Nah, just lazing around looking at the various airgun forums. I do get an alert when someone posts on this thread though, hence my speedy response.

Some very nice looking grips on a very good looking example. Good shooting there too! 👍

You get my every time with the Ted Williams models; the closest I can get on this side of the pond is my Crosman 157 with some grips I adapted to fit. I have considered trying to make the ribbed rail, but it would probably end up looking like a dog's breakfast.

The black rifle thingy doesn't look quite tactical enough, couldn't you have put some lights and lasers on it?

Sparklet... 🤣

I am surprised that the individual in the video was not advocating a conversion to HPA with a hose attached to a bottle, probably shoved down his trouser leg. He has a bit of history on the topic...

Not sure which bit of my English you making fun of, but then you folk in the various colonies do have a peculiar way with the King's English... 🇺🇸 🇦🇺 🇳🇿 😉

Umarex Smith & Wesson 586. I believe I am at least the third owner, the guy I bought it from got it from another guy who had it stripped, polished and chrome plated, including the all important magazines. Not sure if it qualifies as a 686 now though... 🤔 It's a bit of a fingerprint magnet...

Well, I have only fired it at the seller's house to test it before I handed over the cash, but I will definitely be using it some more, even if it is just to show off the bright chrome finish... 😎

I hope you remembered to count all your shots... 😎

Gave the Daisy Powerline 44 a trip to the range today, not particularly accurate, but it's nice and smooth to shoot. Only tried the 4" barrel which was WILDLY inaccurate, and the 8",which was better, but then the capsule ran out and it was time to head home.

Are they more complicated than a 78G?

Another trip out with my old model HW45 with the prototype red dot rail. At the last outing it ended up with the screw working loose from the recoil, so I re-fitted the iron sight only for the blade to fall apart. 😵‍💫 This time I applied thread lock, but seem to have run out of vertical...

My local bell target club might be starting a red dot competition soon as an alternative to irons, so I am thinking of adapting my Twinmaster Top along these lines. Looks very cool, who needs a Huben... 😜

I was actually thinking of a MK1 or MK2, but a 38t in 0.22 might go nicely with my 0.177 model. 🤔 Easier to load too... 😁
