Hello,
My name is David and I live in Wisconsin. I've loved shooting since I was just a lad and probably shot 10,000 BBs through my old Crosman 760 back in the day. I'm new to airgunning now, doing it with my son who signed up for air rifle in 4H.
I am also into ham radio and brewing beer.
Best regards.

Welcome to GTA David!
Cool hobbies you have. Great to hear you're airgunning with your son. He's a lucky young man.

Welcome, David from Wisconsin! We do have a lot of Davids and Daves on our forum. Airgunning must be in y'alls genes. OH that's right, we have a Gene too!
It's great to hear that you are shooting with your son. We will be happy to help you anyway we can, so if you have questions ask away. The forum has a great library and there is a search feature that will give you more results than you will want to read. And then there are all the great members who pretty much own just about any gun you might be interested in. Most like to answer questions and give advice.
I have done a little ham radio in the past but left the beer alone! Two out of three ain't bad.
Welcome again, David

Games played with the ball and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind. Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks."

Welcome David, very nice to have you with us
Air gunning is a great way to spend time with your son.
I'll be looking forward to your future posts.
