Well I just got into this hobby in May when I bought a Gamo Varmint .177. Then I started reading and researching and bought a Gamo Urban .22 along with a new scope and hand pump. Suddenly this hobby was a little more fun! The squirrels in the woods on my property never knew what hit them. Then I decided I wanted a nicer air rifle. After much deliberation I settled on and bought a BSA R10 SE. I choose this one over the Daystate Regal XL because I could switch the magazine between the BSA and the Gamo Urban. Well then I see Daystate made a change to the magazine and added a side lever cocking mechanism. Damn them!
So I talked to my local seller since he sells Daystate and he tells me he has a right handed .22 Daystate Revere in stock and that he will hold it for me until Saturday when I can get to his shop. Sold! So Saturday I pick up the Daystate and probably a few other items. I bought a Hill pump which works better than the Benjamin pump I already had and my local guy is nice enough to allow me to trade them in when he gets a compressor in stock.
Now that I have a local hook up I'm not sure I'll ever stop adding to my new collection of air guns. Even though I am buying nicer guns I still enjoy shooting all of my guns, even the Varmint. I feel like that gun forces me to be a little more disciplined in my hold and trigger pull, and both help me when shooting the other nicer guns.
So to all you new airgunners, beware! This is a great fun hobby but one that may empty your bank account if you don't have a lot of self control!
