Reliving a childhood that air guns were forbidden in the house or in possession, the saying was "little girls don't play with bb guns". I enjoy shooting but the noise made it restrictive and ammo was beyond the limits of my income, then I found GTA and it was all over for me. Now I enjoy air gunning at its fullest and the income can handle it (sometimes). It's a passion, addiction, obsession, a need, or just plain down right fun to do. It's what is in your heart that makes you an air gunner.

Ok, my NEW fav answer!We were allowed and encouraged to shoot, but only after our chores were done or after cleaning up the dinner dishes, etc. The boys had a LOT more time to shoot, since they had very little work to do around the house. Yeah. Sexism. Ugh! :-(Sooo glad to be living in the 21st Century, om my, yesss! :-)
Doing the same thing over and over thinking/ knowing/ believing it will be better next time.

What makes an airgunner an airgunner?Buying pellets for a caliber you don't own. I now have a tin of .20 Benjamin pellets.
LOL... you just graduated from "airgunner" to "prepper".

I almost did the same with my predator pellet order, but in both .20 and .25, since I am also a prepper, lol, and I am prepping to rebarrel some Prods and Discos. Disco #3 is now on the way to me..
I do not consider myself an airgunner - it's just a pastime. I am most assuredly NOT addicted. Still, I can answer YES to each of Steve's criteria questions.Perhaps it's time for a bit of introspection and reevaluation.
