Hello from Montréal

#1 Post by Operator226 »

Hi guys,

I've been into airguns for 8 years now. Everything started with a spring action break-barrel Stoeger X5 chambered in .177 and a nice summer at a cottage! I was looking for something more interesting than airsoft and with better ballistics. I was not disappointed by airguns! Since then every trip at the cottage is an occasion to target shoot and plink tin cans. Over the years I've bought many kinds of air rifle and air pistols. I know about spring action break barrel rifle, spring action under lever rifle, co2 rifle and pistols, PCP. When I turned 18 I immediately got my PAL which opened the gates to a wide variety of more powerful and more expensive airguns.

From 16 to 19 year old I spent almost all my extra money into buying airguns, so in 3 years I've bought over 15 airguns going from the inexpensive Smith&Wesson M&P CO2 pistol to the over 1000$ AirArms S410 xtra-fac. I calmed myself and got more wise since that time, but I still use a lot of theses guns even though I am into firearms too.

If I have to think about my favorite airguns I would go for Sig Sauer P226 X-Five for pistols and AirArms S410 xtra-fac .22 for rifles. I use the Sig really often to practice combat shooting and I try to use the full potential of the AirArms to make good groups at farther and farther distances.

I have been into another forum back in the days but it wasn't Canada based so I though it was about time I register here.

I'll be happy to read your interesting content and try to contribute my best.

Regards

Arnaud
