Hello, my name is Jim, and i think i have a problem....

[JimT66]

I have a serious air rifle addiction. First, I bought an Air Arms Escape SS Monday. And I just ordered a Pinty Bullpup! I think I may need treatment! Does anyone have any experience with the Pinty PCP rifles?

Yes! I have a pinty thread here, although I have the Carbine not the pup.

Well, I guess it's off to the Tube for me. To check videos of the P-Pup!

Same deal with the semi automatic Marauder that I had.

I've got zero experience with that type of magazine. All of mine are strait forward loading. This should be a great learning experience .

Yes point taken, I’m fluent in sarcasm.

But it’s not that bad, I thought it was going to be a nightmare because I also had my Umarex Origin magazines which are nearly identical, and I never found myself doing the reverse loading on any of them.

You will get used to it after a few hundred times, so there is hope .

My Hatsun QE loaded like that, You turn the mag backside rotate the mag till there is tension and drop the first pellet skirt first. then turn it frontside and drop in the rest of the pellets head first.
sounds like you are in the first stage of addiction, byer Denial, hope to see you in AirGuns Anonymous before it's to late.

I also have no experience in it. The bullpup magazine is also not as universal as the P-Rifle one. If you want additional magazines, of the straightforward aftermarket type, I can grab that information for you.

Please do! That would be a great help I do believe!

I saw you were already on the other forum with the information, so I tagged you and told you what reply to look at. I can copy the information here though, if you want.

I will check it out on the other forum. Don't appear to many here are fooling with them though for some reason. I appreciate you tagging me for the information. That will make things simpler.

I'm just glad someone else joined me in fooling with them. I still think the rifle is best of them, but I come in with some biases.

My name is Jim also and I understand.

After getting my 1st Air Force Condor, I knew I liked the shorter airguns. Especially since my max range for shooting is 45ish yards. And after buying the Escape SS, I Def. Had no need for the P-force version. I have liked the pups now for several years, and this one called me, much more than the under lever cocker. Soooo, I put the $40. Off coupon to great use. Got my fingers crossed for it!

Mine goes into remission every now and then, but it always comes back. Once I didn't buy an airgun for a whole year. I thought I was cured, and then I bought 3 in the last 3 months.

Ohhh lord, you got the same level of sickness as I do.

I’ve only purchased 3 in last 6 months, so obviously I have this issue under complete control. Nope nothing wrong here .

I don't have a problem, I can quit anytime I want. Don't you dare ask me, I'm don't want! Also... I plead the 5th on how many in the last 3 months.
