Hello from the Sunny Okanagan

#1 Post by I. M. Gadget »

Hi All
I suppose you could say I'm returning to the sport....
I got my first air rifle back in 1970, a Daisy BB gun that I would take with me on walks with my Grampa (he carried the 12ga). I had a couple Crosman pellet guns back then as well that took every bit of strength I had to cock.
Fast forward to about a year ago and some pesky pests moving into the neighbourhood and I'm back. I bought a couple different springers but was disappointed with the consistency. So after some research I picked up an AA S510 that is now accompanying me when I go hunting as my grouse gun. And now an FX Royale 500 added to the family and here I am....

Hello, welcome.
I've always wondered what it's like in the Okanagan valley. I live in the far end of Southern West Ontario and it's pretty warm here but can get quite humid.
I also have a modified AAs510 that I enjoy very much.

Howdy ! And welcome
I'd say howdy from sunny Kamloops BC... but pretty sure you have the same weather as us right now... Image

You have a AA S510 and a new FX Royale 500. Very Nice ! I'd ask which one you like better but I think I know the answer...

Just watch'n a few vids on the FX Crown...Wow ! Image

Might see it in Canada in the New year.
