Crowski, you have what appears to be an amazing collection. Is there anyway there could be a thread for members to post pics and description of their collections? I would love to see them and aspire to them.

Lunchtime stress buster about 20 shots from .177 HW35E. 19 yards standing offhand, spinners and 1 1/4” targets. Really like the 35E but it’s very particular. I’m learning it. HW95 Luxus .22 before taking dogs to park. Been neglected while I set up new or worked on others. Standing from same spot. Target pic is why this is my if you could only keep one gun. .177 holes were there from checking elevation on the 35E. Bottom two holes were elevation check with 95. Shot some spinners and the squirrel. Told Kim last shot before we go, shot orange target with elevation corrected. When I go I might take this one with me.

I'm telling you it’s the gun. I shoot decently, but it would take me awhile to match that with any of my other guns. Every time I shoot it I think, “Do I really even need any airguns besides this one”? That’s why I don’t shoot it more often!

On fire this morning. Put four more plates up for targets. Drilled several holes in plates, for aiming. The black plates are new. 
After the targets went up out came these four.
HW97kt .25, R9 .20, HW77K .25 and a HW35E .22. All have one thing in common they’re deadlly accurate. The 77 .25 wasn’t just accurate, it destroyed cans. I have the 97 in .25 as well and they are just as accurate as any other Weihrauch I have. Yes they loop but very predictable. Crow

Wonder if looking at that will make me feel any cooler during July, August, and September here in Texas.

I’ve always figured the early settlers must have gotten here between October and April. Because May through September they’d have just kept moving LOL.

No argument here, I grew up in the deep south, N. Louisiana. Don't think I could have stood the Texas coast but have never been down there in summer, I know the Ga coast around Savannah is miserable in summer. I did spend about 5 years on the coast in the Fla. panhandle, Eglin AFB and it was not too bad. There were some nice cold water, spring fead rivers and creeks we would go canoeing on in the summer. Humidity is what gets me, today low 50's and humidity around 73% with a light breeze, uncomfortable. If it could just stay cool to moderately cold so we could get used to it. I remember growing up 60-70 years ago it got colder and stayed that way a lot more.

Cronied the four guns above this afternoon. Crow
I thought in December it was crazy my lake wasn’t frozen. Never before, well, almost end of January and it’s still open.

Today was fun. Buddy came over for me to program his RC car and help replace a seal on his 2240XL. Also polished the sear and installed roller trigger, adjustable trigger spring and power adjuster on my 2240XL carbine build. Before we started told him I had a few new guns he needed to shoot. Hatsan 135 Vortex first. He has a bum rotator so I took pity and cocked it. Look on his face when he pulled the trigger was priceless. First time I’ve watched anyone else shoot it and I was amazed how much it moved. He thought the same as I, recoil feels like a .223. HW35E next. Let him shoot a few before I told him how it likes to be held ha ha ha. Shot better immediately. Confirmed what I thought, that’s one sensitive girl. 97K long barrel last. Just a few shots before the drizzle started. Much more forgiving than the 35E, he shot it well from the jump. Finished up with the 2240s after we put back together. Confirmed that CO2 guns still don’t like 50 degree weather ha ha. Good day.

HW35E .177, HW98 .22, R9 .177 and HW30 .22.
After the crony I played with a few of the rifles. Another day around freezing, should be 20-30 degrees colder. Crow

Those mods on the 2240 help a lot, but if you really want to make it good, get one of the 1701p trigger assemblies, You will also need a new hammer, or fill the wasp waist on the existing one with something like JB Weld, Really an easy job.

I like the camo. Look’s awesome.
I just came in, I just finished running my Blackline .22 through the crony. Wicked gun. Smoked a tree rat as well this morning with it. Crow

This morning I cronied 4 more rifles. 
HW50 .24, HW77 .22, HW97 Blackline stain. .22 and a HW95 .22.
Of 20 rifles I cronied so far the 85 .177 has been the tightest.
Again I’m taking advantage of these temperature, no wind and 32F. Crow
