Yeah, at least it was delivered.

IMHO - Skip springers and go directly to PCP. It is a very smooth transition from rimfire to PCP. Better accuracy too. I spent many $$$ on Fine German Springers over the last 40 years and even my most modest PCPs will out shoot and out power them all. Fire away...I don't care.

After hand pumping for years, I bought a Rovair compressor for direct filling. Game changer. Low maintenance, compact, and simple to use. A decent compressor is probably the most important component of your PCP arsenal...

I know the beautiful area around Mormon Lake and Flagstaff really well. Congrats to all the contestants and their families. Special times. (y)

Nah, I really don't care if they change it. It's just basic sales strategy. Why make potential buyers jump through more hoops than necessary? 🤷‍♂️

FWIW I agree with the OP. Separate sections for "Complete airguns", "Optics", and "Parts" would be great. Just my $.02

Just for kicks I put a red dot on the Diana Stormrider. I also wanted to maintain the open sights for really close-up pesting. It works! When I want open sights I turn the red dot off. Funny thing, I'm almost as accurate with the open sights as I am with the red dot at 20-30 yds. Fun experiment.

Foxes and coyotes? Get ready to spend some cash.

Yes, I use all three, but most of my pesting for home-intrusive critters is under 30 feet. I prefer open sights for that. Everything else is for fun.

I'd send it back. Something is messed up. That shot count is low compared to my stock two year old 2240 and Diana Chaser. Both of those get 40+ decent shots. I'm also getting 500 fps with 11.9 RWS Hobby. Put the $ in a Diana Chaser if you really need a cheap Co2 gun. The 2240 in stock form...

Yikes! If I put out pb we'd have a mouse and skunk infestation in no time.

"My first PCP was a simple Marauder. I noticed no issues with POI changes when handled." Why not a .25 Marauder?

Life sounds good. You're all doing so well! (y)

Congrats! That's a powerful beast. .22 cal?

Unless your ground squirrels are the size of raccoons, I think my 26 fpe Stormrider ($220) would do nicely. It shoots JSB 15.89 at 850 fps. No, I wouldn't take shots at 175 yds, but out to 50, sure. Walk and shoot.
