    Ticks! Out in the field.

    I was driving back to Turkey Camp once after being in the woods all morning and ticks were walking up my shirt and onto my neck and I was grabbing them and flicking them out the window. This is before I knew about Sawyer permethrin so I had to have the guys spray me down with bug spray Killer...

    What is everyone seeing for age of airgunners lately including yourself.

    Three of us retirees just got back Into airguns because number one deer are getting too heavy to carry out of the woods and number two so we don’t have to wear hearing protection in the woods. All of us have tinnitus or hearing loss to one degree or another from aircraft, tractors, or firearms.

    What Paper Target Did You Shoot Today

    Recovering from Covid easily took 10 points off my average score. Hopefully I get back to normal (normal wobbly) in a week or so. This is with the Revere I bought off a member on this site. What a great rifle. I am going to put a different scope on it for squirrel hunting soon (probably a Hawke...

    Any guns you regret buying"

    I soured on some that I then sold, but I believe they helped steer me to something new I liked enough to keep.

    Paypal No Longer Safe for Selling Airguns (Scammers Have Won)

    Year or two ago when I heard PayPal had cash flow problems I tried to get my funds transferred out to my bank but the transaction always ended in ‘internal error’. So I figured they wouldn’t block sales so I bought stuff I needed and zeroed my account that way End of PayPal for me. I’m glad...

    1st starling in months

    I was popping a few this winter and even dead ones laying under the feeder didn’t seem to bother them. I went outside one time with my airgun in hand to check on one that I shot at that flew out of sight of the window and they all took off and haven’t seen any since on that feeder.

    Very rare animal

    Bumper crop of tree frogs and spring peepers this year. I was in dispare over the last few years about the declining numbers of invertebrates. I firmly believe that this year the abundance is because I was late removing that pool cover last year which allowed many tadpoles to flourish...

    PIP on the Zulus

    I used the PIP for around 100 shots yesterday. I think it will come in handy on further starlings and HOSP. I too think a shortcut button would be great. Now I have a chrony I’m off to the ballistics action. This Arken is great for research. I’m kind of on the fence sometimes though...

    Shot something you shouldn’t???

    Back when I was about 10 (1968) I had a hand me down Daisy which I think was a 1930's Red Rider. My Uncle Vince and Aunt Marty had a farm outside Lafayette, Indiana. I used to go pesting all over this farm. There was a large stock/horse tank that had about a dozen large (5-6 inch) gold fish in...

    What did you do airgun related today.

    Yes on friendly terms BUT, neighbor to the south (left) in the pic shot an ar-15 years ago down toward the creek to the west (front) in the pic and put a bullet through the neighbors barn farther to the west. So it is best to be stealthy. What people don’t know won’t hurt me. 😂
