It Has Been A Long Time Since I Pressed The Order Button..:)
« on: December 09, 2007, 12:59:16 PM »


But I just had to do it..... It is the addiction in my soul.. hehe.... As of last night I pushed the Button at Midsouth Shooters on a Brand New Hammerli 850 .177.... A while back I started looking at the Hammerli air rifles and actually bought a Titan Springer which turned out to be one of the best low priced springers that I own. Then I the 850 got my attention and I posted something regarding information on this forum about the Hammerli 850. Then I found a the Hammerli 850 Forum and was run by one of our long time members. Roald. aka Silo..:) From that point on I have been reading about all the different mods etc. that can be done to them. But I just want a good Co2 air rifle that I can load up and shoot several times without having to put one pellet in at a time..:) That is a big plus with my FX Cyclone PCP with an 8 round clip. So I buy a couple extra clips for the 850 and can shoot without loading one at a time.. Anyway if Midsouth is not out of them and they ship like they normally do, I will have a new Hammerli 850 by Thursday..:)

Been along time, didn't you just hit that button a few days ago.:o Sometimes I wish I was single and didn't have a boss at home, but she has has taken good care of me since my back injury and I wouldn't trade her for the world.:) Congrats Gene.

LOL Mike, just being sarcastic..:) Ya I could not wait any longer. Especially with the price. $185.00 plus $5.88 shipping. Do not think Pyramid could beat that..:) So by next Thursday I will be the new owner of another Hammerli product. ..:) Gene

Ya Ed, if this air rifle turns out half as good as those guys on the Hammerli 850 forum say, I will be pleased. Just love the idea of an 8 round clip and semi automatic..:)
