Does anyone here do airguns? I'm not talking about airsoft. I'm talking about fucking hunting and target guns that use compressed air. I currently own a Benjamin Discovery in .22.
Honestly, if you don't own one, you should. My marksmanship has improved a lot, and I get more trigger time, considering ammo is $8USD for 500 rounds and I can shoot in my backyard.
Pic sort of related, thinking of upgrading to this in .25
22765b No.531036
I thought they were just a novelty until I saw one in action. Great way to hunt small game, though you can't stray too far from the air compressor/pump. Maybe that was just the one I saw, though.

There are some pretty good piston guns that don't need a pump, but they are more difficult to shoot and not analogous to a real firearm. Still, you could always invest in a portable air tank. That will keep you shooting all day long, and can fit in a hunting pack.

There is literally no reason not to own an airgun. Even if you have access to real guns, just get an airgun and plink targets, or hunt small birds/rodents in your backyard.
My uncle used to have one. Sat in his garden and shot at tin cans every time I was at his place.
One time we were visiting him around Carnival. So obviously I dressed as a cowboy, and my uncle let me take the rifle. We took turns shooting, and it was great. We spent the entire afternoon that way.
Another time I was out shooting at cans again. I had taken a break to get a drink, since it was summer and very hot.
When I returned to the cans I noticed that a bird (a blue tit) had settled not too far away from them. I aimed at it, but decided againsts shooting it. Instead I observed how it jumped from side to side, cleaning it's feathers and eventually took off to flight.
Later that day I drew a picute of it. I still love to watch them to this day.
I am not sure why I didn't pull the trigger back then. Either I was a total fucking pussy, or something else. Dunno.
TL;DR Get your kids an airgun.

While not a hunting airgun I might as well post
Probably the only airgun I'll ever own but I bought it because it's neat. The most popular communist era polish airgun, spring action barrel cocked, produced 1972-1977 back when you needed a license for an airgun. It was used in the military as a harmless training weapon, had serial numbers and came with a holster or with a suitcase + kit. Mine is from 1975 ( 1st pic related ), it was pretty cheap, 200 zloty 55 dollars and it shoots well for 10 meters. Fun to kill cans with, real metal, heavier than a tokarev

Well it's pretty much illegal. Out of the box it's adjusted to like 500 fps with lightest .177 pellet to comply with 7.5 J maximum muzzle energy federal regulation for unlicensed air guns, of course you crank it up all the way to 1000 with heavy pellets at which point it requires a license and none of the regulating bodies will bother licensing your airgun and it's too much hassle anyway. As the saying goes, it's not a crime if you aren't caught. Given that you can't legally shoot any gun in the city limits (except licensed ranges where you don't need your 1000 fps), your odds of meeting a cop when shooting it are pretty much zero.

Yes, that's the only airgun I knew about until well into my teen years; it's how it's usually done around here, other than CO2.
But what you're describing has a cost: the air bladder, I was told by someone who'd broken multiple air-rifles, breaks if you go over nine pumps. You only get a couple dozen after-burner class shots. More than that, and you won't even get military-class nine pump shots.
Air guns in the states aren't taken seriously, from what I personally have seen. If you want to get your kid something that isn't a toy, get them a .22lr
Although airguns are good at yelling at kids over breaking firearms safety, without being too likely to actually shoot someone's eye out.

While I'm an American with a small arsenal of diverse firearms, I end up using my air guns more than anything else, and I highly recommend you use one for the following reasons.

Ammunition is cheap, no trips to the range required, no matter how small your yard is, and no neighbors calling the cops on you for shooting.
>The marksmanship skills you learn with an airgun transfer over.
You can even get into "long range" airgun shooting. All the principles are the same, albeit exaggerated to a far greater degree. It is entirely possible to bust out Strelok or Hawke Chairgun, and target shoot at ludicrous (for an airgun) ranges.

I don't know the legislation in Spain, but if it's anything like the rest of Europe, you're going to be going with under 12ft.lbs, or even 6ft.lbs.

Make sure you don't pair it to your spring-piston actoin rifle. Your scope gonna get pulverized promptly. In fact, better don't put your expensive scope on spring-piston rifle, for the same reason. Buy a specialized spring-piston air gun scope. They're a lot tougher than firearm scopes, as they need to be to survive the air gun kick.

Thank god, airgun bread!
I want to get into air gun precision shooting. Budget is the less the better, but it has to be as capable as possible, in .177 or .22 preferably.
What's the better option - spring powered break actuon, co2 88 or pcp? Pcp sounds nice and capable, but they are the most expensive, for obvious reasons. Co2 sound even more nice, but I would be the slave of co2 canisters. Break action or cocking handle are single shot while I want semi auto, but I'm fine with it as long as rifle is mechanically sound and otherwise lovable.
Bonus points for quality replicas of FN long arms, preferably FAL, but SCAR or 1949 is also fine
Ultra bonus points for above, but with wooden furniture

Used to use an old BSA Lightning spring gun to thin the local rabbit population when I was at school. Had a lot of fun with that, although I had to get very close to the little bastards due to 1) the low maximum power set by UK law (12ft.lbs for air rifles before you need to get a firearms license for it) and 2) me not being a particularly good marksman. It helped keep outbreaks of Myxomatosis under control, and put a lot of good meat in the freezer. Had to stop the year before I left school though, a local soccer mum was walking her kids through a field I was shooting in and wrote several very angry letters to the school (it was the schools land) and that got my access pulled. Apparently it would have been 'unwise' to explain to her that as much as little Susan might have been very upset about seeing a little bunny rabbit fall over suddenly it's an air rifle, it's not like their heads were exploding or anything, and as the rifle was suppressed there wasn't even much of a bang to complain about that it was better for everyone, including the rabbits, that their population was carefully managed. Going out rabbiting with the air rifle was one of my real pleasures as a teenagers, and seeing as I switched to Ferrets for rabbit control after that she couldn't even claim that she'd made things better for the bunnies.

Are Gamo 10-shot break action any good? From what I've seen, their magazine looks flimsy as hell. But having 10 shot break action sounds like a very good option - with two 10 round magazines you can have incredible fun at range, comparing to normal break action. Sadly their pistons are so powerful, they can only be 4.5mm without breaking 17J limit for unregistered airguns.

you can shoot your friends with 0.2 Joule and just get angry looks, just be carefull about "sensitive zones".
The only thing you can kill with that is a bug.
My 7,5 Joule .177 pellet goes through 1cm of paper an burries itself in wood after that. (about 0,5 cm deep)
So I estimate around 3-4 Joule (pellet) to reliably kill small animals. You can pierce skin from 0,5 Joule BB and higher though, so be carefull.
However, dont be a fag. There must be a reason for killing.

Is there an infographic laying out the bargains for each ft.-lbs. level? I spent a couple of hours recently looking into them, and wow is there a lack of straight-forward info on airguns. I looked at pyramid air - they even have an article admitting the most important stat is ft-lbs (joules is the communist version of ft-lbs) - but they don't even list it for all rifles. I disagree a bit, I think that equally important is the drop off in ft-lbs of subsequent shots.
I like the Sam Yang (apparently now called Seneca) Dragon Claw. It shoots a massive slug, but it's PCP, which is downright confusing. And it's $600 iirc, which is a crazy amount of money to spend on air, if you can buy real guns where you live.
So I'm wondering, at <$100, what should I buy? At <$200? At <$300? At <$500? At <$700? At <$1000?
