On, Canada
Been waiting patiently a month for these. First of all I have to thank Bear-of-Gralling because he mentioned them in a post a month ago. I waited a day or two before I ordered. AofA had .20 cal. available. They don’t sell to Can. I had a Can. dealer buy them for me. I ordered a HW30 and a HW50 both in .20. 👍As soon as the two were authorized I told my wife. You know they have a 95 in .20 as well and ironically same as what Mycapt65 just said, I can save on shipping if I get it now. Got all three. She saved the marriage.

Needs a cleaning. Every thing is tight.

The HW50, no droop

Pellets are tight fit.

Twangy sound shooting. Vortek needed. Easy to cock and operate.
The 95 had a small barrel droop.

I left the 95 on the bench for a scope. I am so stoked to get these rifles.
That’s a R9 on the other bench.
These guns can’t be ordered in Canada since Covid, I’ve tried.
Also the straw that broke the camels back. I ran out of places to put guns. Time to make a more efficient rack. Five springers this month. Help needed.
Is there an Airguns Anonymous?

Airguns Anonymous here at my house , just have guns delivered here and then we will talk about what you did and when i think you can handle them i will send to you .
Always nice to know we have support. 😜 Crow

D&L was hoping to get their Weihrauchs in January, still nothing. And AGS just got a few Diana’s in. Really sad. Crow
Inventory is low because it's all in Crows gun room.lol. Nice additions to the collection.
Thanks. The room is filling, new rack needed. Crow
Nice purchases! Excellent way to save money. Looks like the collection is getting full. How do you rotate your rifles?

Thanks, they drove me crazy. Sitting there, I tried to buy from them before, but they vetoed that idea.
Rotating is starting to get a little complicated due to numbers. I try to shoot what I haven’t shoot in a while. I’m thinking of a chart to keep organization. Crow

Congrats on the new .20 cal toys. Have my R7 and R9 but haven't sprung yet for a 50. Went a different direction and absolutely no regrets that I did :)
Thanks the 30 is amazing, can’t get past it to check out other two.
Crow if you keep going like you have been your going to need a bigger house🤔

Just downsized not long ago. Maybe move a wall? I do need a rack. All full. Crow
The heck with the airguns, where did you find that woman? Congratulations!
Thanks. Ah, the main Squeeze. I always told her in her past life she was a drummer. The one on the back of the Roman Gallion beating the drum for the oarsmen.
‘Again thanks for the lead.
‘Some morning I wake up grouchy.
‘Other mornings I let her sleep in.

Wow this airgun addiction is a real thing :oops: :geek:
Some say rabbit hole. I say sink hole. Crow
 
I actually am very glad i fell down the PB hole, taught me to be much more selective about this Air gun hole ( well .....sort of anyway . )
I lived all my life in IL> Gestapo land, retired to KY ,land of buy and sell anything anytime ( walking in Walmart and see a open carry pistol / ask about it maybe end up with it my belt instead of his or hers . really not kidding .

I can’t say I regret any guns I got. I can’t get past the 30 to even give the 50 and 95 fair time.
Talking to an old buddy last night great guy. Last week he grabbed a co2 BB pistol. To scare some geese with noise. He’s up by Algonquin Park on the water. He accidentally shot his index finger. 425 fps. Entered his finger hit the bone and rolled to the other side of his finger around the bone. He couldn’t get it out. Over 8 hrs . in hospital. Has to get staples removed, ouch.
‘I used to go to Chicago at least once a year. January, Buddy Guy used to play live in his own bar for the whole month. And the McCormick Convention Center was a in. Favourite city. Great music, great food and the Black Hawks. Crow

Was going to suggest maybe alternating how you hang them on the pegs, butt to the left, butt to the right, but at the rate you buy new guns, adding a couple new walls is probably the better option...lol.
Great minds think alike. Did it last night.

I have to be really careful with a few 35e longer barrel.

Not quite as neet, but doable. I went from 12 to 16 on rack. I should be good now. Thanks Crow
