I'm good. Not been out as much as I'd of liked through other issues and such. Mrs has buggered her knee playing net ball, so been home a bit more. Think this is the thing about that raider of yours and any 'mid priced' airgun for that matter, it's not about how accurate it is, how consistent it is, how many shots it's puts out and all that bull, (granted this isn't a good example as the raider can hold its own with anything) the bond with a rifle is about the experiences you share and the memories it creates. Sounds a bit camp, but we know it's true. My 1600 quid HM, not been out, my 1997 rapid, with me always.... Once I've put away your 97 2 Quote Link to post
