Dave,
Nothing wrong witha range toy! You have to run the brush down the bore every 7 shots or so to clean the contacts but i have gone 10 without running it down. I also agree with you on not worrying about the electronics failing but here in VA to be considered unloaded the battery must be removed and it is hidden in the grip; requires two screw removal. I sure don't want to be messing around with them 20 feet up a tree in the dark. I can hear them, the grip cap or the screwdriver falling already!
