    Collecting

    Which marque of air rifle/pistol have you collected the most of?

    I know (and I should apply this to myself) that some people have one example of each of their favourite air rifle/pistol and leave it at that. But is there a gun that if you see at the right price you simply cant tun your back on and walk away

    The reason I ask this is that I have succumbed to yet another FWB Sport on the weekend. Condition 7.5/10 and topped with a Tasco scope I alwasy fancied getting my hands on (cant recall the model number but its the one that goes from 1.75-5x40) My sixth FWB over time. All bar one I still have

    Soooo, what cant you resist

    Original/Diana. Plus anything else interesting that I like the look of. Usually tend to be German also. I make sure they all get used- no cabinet queens.

    I also picked up an old Tasco 1.75-5x 40 PA quite recently. It's a goodie.

    Had a few Sports now, down to two, but every time I see one I'm tempted.
    Park Rifles for me, can't resist them.
    A few, very few, scopes I can't resist either.

    For me its rifles that tack drive,scopes that are very bright.
    Been through most of the rifles I lusted over years ago. Had them and passed them on; most weren't half as good as the hype they had.

    John mate, I think most of us know you collect anything with 'air' preceding it, rather than any particular make!

    13 Airsporters - I'm jealous! But good on yer!
