I've been lurking and reading for quite a while and finally took the plunge.

This requires a commitment, however small, but it means I now feel like I belong.

I still have my first air rifle that I bought ( with my father at my side ) at Honest Ed's for $6.33.
No sales tax. I was 10. The sear is a little touchy but it can still spit lead.

Since then Hunting and Shooting have been pursued with passion and pleasure.
My shooting arsenal includes powder burners to air pistols- .300 Win Mag to .177.
Crossbows and recurves, slingshots... hell I skip stones

I've worked at LeBaron and Bass Pro when it opened (didn't like it)but now I work at Sail in Etobicoke part time on the weekends in the Hunting department.
Recent additions include a Benjamin Discovery, 2240, 2250 and a pumper. Air arsenal budget rapidly expanding into inflationary zone.

Glad to be here with like minded humans.

Stan

Welcome, Stan.

Hope you have friends with farms out in the countryside.
THAT would be a splendid situation.
Sometimes hard to stop accumulating, until you
reach your preferred branch of the sport - or not! lol
