BIGUN 1,314 #6 February 4, 2007 Well, that's one way to validate a hypothesis. Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mark 107 #8 February 4, 2007 Quote Is the Talon 1 reserve spring loaded? What an unusual question. Is there a beer riding on the answer? Sandy did build a rig with a pull-out reserve deployment, but that was more than 25 years ago. Long ago enough that I don't think you could even call it a pre-Talon.

I just wore it and pulled the handles on the ground to watch it...and then handled mess over to Paul Fries. Btw, you be jealous of my new container next time you see me...or if I can find someone near me with a digital camera. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
