    Heirloom airguns

    How many of you guys have a special enough airgun to you that you intend to keep and try to pass it on.

    If so, what is the gun and what makes it so special that you would like it to stay in the family for genarations

    A couple of my Guns are a case of they'll be passed onto those that need them when my times done with them as they were given to me to get me started so its only fair.
    Only one so far thats a definate Heirloom is the Red Ryder, I've customised its appearance and soon will customise its guts so likely she'll be kept in the family for any new shooters to start with.

    I have the Mk1 Meteor that was given to me aged 12
    Had it for 50 years
    Taught my son and daughter to shoot with it
    She's a keeper
