    I have an old .177 caliber Feinwerkbau LG110, it's the recoiling version of the LG 150. I've had it since about 1976 or so. The previous owner had chopped down the butt and the forend in order for his kid to shoot it, but the kid lost interest in competition shortly thereafter, so I snagged it, as I was a shooting NRA youth smallbore rifle competition at the time. Although it's not a hunting type gun, it's accounted for about a zillion starlings in the time I've had it. It's very much due for a complete overhaul at this point--it still fires and is very accurate, but the seals are about shot.

    I also have a left-handed Gamo Compact .177 pistol. I've had it for probably 20 years now--I snagged it so I could stay tuned up in the off season when I used to shoot handgun silhouette (IHMSA) all the time. It's a pretty accurate pistol, and fun to shoot.

    Not bad, I have 1700 rounds for it. It's easier to get than 22 lr sometimes, arms list and GB has it regularly for $12-$15 a hundred.

    I have a Crosman RM377 .177 (made by Mendoza) that I bought at Walmart at least 15 years ago. I mounted a nice Bushnell 3x9 scope on it which never worked well as the rings would keep sliding on the dovetail. Finally, I ordered a solid one-piece mount and that took care of that.

    It's nicely made, decent fit and finish, and shoots well. The trigger, however, is the worst thing imaginable. It is heavy and creeps more than a flasher in a trench coat. The release point changes each shot as well, making it very hard to hold precise aim, even on the bags. Nevertheless, it does a fine job on the occasional squirrel, gopher or other small varmints.

    One of these days I'll step up to something of quality, but since I live on a small, city lot and have little room and too many neighbors, I put my money and efforts into improving my "propellant" powered collection.

    Airforce Condor 25

    RWS/Shin Sung Career 22

    BAM B40 22

    All nice guns and way more accurate than I am. All have taken their fair share of Jack Rabbits, but I'm kinda partial to the Condor for the bigger stuff.

    A favorite is this Steyr LP 10. Don't shoot it as much as I used to.

    Added a new one to my collection. A XS46U from Flying Dragon in .177. I put a UTG 3-12x44 scope on it.

    How's the accuracy with the Flying Dragon? Did you get the upgrade? They certainly are priced reasonable.

    I got it stock no tune. This is my first springer so I'm learning to shoot it and breaking it in at the same time. I'm shooting about a 3/4" group at 30yds with AA Field 8.4 pellets. It's shooting those at 890fps.

    That doesn't sound bad at all. Those underlevers are more forgiving than a break barrel. For the price, I'd say you done well.

    i had the browning leverage in .22 caliber, which is the 46u rebranded. it is just silly accurate for a cheap springer. my buddy suckered me out of it because he had a squirrel problem
