Newb saying Hi
« on: August 04, 2009, 09:38:05 AM »
Hey everyone. My name's Steve. I've got a Gamo Hunter 220 that's maybe 4 years old. I've got a Shadow stock, hooded front sight, and a GTR III trigger on their way right now and I'm really looking forward to working on the gun a bit. My other air rifle is a 1967 Sheridan Blue Streak. Old Faithful. My father purchased this one brand new and I sort of adopted it as my own almost ten years ago.

I'm 24, and I'm from Long Island, NY. Just stumbled onto the forum today and was pleased to see a nice Gamo section with so many members. Ought to be a good place to hang out. Thanks, have a great one. Happy Shooting.

No, that's not it. A while back Connecticut decided it needed some oversized barrier beach and came up with this fish-shaped blob. 7.5 million people can't be wrong! Oh wait... nevermind - they can.
