    Talon 6

    So... I just placed the order for my Talon 6. I spoke with Ed and Kent before doing so, and understand it's a special order, and going to take some time.

    I'm also going to hold off and try to avoid paying to have it shipped, so even when done, it may stay in Wichita until I'm down there, to pick it up.

    But when it's here, you can be there will be pictures.

    Congrads! You've been hinting about this for a bit now, for sure I will subscribe to yer build thread.

    I just started building my Talon 4 but wasnt sure whether to start a thread. Im keeping it by the book with no mods or deviations so makes for a bit of a boring thread.
    Took some pictures of the motor tube assembly in case I change my mind.

    "No" she says with a tone that means we're both in trouble.
