, hand to the post office, to send a package.
If I have your address correct: I will send the O rings and the degas tool out you this week. The package will include ALL of the O rings in the Matador and will have at least 5 of each size. Some of them you might never need, the ones that you will ever need, I will include more of.
Don’t worry about the shipping, it will only be $4-$5 US and you are now a member of my Edgun Matador TAG family! I am serious about you being in my Edgun family!
Family members don’t worry about a couple of dollars!
I will send the O rings and degas tool first. I have emailed Ed and Tony and asked if the old style, longer, air valve rods, will work in the new style air valve chamber once they have been cut to length. I know that I sent one guy an old longer style rod and he cut it down and made it work.
I want to be sure that I can successfully ship you a package before I send you any air valve rods!
With The Highest Regards,
Tedd)))))
then i thanked him and asked him some questions about the degas tool he replied ;

Hello Brother Hemn.
At work tonight, I made your degas and air valve/regulator housing removal tool. I used materials from work and I got paid for making it! I will include it with the O ring shipment that I will send to you Monday.
The tool will allow you to remove all of the air pressure in the regulator and air tube and, once the pressure is released, you can remove the 3 screws in the rear of the air tube that hold the air valve/regulator body in place and pull the body out for a regulator adjustment.
Using my tool, you don’t need to remove the front air tube end cap/pressure gauge assembly and use something to push the air valve/reg housing out. Using the tool saves a LOT of time!
As far as removing and adjusting the regulator, have you watched my video?
viewtopic.php?t=21283&highlight=removing+adjusting+r3s+regulator
The tool makes it easy to remove the air and you can disregard the link to Ted’s video on removing the air in a Matador as my tool removes all of the air pressure.
I have sent Tony and Ed a PM and asked if the older/longer style air valve rods can be cut down and used in the new style Matador air valve housing. I haven’t heard back from Ed yet. Tony and I both have longer air valve rods; I have sent one of my longer air valve rods to a guy with the newest R3, he had to cut both ends down to get it to work and it has worked flawlessly for him since then.
I want to hear from Ed before I send you any air valve rods. I also want to see if I can successfully ship anything to you in Iraq before I try sending something that I have some dollars invested in.
I really don’t have any dollars invested in the O rings and tool and it will only cost $4-$5 for shipping to get it to you, if I can get it to you. I am not worried about the $4-$5 that shipping will cost me; I feel that it is the least that I can do for an Edgun brother that can’t find the stuff locally!
I would like to think that you would do the same for me if our situations were reversed.
You can email me at: xxxxx@msn.com
As always, just PM or email me with any questions.
With The Highest Regards: My Edgun Brother,
Tedd )))))
after that day Tedd has visited US post office to send my package then they thought he has a wrong address;

Hello Brother Hemn.
I tried sending your package today and the post office didn’t think that I had the correct zip code. I wanted to be sure that I had it right.
I had your address as:
Cxxxxxxxx
Erbil, Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
00964
If this is correct, I will ship your stuff Tuesday morning.

Tedd )))))
Then i asked him my JSB Pellets are already dropped down to under a only 1K, then i will be needing around 10K or less, and i have checked i realized that if i could to buy them them bring via USPS it will cost me less than anywhere….. 😯 😯 😯 , and asked him whether he could to post my o-rings or not? he replied;

Hello Brother Hemn!
Yes; the package did finally get shipped out to you Friday, 11-1-2013.
I have to fill out a special overseas form for overseas shipments. The form has to have the COMPLETE company name, the person that it is being shipped to and the COMPLETE address to ship it to.
The problem with the form is that it didn’t give me enough room, with the smallest legible print that I could come up with, to fill out the lines correctly. I must have gone thru 8-10 of the forms before I decided that I just couldn’t fill one out correctly!
I had your shipment ready to go; except for a properly filled out form, on 10-30-2013. I had to ship a Boss, that I sold, UPS and I asked the UPS store what the package to you would cost me to ship it. The Boss, shipped in a large, bulky, heavy box and insured for $2000 cost me $38.00 for shipping and insurance. UPS wanted $203.00 to ship the little package to you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I didn’t know what I was going to do: I couldn’t write all of the needed information on the small space that was provided with the USPS form and UPS was just out of the question for shipping!
After work that night, I was telling a couple of friends at the bar about my troubles trying to ship the package to you. I told them that no one could write the information that small and still keep it readable. I just happened to have your address and a few of the forms with me and I was showing them to my friends. A lady friend told me that she could fill out the form correctly.
I gave her your address and the extra forms, it took her a couple of tries but, she got it done!
I took your package and the form to the post office 10-31-2013 on my way to work. There was a big line, I waited in line a little while and I decided that I wouldn’t have time to wait and still make it to work so, I left.
Today, 11-1-2013, I took your package back to the post office and tried shipping it. I had to wait in line a while and, when it got to be my turn, the computer locked up half way thru the shipping transaction! I was holding the only open line up so; the lady called another worker up and had him open the other line while she was waiting for her computer to “time out” and restart.
After waiting another 10 minutes, I cut in line on the other line and finally got your package sent!
So: YES, I did get your O rings and degas tool sent. NOW, I am curious as to how long it will take you to get the package.
PS: I am NOT trying to make you feel bad about the trouble that I had shipping the package to you!
I did 2 group O ring buys and I sent O rings to people all over the globe. The special form that USPS makes me fill out has caused me problems a lot of times.
I will have to admit, yours was the hardest! LOL!
I really do like to help out brother Edgun owners! I really do! If I didn’t; I wouldn’t go thru the trouble! LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the O rings and degas tool make it to you, I will have the after work bar lady friend fill out the forms for the air valve rods and pellets.
PSS: USPS has a large box that they have marked as $14.95 shipped, no matter what it weighs. I asked the lady if I bought one of the boxes, filled it with 20 pounds of lead pellets and sent it to you; would it only cost me $14.95? She said that it would be around $45-$50 to you. The box is bigger than it needs to be for your pellets. I can use the extra space for extra padding.
Best Regards: My Brother,
Tedd ))))))

“I´ve been to USA many times and i´m planning my next trip as we speak. I love being there – my best vacation memories are all from the States. That´s saying a lot since i´ve been around and all over.

If you have money/good , safe income it´s a paradise. If you´re not that lucky – well…
Before my accident i was in a middle of a process of seeking after a house- or a condo- to buy in FLA and have as a place for vacation and retirement and i got a climpse of the weird laws and such during that same process. Some funny,some not,some meaningful and some just downright stupid. Nevertheless – without the crash i´d most probably own a property in FLA right now. Maybe later – we´ll see. Anyone know if there are some houses available down the road from H 😯 😯 T ??”
Amen !! Stupidity isn´t hard to find – it´s much,much harder to avoid it. I´d say impossible.
Nature vs. Beaches isn´t too hard to choose between – especially at my current situation those damned Beaches are a bitch to roll around on. I come from Finland and i´m accustomed to nature and love it. FLA was/is on the map since i have good friends living there and it´s warm the year around. Our secret plan was to fly over there when temps here get too chilly (Novemberish) and get back again at spring (April-May) once we´re retired. My wife,especially, doesn´t much care about the winter – which is weird since she´s from Austria, the Alps Country.
I don’t think you have to look hard to find stupidity anywhere in the world at this point. 😯 Right at the moment you are dependent on Obama if you don’t have any money here and that is very bad. He is the welfare/handout and lying King! Obamacare, Obamaphones, and even Obama debit cards. The folks who elected him tend to like that until they always run out of other peoples money and then the party really ends badly.

Our famous saying is “I love my country but I fear my government”. Comparatively speaking we have really had it made over here for a very long time with the best of everything and unlimited opportunity for everyone. Ying Yang (Herr Obama) helps us remember, though, that it is a constant struggle to keep the dream alive. He is a bit of a threat to our way of life but the country is very strong and he is slipping under the pressure of his failed policies. 🙂
