AIRGUNS AND AIR RIFLES

[trucker777]

Hi, What about adding an airguns and air rifles section on the forum homepage? For all things airgun

I would second that. It's a serious branch of the shooting hobby that has arrived, and it justifies having its own handful of electrons.

If it happened, I'd recommend creating a "Less Lethal" category instead. Airguns/spring loaded/tazers/pepper spray/etc.

Oh, and maybe include .25s as well.

Thanks I needed a laugh tonight.

My .45 PCP airgun has the same energy as a .45acp. Some are used for deer in places where hunting with an airgun is legal.

General firearms discussion! I don't think there would be enough activity to warrant a subforum utilize the tag system though so threads on the topic are easy to find

I agree with the airgun section idea. I have been shooting them for a number of years. Shooting break barrel airguns is more complex then people think. You must select the right pellet that works accurately in you gun....then there is break-in time before everything settles in, not to mention the proper hold.It's a nice option when you want to do some shooting, but don't have time to drive to the gun range. Also a good way to get rid of annoying pests on the property.

We should also add a subforum for Nerf guns.

So why not start a thread in the general firearms section, as suggested, and see how much interest it draws?

 

[trucker777]

Amen! My customized Crosman 2240 and 1322 are just as every bit important to me as any other gun in my collection.
Besides, they keep the skills sharp and are reasonably inexpensive and fun to shoot. While they may not be lethal except to certain pests, they certainly are not "toys"
And must be respected just like their big brothers.

It would be nice to have another propective place to find some of the older & vintage airgun stuff out there too. I know it's out there...

 

[trucker777]

Done. Poll included.

Okay i agree 100% with this
