I woke up one day and realized...

[Atchman2]

I didn't even realize how many airguns I've bought, sold, and traded!  I was putting one of them away when I realized that I didn't have a place to put it in the rack! Now the guns are leaned against the wall below the racks!  

When I came to the GTA I had a 40 year old Sheridan Blue Streak as my only gun.  Now I have at least a dozen with another one on the way!  The good thing is I can't think of another gun  I "need" right now.  My collection now is topped by a RWS 54 and bottomed out by a some sub-one hundred dollar guns. The funny thing is that I still have favorites to shoot.  I find that I shoot my RWS 350 almost every day. It and my Gamo Whisper are my elder airguns and I really enjoy shooting them both.  When I'm going out to scout for new hunting grounds, the Whisper is almost always in my hand.  I think I did really well with my first two guns and I owe that to the GTA forums.   (BTW the Gamo Whisper was transformed by a GRT trigger-another find from the GTA forum).  

Watch out the addiction is strong! BTW welcome all you new guys.  It is only the beginning.

And here I am working on my third!

I am the same way.  Started with a crosman 760 and the went to a QB-78.  Since then I have bought and sold 10 guns.  Still own 4.  That number will probably go down soon though because I have to fund my Darkside addiction. 

Ohhhhh what would life be without Airguns?

I started over here with a daisy 880.I say that because as a kid I had every pellet gun my parents could afford to buy me.Then as I got older girls,cars and powder burners put airguns out of mind for a long time.When I wanted more info on spring guns I found this forum and its starting all over,only now I have to buy my own guns.I guess like so many others it  the GTA'S fault I have my addition back.

Thank You GTA.Love this place

Your not kidding, I am pretty sure my collection will be pretty extensive as well, seeing I like them all. Rob

ADDICTION?!!  Nobody told me this would be an addiction!! 

I'm mot addicted! There are only 5 or 12 more I want.

Heck, I have expanded my storage and am still running out of space.  A friend wanted me to go in on an order for a couple of springers  but I told him I was full up with .177's, naming those I had.  Then I remembered, oh, that one, and, yeah, this one here.  Then I emailed him, twice, about more I remembered I have.  You know you have hit the wall when you start Jonesin' for a gun you see listed for sale and then remember (and not immediately) that, oh, right, I already have one, somewhere.

So THAT is how you end up with duplicates. ! You have so many you forget you own one.

Hello, my name is Dj and Im an airgunaholic.

When I got here I had a few chinese spring guns, a few pump guns and a big cat. In the last year I have learned how to tune, shoot beter and most importantly how not to kill my guns. It is addictive. I have bought 4 new guns in the last 12 months and now have trouble picking my 470 or one of my 350's to shoot. I rarely shoot any of the others. If it wasnt for here I would have never been peer pressured into my 177 350  and I would not know the amazing quality of German guns. This place is definatly fun and very helpful.

You think if i wake up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat and act sick my wife would let me have another one. Lol!  I've only got 2.

I'm a new guy here but have dabbled in air guns for about 10 years now. I started with a cheap break barrel springer and now I'm not really sure how many air guns I have. Lately I've developed a fetish for Sheridan/Benjamin pumpers....I've purchased 3 last month.... Luckily my wife (2nd) is into shooting and hunting as well. Good thing because I've taken over a lot of closet space with gun cases.

I have 5 and just ordered another one. A MM tuned B-25 in .22 with the bbl cut to 15" with a 10 inch carbon fiber shroud. Roof Ducks and Silo Swans beware!
