Introductions Hello from Virginia

Good morning!

I'm just a dad, who found his way to airguns because of his dad. Started out seeing messages from my dad about the "toys" he was playing with. After visiting and getting to "play" with them I realized they weren't just glorified Red Ryders. Got my first almost exactly 3 years ago now, but didn't get to do much until February of this year when I truly dived in. I now have a decent start with 16 airguns (not including my kids' daisies), mostly budget, spanning all power plants, and crowned with my Texan LSS 457. Long list of wants, and during my wanderings on HAM today I realized I'd been a lurker not a member, oops!

Anyway, looking forward to nerding out with you all.

No, and most of those are bb guns. 3 red ryders, daisy 1998, daisy 840, 2 Umarex DX17, Umarex DSX45, Crosman full auto m1, Umarex hk416. Then I have daisy 880 and crosman anniversary legacy 1000 in 177, Crosman Diamondback(my first airgun), 362 anniversary, and 3622 in 22. Texan LSS in 457.
