Those look pretty cool. _________________ I done been assisted by the trees and rivers.

As for choice treat yourself to a good Eurpean rifle such as an AirArms s510 or Weihrauch HW100, you know it makes sense.

And why go single action when there are some solid semi autos out there now? _________________ I done been assisted by the trees and rivers.

Roger good point, unless its a springer, i really dont want another single shot rifle, repeater is a must. i almost sent money to PilkAirGuns again for the Styer, but just couldnt bring myself to spend 2 grand on a single shot rifle, i'm sure its worth it, but.... just not what i want at thing time _________________ "not tonight dear, i have a race in the morning"   Posted: Wed Sep 30, 2009 12:35 am kanyon Silver Status Member Joined: 09 Aug 2008 Posts: 1582 Location: New Zealand Buy that STYER....yer dam p#ssy..

But I think Theoben or Daystate would be awesome too. the recent Daystate Huntsman is a real nice shooter and it's nice and compact too: By the way, Roger, how many Semi-auto's are there on the market? I can only recall that FX to be a real Semi-Auto, those are thirsty for air, and wear down quicker then bolt acitons. Steyr, those are good. Anyone can shoot with one of those. You might also wanna take a good look at some higher end Air Arms rifles. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Wed Sep 30, 2009 1:05 pm dummyracer36 Senior Member Joined: 21 Sep 2008 Posts: 723 Location: St. Louis, Missouri right now, i'm leaning towards the sumantra 2500 with the 500cc reservoir. just dont know if i want the .22 or .25 i already have a ton of pellets in .22...... but they make some wicked heavy .25 that i'm sure the sumantra could push i had been thinking about the career infinity, but i cant seem to find anyone in the US that still has em in stock _________________ "not tonight dear, i have a race in the morning"   Posted: Wed Sep 30, 2009 8:41 pm sniper Silver Status Member Joined: 28 Nov 2008 Posts: 3752 Location: Star, Idaho all i can say is definitley euro!!!!!! your dilemma reminds me of my burner days. desicions desicions. me personally though. hw-100. sexy sexy. _________________ I believe in gun control, If there's a gun around I want to be controlling it.......   Posted: Fri Oct 02, 2009 8:07 pm dummyracer36 Senior Member Joined: 21 Sep 2008 Posts: 723 Location: St. Louis, Missouri after making a few calls to PA, and speaking with my usual sales rep, and the tech dept. ..... i'm more confused on what i want!!! i HAVE decided that i want a .25, or an EXTREMELY powerful .22 needless to say, i didnt place an order today. i have my Logun, so my "tactical" looking rifle slot is filled, i have my Benji, so my "classic" single shot bolt action slot is filled..... anyone have any "insider information" on anything new that might be coming out, that is worth waiting for? _________________ "not tonight dear, i have a race in the morning"   Posted: Sat Oct 03, 2009 1:24 am kanyon Silver Status Member Joined: 09 Aug 2008 Posts: 1582 Location: New Zealand dummyracer36 wrote: right now, i'm leaning towards the sumantra 2500 with the 500cc reservoir. just dont know if i want the .22 or .25 i already have a ton of pellets in .22...... but they make some wicked heavy .25 that i'm sure the sumantra could push i had been thinking about the career infinity, but i cant seem to find anyone in the US that still has em in stock I have a feeling the Career Infinity .22 & .25 are no longer made.. Could be wrong about it... .22 = 45fpe / .25 = 53fpe If yer want power and a lot of it,,,, Daystate air ranger .22 ....80fpe Evanix AR6 .22.....65fpe Evanix make them in AR4 .177 AR5 .20 AR6 .22 Never made a AR7 .25 Pete   Posted: Sat Oct 03, 2009 10:29 am rsterne Moderator Joined: 15 Jan 2008 Posts: 2998 Location: Coalmont, BC Whatever it is, I would recommend a regulated PCP like the HW100.... I'm sure there must be others.... If I was spending over a grand, I wouldn't want to put up with the velocity variation of a non-regulated PCP....
