break-barrels are my thang.

sometimes co2, mostly in pistols.

 

[Andy54Hawken]

My most commonly used airgun was a Daisy "Buzz Barton" Special model circa late 1930's.
It shot well...and I taught my daughter to shoot with it , till she went to a .22 rifle.

I just sold it this weekend to a friend , so he can give it to his grandson.
Nice to see , it will continue to have a working life as a both a teaching rifle and a fun shooter.

Now I am tempted to get a air rifle for myself...some sort of .22 break barrel spring piston type...
that I can plink with and hunt with ( Small Game like grouse and rabbits ) , if that ever becomes legal to so , here in Washington.

I use a Gamo Whisper II to shoot rats below my bird feeders. The youth model to boot. Got three last week.

You keep plugging those politicians and they're going to get mad.

I spent some time with my Umarex Gautlet .177 PCP this past weekend in my 25-yard backdoor range. It keeps me qualified and saves me a run to a rifle range.

When I lived on acreage 250 pellets in a day was normal. Really kept me proficient. Nice.

Was less expensive than .22 or paintball. My folks let me shoot in the house down the length into a trap. Also had the Speer training rounds for the .38 in the garage.

Anyone know of a good Benjamin service outlet? I would like to get my Father's .22 pump bolt action serviced as a gift. It's the old .22 from the early '60's. Used so much the braising from barrel to lower broke. Thanks.

I've had good experiences with MAC 1, don't know if he works on Benjamin these days.

Or you may try these guys, I have no experience with this one, however they are local to you.

Thanks, I see what they can do once my folks are back and can send a picture of the piece.

a year later and about all i still use are break-barrels. sometimes co2.

snip from my instagram page of a few i've used recently...

 

[BadNewsBeeman]

I like to jump around my collection, but primarily I shoot springers. My Diana 48 in particular.

 

[bivy53]

I have one springer, two pumps, and two pcp's. Mostly just shoot the pcp's anymore. I do crack out the others from time to time. The pcp's are just stinking addictive.

 

[foxmeadow]

A bb clone of my M&P full size, used for draw, presentation, and first shot accuracy reps.

We have 3 Crossman pumpers around the place for plinking. The grown kids like them...

 

[SnoValley]

I like to restore old airguns so I have a few to choose from. The Crosman co2 rifles and pistols are most used for pesting and plinking. The more modern PCP are more powerful and better for longer range rats. I enjoy them all.

My "around the house " go-to is an Evanix ar6k pcp, 22cal. Great squirrel and pester. My AEA Varmint, 22cal. Delivers 50fpe with amazing accuracy. My AEA 22cal carbine is my truck gun. Lastly, my Wildcat 25cal mk3 at 64fpe takes care of all the rest of my needs. PCPs for me. 35yds with AEA Varmint. Group on the left is 5 shots with 23gr. .217 Impulse slugs. Group on the right is 5 shots with 23gr. .217 Zans. The target squares are 1". Impressive results imo. Bill and Addi.
