I shoot real guns sometimes but airsoft guns are my big expensive hobby other than swords. So I guess, no I don’t really shoot airguns that are actually dangerous. airsoft guns are a cool hobby to, it is nice cause u can play with them more.

Into springers. And farm pest hunting (small stuff). Favorite is the Beeman R9 (HW95) with a Vortek kit. Easier to do hills and dales than with a RWS54 which is quite heavy. My RWS54 does about 800 fps with 14.3 gr Crosman Premiers. But family farms (farms with livestock that attract pests like starlings, etc) have mostly died out here in central Calif, so less and less pest hunting areas available. Sad. I got a huge starling with my tarantula yesterday

Via the Airgun forums, there was a 25% discount from Benjamin/Crossman products (discount code AGNATION). I used it to get all three of my PCP air rifles. It made them a much more reasonable choice. The Maximus is whisper quiet with a TKO suppressor. A desk stapler makes more noise than the Maximus. The Marauder family is also known for being quiet, but mine is ridiculously modified, which has made it very efficient and quiet (42 shots at 40 FPE per 3000 PSI fill). The bulldog has a pitbull moderator, which takes its noise level down from a 22 rimfire, to a high power break barrel level of noise. And yes Reptaronice1, FWB are nice rifles, this one was purchased in need of internal work at a sickeningly low price. It was the deluxe version of the model made in 1981-ish. The exterior is pristine. As a correction, I listed the model wrong, it is a "Sport 124", with the desirable palm swell in the stock and the black and white accent spacers.

I got my tarantula for around 500 with a scope so it was a good price and its a lothar walther barrel. this one looks like mine.

I shoot real guns sometimes but airsoft guns are my big expensive hobby other than swords. So I guess, no I don’t really shoot airguns that are actually dangerous. I've recently gotten back into that sport after over 9years. I also got some of my friends back into it along with a newcomer but they haven't played an actual game at the local field yet since it seems like they are trying to get prepared with gear and whatnot first before jumping in. I myself own a gas blowback M4 that I customized to replicate the SOPMOD II look. One of my old friends recently bought a gas blowback MP7, another has a crapload of MP5s and an AK, and my new friend got a gas blowback M4 CQB model with the shorter barrel. I have a bunch of others but the SOPMOD II is my favorite.

I have a bunch of others but the SOPMOD II is my favorite. I mostly run a Vietnam setup. A M16A1 AEG with carry handle scope upgraded with 6.03 barrel and flat hop is my main gun. It dominates in medium to long range engagements. I also have an M14 but don’t use it often because it’s too heavy, and a M4 commando I’m in the process of modifying to resemble the CAR-15 from Blood Diamond.

I don’t personally own any real firearms although I shoot from time to time at the range with family and friends guns and occasional rentals.
