One aspect I love about this hobby / sport is looking back at the airgun scene when I was growing up in the late 70s and early 80s. I’ve bought a large batch of Airgun World and loving the pieces by Fred Grimwade (especially his review of the Webley Vulcan in 1980), the Country Gun columns by Arthur Shepherd, John Darling (of course) and Gerald Cardew and Geoffrey Boxall. I know that very sadly JD passed away many years ago, but what became of the others mentioned? Their contribution to my enjoyment is timeless.
