    EME 35

    Cool, I got a 70 NIB and I was wondering how this "cylinder coating stuff" was going to behave and I am not saying that's an issue. Jody and I have been tossing it back and forth a bit.

    DLE-111 Three Year Inspection & Overhaul

    DLE-111 Three Year Inspection & Overhaul

I do not know what the grade of the 111 cylinder hex head is but it should be 5 mm in size. Just make sure the threads are clean and dry and show no signs of stress (shiny...

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    Have not tried it but with the pipe and a 27x10 I bet it would be tame enough to practice low and slow and precision. The DA 120 and pro flow cans in mine make it tame or ballistic . Scares me back into reality.lol
