Alkin w31 costs what nowadays?
$4,000 or $5,000?
To fill one PCP rifle and maybe a tank.

OK folks, I have bit the bullet, or actually the pellet.
Stopped of at my LGS. Ordered a Benjamin Marauder, 22 cal, synthetic stock.
Stopped off at Amazon. An inexpensive compressor, a Vevor. and a spinning target to shoot at (G).
A small step for mankind, a big step for me!

Now comes the hard part, learning how to lie convincingly about your shooting success.

Maybe you should plan on a shooting partnership?
It should be doable if you're there already?
It takes strategy.

bs to all that stuff,until you know what you really want to do , just get a good simple gun that has much good reports and good reviews.do not need all that stuff when starting out.Hand pumping is easy if the air gun does not nee to go pass 3000psi.....it also depends how much money you want to spend .you better off with Benjamin PCP FOR THE MONEY....

I wish I would have started there instead of the Beeman Cheif2, and Gauntlet2. I wound up pulling out the cash and got an FX Crown.

No need. I used to be a fisherman!

Thanks to all for your comments. Thinking about what to get next and I haven't even touched the gun yet. I'll be asking for bottle recommendations when I figure out volumes/shots/etc. Its not that I don't bring three guns at a time to the range!!!

When you indicate how long the fish was, and someone else indicates a longer fish, do you incredulously respond, "Between the eyes?!?".

To the OP - how'd you decide that so fast ? LOL. I'm in the same boat as you (even close on age) and I been dwelling on this stuff for months ! Congrats on your choices, hope you have a blast with PCP's. I hope to be in the near future. Good luck !.
