Honesty, if you can't be trusted with a firearm...why do you think you ought to own an airgun???? I'm confused... :roll:

Hey men, I'm 46 and into airguns mainly the last 5 years with a lifelong interest in shooting. Dreamt of being a gunsmith before our Liberals goosed us and now turn my interests to airgunning.
Love my Quest and my PCPs.

I'm 41 years young. Airgunning has been a hobby of mine for about 12-14 years. My interest started light but grew with the years. Prior to that I shot mainly powder burners with a very light interest in airguns. I have spent time in most shooting sports: smallbore, benchrest, varmint rifles, shotgunning clays, cast bullets, informal bullseye handgunning, competitive PPC, and muzzleloading. These days I only shoot airguns.

I compramized and got a Kawasaki Vulcan Meanstreak. 1500cc cruiser, goes like a bat out of hell, and looks great to! The biggest difference is the price; 50% of the cost of a nice Harley. Keeps me in house, airguns, and bike! And the wife stays happy too!

I'm 45 at the beginning of Nov. and have enjoyed hunting since before my teens with my dad in Sask. back when you got a Buck tag and Doe tag for $13. Have been into air for almost that long but not very serious until the last few years.

Nice job on the profit you made on those bikes! Resale is one of the many benifets to buying the real deal. I rode mine up to Illingworth's a few times this summer, it's the best way to go on a pellet run!

I.m 54 , and have been hooked on airguns since I was 9 ( Slavia 618 ) , my first Hi end A/G was an LP53 when I was 14 . I get off od the engineering and design of the high end stuff . I like the low cost of ammo , and the ability to use almost anywhere .

I am 35, My first pellet gun was a Crosman MKII my uncle gave me when I was about 10. Then at 16, I switched to firearms . I have collected about everything from Antique , military, pistols , revolvers, and Dewats. when the new gun law came out I got rid of all but one dewat, and came back to my first love (airguns) when I saw the Baikal MP-654K on the web, I wanted one "BAD" and since, I WANT THEM ALL !!!
