Acknowledging tutors

For me that would be Mike (Centercut) he took me under his wing and I have learned a lot and my shooting has improved....He also got the wife involved., but he must like/help her with better information, because she kicks my A$$ now ....Then you have the entire team of Centercut who are a great group of people always willing to help and loan items out if you need them. Crap can't forget Bobby C, Tony T, and a few others. They have all made this sport so much fun!!!!!! And of course AGN for getting us all together.

All of you. Your mistakes and your accomplishments. I learn a little something.

For my M3 I watch Ernest Rowe videos and almost every thread about it on here

The knowledge and wisdom and generosity here exceeds that of many places in this world world. Thank you air gun nation for making a place where we can come together and learn and grow in the sport. Anyone that's helped anyone or gave them knowledge or encouragement, thank you!

Arzrover for me.

He has spent A LOT of time patiently explaining airgun-related information.

It has been, and will continue to be, much-appreciated.

rangur1, great idea to recognize those who have helped us learn and grow along the way. The Codger is right, everyone on these forums deserve recognition and I credit everyone I shoot with for helping me learn to become better.

For me though, there are three standouts; Scott Schneider (Motorhead), Cameron Kerndt (Team USA - WFTF Italy, 2022) and Mike Driskill (HW55 Godfather). Everyone knows Scott is a great asset to airgunners as Motorhead Airgun Tuning Services, but Scott goes beyond his services-for-sale and has sat for hours with fellow shooters who show serious interest in becoming better and shared tips and secrets he has learned along his successful journey as a field target champion and airgun tuner. Come to a match he runs and he'll help you score higher and afterwards shoot your guns and allow you try some of his.

Cameron is another extremely knowledgeable airgun tuner and competitor who has hosted shoots at his property where he and Scott served to educate others on equipment and techniques. Cameron has spent hours sharing (some of, lol) the lessons he has learned to become another great field target champion as well as helpful tuning and repair information. If my Steyr ever needs some love, Cam is my man.

Mike Driskill is an internet friend who goes above and beyond providing informative pictorials and historical background on so many vintage airguns and sights on these forums that I cannot name them all and I blame, er, credit, him for my infatuation with old school 10m spring guns and the meager but highly desirable little collection I am fortunate to own. If you need advice on anything Mike is interested in, he will share everything he knows and then some. He truly loves old school springers and is instrumental in keeping the interest in them alive.

Tony - Agree 100% with Mike (CC) as a great tutor and mentor. I can always count on Mike, especially for bench rest guidance and all things air guns. Mike N, Joe F, Lou, and many others on AGN are also a huge help especially for all things Benchrest.

The guy who has helped me from the beginning ( when I bought my first PCP - Regal XL .22) lives about 20 miles from me, in Raleigh, NC. Ed ( ELH ) has taken me under his wing for the last four or five years. He has an encyclopedic mind for all firearms, not just Airguns. We shoot at each other outdoor ranges, ( his mostly ) and we are good friends outside of the hobby as well. I can’t think of anything he doesn’t know, but he will deny this because he is humble. He has helped me with numerous questions, tunes, broken Airguns, etc.

Truthfully, I would have given up on air rifles if Ed wasn’t the invaluable resource that he has been, and still continues to be every day.

Great bunch of guys here!

My hats off to Biohazardman, he helped many, especially in Yong Heng matters, with the patience of a saint. Looking forward to hearing from him again. WM

I cannot remember who specifically helped me out with my issues fumbling into and through PCP’s and tuning. The entire community here is very helpful and patient with new people posting questions and seeking advice.
Thanks to all because without this forum I would have taken much longer to figure this stuff out to the point I have.
Still learning and appreciating all the advice, experience and knowledge shared here.
