fight fire with fire Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Hi i'm a really keen airgunner i have 4 rifles and one pistol i was just wondering if their are any airgunners out ther and what guns do you have. Ihave 2 BSA rifles, one cheap chinese thing, one Crosman and a walther pistol.
saluterocket Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 I own a Gamo Hunter Maxima air rifle (.177/ 4.5mm) and a nicely modded Crosman 2240 (.22). Both are very fun to shoot.
fight fire with fire Posted February 16, 2007 Author Posted February 16, 2007 my Crosman is a 2260 my my BSA is a meteor (.22) and my walthers a CP88. I'm saving up for a BSA lightning XL .22.
fight fire with fire Posted February 16, 2007 Author Posted February 16, 2007 I haven't shot any wabbits or pwigeons yet i just plink! but my friend has a big field i'll shoot in (loads of wabbits pwigeons and mwagpies) i like the letter double u. and by the way i just got the part of nana the dog in peter pan.
fight fire with fire Posted February 16, 2007 Author Posted February 16, 2007 My friend recently got some horses in his field so if a pellet goes in one of 'em, f***. So i'll ask around a bit, or wait for the damn critters to come to me.
shadopyro Posted February 17, 2007 Posted February 17, 2007 I got 2 cheap chinese b2 carbines and a gamo semi auto something or other.Used to go shooting with a mate but havent done much in a long while simply due to the fact that its hard to find places where we can shoot without getting screwed by the law. One of these days, those rifles are waiting for me in the cupboard, scopes fixed and polised... Do you own land to go shoot on?
fight fire with fire Posted February 17, 2007 Author Posted February 17, 2007 I have a small garden with a few woodies, collarded doves and some crows, but my neighbours will call the police if they see me aiming a rifle at another animal. Henry
fight fire with fire Posted February 17, 2007 Author Posted February 17, 2007 I'm pretty sure you can still shoot collarded doves because there nests are full of ticks. I'm quite suprised that you are aloud to shoot Jays though i hardly ever see them around, and i'm a birdwatcher! And i would never shoot starlings or sparrows they're getting quite rare. I would mainly shoot rabbits, magpies and rats.
h0lx Posted February 17, 2007 Posted February 17, 2007 I also used to own an airgun, some old one(40 yrs or so), dunno, which model or manufacturer. It shot pretty good, (through 15 beercans in a row). I used it for shooting cardboard targets, never shot anything alive, because I just can't injure or kill an animal, something inhibits me from pulling the trigger.
fight fire with fire Posted February 19, 2007 Author Posted February 19, 2007 Nice picture. I hate foxes , quite a few round were i live but i agree a pellet from an air rifle wouldn't do shit, only if you got it in the eye with an FAC rifle.
