Tuxedo Charlie and the Benjamin Armada

Charles told me the photo needed his presence.

This is what happens when you try to take photos in the presence of a cat who knows that the whole thing is put on for his benefit. His name is Charles and he is named for his Charlie Chaplin mustache.

Competition Machine, Inc. Space gun Butt stock

Dave's new butt stock form Competition Machine, Inc.

When we last saw Arimo Dave’s .25 Armada space gun, he had the front and rear sight attached, but was shooting with the stock butt stock. http://blueflaxairguns.blogspot.com/2015/07/benjamin-armada-project-rifle.html I found this “globally sourced” butt stock to be more useful than I thought it would be, but Dave wanted to duplicate his .223 space gun. Here it is.


The butt stock is from Competition Machine, Inc. www.gotxring.com The folks there brought our attention to their new logo. They have been known as Competition Shooting Stuff.


You can see that it is adjustable for length, drop and weight, but there is more. The cheekpiece is drilled off center and rotates around the buffer tube to 12 positions where it is held in place by a spring loaded detent. A very nice feature.


Dave reports that his spacey Armada (que the Imperial March from Star Wars) is about a pound lighter than his .223 but that the balance point is nearly the same.

Neet air rifle, Dave.
