Re: Air Rifle Trainer

Well, all of this has me considering getting a bit more serious. The idea of shooting in my back yard is becoming appealing, as I now drive a good bit to get to the range and I go often. So, I am now upping the ante as far as window shopping and am comparing the Hammerli AR20 with the Airforce Edge....

Re: Air Rifle Trainer

Thank you. In my research on line I had been looking at the Challenger along with the Airforce Edge as the possible rifles to choose in the next price range. The one I did find in my price range was the Avanti 887 Gold Medal, at a little under $500. I do understand I need to spend more for air on to...

Air Rifle Trainer

I would like to buy an air rifle to train for my small bore shooting when I cannot go to the range. My only experience with air guns is with cheap ones I had as a boy. The rifles I find online for 10 meter are too expensive for me at this time. Is there a rifle that costs around $500 that has accura...

Re: Small Bore Sights

Thank you very much guys. Those replies are very helpful. Although still ignorant, I feel armed with enough information to go window shopping again. I will not buy yet but at least I will have some understanding of what I am reading in the product descriptions.

Small Bore Sights

I am inexperienced with small bore competition and do not have any clubs or coaches in my area. I am close to buying an Anschutz 1903 position match rifle new, or a 1907 used. If I get a new one I need to buy sights and my attempt to shop for them online has been bewildering. I see a couple of versi...

Red Dot on Air Pistol

I am a beginner and want to buy an air pistol for target work, but I need to mount a red dot due to my eyesight. I have read reviews and looked at many models on line. I believe I want a single pump pneumatic but so far I do not see any which appear to accept an optic mount. Please give me a recomme...
