I been thinking about getting a D350 N Tec Gas Ram, but I'm very happy with my collection. A few years ago I was totally PCP and had no interest in springers. These are my springers, I have just about every PCP I want. I have been looking at that Vulcan 3. No I'm not going out to my shop and pulling them out for a photoshoot :)

No. But I'm coping. Down to an HW50s in the springer category. In the queue for a HW97 / 77K, some regrets on selling the HW98 in .177, R9 in .20

My 10m obsession has relapsed and I'm told it is getting out of hand. Its a seasonal problem. Maybe a fresh springer is my ticket back to sanity.

Only 2 rifles left on my bucket list, a Beeman R1 and an R10, both in .20 caliber. The ones I already have range from low end to high, include Springers, CO2, Pumpers and a couple PCP's and cover all the bases for the shooting I do.

The list is missing a couple but what's in my gun racks and cases :)

- Beeman R9 .20
- Beeman R7 .20 Huntington Beach, anniversary present from my girlfriend
- Beeman R7 .177
- Weihrauch HW95 .22 in a Craftsman Vit laminated stock.
- Diana D34K Premium .20
- Diana D34 .177
- 73 Silver Streak 
- 4 Webley VMX .20's - 1 fully tuned, 1 Vortex gas rammed, 1 bone stock, 1 NIB 
- 4 Webley Tomahawks.177 & .22 (3) - Yeah they're Hatsan 95 springers but way prettier
- Norica Deadeye GRS .22 - Ordered from Spain and pretty sure I have the only one in the US since they aren't sold here.
- Hatsan AirTact .25 - I made a deal with HatsanUSA for that new version stock before they were released for sale in the US so I have one of the first.
- Mendoza BlackHawk .22 - Birthday present from the girlfriend.
- Hatsan Galatian III QE - My first and now only PCP.
- Hatsan Flashpup .25 synthetic side lever
- Hatsan Flashpup .25 Turkish Walnut bolt action
- Webley Nemesis .22

Why isn’t there an FWB 300S on your list? Even though it’s a low powered 10M rifle, it’s super accurate and a pleasure to shoot.

I never saw one for sale that I considered a good deal. I searched for a D75 for a while but every time I saw one the seller was asking a king's ransom for it. I don't collect guns just to have them, I want to shoot them.

Looks like it is to late for you already. Once you are thoroughly addicted and start buying guns like that it's all over, sorry to say there is no hope. ;^) 

Maybe that is a good thing?

Very nice pistol you have there.

If I showed my pcps it would just confirm that I'm a hoarder. I have more than 5 times the amount of pcps than springers

PdxFrank more like at least 15 lifetimes. Just came in from shooting. And before that I spent 1/2 hour plowing my 50’ and 75’ range I’m making on frozen lake.

Spend anywhere from 1 to 6 hrs. daily on them. More than half the Weihrauch’s on wall were never shot, just got this month on a deal too good to be true. Other wise would never of happened.

 Bottom left 2 are a BSA and LGU Varmint rest are Weihrauch’s.
I’m not an expert like yourself at repairing or tuneup’s as I started with Airguns . 3 1/2 Yrs. ago and unfortunately I was busy till past June with other machines. I have several Vortek kits en route, so I’m going to learn soon. HW30 first job. 
And to answer your second question, yes I had to secure the room to make it possible. 
Also my wife encourages me, so she’s definitely saving the marriage. Crow
