The wildlife is terrible but i think the crosman A I R 17 is even worse. Like they took the wildlife and cut it up and couldn’t figure out to line the pieces back up. The hatsan semi autos are a close second.

Not the a bad looking m16 attempt of the 1980’s just wished the barrel was rifled for better accuracy. Better looking than the bulldog or the evantix

Better looking than the bulldog or the evantixI do also think the Crosman Air 17 is kind of ugly, but only because they didn't try hard enough to make it look like an AR-15. Relatively speaking though as an airgun it's not all that ugly.I recently posted a want add here for an AIR 17 for my dad and received an offer he couldn't refuse on a working example with it's faux magazine. It doesn't have the cover for the bb port but I've got one off a broken 66 that I'll install for him.
If I remember right, the M4177 rifled barrel is supposed to fit the AIR17. It's pretty close to basically period-correct for us nam-era types. But also looks like a Crosman, ya know? Here's some pics of the 1/87 one I found in The Closet of Lost Gold that I'd bought for my #2 son @ age 8. Gave back to him last Christmas. It had the sling and speed loaders intact as well and functioned normally.
We are safe Rick... every "Gun Guy" I have shown pics to here thinks it is awesome. Can't wait to get my grubby little hands on it.
My AIR 17 is used to shoot BB's. I find it's more accurate with BB's than pellets. Not very accurate with either but it makes a fun can plinker at 50 feet shooting Daisy zinc BB's. I've had several. As I recall, I chronyed one in the high 300's fps. 385 fps or something like it.
Bulldog🤢🤮

I think the Sentry is a nasty looking gun!I really love the looks of mine in a .22 cal with a 4x12x50 Nikko Stirling sitting on top of it...
I think that has something to do with the fact that most of the world does not realize that yes we are grow men but we still need toys to relax with and AG's are way cheaper than a mistress

I do still have some gorgeously-stocked items in my collection, but for me, once I went black, I never went back..
