Okay fellas,
I finally got to use my new sand bag filler tool from John @ 21stcenturyshooting today and it worked GREAT!!
this is the tool I am referring to,...http://www.21stcenturyshooting.com/Sand_Bag_Filler.php
If you fill your own bags this tool is what you have been waiting for and well worth the money.
Now I was watching a Lee Marvin spaghetti western so I wasn't near as fast at filling it as I could have been, it took me twenty minutes on the nose but I had to stop to watch the big fight in the cat house and listen to my wife belly ache at me about spilling sand in my chair, I told her I wasn't going to spill any and to go back to playing on face book and leave me alone!! she informed me that's what I told her last time I filled a bag in the house, and she spent a week getting all the sand from the couch :
Well I didn't spill a drop, I filled a Protektor(14B.5CDSDBB) Deluxe Cordura Mid-Ear Rear Bag first, I got almost four full bottles of sand in it and as close as I can weigh it on the bathroom scales it weighs 9.6 lbs. then I filled a protektor (13) Rabbit Ear Rear Bag, there was another good fight on the Lee Marvin movie but I stuck to business and spent only a little over ten minutes filling this bag, I got it so tight I am surprised the stitching didn't come loose,it was to tight so I wondered if you can put sand in with it can you remove sand with it?...yes you can, didn't spill a drop, I am very impressed and like this new tool John has produced it's $19.99 I believe and the Forster kwik fill funnel is $13.99 for the $6 bucks it's well worth it, its fast,clean and easy to use. Packing it tight is easier then any other method I have use so far, with the stainless steel tube it puts sand in the bag just like the funnel but as the bag starts to get full you are sliding the tube in and out in and out of the bag ( not leaving the fill spout ) when the resistance becomes hard just grab the tool and push hard it's like a piston and drives the sand in further in and out a few more times and slam it in again, you can literally make it as tight as you want it. If you fill your own bags I highly recommend it, if you read this post John, thanks for another great tool!!
