Though I haven't posted on AGN in a long time, I still try to peek in from time to time. I believe my last post was telling how an AGN member and friend of mine suprised me with a custom made Marauder stock that kind of forced me to purchase a Marauder to bolt that stock to!! Well, though I have been shooting air rifles regularly since then, I haven't let myself get ridiculously consumed by airguns like I once did.
Months back when I was scanning through AGN I saw a post by a member that I have always thought very highly of and enjoyed keeping up with on social media. He was looking for a scope. One which I had 2 of just sitting in there boxes on the shelf. I had contacted Jimmy and told him I had what he was looking for but never really pursued it as he had found a scope already and I got super busy and just kind of left it at our last correspondence. A while later I found an old stash of pellets and when thinking about what to do with them, I figured that Jimmy could surely use them and the scopes as well.
I sent him the scopes unknowingly to him, just because I thought he would put them to use and to do a nice thing for a super cool dude.
Well, he was very thankful and it was great to finally have a phone conversation with him. All our previous communications were via AGN and social media.
The day after we spoke on the phone, I got an email explaining that he was sending me his Cricket Carbine .177. Not only was I totally shocked, but a .177 Carbine is one of the gun I had always wished I had bought.
I have been involved in many hobbies and met many people because of those hobbies. Without a doubt I can honestly say that airgunners are of the highest caliber of all groups I have been involved with. The generosity and overall good nature of this community is infectious and amazing!!
Thank you Jimmy!! I really can't thank you enough for such a beautiful rifle and such an act of kindness!! Peace and pellet grease Brother!!
