Sure ya don't want another B50 Jon?  Mine is desperately seeking love and attention, and a trash compactor:)  

You know though, after your insisting that these can be good guns I have started to consider getting mine back on the bench for one more go around.  I have been inside that gun many, many times, but never found the phantom leak.  I have even submerged it under water, which revieled 3 leaks....fixed those, but then just when I thought it was licked....bloop!  The leak mine has is from around the valve.  I have replaced the o-ring 3 times, honed the air chamber, polished, etc....  followed the advice from some real good guys on another forum, which got me really close, but still.....bloop!  It will hold a charge for maybe 3-4 days, which isn't too bad I guess, although my Talon holds air forever so far.  After I got it to hold air for 3-4 days I started working on getting it dialed in for a good fill/power curve.  Then it started giving me fits of valve lock, which I thought was a bad gauge on my pump(possible overfill).  Changed the gauge and still valve lock.  Figured out a sweet spot in the fill that "sorta" works, but the gun will not group well at only 10 yards...I gave up!!!  This gun was brand new when after 200 or so shots the valve broke in half....yes, in half!  It has been nothing but a headache ever since.  I would light it on fire a la Jimi Hendrix if I hadn't spent $300 on it.  I was gonna send it to a B50 professional, but decided I had already wasted enough money on it.

Phew, I get a cold sweat everytime I think about that gun.....

Your other guns are real beauties, I admit I am a little jealous:)
