Default RE: my pellet gun it is a gun (pic)

Please don't take this the wrong way, as I'm not criticising the fact that you have a pellet gun, but if you really want to spend that money on a gun, and spend it wisely, I'd say save a little more and get yourself a nice .22LR autoloader...like the Ruger 10/22. A .22 is super cheap to shoot ($12-15/500 rounds is normal), accurate and effective to longer ranges, and makes for a great squirrel and small game rifle. A pellet gun is OK for short ranged in-town pest control (NOT that I'm endorsing shooting in town or breaking any laws, or anything[8D]), but for serious small game hunting the .22's a much better option.

Edited to remove the scope comment. The first time the page loaded the pic didn't load up...then when the page refreshed after I posted, the pic came up and I realized that I'd told you to scope a gun that already had one! [:@]

Good luck,

Mike
