Uncle Xi and his buddies have been trying to copy the European and American airguns for a long, long time. I am not saying they are not finally learning how to make a decent airgun, but they have not done such yet. From what I can tell, the only thing they have going for them is the price...

In the past I have thought that an airgun manufacturer should gather all of their engineers into one room and lay out the best sproingers from all over the world on a table in the center of the room and tell them to design and build a sproinger using all of the best qualities of those. Of...

“If money was no object..." That is a mighty big if.

If not the Marauder, I would have to go with the Discovery, though it may have been around too long to meet the requirements. The basic AirForce design has been around for some time. It has been modified and customized since its first inception. One of the older Gauntlets live here right now...

What would make me ditch airguns? Nothing.

Eight hundred friggin' dollars?! I like the reticle, but at that price they can keep it.

Diana used to be a great company. Now, as Hateful McNasty points out, they are only interested in your money, not whether they market anything worth owning.

Should Doug go totally insane, please make sure he sends that sproinger to live at RidgeRunner's Home For Wayward Airguns. A sproinger like that would do well in the company of my grandson's HW30S.

Who really cares? Maybe I have too much Scottish blood in me, but FX airguns are waaaaaay beyond what my change purse can deal with.

Dear Mr. Schultz, You have my sincere congratulations on your recent promotion to head the ASA. As a longtime reader and follower of Tom Gaylord's work with the airgun industry, I have heard your name used many times previously. I personally like to collect some of the older airguns that were...

DUH!

I wish RTI would make an affordable air rifle, but with AOA selling it, that ain't gonna happen. I like that P-3 Compact, but I can only guess at what the price will be. Not real would be my bet.

WOW! That is truly awesome! I'll take one! That will make me buy a TalonP
