Thanks for the welcome guys. I'm pretty new to the air gun thing, past few months. It seems the bug hit me hard too, even if I am a girl, LOL. I have a long history with firearms. I started pretty young. My dad got me a Daisy BB gun when I was 10, and then had me pheasant hunting with him @ 12. He bought me a Mossberg 20ga. I spent a lot of my youth enjoying being outdoors with my dad. My enthusiasm for shooting continued throughout my life. I have always been involved in target shooting and still own a fair number of "smokepoles." I was involved in Cowboy Action shooting, SASS for a few years.
I got into air guns a few months ago as a result of needing to cope with a pest control problem. I had a Crossman 760 that i had owned for years, but that gun, as you all know, was not up to the task. My first "real" airgun was a Quest 1000. I was so pleased with it and its performance that I did a bunch of research, got really enthused. Now it seems things have snowballed! I even sold a few of my "Cow Girl" smoke guns to buy a couple of the nice German pieces I have.
The current stable, (aresnal, quiver?): RWS 34 Panther .22, RWS 36 .177, HW 30 .177, Quest 1000 .177, Beeman (Norica) GH 950 .22, Beeman (Chinese) GS650 .177.
This passtime is way too much fun! I can shoot pretty much anytime, not the production to go to a range that shooting powder guns is. Like so many neophytes I have found that shooting precison air guns is very demanding, and is a great way to keep one's skills sharp. Gosh, my "magnum springers" really test my skills!
Sorry for the long winded post. I just wanted thank you all for the warm welcome. You seem like a really great bunch of people.
