Serpent Arms Air Guns 550L 28ga Shotgun Experience
Struckat:
As a kid I lit off a 16ga single shot and was not at all prepared for what was about to happen.
I have battled the resulting flinch for the rest of my life.
Back_Roads:
Here is a better comparison of the Serpents compact size, about 6" longer than my Air Force Talon SS :o
They also offer this with a .45 cal rifled barrel, or just buy the barrel and top hat shim, and easy swap, I am considering doing this vs. chopping the barrel on my Piledriver 8" to make it manageable in a small blind LOL
PS It is still holding air, even gained a few pounds by coming inside to warm up 8)

When I was about 13 and 98 lbs "ish"... Dad and my older step-brother let me shoot a Marlin .444.
"Topsie-Turvey" is the best way to explain it. ::)
Back_Roads:
I had to dig through a bunch of one minute clips to find the "scope cam" footage of the shot I took at the pumpkins. since I hold the barrel towards the ground to get the best leverage to cock this beast, all the video starts out with a bunch od dead leaves. ;D Looks like the shot went high and right, my bad LOL
Back_Roads:
I have spring turkey season on my mind, I have to wait till beginning of May to fill my tag, but one can never start too early ;D
I was still working out my optics options as the included red dot was not the best for my needs. Hmm scout mount a pistol scope, not bad but not quite right. Ok lets swap out the Monstrum 1.5 x 20 prism with circle dot. First attempt sent me looking for a rail extension, then I saw I could flip the factory rail 180 and get the results I needed 8)
Now for a day to field test the optics and different bb loads. ;D 8)
I have the $60.oo N/V mounted under to use as a Tacticam of sorts, I think I can flip the image in video editing ???
