Hey guy's, got my Midway USA flyer, and it has several air rifles in it. For those who get the flyer, take a look at them for the ole Teddybear and let him know what/which one you would take, if any of them.
Thanks in advance. |

The Rem. 1200 actually out shoots the Gamo Whisper. They are both nice shooting. The Whisper took a nice fat cottontail this morning. Love AZ. hunting season...cottontail is open all year One shot , one rabbit in the freezer.

One of our members we haven't heard from for awhile, Tonyex, had a Ruger and liked it a lot. I don't have any experience with any of the ones in the flyer. I just have a cheapy Crosman. RWS had a good reputation, but it is the most expensive one listed!

A Ruger is a pretty good gun after a tune job from what I have heard from the guys that have purchased them on the sale price of $99.00. The RWS makes a fine gun and after a tune becomes a tack driver. There is a lot to learn about spring guns!!?

Well I finally did it. I upgraded from my old Crosman air rifle to a Bam B26. Haven't got it scoped yet. Got it from Chortdraw, and it was raining when I picked it up and the Post Office. I couldn't wait for it to quit raining, so took it back in the shop, and had a 1" pine board leaning up against the wall. I shot it and the pellet went all the way through. I was impressed at the trigger on this Rifle. It was like a good trigger on a rifle instead of an air rifle. The fat city squirrels, that get all my pecans out of my yard in town, is going to be in for trouble this year. Got to start looking for Squirrel Recipes.

Calvin, I have one I got at AirGuns Of AZ...AOA and it works ok. It makes it easier for these old hands to handle the little pellets. Holds 10 pellets and puts the pellet in the gun very easy. Just takes time to get used to how much pressure you use so you don't put 2 of them in. It was cheap so I gave it a try.

How far away did you put that pellet through the board from Calvin? Sounds like the squirrls are in deep for sure!
