That's a beauty. That's a model that I have on my list.

Thank you for jump starting this section. I'm still working on other things and posting has been limited.

That is a very nice photograph too.

It has the weight and balance as a 1911.

Nice to see your P1, it is a great looking pistol.
Here is my Daisy Avanti 747 Triumph Match. I got it from our mutual friend in Texas.

I was around 5 yrs old, my dad bought it in a little hardware store near a summer cottage we had. Just shoots BB's but I took down a lot of bad guys with that pistol in the early years. Helps when you have a couple dozen "bullets". It still works fine, just kept it clean and oiled.

Thks, it has some sentimental value plus some retro cool too. I actually bought a new holster for it last year. It needed something to complete it. Hangs in the house just for nostalgia. Canadian law is not a big fan of actual hand guns...

That's a beauty for sure, Sir H.

I have become TOTALLY into air guns. In fact, I have barely shot my .22s for the last month or so.........

Right now, I have 3, all Umarex.

P-08, Colt Python, and Umarex Surge. The latter I got off Wallmart for $77 with a cheap scope.

The thing is, shooting an air rifle is like learning to shoot again. The technique is completely different than a firearm. It also takes forever to break these springers in......

But I'm hooked on airguns :D

Shooting an air gun is good practice for shooting rimfire rifles. With air guns the follow through is so important that to shoot them well you must master it.
