Air Arms Owners Club

Not really posted on here properly for some years now, I was a member of the original old forum back in 2007-2010, there's a few names round here I still remember and lots of new guys too.
Sadly a car crash put me out of action of shooting and I lost my hobby of 30 years.
Shooting was a major part of my life, if I wasn't at the range or out hunting then I was shooting HFT with club I was a founder member of Fort airgun club in north Wales.
Bought myself an airpistol a few years back but not used it a lot until my 8 year old son showed an interest I bought him one and well here were are again 13 years later, im sure there's a section for posting our guns so ill pop a post in there.
This was always my favourite forum with some fond memories of fun time and good people some of whom have passed away now and some crazy people if anyone remembers tweety and his imaginary gun collection lol
Anyone hopefully I see some familiar names and some new ones
I don't own and Air Arms rifle at the moment but didn't for some time back in the day, but if my boy James keep showing an interest i'll invest in a TX200HC for some range time
Thanks
Edit looks like the forum is a bit of a ghost which is a real shame, so ill post some pics in here
I bought my boy a co2 SMK Victory and red dot
Myself being a springer fan bought a Weihrauch Hw45 and BSA 240 Magnum

Keeping OK mate, 5 grandkids now how time flies, when I first signed upto the aaoc my children were children
I get a call from zingpow everynow and then,on saying that the last time he rang was about two months ago.
He has mentioned you and hanna in the past and was wondering how you all were doing.
He is still as mad as a box of frogs and still riding his motor bikes.
Next time he calls I will point him in the direction of this post.

Nice to see you’re doing well. Not like the car you had the accident in. Andy kept me up to speed at the time.
Great that your passion for shooting is rearing it’s head with you son showing an interest.
The name has stuck for you knob log I’m afraid.
The last time we spoke you were munching through a box of cakes at a meet up, how time flys by
All the very best
