With the amount of shooting I like to do I have become a huge fan of the newer modern air guns, the good ones can produce gilt edge accuracy, and enough power to hunt with all for a reasonable price per shot compared to even low end bulk 22 ammo. Today I upped my game and put together a Weihrauch 25 cal gas piston rifle for mostly small game. German made and it reeks quality, everything about it is first rate, fit and finish along with a great trigger, just outstanding. The one drawback with many of the better air rifles is they are heavy and this one weighs almost 9 lbs. That was a big determining factor on my scope selection, I got a couple of 4x12s and a 6.5x20 sitting around but I feel I really do not need that much magnification on a 50 yard hunting-plinking gun along with putting the weight in the 11 lb range. So for now at least I mounted one of my favorite scopes on the Weihrauch, a 2.5X lightweight Leupold, I have several of these scopes mounted on Deer rifles and I love them. Took it out to the range for a quick sight in and at thirty yards I made several 5 cent coin size ragged one hole groups, I was thrilled and I do not think I would have shot any better with the 6.5X20 mounted. I have a big selection of various pellets to try so hopefully when I get some time I will really put this rifle through it's paces and have more to report. Al

I bought my license online this morning and the process was seamless. About time we got rid of the back tags!

Went to town hall this morning and got my new paper license and doe tags ...got a 9m and 9a. I didn't realize that you don't need back tags anywhere in NY State, there is no large print out of your back tag number. And they didn't charge a fee for printing out the tags.

Hopefully, youll get some day shots too.
