You guys got a good site going here and Ill contribute if I can. Heres a litt back ground on me, I got into this sport about 1 year ago picked up a Gamo 640 for pest control then figured out it was not powerfull enough so did some research and got another Gamo, a .177 Viper with a scope. Then I found that there are other people just like me with this hobby I found a hole new world on the www. So after a couple months of reading forums and blogs I found that I needed a new gun This one was a RWS 350 .22 .Then I got a b30 in .22 and desided to do my own tuning . First was the Viper with all Maccari parts except I had to make a new rear guide to fit the new spring. I think Idid all right .Next was the b30 I think I did well.Then a lube job on the 350 all was great. But wait I need a new gun so I sold the 640 to help fund a new gun.About 3-4 weeks ago I went to Cobra Airguns store and got a RWS 350 pro compact .177,Ive allready done a lube tune to it. Now I need a new gun so I just sold my b30 and I think Im leaning twards a Talon but it will have to wait a little wile so I may change my mind. So that is it in a nut shell hope I did not bore you to much. Thank you for your time.

I've only been here myself since March, but I've learned a lot from this bunch. It seems like you jumped into the sport with both feet - I'm interested in hearing more. Don't swett the spelling. Nun of us here is perfekt. Post baby pictures and tell us stories! _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Sun Aug 24, 2008 8:50 am broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands No problem with the spelling, but hit return after 3 or 4 sentences in a while. Thanks for contributing to this wonderfull world of wind weapons. We like em airsticks! Sounds to me you're a proper airgunner, who started of with European junk, and ended up with a quality European rifle, but leaning towards a more or less american rifle. Sounds like you know what you're doing and I can't do nothing more then appreciating just that. I'm having a hard time realising what I'm doing myself sometimes: "looks at his pile of Crosman..." In other words, welcome aboard! _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Sun Aug 24, 2008 9:03 am cw Banned Joined: 10 Feb 2008 Posts: 1771 Welcome to the forum. Good choice on the Talon. They are a very dependable and very accurate air rifle. They are warrantied for life and well built.

Currently is setup with 4oz co2 tank and 12" SS barrel with laser for medium range corvidae duty . . . Since the LD showed up this week, the Talon is likely to go back to 'long range' status, since shooting Kodiaks at 980fps for a few dozen shots on a 2500psi fill is pretty effective also. May be doing some other truly wikkid things in the near future, but need to finish a few other projects that were derailed when the water system went ' belly up' again this month.
