    What got you started?

    Had a need to control the backyard rabbit population so bought my first air rifle that wasn't a brick & mortar store special: Benjamin Trail NP XL in .22. I couldn't believe how much better it was than the little .177 pellet and bb guns i grew up with as a kid.

    Gun Room/Armory Ideas

    oh man... I had no idea those doors started at $1300... I may have to ring up a cabinet building buddy... in fact if I had to guess, hiring out a local cabinet outfit may cost about the same (less if you have more than 1) and probably yield much better results.

    2 of my favorite accessories!

    I think i saw some bad reviews for the edgun fill valve that spooked me in the past... any issues with yours? I love the idea of having a trigger valve for filling smaller guns. So far my favorite accessories have been a compressor and a bottle... I was hand pumping a Benjamin bulldog before...

    GX pump E-5K2 review

    Yeah the whole GX vs manufacturer thing on greasing is a little concerning but I think I'm going to follow their recommendation. Did you notice a little particulate in the cooling reservoir after you used it? Nothing like metal shavings but thinking maybe a little scale if they tested with...

    +1 for ballistol... smells like pine-sol to me but have been using it on 4 guns for the last year and they've all done well on seals/diaphragms/orings/etc

    GX pump E-5K2 review

    Just thought I'd post this up in case anyone is looking at these. They are great compressors (especially on value). I bought one to fill a 12L tank and it does so pretty quick, I did it from empty to full in about 3 runs of 45-60 minutes/each. The integrated cooling system got a little warm...

    Pellets from Amazon

    FWIW I gave up ordering pellets from amazon... about 75% of them come damaged during shipping. So far Pyramid air and The Pellet Shop have both done some amazing work packing ammo in foam & cardboard so the ammo shows up in about a good shape as you can get without ordering a pallet.

    Gun Room/Armory Ideas

    So I'm building a small unused room (about 10x15) in my house out for my growing air rifle addiction and I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions on killer features that you like or would have liked to build in to yours. So far I have storewall (slatwall) on one end of it for rifle...

    what are you all using for portable shooting bench solutions?

    Bought that same one! love the portability but can be a bit of pain to setup on dirt... i think i may try to add some leveling feet.
