I know as airgunners we are always looking forward to something more. Which airgun really scratches that itch for you that you can never part with?
What is one gun you never want to get rid of?

I bought my first pellet rifle,a Beeman R-7, at the Beeman store outside San Rafael, CA., in 1981.
I say to myself if this rifle ever becomes too hard for me to cock I am too frail. oh, yes also super accurate

That would be my HW100. It's a well designed, well made, traditional PCP that fits me perfectly.

The Daystate delta wolf has officially blown my mind. Did you know they have a smart version? Does it have a built in chronograph? This is insane! I knew daystate was top notch but I had no clue they were this advanced and innovative holy crap!!!

There are 2 I will never get rid of AEA 357 side lever and Airforce Texan 308 that in 3 wks. will have Mad Dog stock. Both are long distance shooters.

I have many friends in the Airgun industry and also many in the UK. I’ve seen a S ton of 22xx builds and didn’t really do anything because there were sooo many. One day a good friend challenged me to build something way different then the norm on that platform. This was like 10-12 years ago. So this was the outcome.
A 2260 duel fuel co2, pcp gun with 3 working modular tubes and look closer, the barrel is linear action and the breech is designed from the SSP250 platform. So why do this? The gun has no bolt probe to hinder performance. The barrel slides forward on linear bearings to load pellet or slugs. This could only be done with the SSP design. Accuracy? Absolutely and I wouldn’t own a gun that wasn’t. It’s not much in the looks department but definitely an engineering twist not seen in the Airgun world.

I don’t think any of my guns are truly safe from getting sold except two. PCP, BSA Ultra SE .177. Springer, Webley Vulcan .177. Both can be shot by me as a geezer from a retirement home.

My Daystate Redwolf Safari HP in .25.
Had it 6 months and have put upwards of 12,000 pellets down range with it. No issues at all. On 3rd breech seal only.
Accurate as hell!

For me I truly think I won’t ever get rid of this. May modify it at some point and I will be switching back and forth between pistol and carbine. The buckrail unf suppressor looks great on it too! At first I didn’t think it made much of a difference but boy was I wrong!! It isn’t mouse fart quiet but it does quiet it down quite a bit! Love this gun and am very satisfied with this purchase!

Hands down the one I shoot the most is my AA ProSport. That said it’s not the one that be last to go.
Nothing is forever but the last airgun to go will probably be the FAS AP604 pistol. Wonderfully balanced, great trigger, fits me well, accurate and simple. The epitome of pellet, gun, shoot. Low power means I will always be able to shoot practically anywhere, indoors or out. My smile maker.
Only with the greatest reluctance will I ever give up my FWB 603, the last rifle to go. The rest I like to varying degrees but feel no permanent attachment.

My wife and I sure like the HW45.......I've looked at the FAS AP604 a few times but haven't ordered one yet, YET!
Pistols are fun!
