In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
Well apparently I still qualify for the youth section of collectors corner.
Short of joining the Conservative Party or the Anglican Church it’s very much the only youth section I’ll ever see again
Morally flawed
Poll looks like it’s averaging 60 yo so far.
“Let us not dwell on the distance we have fallen short, let us dwell on the distance we have travelled" !
I would have been older, but my Dad was in prison...

Quite a few names we don't seem to see anymore since the 2014 Poll.

That’s interesting. On your 2014 poll the “under 45” section would be the largest chunk, albeit by combining the 2 sub categories it was split into that time. Doesn’t look like it is now!

Since Eddie (Edbear3) wasn't banned from the BBS but rather declined to re-join after a spat with a mod, I'll put his age here: 66, 67 in January. Fortunately, he's active on the other UK airgun forum.

Looks like I am in the minority, I wonder why.😟😳

That was such a loss of a really decent fellow from the BBS. Apart from delving deep into the power and accuracy of the Bsa Improved D, he must have spent many hours kindly applying his expert engineering skills to repairs on members rifles, including bringing one of my .22 Sporting Patterns back to life after a 20 year hiatus.

I guess I don't exist according to this poll...
