De-lurking

Hello, long-time lurker.

I like older airguns, especially the ones I couldn't afford to buy as a teenager in the 80s.

I have a few. The pistols currently getting a little light exercise are a Diana LP6M, an FWB80, and a .22" BSA Scorpion (second model).
Oddly, I don't reallly get on with the FWB, but do get on well with the Diana.

Thought I'd better introduce myself properly rather than hide in the shadows.

Hello Geezer,

And welcome to the forum.

I too like the older air guns. Today's offerings, especially pistols, are very samey.

My first Airgun magazine was the Airgun World Summer Special, from 1978. It had centre pages showing all the air guns currently available. I used to sit and covert many of them for hours at a time.

Over the years, I have been picking them up one at a time.

Kind regards,



Phil
