Greetings-

Long time powder burner shooter. Long range and hunting. Discovered air guns and looking forward to another adventure.

Hope to learn a lot from you all as there are clear differences from my familiar firearms.

Welcome teesquare! I'm not too far away in east Tennessee. I'm one of those boring guys that mostly collects older springers, but lemme know if I can help out in any way.

Thank you. I am really intrigued by the PCP airguns. Bought one @ the NRA Whittington Center in Raton NM earlier this month- as a “trainer” of sorts. Air Venturi Avenger in .22 cal. Looking to buy a big bore to potentially hunt with.

Thanks - I am near Brevard. The wife was born and raised in Asheville. I like it here - but wish for more open country sometimes.

@teesquare Went to football camp there in 1969. My wife tries to spend a little time every year in Clayton, Ga. at a writers retreat. We're in Savannah, GA.

Savannah is a beautiful place. But the summers insured that when the wife and I knew we wanted to escape Charlotte....we headed for the mountains instead. 😊
