I'm right with you: peace, cost, availability . . . these are each things that are important to me. I also keep qualified with my Springfield Garrison 1911 9 ml pistol, but it's meant for defence, not fun. I love finding my special peace out on the range. Orv.

For me it is able to shoot and airgun in my backyard, can’t do that with your powder burners unless you own hundreds of acres and no neighbors the shortage of ammo and everything powder burner related got me into airgunning and I never looked back since, I haven’t shot any of my powder burners in close to 3yrs now

Powder guns=dust collectors

I’m ready to sell all my powder burners to buy more airguns but I guess I’ll hold onto them for the zombie apocalypse

I was going to use polymags, and dip them in garlic sauce first

That’s a good recipe, I’m a big fan of hades soaked in holy water…

Great video. When I tell people about shooting airguns they really don't understand. Mostly because they still think we're using box store crappy bb guns, until I pull out what I am using. Powder burners are absolutely relevant and neccessary as large game hunting and defensive tools,and I especially love my CA 22lr for varminting. Even the 22lr though is still way too much for so many applications where an airgun is perfect. Not to mention, I get WAY more trigger time with airguns, something I simply cannot afford to do with PBs.

You can pay off an expensive airgun by not going to the range for sure

I have a nice Browning Stainless Stalker .270 cal that I purchased @ 1992 that hasn't been out of its case but a few times in the last 20 years. As for air rifles, my original love, my HOA president came by last week after a neighbor came to him because of my BRK Ghost. It was told that I was out in the neighborhood shooting a high powered assault rifle. When the president asked exactly where this person lived, he laughed and told them, "That's Robby and that gun is just a fancy pellet rifle that looks intimidating". He then offered to bring me a piece of steel plate home from his work to be used as a backstop. This entire conversation took place over the pool table where the Ghost was sitting next to us.

What's your point, my friend? Did intimidating behavior take place, or merely the sharing of a sport between two neighbors? People read all kinds of things into behaviors they don't fully understand. Smile friend, and go about your day in peace. Orv.

My point is much the same as so many other folks who stick their nose into other people's business without any idea what they're talking about. "Off into the Kool-Aid and don't even know the flavor".
A neighbor passed by my house, saw me and an air rifle and made some hefty assumptions, then ran and tattled to the HOA. He had no clue what he was talking about, nor did he know I was treasurer of said HOA and the president knows all about my air rifle.
Karens be er'where trying to control things they know nothing about but are simply willing to jump on the band wagon of negativity.

Sounds like you changed the experience from a negative one to a positive one. In the end of the day as long as we are being responsible, abiding by local, state, and federal laws, we can make a positive impact on the trajectory of how our sport is perceived. Good job!
