    I have a similar one but much newer. Probably the late 90's . Mine uses those disposable screw in propane tanks.

    The cylinder in front must be your fuel tank. Whats in it ? 

     

    My son and his buddies would use it for tailgating at the Patriots games

    This brewery in Woodstock VT was 10 miles from where I lived at Killington . Now it appears there are more breweries than there are convenience stores around every corner here in Southern NH. And from the amount of different ale's IPA's and beers you guys post it must be the same in NY.

    Blame your scumbag Mayor and Governor for that . Tons of stores and restaurants are closing up shop not because of Covid-19 , but because of your riots , arsonists , Antifa , and the scumbag BLM anarchist group BLM thats funded by George Soro's phony Open Society organization .

    Soros made a statement a couple years ago " The Goal For The Rest Of My Life Is To Take Down The United States By Any Means Possible "  He is one of Bidens buddies along with Bill and Hillary Clinton . Donated millions to them all. he also financed every one of the scumbag Democrats that got voted into Virginia including the Gov and lieutenant Gov . Soros funded 80 percent of the campaign for the District Attorney who ordered the search warrant of the couple that stood their ground in Missouri . Yet she did nothing about the protesters carrying AR 15's who broke into the private community. There are many many more quack liberals he funded on both the Federal and State level so they can vote to either take your rights away or make up their own interpretation of the law .

    Biden is made in America and bought and paid for by China. Allowing 600 billion dollars worth of  intellectual property of US companies to be stolen by China while Obama and Biden looked the other way and hundreds of thousands of American manufacturing jobs lost to China. Obama and Biden famous words " Those jobs Are never Coming Back ".  In the meantime as VP of the United States Biden and his son Hunter take  take a trip to China on Air Force 2 and secure themselves a 1.5 billion dollar investment into their own personal pockets . Oh and lets not forget the famous 83,000 a month to Hunter from the Ukraine company for being on their board of directors even though he doesn't have a clue how to pump gas in his own car.

    In 3 1/2 years Trump has gotten back  750,000 manufacturing jobs back to the USA from Mexico and China .  And you want to give Biden credit for the 20 people he hired to make signs ? 

    Funny , my Trump hat says made in USA and so does my lawn sign . Another phony Lib  propaganda statement.. Why dont you just go crawl back into the mud hole that you came from.

    But according to Cuomo thats not real food .

    Don't tell the radical Libs today is Chicken Day . They will protest and demand that 25 million chickens be released and set free from their cages.

     I grabbed some powerbelts but I guess they're not well thought of.

     

    There are so many different opinions on every product out there . I have my own from using powerbelts .

    I found there is a big difference between the aero tip and the hollow point . I thought they were the same bullet with the hollow point only missing the plastic tip but they are not.  I have one encore that  I use the 245 grain and another I use the 295 grain. The aero tips and the hollow points shoot the same . Both very accurate.  But I only use the hollow points now. I found the aero tips  expand very little and sometimes none at all. The hollow points  expand very nice and make a big wound channel and exit hole.  Great knock down power on both the 245 and the 295 grain. I use 2 50 grain  Hodgdon Pyrodex . For primers I use the triple7 or the Winchester 209 shotgun primers and found no difference.

    So much has been made of the BH209 powder being so clean and can fire 15-20 rounds before needing a scrub . But Im not firing 15 shots in the woods . The pyrodex is good for about 5 shots although I have fired 8 rounds to see how bad the accuracy suffers . It starts to go off an inch or 2 after 5 shots. But I only bring 5 shots with me hunting. If BH 209 made a pellet I would definitely try it . But I'm not going back to pouring powder down the barrel . The power belts and the pellets just make it so easy and fast to reload out in the field.

    The best bullet I have used is the Hornady 240 grain XTP hollow point with the green sabot. By far the most consistant accuracy keeping 1 inch groups . Devastating internal damage with an exit hole the size of a silver dollar.. I also hear the new Barns bullet is fantastic.

    I go by the old saying " If It Aint Broke Dont Fix It "

    But some may argue because Im 63 that " You Cant Teach An Old Dog New Tricks "

    And they would be right !  :rofl:

    Decent shoot this morning. Killed 150. Could have done much better but my gun refused to cycle shells after the first few flocks. Very frustrating. Sent all 3 new Browning a5s  Back for repairs this winter and. Ow only 2 of the 3 are cycling properly. 

    GD , 1st of all ,  I am not familiar with the A 5's new inertia recoil system . But I do own 12 Belgium Browning A5's and two fairly new Browning Silver Sluggers . I believe my two Silver Sluggers have the same system as your A5's .   When you say not cycling properly , do you mean its not loading the next shell because it gets stuck half way in the chamber ? I had that problem with my 12ga Slugger right out of the box. But it had nothing to do with the inertia system . I called Browning and they told me to call the authorized repair shop near me. I fixed the problem in 5 min while talking to them on the phone and it works perfectly now.

    This might be an assembly problem . Take the forearm off . Then take the plastic cylinder plug off the shell cylinder. Tip the gun down to slide out the cylinder spring . At the end of it there is a plastic cap.  Make sure the cap is set over the end of the spring evenly . My problem was the cap was installed uneven over the end of the spring and dragging inside the cylinder not allowing the full force of the spring to push the next shell into the chamber. Took 5 min to do this and my gun has cycled perfectly since. If nothing else this will eliminate the cylinder spring cap as a possible cause.  When putting the spring back in , do it with the gun tipped downward until the spring is all the way in.

    The repair shop told me this is not an uncommon problem . It can happen by the assembly worker or someone installing a duck plug in the cylinder allowing the spring to pop off the spring cap inside the cylinder.  Just a thought you might want to try.
