Air rifles for anything more than squirrels is not part of my world, today. As a kid I put squirrels, rabbits, quail, and doves on the table with Benjamin and Crosman pellet rifles. Today I like REAL guns. I like the noise. No suppressors. I like the recoil, to a certain extent. I like to smell the powder, even though it smelled better as a kid. Especially paper shotgun shells. I still like to smell Hoppes #9. I believe in starting kids with air guns, but I don`t want to hunt with them. Just me. Ya`ll enjoy them.
