Howdy folks. Diesel here. New to the hobby and just wanted to introduce myself. I just jumped into the PCP realm and purchased a Umarex Gauntlet SL30. I've got ALOT of experience with the real thing(s) but none with the airgun side. I'm old and retired now, so I just want to get into punching holes in paper with the occasional small game hunting. I'm a 3X GWOT Veteran and also worked as an engineer for DOD. The Army's new weapons selections were programs I worked on prior to my retirement. So... (shrugs) I guess, there's that.
Alright, looking forward to getting to know you folks and learning some good stuff. Stay warm out there, it's snowing it's ***s off right now!

So, a normal cat, huh?

Welcome, GW Vet here, fixer of delivery systems of the venerable Mark 84 or BLU-117.

Welcome to AGN and glad to have you aboard!

Thank you for your service to our country.

What sort of airguns are on your radar?

Truthfully, I don't really know. I plan to just punch holes in paper and read and read some more. Not too wrapped up about which is best. Just interested in getting my feet wet, first.
