Introductions Old man from Montana joining the PCP fun

[406 Rick]

Hey everyone. Wanted to say from the Queen City of the Rockies. Just turned 60, and finally decided to dabble with PCP.. I just recently finished loading a sizable amount of freedom seeds, sold my press, and think I've finally decided to spend the earnings on a Zelos as my first gun. Actually, I know it will be, as I've already started buying add-ons for one. That's my weird way of rationalizing a new purchase. Buy the accessories first, that way I'm committed to it and can't back out.
Anyway, I'm not a big poster , as I'm not really comfortable jumping into conversations or topics that I'm still green too. But I'll be here in the shadows, lurking and gaining knowledge and opinions from all of you.

Welcome.

Thanks. I know myself well enough that I'd 'outgrow' an entry level gun in no time at all. But can't justify pony'ing up for a high end rifle that has a comma in the price tag..Yet!
So a Zelos should be a good blank canvas to work from. And educate myself on what does and doesn't work, and what accessories will play nice together

Nothing better than spending someone else's money for them.

I'm the resident cheapskate, I have 1 (out of 16) that had a comma in the final price.
Many great rifles now days under $1,000, new.
A few under $500.
I'm of the mindset of having several rifles of different caliber and size and paying less than 1 Daystate or FX.

Just check out all the threads here for the Barra 250z (I do not own one) too.

If you like to tinker the AirForce Utility platform (Condor, Talon etc) is a lot of fun.

1 out of 38 had a comma... barely.

16 is what is left. Total is probably 30 or more. Had a bunch of break barrels quite some time ago. Sold a bunch of PCP recently. 3 with commas .

Wow, I love Montana, Worked in Helena, Billings, Missoula, Mac pass, Miles city. Every one of those towers I climbed after the fires in 2008.
Still cleaning that smoke out of my nose.
