Went out to the range today to try some loads for a Gasser pistol. I nailed the sun shade and smashed it to smithereens! I didn't think of the recoil would make it shoot so high! Would any have a dead chrony and saved the pieces? They have been out of business for quite some time. I just need one but two would be great also. Send me a pm if you have the pieces. Best regards, the toolman.

After I shot my screens I saved the ends where it attached to the rods and bought a white plastic storage tub lid, cut it into pieces of appropriate size and attached the saved ends so it will still attach to the rods. Just to show how clever I am, I decided one day to see what the velocity was when a bullet reached a target-- so I set up my chrony behind a steel plate with the screens above the plate. First shot I hit one of the rods and that was the end of that (but the chrony survived).

I made my rods out of wooden dowels. Much easier to replace when I shot them.
