Hey guy/girls,
I was not sure where to post my into. I decided to post under PCP because I bought my first airgun since my dad gave me a daisy when I was probably 4-5. I was shooting a .22 long rifle not long after that so I never went back to shooting air rifles. I grew up in the country so it was not a big deal to shoot .22's or shotguns or whatever else you felt like doing. I now am in my 30's and live in the city (have bought 3 acres of land to build a home on but that's another topic.) I work for a petroleum plant in Louisiana so I wont long and shift work type hours. I realize I miss shooting and would like to get back into it. While I was recently working a turnaround I bought a Benjamin Marauder pistol and am using it in the carbine configuration. I just shot it a couple of time during the T/A because I was working 13 hour days and did not have any time to do anything else. Recently I got my first weekend off in a few months and the family and I went up to the lake. I brought the air weapon and 110 cu foot steel scuba tank with me and shot a tin full of pellets over the weekend. I GREATLY enjoyed myself while shooting amongst the other activities that we did. I now believe I'm hooked and have been studying on what I want to buy for my next weapon.
Thanks for all the info. that everyone has posted that I have been reading and lurking over. I hope to learn a lot and interact with a few of you here while I stay. Hope everyone is enjoying there week.
Nick.
