I have a few varying from 0.17 to 9mm. My preference is for the PCP type rifles. They deliver a lot more power than the spring types (aka breaker-barrel), even though some of the "springers" can also throw a punch.

This is my favorite. Air Force Talon that I customized with a longer barrel and heavier buffer for more air.

Talon launched a new model called Condor, which copied what several folks (including me) did to our Talon. Both the Talon and the Condor are single-shot as the spring-type rifles. However, the air tank allows for at least 30 shots.

Photo shows it with a ATN NV scope. This rifle can put a .22 pellet in a mouse's eye at 30 yards. It's made in Texas.

Another great rifle. Rapid 12, marketed in US by Beeman as Super 12. This one shoots a .25 pellet with very high accuracy but it's not as customizable as the Talon. It's also a lot more expensive. Around $1500 vs. just $500 for the Talon. The Rapid uses a bolt action and a 12 rounds magazine. This one is made in England and is the Ferrari of the air-rifles.

My 9mm is a Career. It's made in Korea, uses a 10 rounds magazine and a lever action such as the Winchester rifles. I do not have a photo of this one. It's sound is similar to a 12-gage shotgun and can break cinder blocks easily.

Thanks Guys,

Wiell under the Carbon Fiber shroud is a 21 inch LW polygonal .22 barrel.
At max, it will shoot JSB monsters @ 1100 fpe...70. fpe(foot lbs of energy)
Dialed all the way done, it will shoot kodiaks @55 fpe.

I love my Lonestar VRS REST. I use for bench rest, photo shoots and cleaning cradle.
They stop selling them a couple of years ago........

Btw. If you want to see all the gory details of my build... And the talented guys made happen.

I have to warn people about the recoil because they don't expect it and most don't believe me until they pull the trigger!

I had to laugh when I flinched...I don't even flinch on 50 cals....but I was NOT expecting the recoil from the 48. Funny thing, the 54 is exactly the opposite...it is nearly as recoil-less as a PCP. Very weird.

I had to do a bit of tuning on it to get it perfect. I stripped it down, made sure the piston and spring setup was well lubed, then I used some really good grease and oil on the trigger group. THEN I tuned up the sear engagement and spring tension on the trigger. THHHEEENN I added fiber washers and teeniest bit of loctite to the front screws so that they would stay in place. ( an issue with Weihrauchs ) After that I shot and tightened and shot and tightened the screws until I got perfect 10 yard groups.

It's a stone killer now.

Here's my Crosman Backpacker in .22 Cal. These are fun to build. I bought the base gun from Walmart for $54. Steel receiver $50. Leapers AO mil dot scope $50. Silencer (yes you need one) $50. I did my own trigger job. You can do countless power mods but I like it the way it is. It's suprisingly accurate for a cheap gun. I took it to my parents place in Arizona so my 87 year old dad and I could do some target pratice in the back yard.
