Air guns are forgotten fun. Post yours.

[JMB Fan]

Some of my really forgotten ones.

When I was on house arrest I mean quarantine for a month I ordered this, Crosman 1377. Fun. 2 pumps is enough for indoor target shooting. Pellets are available! And cheap too.

you can really get these setup nice.
aftermarket stocks, barrels, triggers whole 9 yards.

there is a similar model, i want to say it is the 2240, it is co2 powered and in .22 cal
one of the only co2 powered guns i trust for rabbits.

That is one of the best initially inexpensive pellet guns to own. The Beeman P17 is another.

My newest addition.

It is an Airforce TalonP with a Talon Tunes moderator and a MadDog stock.
The light is because I initially purchased the gun to deal with raccoons and possums that were killing my chickens at night.

Probably should not recommend this, but I also use mine as a dart gun.
Bamboo skewers fire out of mine like little missiles! Great for grasshopper hunting when those little buggers are terrorizing my banana trees!

I only have one.....but it's a hoot to shoot and a tack driver! Ruger Air Hawk Elite 2 in .177 caliber.

My Sig P320 pellet pistol crapped out on me. Need to check and see if they can repair those things. Man I have had fun with that thing.

If you can shoot possums with that rifle you will set a world record. That would shoot all the way to Australia.

I wasn't sure what you were talking about and had to do some googling.
Drop the "O" from opossum and they are not nearly as ugly.

Out of warranty. Bought a new one since I have extra mags for it.

the name comes from when you see one at night grinning, teeth shining in the light of a full moon around here you say O! possum!

there is another variant in comal county, Oshitpossum

Mrod 25 cal PCP. Stacks pellets at 50yds. Damn accurate at 100yds, too. Lot of thump with this one tuned to 24 shots per fill.

I've had this one for awhile. And it still shoots better than my old eyes let me.

 

[RankAmateur]

FX ImpactX in .25 cal. set up for 100 yd targets, and defense against the dreaded chipmunk at 50 yds.

My other favorite: silly accurate at 100 yds. Daystate Redwolf HP in .22 cal.

That Daystate is one fine air gun!

FX is too. I have been looking for a new PCP and checked out sever FX models, but settled on something different.
My new RTI Prophet should be delivered to my house next week. The bad thing about that is that for the next 2 1/2 weeks I am on a job 150 miles from home.

 

[jmohme]

Here is my new RTI Prophet Performance sighted in at 85 yards.

Nice shooting

Some of these rifles are absolutely gorgeous, but on a lark I checked the prices and good NIGHT. They're uh... a bit more expensive than my old Red Rider

I did find the Hatsan Flashpup in .22 pellet, though, and it might end up being the answer to the squirrel menace in the backyard. Little monsters have gotten brave as of late.

Agree re: price.

The Hatsan PCP should be plenty accurate for squirrels, and .22 is an adequate caliber with good shot placement. I don't mean to patronize, so if you already know this, please ignore (and forgive) me. Just like load development for firearms, pellet selection and tuning of your rifle can have spectacular influences on precision/accuracy. The diablo shape of pellets is intrinsically unstable at transsonic speeds, so keeping your pellets subsonic is a good thing. Shooting heavy pellets very accurately can more than make up for fast (light) pellets that result in lesser precision. (For example, the Redwolf prefers .22 cal pellets that have the same weight as heavy .25 cal pellets.). I don't believe the Flashpup has adjustable manifolds, pressure regulators, or ports, so the only way to "adjust" velocities is with pellet weight/shape. You will probably be surprised to find large differences in precision results between different pellets, or even different pellet weights within the same brand of pellet.

BTW, some of the high-end PCPs above can be tuned to specific & precise pressures/volumes for specific pellets. They can be tuned to single digit SDs under ideal conditions, just like handloaders would seek for precision rifles. Both the Impact and the Redwolf can shoot 1/2 MOA groups at 100 yds under ideal conditions (as can the Prophet, obviously).
