Hello, Ron from Oregon here. AKA-Airjunki. I know that to many of you guys here on this forum airguns are not really your bag. That's fine, there are many things I am not into also! Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy powder burners "Very Much!" I guess that some part of me from my childhood has just never left me! I love many things about airguns. They are easy on the ears, light to no recoil, very clean w/ easy maint. , ammo is inexpensive etc. But most of all I can shoot them where I "cannot" shoot a firearm! I wish I could include in the list that they were inexpensive but that is far from the truth. I actually just ordered this one: http://www.airgunsofarizona.com/FX%20Monsoon.html and as you can see it costs more than many a damn good powder burning rifle! But it's my thing! I just love these new PCP's! (pre-charged pneumatics's) They have definitely taken airgunning to a higher level. They cannot do everything a rimfire can in the small game hunting field but they come close in many areas. And most importantly as I stated earlier, they can be used in areas where firearms are strongly discouraged or prohibited. And in todays liberal playing field, that means more hunting for me! I just wanted to share what I am all about with you guys here since I have been lurking on your site here for some time now. I live in Oregon and enjoy outdoor sports of various types but my main passion is varminting and predator calling. I have also hunted big game like Elk, Deer and Bear along with fishing, boating, camping and hiking but with a family now my time has become very limited. Anyway's, I'm happy to see an air gun section on your forum & I am glad to be here! Best, Ron.

Excellent gun and insight into airgunning. Exactly how I feel. I have no airgun stuff posted here but have a bunch of pics one day I'll post. I own an Air Arms Pro-Elite and love squirrel hunting with it as opposed to 12 ga or .22
