    Shotgun! No, I'm not calling for the front seat.

    I personally don't hunt bats (they're all getting that nasal fungal death disease around here), but I do bunt hats. Never liked 'em, or what they do to my luxurious locks of hair lol! Edit: just checked my YouTube feed and they released a video of it in action....

    Yeah.... I suppose real world practicality would win against the cool factor and dare I say novelty of it. I still think it's cool though lol!

    Shotgun! No, I'm not calling for the front seat.

    This blows my mind (and probably cash in the future). Anyone ever think something like the Wing Shot (pcp shotgun) was coming? This is the first I've ever seen something like this. What are your thoughts?

    Private Clubs vs. Public Ranges - What's your choice?

    Wondering if I could have you folks share experiences you've had with me while you were first looking to punch some paper. In particular the search for a range to call home. You see I face a paradox of either going to a public range that is run by the next county over, or the oldest gun club in...

    nitpicking the community: foot-pound energy symbol

    Me want to learning to be doing a grammar to. In all seriousness though I can be the same way when someone says they're going to stop by the "ATM machine", or when someone legitimately writes/says "RIP in peace" - ugh.

    Affordable night vision scope ?

    Silly as this all may sound if I were sitting and going to be firing from a balcony I'd get a scope mount for a camera, and then an IR floodlight that a person could mount and point away from the balcony. No extra weight to hold onto for the light then. Something like this...

    Stop smoking? No can do mom. I just thought I'd post this story/experience out here so other newbies (and even the seasoned vets of air rifles) searching the web for info on how hard a benjamin pump is to pump would find it and learn from my mistake of not checking the nozzle...or at least get...

    Strelock Pro question?

    Not to dredge up an old thread, but by chance are you putting the wind in backwards? Took me a few tries to realize the arrow on the wind direction was pointing from the outside of the circle AT "you." So if the wind is blowing right to left you'd actually want to put the arrow so it shows 90°...

    Greetings my fellow gunner type people, I am new to this great world of pcp rifles. How new you ask? Still waiting on the pellets to be delivered for my maurauder. Now I've had my share of little CO2 BB pistols, and I've got my old trusty gamo hornet, but this new brave world of pneumatics is...

    Welcome to AIRGUN NATION - please introduce yourself here!

    The name's Johnny, but you've probably gathered that by the username. I hail from the west central part of a tundra called Wisconsin in what's known as the Chippewa Valley. I've lurked the forums unregistered for a little while, but figured I'd pop up to introduce myself. I was going to go into...
