Hey guys,
Thanks for letting me join the community. I'm 48, a family man with 5 kids, and 5 grandchildren. I'm an avid outdoorsman who enjoys bow hunting and fishing. My newest addiction is air guns. Currently shooting a JTS Airacuda Max .22cal and my Artemis PP700 Air Pistol, also in .22cal. Nice to meet y'all and I'm looking forward to jumping in the community, contributing where I can, and learning from the experienced members.

Sincerely,

Great! I'd love to talk about my Airguns!!!
My Airacuda Max is my first. It will shoot pellet on pellet at 50yds all day long. I also have a moderator, from Airgun Capital I bought for around $25 bucks. At first, I experienced no clipping issues but after taking the moderator off and on a few times to do some maintenance, it began to clip. I bought the Donny FL adapter and after installing, she's back to pellet on pellet. I also bought a Vevor air compressor that will go up to 4500psi. You gotta be careful because there's two that look exactly the same, both being orange and I included pics, and one goes to 3500psi with the other 4500psi. It only cost me about $250 bucks, has the automatic temperature shutdown, and an attachment to hook up to your car battery. Great little compressor and beats pumping by hand. I haven't shot with a chronograph yet, but my Buddy, who has the Max in .22 and .30, just got one for us to use. I love this rifle and if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

The Artemis PP700 is a PCP pistol I originally bought for when I was bowhunting in my treestand and those pesky squirrels start acting up. It was about $250 bucks, for just the pistol. I also have a moderator on it, it's a Donny Tanto. Recently, I found that carrying it while bowhunting might be a gray area as, you're not supposed to carry any other weapons while hunting deer, other than the one you're deer hunting with. My state is Ohio and unfortunately, we can't hunt deer yet with air guns. I hope they change that as these airguns are getting more and more powerful each year. Anyway, I have never taken it with me as first planned but i did squirrel and rabbit hunted with it a couple times. I looked for a long time to find an accurate, powerful, and consistent pistol. I also wanted a pcp that was regulated. Turns out that's a big ask in the world of air pistols. Then I found the Artemis. There's a couple different models, one is multiple shot and highly-modifyable, but I liked this one more because it has a higher FPS, which I know isn't as important as FPE, but it also has a regulator. The downside, it's single shot. I've never had a problem taking out a squirrel or rabbit but you better make sure you get good at loading, lol. There is a tray, if you will, that you can buy to help load faster but I don't use one. I have a red dot from Amazon on it. Again, any questions please feel free to reach out and ask.

Welcome to the Ham forum!
 
Welcome,
Airguns are addictive. I've tried to kick the habit several times over the years, but could never do it. I just bought one last week and am trying to hold back from buying another one this week. This is a good and informative website. You'll like it.
