Making an offer so low that it has no sane relation to the current market value of the item is a foolproof demonstration that the buyer is unserious. The best way to do with these folks is to reply "no" and say nothing else. I do this with morons on Facebook Marketplace, eBay, OfferUp, etc...

I’m talking about shooting those wily 4 legged critters, not something you do at the bar! So I’ve seen videos of people hunting hogs on YouTube with air rifles. There’s a guy who took a bunch of them with a .25 Air Venturi. He dropped them all with one shot one kill placement, but I’m sure he’s...

It’s because we’re atop the food chain and not used to being hunted. I guarantee though there are many soldiers and people who live in war zones that are spring loaded too when shot at / in the hindquarters! I think I need to stop browsing here for a bit. I keep finding new equipment that I...

Nice! That sounds good really. I can’t imagine my wife would eat a full bowl, but she’d probably try a spoon or 2. Wow! I didn’t know there was such a thing. White animals are rare in nature. How do these guys avoid becoming hawk food? A few ago in Los Angeles all the white cats started...

I appreciate the detailed info. I don't think an ultra reliable compressor is in the cards for me given that price point! I'll strive for 'good enough' at this point. *Adding* water cooling ex post facto is something I'm sure I could do if I had good instructions, but sounds like it'd just be a...

I saw that it was squirrel appreciation day today and immediately my mind leapt to wanting to shoot a few. I guess the timing is apropos, this Saturday is the last day in California to legally appreciate them! How'd you cook this bunch? When you have that many is it easier just to make a stew?

Yeah it's quite a bit, I've never used a side lever but I can't see it being worth that much money to me. Nor a bolt on an airgun, but I've worked bolts on plenty of regular rifles. Is it significantly harder to work the bolt on some air rifles than a powder burner? That's kinda what I was...

Brain fart. I should've said gophers. We don't have groundhogs in the West... but they're both little furry critters that dig holes in golf courses and elsewhere so you can roll an ankle, close enough I guess. I watch those iguana hunting videos on YouTube, it's a free for all out there. Seen a...

I realize this is old but didn’t want to start a new thread for the same question. Never is a strong word. How much $$ are we talking side lever being worth? I’m looking at some right now where bolt vs side lever will let me get a $3-400 better deal. I can get a nice scope for that much. I know...

Do vendors allow returns for “I felt like it” and not a material defect? I sometimes end up reselling bike components soon after I bought them if I end up with something else or decide I don’t need it. A lot of times it’s a lot easier and more cost effective just to sell to someone than deal...

My primary hobby is cycling (road and dirty bikes), so I’m very well versed in spending ridiculous seeming money on hobbies. o_O Though I’m not independently wealthy unfortunately so the air rifle budget comes from the cycling budget. I’ll make do and be thankful I can do any of these frivolous...

I'm jealous of that shooting gallery you have! I'd love to do some airgun pest control but all we really have that might be shootable are groundhogs. Maybe I can find a weekend job at a golf course.

That's wild! I guess it can always be worse. Though when I go to AZ and other nearby states I realize it can always be better too. PCPs definitely have some startup costs, but I'd rather just get it over with than be dissatisfied with my purchase.

Hello Airgunners, New member here. I live in the hills of Los Angeles, but temporarily staying in Arizona as well as a frequent visitor. I own powder burner guns but I'm looking to get into air guns for hunting and general target practice. Squirrels, cottontails, jacks, and other varmints...
