    Airgun Collector magazines 1 & 2 - free to download and keep!

    The second issue of Airgun Collector is now ready to view or download at the websites below.

    Massive thanks go again to the many contributors, whose generous donations have made this collaborative effort possible. Hopefully there will be something in there for everyone.

    Please distribute it as widely as possible, via forums, email and file sharing websites etc. The idea is that if anyone wants to read a copy, now or even perhaps 10 years from now, they will be able to get one easily.

    And before you say 'you should have charged for it', I did give it some thought. But everyone involved, including me, has given up their time, expertise etc for free on the understanding that there will be no barrier to readers.

    Hopefully it will not just be of interest to current airgun collectors, but will inspire new ones too, which ultimately will benefit all of us...

    Enjoy!

    Well done Danny and all, I look forward to reading this later.


    I'll leave this in open forum for a while before making it a sticky.




    All the best Mick

    John if you're talking about John Griffiths' article, it's about American Hy-Scores and your pic shows a British-made Phoenix pistol (based on the Hy-Score), if I'm not mistaken. Rob M did do an article on the Phoenix guns in the last issue.

    Many thanks for the enormous amount of time and effort that must have been spent to produce both of these superb publications. It'll provide many hours of me reading and thinking "I never knew that!" If only my old brain could remember it all.

    Hi Danny,

    You will have real trouble to surpass this superb and wholly professionally produced edition for the next issue.

    The bar continues to rise.

    Thanks again for all your hard and freely given effort and to all the other contributors.

    Regards

    Brian

    Thanks Danny, I'd mistakenly thought the article was about all HyScore pistols as I only had a quick flick through! (Was almost alseep!! )
