Back in May of 2016 I posted with a note of surprise that I had charged a Powerline 15XT (sort of a Colt Officer Model I used for practice for a bit for carrying an Officer's Model) a month earlier and was shocked it was still holding a charge. I posted again in I believe August that it was still going.

Well one of the cats knocked it from its place near the back door into a dark and hidden area where it lay for the last few months. Actually the removable grip panel is somewhere as yet un found I suspect under a book case.

Took it out as I went to feed the horses this AM and it still has pressure. From about 12 feet I shot a Diet Rite Cola can....a full unopened one.... and the BB was driven through both sides of the can and soda within. I fired a dozen more shots before reloading and putting the gun in a more secure (cat proof) place.

The CO 2 is a Crossman powerlet and is still going strong. Now will it make it to April and a full year?

Only the Shadow knows.
