Favorite Gun

Let's start this forum off with our favorite PCPs. I shoot the
Benjamin Discovery in .177 cal. It's a fantastic little gun. So
accurate and fast.

I own seventeen springers so far and 2 genuine PCP,s and some
sort of a half breed. QB-79 converted to high pressure air. My
brag rifle i suppose is my Air Arms Twin cylinder carbine FAC in
5.5mm. Sweet little lead slinger. As i am a lover of the
underdog i am steadily modifying my Hatsan AT-4410( Hammerli
Pneuma ) and she is already shooting as well as the AA, with
more power. Trigger is still a dog Though!

Very impressive collection of guns indeed. I wold love to see a
pic of the twin cylinder Air Arms. Not sure what caliber a
5.5mm is...maybe in .22 cal?

Our fire arm legislation does not allow us to own an air rifle
in .22 cal. A .22 rimfire bore is apparently 5.56mm while a.22
air rifle bore is 5.50mm, 2thousands of an inch smaller. On that
technicality we may own a .22 air rifle but never speak of .22
but rather 5.5mm. Very important in our neck of the woods!

Oh....I see....that's very interesting indeed. I have thought
about getting the new Benjamin Marauder in .22 cal. looks like a
great gun for the money.
