Does anyone else shoot air guns?

[Shawnee McGrutt]

Seeing that it has been harder to find places to shoot in my area, i have pick up a few air guns to plink around with in my backyard.
Here are two of my favorite, the rifle is a Barra 1866 ( sold at wallyworld) and the revolver is a Remington 1875, made by Crossman Airguns.  I know it isn't the same as putting lead downrange, but it beats driving an hour one way, when the urge hits.

I shoot air guns all the time, but mine just look like air guns.  I shoot much better when I practice with them regularly!

Welp ! I may have to join you...

ever since My Daughter moved her horse back here, 
I lost my shooting gallery out in the barn.

The phhh of an Air Gun may not traumatize the beastie like my Milisurps do!

Just got one that mirrors a WWI Webley Mk VI - same weight and balance.

Also have a Daisy-made, 'Winchester'-marked M14.

I have a number of good air guns - all are fun to shoot - all help maintain marksmanship skills, because one has to focus and have follow-through - like throwing a dart, and the best part is that I don't have to pick up brass.

Plus, if I use the right backstop, any BBs being shot are fully recoverable.

Scouts Out!

I've been thinking on a Barra Schofield for back yard fun.....

I have a Huben K1 I paid $2000 for with a scope I paid $1000 for along with another $1000 worth of equipment to fill the damn thing.

It was the only way to get a "suppressed 22" where I live. I couldn't pay $200 for a tax stamp so I paid $3000 instead.

And then a month or two after I bought it, my county passed a law that made using airguns for past control in residential areas very legally perilous.

So it's a super cool gun but man, PCP stuff is expensive and not all that useful.

  It's an itch I'c certainly like to scratch.  Especially some of the Hyper Accurate PCP Air Rifles.  Onlyist thing holding me back is the cost.  My word, those things are EXPENSIVE!!  As cited by Begle1, TWO grand is not exceptional.

Here in my neck of the woods there are no restrictions on "backyard" pest control with an Air Rifle, but we don't have Iguana to hunt like Florida, but I would certainly reduce the feral cat population by alot you betcha.

Oh krapola.  This has caused the re-infection of that dormant itch.  I fear it's gonna cost me a bundle before it's over.  Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!

[Hair Trigger Jim]

Maybe Begle can help you with that itch!
