1) Crosman Custom 2300, 14" .22, Ricks Camo grips. Shoots sooo smooth and accurate it's like I think about it and there's a dead plastic army man across the yard...the puff of CO2 is pretty cool too:)
2) RWS Model92 (not the youth version(slightly longer stock(i think) and has a buttplate), .177, no mods, no scope. Smooth, little recoil, easy to cock(21 lbs), and almost as accurate as the Crosman(but not as pretty).
3) Fast Deer.177, with home tune, refinished stock(blonde) and cheapo 4x20 scope. Ugly, but relatively smooth cocking, bounces a bit, really only like it because of the time I spent tweaking it, fun for killing cans at 15 yards or so.
4) XS B30 .22, light home tune, no other mods, 6x24x50 China AOE scope. Really only like this thing for the way it looks, like you could beat a bear to death with it and not a shot fired. Scope is nice for bird watching, but the thing bounces so much and weighs so much, by the time I'd get a shot off I'd more than likely injure the bird with a poorly placed shot. I've read that ALOT of people love this model to death, but for my smallish backyard it's WAAAY too much. If I were a better shot, and had much more room I think I could grow to love this thing too, but for now it rarely gets shot because all the "one hole groups" I get with it are "Oops, there's ONE more hole in my pellet trap!", and, "Oops, there's ONE more hole next to the last hole in my pellet trap". May post this one on the classifieds if I ever get around to taking some pics of it. Not sure what the resale value is for huge Chinese AG's.
Not on the list would have to be the two AG's I no longer own. Not in any "favorite" order.
My old Daisy model 880 circa 1985 or so, that I got for xmas the same year...would be more of a "memory favorite" than an actual favorite for the time I spent stalking cans and evil attack plastic army men as a youth. This was an upgrade from the model below.
And my old Daisy springer bbgun, don't know the model, just dropped a bb down the barrel, cocked it, aimed, fired....think a relative may still have this somewhere in storage, will investigate the actual model# later...maybe someone here has some idea from the description? Peep sight on the rear, wood stock, can't remember if there even was a forearm. Smallish, like a Red Ryder, but no place to add bb's except one at a time down the barrel. This was my first air rifle ever, and actually the first "anything" I ever shot (unless you count the bb I swallowed when I was 5).
