    Good shooting!

    Get yourself on Umarex Boy's club league, it'll sharpen your interest.

    I've got the Beeman HW40 lookalike and it's a good enough gun.

    As for you Jason, shame on you. At my age I don't need another dead-eyed dick to compete against.





















    Okay Okay. So it was reasonable shooting, come on in and join the boys.

    Good luck, Phil
