Introduced a father and son to PCP's!!

[Bob_O]

Went to the range today to do some 100yd shooting. Took the Crown and Streamline. Happened to pick a bench next to a father and son (adult) who recognized right away that my rifles were not powder burners.

So we did more talking than shooting. They seemed super interested so I offered to let them shoot after I shot a group each at 100, and they jumped right on it!!

Each of them took turns shooting each rifle while the other was on the camera. They are locals so I asked if they would message me some pics and I just now got them. That was just about the best time I've ever had on the range!!

This same thing happened to me. Showed a guy my Ataman and Lelya, two months later he show up with a marauder.

Wow that’s cool. 

At the range where I go, we are just a few, but one of person that take care of the range said to me that he dreams that one day everyone there is shooting air..... because otherwise is too loud.

Right on Bob! That would be a cool situation to find myself in. Great to see others get interested or intrigued!

Very cool Bob. I have an invitation for this summer to go shooting with a bunch of airsoft junkies. Hoping to convert some .

Jim,

I was attempting to say the same thing regarding an ambassador of our hobby and give this man a + BUT already gave him one not so long ago. Hopefully you or someone else will do it for me. Great Share BobO. You are a Class Act!

Hey Doc,

Same exact thing here. I think if we want to give a "+" to a member there really needs to be a better system than making me give "+" to 3-4 other users before I can again. I think a better deterrent to spamming or negative attacks is to get rid of the anonymous feature, if a guy does good, he should know who to thank and if a guy is upset with you, you should equally be able to identify and work on inroads to fixing the discrepancy.
@Bob_O - You are the shiznit my man!

Very cool Bob. I’ve run into the same thing where I hunt ground squirrels in CA. The horse ranchers initially gave me permissions over the past couple of years, so I have 5 at a total of about 100 acres. Then this past Summer, after watching me shoot, each one has asked me to find them a gun, set it up, tune it, and provide scope, SCBA tank and fill rig. So since July, I’ve converted 7 guys to air rifles. One .25 and 6 .22 from Crickets to Daystate Renegades to FX Bobcat, Wildcat, and Streamline. But my problem is that now they are shooting all “my” ground squirrels...

You come across as a very good ambassador for the sport Bob .
