I’m actually nearly sorted for the shooting side of things. 
I just need another scope, another rifle+ scope+ nice bag, 3 or 4 pistols and that Winchester underlever rifle with the brass cases and I’m done.

Acre or two of land as well!

One of my other pistols is a Gletcher Colt 1911 a1 Co2 bb pistol with blow-back and fully field strippable: 0E4F8748-1126-4172-87E3-F9B4CA49EE40.thumb.jpeg.f4fc8670ffd5f8f686ecae22de6f9f73.jpeg

I took my new bolt action Ruger M77 chambered in .44 mag out last night for the first time being fired, ever.

 

Had a fair bit more bang and recoil than I had anticipated, and I was using handmade loads there were 0.1 gn over minimum load (According to the Lee reloading manual anyway) I was worried about the round not leaving the barrel, no chance of that happening!

 

Need to make more bullets now.

I only have two pieces, need to buy a rifle too, but still not decided what... Thinking about something chambered in .308

 

First one is  CZ SP01 shadow viper, which is originaly a CZ 75 shadow, but heavily modified at wafen oschatz in germany. 6inch barell and custom milled 6 inch slide. Also trigerring mechansim is changed. Really a great piece, it can make hole in hole at 25m 😁 chambered in 9x19mm

 

Second one is a S&W 14-3 revolver chambered in .38special with 6 inch barrel. With this one we have a love and hate relationship as just can't get used to it... trigering is very smooth, but it just don't want to cooperate with my hand 😅

 

 

EDIT:  noticed just now, that you are talking about air rifles... After some search, i see that in UK things are very hard on shooting sport. Is it even possible to get firearm license?

I live in EU country and the law is not easy about that, but at least it is possible...

Yeah it's possible, but its a pain in the arse.

 

Basically you need a "good reason" to own a firearm. You need to be a member of a shooting club/range really, or own land/have the licences for hunting. They simply wont give you a licence because you want one.

EDIT: Apolgoies I am not sure how to orientate the pictures the right way up, maybe you could sort that?

 

Thats the Ruger and my other rifle which is a Chiappa M1-22 - which is basically an knock off of the US M1 Carbine but its chambebred for .22lr as a pose to .30 Carbine.

Nice! I’ve got my eye on something, i sold my Maverick a few weeks ago and want to replace it with something a bit more handier, the Maverick was a bit of a monster 😂

AJ, Firstly, nice piece .
Secondly, what’s your thoughts on Reximex as a owner, I like the look of their rifles and quite fancy one. Been out of the game for a few years and haven’t heard of them before.  All the reviews I’ve watched  say good things but I always take those with a pinch of salt.

Was looking at a HW110 for a second gun. Got my RM8 Varmint as a workhorse/ clanger but been put off the 110 after trying one out, just didn’t like the feel ( could get used to it over time I suppose) and with the power drop issues still around I’m not that keen to lay out that amount of money and not have 100% faith in it.

Video on YouTube put up today by Houston Jones and Kentucky Ballistics, I won’t put a link up as not sure it’s suitable, but it’s very funny! Kentucky is testing various non-lethal rounds on his ‘friend’😂
