What a great thread, love the story of Fred and all the rest of the cat tales.

Hey thanks for the replies. It IS a somethin ain't it Red? In all my years of gun nutting I never even knew there was a pinfire shotgun. The revolvers i'd come across occasionally, the shotgun...

I'd say you are exactly right Dominic, I googled those pinfires and I've found multiple shotguns that look very similar, also found suppliers who reload for them. I'll be making a bid for this one...

I was at a customers house today and we got talking about antique guns..he ask me if I knew anything about them and I said "a little bit". Turned out not. He hauls out a trash bag with a gun in it...

3 years ago I had a redtail move onto the crotch of a huge live oak out behind the house. She built a nest and proceeded to hatch 3 younguns. They stayed for about 3-4 months, all 4 of them and...

I used pyrodex for decades not knowing any better or having any other choice.
Tried T7 a few years ago and I'll never go back. Fires off great and doesn't rust my guns if I miss a spot when...

I can almost taste it..specially sitting here on a Sunday morning drinking coffee and thinking about breakfast. It won't be the same but I'll fry some black label and grab a few eggs from the coop to...

No doubt. That looks phenomenal. Never tried curing my own bacon but it looks like a good thing for me to study up on, hows it taste?

You really can't go wrong with a 34 if a mid powered springer is what you want. Mine is as plain jane and unpretentious as an airgun comes but it stayed in the rack when I sold all the big box store...

Lol, good pic! I came home from a fruitless turkey hunt one saturday years ago and was eating lunch when my wife called for me to come see the turkey in the frontyard.

I had the HW30 which is a lesser expensive version of the R7. It was very impressive in feel, fit and finish..was very accurate out to 20 yards, very quiet and smooth. Just so long as no one expect a...

I've had a Jotul 602 for right at 20 years. For the first 6 or 7 years it was our only heat source and it indeed will keep our 1000sqft little house nice and toasty. When we had central heat and air...

Picked one of these up last year for about 75.00. I haven't fired it yet but heck, might do so tomorrow. Enjoyed this thread.
Forum: AirGuns
Its hard to say for sure but odd are that it'll go bad too. The centerpoints that come in the combos are without a doubt the least expensive of the manufacturers lineup.
The 4x's actually hold up...

I love it when it snows. My whole state shuts down, milk and bread (why i don't know) disappear off the shelves and everyone buckles down for the emergency. I don't go to work because i can't, i'm as...

I've had dozens of scopes on springers, and the above advice is all good. High end Bushnells and Leupolds will hold up, low end won't. Other than that one needs a scope special made for spring guns....

The old shotgun shells.. I've sniffed thousands of them and when i break out the occasional old shell still do the same. Love the smell of black powder too.

I tried them all from .177 to .50 and finally wore out on it. Went back to powderguns for anything bigger than a rabbit but did keep some favorites.

Just bought the Gamo revolver..very similar to the crosman in style but is all metal and shoots pellets instead of bb's. I wasn't real impressed..accuracy with its favorite pellet was so-so at 10...
