mine get tossed in the buggy seat the back or in the truck they are in the mud the muck and they get used.At some point you either have to frame it and hang it on a wall, or just shoot the thing. Take care, but take it out shooting, hunting, whatever. Don't feel bad about battle scars that were earned honestly by mistake. That's life, live it. Use your airgun for it's intended purpose. It's not a runway model living off its good looks, and those looks don't help it shoot any better. Worry about having a good time with the time you have. Not what your gun looks like or if you will hurt it's value. Unless, of course, you decide to hang it on a wall. At least it would be real art and not something stupid like "white rabbit in a snowstorm." To each their own I guess.
and i still veiw them as runway models : )
