Please use interpunction and capitals because your post is reasonably annoying to read especially because they are missing i hope you will understand and we can be good friends because we share the same hobby thats great because it means that by the medium of internet we can share our experiences trough fora but i guess you already knew that and thats why you came here to ask us lot if someone around here might now a nice shooter to buy from the money you made while doing your job i think you might wanna check out the benji disco because thats a cheaper rifle which is apart from the repeater breech basically the same i guess as the benji marauder crosman does that a lot of times welcome aboard thanx take are now

Sorry if this offended you, but dang man! You just didn't apply ANY bit of grammar to what you just wrote there. Using the return key a couple of times works great too. Shocked

Are you in a hurry or something? Neutral

As far as airguns go...

You could look at a Diana 34 in .22, it will probably do great on rabbits and squirrels. Plenty of power in that rifle. After that a BAM/XISICO/WHATEVER B-26(-2) might also suit your fancy.

You could also go for the real thing in stead of the B-26 and go for the Beeman R-9, or Weihrauch HW95 (if you live over here). It's a little more cash, but you've got a bit more of a fancy rifle on top of that too. Mr. Green

Oooh, tough one... I'm not on your side of the pond, but if you look around on the forum a bit I'm sure you'll find something. "Gunbroker" springs to mind. Neutral

Or....if you're mechanically apt and have the desire, you could get any of the 22xx crosman's and modify it, making it a complete custom job for yourself and still be under that $500 mark.

Take a look over at Airgun Artisians what can be done with any of the 22xx series of pistols/rifles for examples.

I heard about those gas piston deals and was curious. But if they keep dropping the price and if the fps is anywhere near to what they advertise, I'll be owning one soon.
