Congrats oaks , hope she's everything you want her to be ! I feel the same way on waiting for my first pcp also . Rachael from Air Force did tell me they are shipping out the condor SS rifles at the end of the month I can not wait !

Might have to come up an shoot with you Rob when you get it.

Definitely oaks , If it is okay with you I would like to shoot your pcp ? When weather gets a little warmer we can get together and do some shooting . We can work something out to where it would be convenient for both to travel . Maybe we can get a few others we know on this site to also go and meet up and do some shooting . This way we can have a variety of awesome pcp rifles to shoot and try out . It would be a great opportunity for us and others to try a variety of pcp guns ! Maybe we can make something of this . Like a first annual shoot ?

Yeah Last-Ed-Tiger is in NYC somewhere. He might be game.

Definitely , maybe a new post asking GTA members who live around NY,CT who would be interested in getting together to do some shooting and to try other types of pcp guns ?

oakey · « **Reply #29 on:** March 19, 2013, 10:52:50 PM »

Where do we have the area and the space to shoot?

Oakey

rld1965 · « **Reply #30 on:** March 19, 2013, 11:23:19 PM »

I'm sure we can find an outdoor or indoor range somewhere between you and I . I have 3 indoor ones near me and a good handful outdoor ones . Whatever date we can agree on we can use the Internet to search for a shooting range somewhere between where I live "Thomaston CT" and you . Driving doesn't bother me as long as I'm driving a fair amount of distance between us . Even if I have to get a one nit hotel it would be worh the ride and stay to experience shooting a variety of pcp guns . I may never get that opportunity to do that . I do not have gun shops in ct that carry pcp guns so I can not physically see them or try them . I can only go by what I read and view online about these airguns . We can even open this up to all types of airguns not just pcp guns ? What do you think ? Anyone can chime in for some feed back

First annual PCP get together.

Yes it would!

A short while ago I posted a thread asking about airgun shows in Central NY. No hits.

I don't see any activity in the NY, CT, or MA State Shooting events threads, either. I was interested in holding/shooting a bull-puped Mrod, or any bullpup pcp. The GTA event in May, in SC, does look like fun. It is probably just a bit too far, for that time of year, for me.

rld1965 · « **Reply #35 on:** March 20, 2013, 10:38:01 AM »

well hopefully something will come out of this ! you have to start somewhere and if we get 4 shooters or 40 shooters it is a start and i still would interested in going to the shoot ! in our area we do not promote activities such as having airgun shoots and it needs to be addressed some how . even if we know someone that is not a GTA member but live around where we live and they own some sort of airgun we can bring them as a friend who is interested in airgun shoots . i do know where i live there is this place called hogans paintball and he told me he has people constantly comming in filling there pcp tanks. so i think that is another source to advertise a shoot for pcp airguns or airguns . it can be done we just need to be aggressive in careing out on this event . fuzzygrub how far do you live near NYC ? one hour ? two hour ? fuzzygrub, do you have a place where you go and fill your pcp air gun or do you fill your own ? if you do go somewhere to fill your pcp i am sure that there are other pcp gun owners that go there so that would be a good place to advertise for a pcp or air gun shooting event .

I'm 3.5 hours away from NYC, and most of the time, it took more than 4 hours to reach the otherside. Daughter graduated from Hofstra. I like LI, but don't like what I have to drive thru to get there!

I currently have hand pumps, put will probably end up with tanks, down the road. There is a dive shop that will do SCUBA or the CF 4500 psi fills, about 20 miles away. From phone conversations, it doesn't sound like they do many pcps.

I think there are some shooting events in the Hudson Valley. Just haven't found the club, or additional info yet. I have seen the Crosman Pro Trailer on RT 17 coming back from the NYC direction (last fall).

Under the CT Events, there is an old post about a show in CT. Contact Kevin, he sells refurb Mrods and Discos. I'd bet he knows someone or a club you can hook up with.

Great points Rob we can keep putting it out there and maybe even get old Fuzzy out here to boot. Fuzz I own a home about five minutes from Hofstra. My primary residence is further out East less people out this way. We would be happy to have you fuzz.

maybe we should start a thread and see what kind of a response we get from members ?

Good to hear about setting up a meeting: I am IN!!
Cobra airguns used to have an open field where bunch of airguners were shooting,plus free refill from scuba...but they are out of business!It's killing me, I was getting AG from them.
P.S: Also, it will be impossible to have a long shooting session with a hand pump(specially in the summer),lol

Thank you to our advertisers!
