Hey everybody... Remember me? Heh....
I got stretched thin on free time trying to finish up a degree and work full time (at the same time), and dropped off of forum life for a while.
I've gotten my workload under control and hope to be back to surfing and moderating the forums again. I'll try to pitch in more with the moderating, too...
I probably won't be submitting any new cannons anytime soon, although I may post some plans and pictures. Most of my free time/cash is going into "real guns"; I've gotten into IDPA competition shooting lately.
Geez, I've missed a lot:

I'm not even going to TRY.
Somebody tell me about the important stuff I've missed.
Any new contests?
Any new piston-valve hybrids, or any new "technological developments" ?
Peace,
Pete Zaria. |

I kind of left just after the big contest where Clyde's GB semiauto won, JSR's super small penu pen gun was really popular, and somebody was prototyping a piston valve hybrid.

You know, posting a link with your awesome bragging rights would be helpful

JSR made a similar amount of semi-auto/full-auto prototypes... And that's about it. 
The only contest you did miss, was run by clide, called 'The Best Shot Contest' simply make a video of your single favourite damage shot from your spudgun.
That was our first proper 'user run' contest, quite successful, prize was a copy of HL2 and about $10 in donations. |

Yeah I would suggest looking at them, some great designs to give you some ideas. I'm sure JSR did get atleast one of them working

Damn long time no see. You haven't missed much, really the main things are the contest and someone pm pcguy and being an idiot and some other stuff related to that. Other then that its been kinda laid back (except for the newbs).
Anyways, glad you're back |
