While you’re waiting for your Matadors……..
I thought I would share with you how I coped waiting for my Matadors. It’s a loooong story with a lot to learn. I started this thread back in June 2011 while still waiting, – and oddly enough it became one of the most viewed threads on this forum.
This is how it started:
As it happens, I am the lucky owner of a serious harem of nice guns. And I frequently visit my summerplace on the coast down south in Norway, where weather is the only restriction to my shooting….
Summernights are nice and light with sunset around 22hrs….:
So yesterday I quit Oslo for a few weeks. Fed up with my loooongish waiting for ED and friends to deliver I took 11 members of my harem with me.
Here they are:
As some of you may know, I test and review guns for our Norwegian forum, and this time a comparison of springers is on the agenda….
So go ahead and name them, from left to right…….
And yes. There will be a more in depth test of Lelya 090 who has got new glasses for the occasion…….. 😉
Life is too short to sit put and wait……… 😀

As usual I am missing something…………. 😳
My fault I know, – but somebody help me please……… 😆

Sorry Ty,
I never was that good with math!
And, as a refined and educated Gentleman, I have two questions for you…if I was 69 yesterday, and I’m 69 years old, plus one day, today, doesn’t that technically make me “70”????
Kindest regards,
Uncle H 😯 😯 T
PS: For the less mathematically gifted forum members…a non-mathematical question: How is it possible that there is exactly enough news to fill a newspaper every single day?????
Ok, enough. Time for my Oxycontin…

Wow, they just get more beautiful over time!!! 😯 That stock is a sweet piece of wood!
Anyone want to buy one of my USFTs? 😯 I think I need an EdGun! 😆
Ty, I certainly hope that’s not your girlfriend’s back that gun and book is resting on!!! If so, I’ve got three words for you….”bikini wax”
That wood has exceptional grain. I’m on the R3 list, but not at the top. That could mean this March, or March of next year. Who knows? I’ll wait.

ps.interesting book in amazingly good shape.must be at least a 150yrs?
Didn’t I just reply to that ???? 😉
Thanks
Got them in November after a rather loooongish wait …. 😉
Color of wood: Changes with light conditions. Also I know what it looks like on my screen. It may look different on others’. Has to do with color temp/contrast/lightning on individual screens………
Cheers
Trygve in Oslo 😀
That darker wood on the stock looks great. I hope that’s the way all the new one are being made with this stock Did you just get it?
Cricket update:
Rest of the action received….. 😀
Still waiting for the wooden parts……..
In the meantime, – here’s another R3 tease for those who are on “the list” or contemplate joining:

PS: The book in the picture was written by my great great great great Grandfather. Handwritten and handcolored compendium about ballistics and weapons on sailships…….
Those were the days…….. 😉
Thanks TY…
If we didn’t have friends scattered around the world, we’d never learn anything.
