“DONT CARE MUCH” anyone else at this stage?

My cure for Depression is warmer weather and flying lead, so get out there, shoot and smile.!!

I'm with you, brother. Every time I open one of these forums, some manufacturer is introducing one or more new airguns. As a result, the ones I have just lost some of their value. THEN, when the reviewers start testing these guns, their accuracy are no better than the ones I already have, except they have more knobs and screw adjustments than my tool box can service. I'm standing pat for now.

My wife doesn’t eat beef or pork, and doesn’t take naps. So basically I don’t eat beef or pork and don’t take naps…

LOL
I want all the knobs! : )
no I like like simple one reason I have chosen the guns I have.
some of the place for growth I am interested in are not at the peace for delvelopment in my view.
as for the value that in my veiw has more to do with how many where made how popular they are and how many are floating around when you decide you want one.
many folks that brought into some guns early on when there was specials running have sold those guns for more then they paid that is if the gun was a really desirable gun.

I still love hunting , shooting , Airguns …..but I’m at a point where I can care less about the latest greatest thing. If I’m being honest Airguns are just extra right now but since they’re minimal they aren’t bothering me too much. If I could do it over I wouldn’t buy so many pellets, compressors…and stock pile it’s just a bit much to haul around especially now that we’re displaced from home from the fires. Anyway hope things get better for all the fire victims there seems to be a lot of red tape. I’m fortunate to have been able to have my house stand but maybe it would’ve been easiest if it burned. At least I wouldn’t have to go home in the stink and pick and choose what memories stay and which ones should go from the nasty smell.

Man! Really sorry to learn about your situation. I am with you on the whiz bang $#!t though. Airforce and the Lelya 2.0 and hopefully soon a Leshiy classic ,oh yeah! My 1322 pumper, Is as much as I care to do really. It is just a hobby and a expensive one, but simplicity is key to life. Good luck. Take good care.

I know that y'all get tired of hearing this, but 2 first class springers (TX200 & HW97K) plus a Dragonfly, a couple of Sheridans, and 6 pistols, are all this old man needs for toys. All of these, including two Hawke scopes, probably doesn't amount in dollars to what one 1st class RAW might cost. I love my springers for good reason; they are accurate and make me a better shooter.
MIKE: you, as well as many other Eaton fire have been in my thoughts since the fire disaster you've experienced. My wife and I were born and raised not far from you in La Crescenta. We now live in the High Desert of Aguanga. We've experienced fire emergencies three times in the past 15 years and have been forced to move into motels. Fortunately, our property has remained safe so far, burning only as close as our neighbor across the street. Is there anything I can do to be of help to you? I'm willing, just ask. Orv.

I'm finding it easier to look at each airgun like a pellet launcher and not much more than that. What's the difference between a Huben and an Edgun? They both launch pellets and slugs, generally about the same speed when tuned, with generally the same accuracy. The rest seems to be aesthetics and what makes the shooter feel good.

I've got too many lead slingers at this point, dressed differently, that all do about the same thing.

Am I keeping most of them? Yep.

Am I so attached to this or that anymore? Not really.

Eventually I'm gonna land on five of them as keepers, and the rest are gonna find some new homes.

Newest stuff?

I'm waiting for the next quantum leap before I invest any more $$$ in my hobby.

Right now, I'm keeping the Western Mordax, at least two Huben GK's, a Viper X and a Leshiy 2.
