However, when I PM you and hit “SEND” nothing happens.

Actually, I had been communicating with DaBinChe on many of his youtube vids in the past as well as the veteran vids. I was quite sure he stated that he adjusted the Standard to 55. I may be wrong. However, that is how I remember the vid. Ergo, my initial question. I would expect the Standard to be quieter…Read more

Dear Cros…

PCP sound is a very relative thing. What you hear depends on your location in relation to the source of sound, ambient noise, age, health, hearing acuity, brain function, and personal experience of connecting certain tones and frequencies.

I returned the business side of the Short and got a nice replacement. It tested out 2 fpe highe and 10 fps faster, while having an improved SD.

I’m working with Matt. I contacted him with pictures and he said it was a new gun. Also agreed for me to keep the stock and return the rest. All things working in the right direction. I’ll call him later.
