Lets say you just went on the wheel of fortune, and you won $1,673. (random number) what gun would you get? You can get any airgun in the world. Within the price range of course. Lets say you have never bought an airgun before in your life, so you dont have any. You live in the country, where no one cares how loud you are, so that doesnt matter. What would you get?
I think id get an HW-100. Oh yeah. So what would you get?
-
Daystate Huntsman Classic.

-
I'd get another TX200. The rest would go to the Boss.
-
theoben eliminator of course!!
-
FWB P70 FT, or a USFT Hunter.
-
Thoeben Eliminator in .22 cal. w/Bushnell 4200 8x32x40....I wouldn't even want to shoot it, I'd just hold and fondle her..
-
Hmmmm.....
1. A Mac1 Steroid Sheridan rocker safety Silver Streak
2. An R7
3. A Discovery
-
That might just cover a Mac1 USFT... http://www.mac1airgun.com/usft.htm (http://www.mac1airgun.com/usft.htm)

I'm with Graham on this one: Daystate Huntsman Classic in .22 caliber.
-
The FWB P73 is a fine choice . . . for almost $3000 new.
The AA S410 ERB XTRA walnut, thumbhole comes in within budget, even with a new scuba tank, is available in .22, and is a 10-shot repeater. Fine rifle.
But me? I would order up a CZ 453 Varmint, American, w/ walnut stock and single set trigger in cal .17 HMR and still have over $1000 left for a really nice scope and some ammo. Oops, but that's not an air rifle.
-
Well for fun, I think I would buy an FX Revolution from AOA :D Tony.
-
$1,673. (random number)
-
Whiscombe!.....definately!.....any model! :)
-
One of the FX rifles. God! I wanna buy one so bad! Revolution would be cool!
....and if something extra remains- two spare Airforce tanks for my Condor.
-
DayState Air Ranger.....with 50mm scope with sidewheel AO knob.
-
Now Stanley you have to stay within your budget. That's almost twice what you can spend. That is my ultimate air gun! Still saving........................P
-
Well, if you want the ultimate Daystate, you could just about get an Airwolf.

-
DayState Air Wolf would've been my 2nd choice.....I think that's the one that comes with all the electronic chips inside it. I try to stay from electronic stuff...more stuff to break down....
-
I thing is for sure, better keep it out of the rain. LOL I remember when cams came out on bows, I bought the first one that had four cams. Everybody laughed. Look at them now and I have the latest Mathews. I think air guns are the same. Mechanically I don't think you can improve much more, however electronically can improve a great deal more. Springers will improve more too but no big leaps in technology. That's my 50 cents. P

The Daystate rifles are amazing, as are those by Evanix, Falcon, Theoben...
I think I'd buy a very nice springer, like the TX200 III, with a walnut stock and spend the leftover $$ on nice optics and lots of pellets. Ask me again tomorrow; it'll likely change.
