Have been shown that the majority of us have more than 1 air rifle or air pistol.
In my case enjoy a lot with a super strake .177, style, comfort and power. I have a lot a problem with it,
3 broken springs but I have a lot of fun with that rifle than my other expensive rifles that I own.
Which one is your L.O.V.E.R. to shot and have fun????

I would have to say my favorite by far is my Gamo Hunter with Nitro piston, GRT 3 trigger and Leapers Tactedge scope. It is pinpoint accurate and has very good power from a .177. I love to shoot it.
-
My favorite for just shooting around is my Whisper. It was the first adult air gun I bought and is deadly accurate. It has a nice Leapers AO scope on it and the only reason it misses is because of me! I also like it for scouting trips into the woods since it weighs so little.
Right now though, I am infatuated with my TF 99. I've never owned an underlever gun before and I really like shooting it.

i would have to say that all mine r tuned and accurate comfortable due to medium size hand and i dont just buy any airrifle but my rws350m and cometa r excellent and the b lines from mike mileck ,however the qb78d.22 r also great so u see mine r all good ..i love all mine that i fined it hard to sell even when things r rough ,u dont want to regret selling a airrifle that you shoot well.I bought my cometa for much less than for what they have them from joe/cuz whom is one of the good guys i met here sold me most of my airrifles and use to bring them to me now they r 325 and up and i tell u no lie they r excellent out the box.many of the older people here bought him out ...jorge

My old Crosman 1400.

I like to shoot in 2 different catagories. out to 40 yds and 40-100 yds. to 40 yds my rws34 and ruger blackhawk are my favorites I like the weight and the quick thud they give. Long range I love my QB362 and tf99. they are heavy and underlever and have amazing long range accuracy. Very fun bench rifles, don't know if i would want to carry them around hunting though. Some day I would like a rws48, 52, or 460 I bet they would be a treat to shoot, I like those fixed barrel guns.
-
Right now I would have to say I like my MM tuned B 26. Smooth and very accurate. Can't wait to get a good .22 for hunting then I will have to carry one under each arm :D
-
Crossman Nitro with Charlie's custom trigger and Leapers 3-12x44MM Scope is my fav....even though not the most accurate. It's just sooooooo smooth with a kick. When I can't hit with the Nitro, I pick up the Marauder to regain my confidence that it's the rifle and not me that's the problem....

My TX200HC all the way. Its the go to rifle for the ultimate one shot one kill.
-
Tough question, I have so many that I really just love to sit down and shoot. That being said though,,,, if I had to chose just one I'd pick my .177 and .22 caliber Beeman R-9 Goldfingers. I know, that's 2 rifles, but to me except for the caliber they're one in the same :)

I would have to say my HW-30 !
It's just plain GREAT FUN TO SHOOT !!!!
But I have been shooting my HW-50 a lot lately, it has more power, and feels better in my arms :o Real nice balance with that Gene Curtis Shroud on it !!!! Cuts down on the muzzle jump !!
Maybe I need a shroud on my HW-30 !!!

Gee... I like my Cometa RWS94 quite a bit. I also find myself shooting the P3 pistolas oftenas anything, just for something to do outside. Those two get a lot of air time.
-
For Hunting,..... my B-28A. For serious "target plinking" ,....my .22 Beeman RX-2 with the Theoben HE rammed piston!!!! tjk
-
I love them all but my favorite is my Paul Watts tuned R1 in 22 cal. It is amazing very smooth and as accurate as an airgun can be one ragged hole groups at 25 yards all day long.Its also the gun i would never part with youd have to kill me to get it.

Dang, do I really have to choose..:)
-
Easy, that would be my 1965 Sheridan Blue Streak. Style and grace, accuracy and power.
-
My Dad's 1970-something Crosman 760. I can hit a bottle cap at ten yards everytime with those open sights. Just talking about it makes
me want to go pump that bad boy up!
-
Hey, Dave, question about that RWS94... How many shots you have through? I picked up a 'new' old-style Cometa Fenix that was boxed up in somebody's closet and got cleared out in an estate sale. It is exactly the same gun and only have about 30 rounds through... Not nearly as accurate at this point as my Cometa Fusion, but also not broken in and untuned. I have high expectations for the gun...but I think it might need a helping hand -- or a lot more shots through.
As far as the topic of this thread...Loved my original TF89. Hated my RWS350. Was astounded by the Cometa Fusion... and that's the one.

I actually have twoRWS94s, an OK one and a nicer one :-)
The first had a weak spring, for which I finally obtained a replacement. This was a guy's primary hunting gun for a long time, and is very well used, plenty of Ohio woods battle scars, but not exactly a beater. It was shooting in the low 600s when I gotit. Itshot like a "de-tuned" gun and was beautifully accurate and pleasant to shoot, more like shooting a Diana 24. I have several hundred shots but I would say the last guy had thousands through it. I have a new spring now and shoot it with the iron sights.
My nicer one has better wood and shoots hard. It has a Centerpoint now but I should change it out for another Hawke to improve weight and balance. This is the one on standby duty. I have a few hundred pellets through it, and no idea how many the previous owner had.

My Benji 397 is my favorite.
-
I`m like Gene....I don`t want to choose and risk offending my other ladies. Off a rest most of my springers are accurate out to 30 yards...but if shooting off-hand I would choose my Crosman Storm XT and Gamo Viper. In the PCP department I would choose my FX Cyclone just because she shoots .177 pelllets....which is less expensive than the .22s.
-
I like my old Benjamin 397 most. Whatever is in the peep sight usually soon has a 4.5mm hole in it. I've had some model of pump up Benjamin for the last 30 years and try as I might I just can't shoot a springer anywhere near as accurately as the Benjamin pumper.

(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif)Gerald, you are asking a very tough question. I enjoy all of my AG's, even ones that I do not own. Air Arms Pro Sport walnut stocked, B 40, HW97K, B 26-2 low comb, I dream about these. The one that I truly love is my Wife.......Shoot Safe and Enjoy.....Bill(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)

It's the one I enjoy the most. On my second spring now... and who knows how many thousands of rounds.
