    Hi from the Netherlands

    Hi all,

    I am Rob, 36 years old until next sunday :-)
    When I was young we had a air rifle (Slavia 630) at home as well as a air pistol. Had a lot of fun with that.
    Also shot a lot with a friend who lived next to some farmers where we could shoot, I think it was a sheridan silver streak.

    One year ago I got the idea to buy a new air rifle. boys will be boys i guess.
    After carefully reading I bought a hw50s. It Twanged a lot so I put a maccari tunekit in it and bought a cheap scope which broke after a few months so I replaced it with a Hawke vantage 4-12x40 AO mildot and praktised with it for a year. Nice gun, very accurate, a little hold sensitive. Good for improving my shooting technique

    Also bought a slavia 630 mod 77. in nice shape some months ago. I don't shoot it often but it brings back good memories.

    Today a bought my third air rifle: HW97k blackline 0.22cal with a Hawke Varmint 4-16x44 SF half mildot.
    I wanted to know what all the fuzz is about. After shooting it for a hour I understand completely. Mine is not tuned, and still shoots very smooth and nice and its very accurate.

    Well.... thats me.

    Kind Regards,

    Rob
