I read all of the posts that come up here about air guns, and it looks intriguing.
The entry point seems to start near 1K, once you get the gun, scope, compressor and small parts needed.
I know that a hand pump works, but I do not think I want to go that route, with cheap Chinese compressors available.
Are there ways to get into a gun that someone else is just tired of and it is still serviceable for a lesser amount? I see on a lot of air rifle forums the posters have a list of several to dozens of arms in their collection, so maybe selling them is unheard of unless they are just trash.
Can you recommend a "good" airgun forum? Hopefully one that is kind to the neophyte airgunner. Maybe they have a good buy and sell sub-forum? This forum is good as far as it goes, but it is not really airgun optimized.
My area is pretty much devoid of PCP participants, so I have not a lot of nearby guidance.
Just rambling now, so I will be quiet and listen.
Thank you, Tim.
