| SkogmannOP trapper S Joined: Dec 2022 Posts: 118 ND | Reading SJA's post about air rifles got me thinking about what it felt like as a kid when I moved up from my Daisy 105 to my first 10 pump pellet gun. I felt like I went from being Davey Crockett of the woods to Arnold Schwarzenegger from the "Predator" movie. My first .22 made me think I was a professional long range hunter. |

| jk trapper J Joined: Dec 2006 Posts: 5,830 Williamsport, Pa. | I had a Red Rider also and was jealous of a buddy that had the Sheridan silver streak. Another buddy had the pump up crossman, both were deadly and we put on drives to wipe out the local bird population.....jk Free people are not equal. Equal people are not free.

Every kid needs a Dog and a Curmudgeon. Remember Bowe Bergdahl, the traitor. Beware! Jill Pudlewski, Ron Oates and Keven Begesse are liars and thiefs! |
