I do both. Firearms are my first love of course but since I have 41 airguns I think I love them as well.

Both here, have many firearms mostly milsurps, but shoot my airguns the most as that's always been my favorite since a kid.

I’ve got both I primarily use my firearms for hunting large game and on the off season it’s nice to have a gun I can shoot without spending a fortune on ammo. As well as if you live somewhere you can shoot in your yard and you have neighbors they would probably enjoy the pellet gun much more.

I shoot both. Each has their purpose and power. To me Air Guns are so much less stressful to practice with and enjoy. Like many others, Iwas always a PB guy until the AG addiction got me.

I’d say it depends on location. I live in a fairly rural setting so firearms and air arms are good to go. If I lived in my former location it would have to airguns only. Another issue currently is the cost of ammo. I noticed recently at our club that the old timers were switching over to airguns for their 50 and 100 yard shooting. Not just .177 and .22 either….25 cal and .35 cal airguns.

Hey Rob_in_NC, How about blowguns? If you like atl atls you may qualify as a blowgun fan. I have made some, one of which was a fine success. 0.625” inside, 1/2” electrical conduit. PM me for rudimentary instruction. Be Well Brothers, Bandito.

Got a standard and a Cold Steel big bore airgun. I did make one a long time ago from a straight section of some kind of sapling.I split it down the middle and then carefully hollowed each half and bound it back together. I took bamboo skewers and cut a notch at the back end and twisted cotton around to make darts. Worked well enough for S&G!

I have both but the fact that I can shoot air in my backyard with pissing off neighbors is a big ass win!
