Hello everyone. Been lurking here for the past couple of months before making some new purchases. I have been into airguns on and off my entire life. I got into it pretty deep at one point, or at least as far as I could on what was at the time a very limited budget. I even set up a 10 meter range in my apartment with a silent pellet trap that I made out of an old shadow box and some duct seal. I probably put close to 250k rounds into that trap with my Crosman 1377. I mainly liked the airguns at the time because I did not own a car and it was something I was able to do without leaving the house but once I put my life back together I got pretty deep into PB's. I moved to RC airplanes once the PB's got old and that is where most of my time is spent these days. The on and off PB ammo shortages have made any attempts in the past few years to get back into PB's rather difficult and I figured I may as well start getting deeper into air now that I can afford it and since I am getting a little bored with RC. I blew the dust off my old 1377 and thanks to this forum I found out that the old beater Beeman P17 that I never really thought much of actually has a pretty good reputation for what it is so I now plan to use it more. I also picked up a Crosman F4 BB and two new PCP's. The Beeman 2027 .177 and Beeman QB Chief II .22 . I have not had the PCP's out yet but I suspect a compressor is also in the near future after what it took to hand pump them. Thank you for all of the information that has already been provided.
