Whatcha doin' with those airguns today?

[Alexx1401]

got a DOA co2 pistol.... thought i'd snag a pic of the pair before i send the defunct one back.

nice little plinker, sure hated waiting another couple weeks, but Daisy/Gamo folks do have great service in my limited experience.

anyway, a little posing before packing...

They do make a lot of them now that look like a good home trainer for different pistols.

When I got started into airguns, someone warned me this day might happen. #tagsguild #backyardplinking



Three of them are "keepers". But not QUITE ready to sell the others yet.

Anyone around knows what the weather's like today. So a little indoor plinking it is. Decided to poser 'er for a pic too.

recoil pads on a little airgun, i know, i know. But the extra length-of-pull is nice. Time will tell how long it lasts, they're about 10 bucks each.

I'm definitely shooting mine.

How does that help you? Normally I hear shorter but unless you have a longer arm span....

My daughter had her first practice today with her LG400 (Walther) at the Junior Olympics here in Michigan. This is her first time qualifying for them, she's also shooting in smallbore this week! We're representing Oregon! she just turned 14 last week and is shooting as a J3.

let's me relax the shoulder a bit, not need to push it forward just to rest on the buttpad.

ASG's CZ P-09 clone. 16-round mag .177 co2 pellet pistol.


Nice, full-size pistol for those of us with XL hands.

Shooting my youth model Gamo today. Easier than setting a rat trap.

Bought a cheap case to keep the dust off. Lookin' handsome!

Looking at the FX rifles ...

 

[Frank RW]

scope added to the XS60C tonight... oh wait... this morning.

 

[Frank RW]

changed my mind, decided on a different sight. plan on using this one mostly 10M.

so far, so good.

 

[Frank RW]

next up.

taking advantage of all the neighbors off to the beach or whatever and this perfect mid-80s co2 weather.




EDIT:
a bit later...

three mags of .22 fun right there. six x8 rounds so far from one co2. gonna try a few more. the chaser does seem to offer quite a few shots per canister.



EDIT 2:
A couple hours later, decided the front sight can go away.

 

[Frank RW]

and how it is at the moment. meet my Diana Chaserstein....

 

[Dinglenutz]

I'm presently looking at the FX Impact M3 and the FX Maverick rifles, 700mm barrels, 590 (?) cc CF reservoirs, 22 cal. They are not the least costly options in the market but they do seem to have a good reputation. I love the claim that they can shoot a LOT on a charge, for one thing.

What would anyone here knowledgeable in the world of airguns see as the differences between them, outside the obvious?

What would be other, possibly better, options?
