Introductions Hello from Lisbon, Portugal.

[Semião]

Hi, just wanted to introduce myself to the group and show my current airguns, FX Impact M3 and Hatsan Invader auto.
I use them mostly for hunting.
The Hatsan shoots great until 50yds and the Impact is shooting spot on at 100 yards.

Thanks for joining us from Portugal, you are very welcome in the HAM Community

Can you please tell us something about airgunning in Portugal? For example, are there power restrictions? Are there airgun competitions? Do people hunt with airguns?

I feel that many HAM Community members will find this interesting!

Yes, there's a power restrictions... Not allowed more then 24j unless you have a hunter license.
Airguns in Portugal are easy to buy in 177 and 22 caliber... More then that its very difficult and again you'll need a hunter permit.
We have a few benchrest competitors and s few competitions through the year.
Hunting with airguns its not allowed and most people only do plinking.
Im lucky because i have a big family land and i do pest control every chance i get!

Airgunning here is not that big as seen in other countries but time will get this sport more recognized.
Also its a bit technical to fix in case there's some problems, I'm yet to see a shop to do repairs or upgrades, every thing I've gone in my rifles was learned in forums and on YouTube videos.
