well as for me I hate to see you go if you choose to but I think you should enjoy enjoy what your doing also.
I beleave learning to work on these is more like a little service job and it should be part of the fun but I hate working on a vehicle so I dont I choose to let another machanic do that. so I can relate.
I love air guns I also love firearms but I cant shoot as much as I like I dont like wearing hearing protection and has a musician my hearing is important to me, extremely important go way out of the why to protect it.

you had some nice guns and as I recall they were not all lemons so how much is just self induced stress worrying about the hammer about to fall rather it does or not?

I say take airguns for what they should be just fun shooting in the back yard the basement.
I got into pcp guns with the mindset of the airgun as a tool or at least a better tool them the old pumpers I have been collecting and using. they are for pest control but I love shooting and they allow me to do that while out on the patio for me thats a win win! and the wife set out there and shoots with me so its another win. triple win

I do hope you can find a way to enjoy these wunderfull beauties : )

If I were to start selling off my collection, I would keep my R7. It's the sweetest little airgun. So pleasant to shoot, and well-behaved. And in .177, it likes the cheapest pellets, so it's nothing to shoot.

Then again, if you have the room for PBs, I see some screaming deals on .22LR ammo from time to time, like $0.06 per shot. That's less than most premium .22 pellets and less than .22 slugs. There should be room in one's life for airguns and PBs. For example, I hunt deer with a Remington 700 Bolt Action in .25-06. Most are knocked flat in their tracks. I also have a growing collection of Spring and Gas Piston and CO2 airguns.

I agree, i would keep the 30 everything else could go.

I'm a bit confused here Mike; your deleting....yourself from Ham? Your last airgun? The highly addictive substance that is PCP?
I'd say if the passion has left then walk away, but....leave the door open...and check in once and a while!

Weak moment or a strong moment?....I think we are the opposite of AAA but for Airguns:
H-A-M H. helplessly A. Addicted M. Members. We're here to help pull you in Mike when you have a weak moment again. Hmm maybe that's why he wants to leave
No one else I know can buy 3 Edgun Leishy's, a Brk Ghost, AAA Evol, Revere, TX200, two Brk Atomics, and others in a span of a year and return... every. single. one.

Haha guys. I’m not leaving HAM even if I sold everything. I really was tempted to get out for a couple days. It’s been fun but a lot of stress too.

Ditch the stress and do something fun… like simple plinking for the heck of it… I want to shoot this afternoon, but am first going on a tandem bicycle ride with my precious wife. Riding is fun and cleanses the mind, hopefully I can get both activities in, if not? No stress, still fun. My stress starts at 5am during the workweek… Just put them guns away for a little while and pursue other pleasures. But please stay as you can and do offer valuable insights having owned so many quality PCPs…
