Time for a Steyr Pro X 10I don't know if I'm just getting bored with airguns but there hasn't been any interesting guns to buy in recent memory. The two models I had half an eye on this last year turned out to be pretty meh: the BRK Ghost was too similar to my Impacts and the Skout turned out to be an ultra heavy, uber expensive & gimmicky talking niche gun. This Skout was touted to be some revolutionary, game-changing super rifle but, after the initial hype, it sure seem to have landed with a big thud. The much hyped FX Panthera was also a yawner b/c it's purpose built for purpose that is of no interest to me.
Without anything new and exciting to buy, I found myself buying more Impacts and Leshiy 2's . . . neither of which I needed. Oh yeah, I was very fortunate to find Michael's Colibri last month and got reunited with probably the only rifle that I've truly regretted selling but even then, we're talking about a rifle that is like a decade old?
So what are you guys looking forward to? Are there any cool new rifles coming out in the near that have you excited?
sorry, already sold and delivered to new owner...Maybe you should sell me that L2 Python Cowboy set up to create a gap to fill in the arsenal
I shoot grasshoppers off the lawn with my Daisy 499B! I can sit on the back deck and shoot the ol' Daisy for hours and love every minute of it!Am I the only one that still takes out my Red Rider and a tube of BB's to fight the invading hordes of plastic Army Men?
I just ordered mine today on the Crosman site.I'm looking forward to the Crosman 3622 and 3677 if they ever show up. I like em cheap and lightweight. No room in my budget for high end stuff.
This is what I was thinking too. Yen for the amount of money you seem to spend on airguns (not a criticism hahah), I think you could pick up a decent lathe and mill, either new or you can pick up some of the older industrial quality equipment (such as a Bridgeport mill, or south bend lathe) but those things last forever. Just keep tooling in mind budget wise, but you won’t need a ton to start. Or you can even get some decent cnc machines.This is why I don't care for high end airguns. I find joy in taking a $350 pcp and making my own custom parts to have a one off that I can call my own. I do understand though that not everyone is a gunsmith/machinist with thousands of dollars in equipment to be able to do the same.
