I've been lurking around since the early 90s and remembering Jonesing over a Career 707 and Sam Yang 909, not to mention the Beeman RX-1, one of the first gas spring piston guns I ever knew made. I still have both my RWS and Beeman catalogs from back then, my old RWS 48, and a pristine copy of "The Air Rifle Hunter's Guide" by Tom Holzel from 1991. Yet family and work always stood in the way of me easing off into "The Darkside" back then, however all that has changed now. I've retired once and even gone back to work after 3 or 4 years of boredom, and in the last few months I've decided to delve back into this old love, air rifles. While I sit and wait on a modified rifle to arrive courtesy of Brian over at Veradium Air, my lady has decided to make me jealous by ordering a FX Wildcat MKIII BT equipped with a 580cc carbon fiber bottle and a DonnyFL Tanto. God forbid her gun outperforms mine or I may be forced to consider yet another higher end rifle that's lefty friendly.
