Folks I just pulled the trigger and purchased my first PCP in .25 cal with Hilpump. There was a 10% off sale at PA with free shipping for Irish Day being I got some Mick in my blood I must celebrate.
After much pressure from the King of Evanix Manny the Bullpup Pirate I bought a WindyCity ll.

Congrats and good luck with it. A .25 should have some serious knock down power. I got the same e-mail from Pyramyd Air for this one day sale. Very tempting, lol.

Mike if she is too loud she is going out for a tune. She may go out for a tune anyhow to get her numbers up and trigger smoothed.

When I finally looked into the water from the cliff above and jumped, it was the Rainstorm ll I ordered with a 10% discount and a Hilpump. Then I thought what did I do? I went back onto the PA website and headed straight to the Windy City ll knowing I was cancelling the Rainstorm ll order which i did this morning but before leaving their website I purchased the Windy City ll. The Rainstorm was back ordered anyway and who knows how long it would have taken. I spoke with PA today and everything is squared away. Thought it might have shipped today but I have not received any confirmation yet.
Excited and as usual impatient.

Will squirrel. I do wish she had a power knob like an FX to dial her down for practice plinking. Gonna have to build up my back stop which has already been shredded from my .22 springers. Not certain what to use had plexiglass between ply but plexy is shredded from shootin in the cold it shattered.
