    Did Anyone else buy themselves a Christmass Gift ?

    For christmas I bought 2 collector grade air pistols I have really wanted. First was a boxed Acvoke complete with unopened Acvoke pellets, and second was a Warrior marked with the A&F import stamp Abercomie & Fitch ( See page 16., Encylopedia of Spring Air Pistols 2nd edition.). The collector who sold me the airguns said, Congrats you own a complete Accles & Shelvoke lol.

    Cannot figure out how you attach pics.

    They sound the sort of present I would definitely like to have found in my stocking. I am sure we would all like to see pics, and I would be happy to put them up for you in this post if you want. Just email them to me.

    Cheers

    A Phoenix Hy-Score pistol. Wanted one of these for a couple of years now. Very pleased with it. 😁



    Too many guns, or not enough time?

    Out the box, probably the best PCP rifle I have owned, dead accurate, superbly well put together.
    Call it 'The Mistress' as the wife doesn't know of its existence.

    When you post a message on the forum, above where you type your message there are various icons. The icon you want is the tree inside a square just below the yellow smiling face. If you hover your mouse above the tree a tool tip should pop up reading Insert Image; however, before you can insert your image you will need to upload it to an image sharing site, I recommend https://imgbb.com/ find your image file on your computer, upload it to the website then right click on the image and chose Open Image In A New Tab. Click on the new tab you have just open and you should see nothing but the image, no surrounding webpage. Copy the URL of the image from the navigation bar at the top of the screen, it should look like this https://i.ibb.co/7rHJ8S8/unlucky.jpg

    Now I am going to post the image using the URL I just used above by clicking the Tree Icon, then pasting the URL into white box that pops up, then I will click OK.
