Oooohhh, my 17 y.o. would be into that big-time, especially the scope, the stand and the gun... He has one, can't remember the brand or model, It's a split-barrel, not a CO2. Not near as nice as yours, but kills ground squirrels well, if you can hit 'em. I used to be able to, but now I can't see unless I use the scope, and the field of view in one of them stinks for finding things... :lol:
The wife wants your red lantern there... the 14 y.o. wants to know what the box with the dots on it is, and if you "spot" animals at night with that flashlight?... :lol:

The box is one of my Crews target for his compound bow. Wife would KILL me if I gave her lantern away! Don't know where that flash light came from. Never noticed it. That AG is a Hatsan AT44 Long QE .25 cal in a Tactical Stock. You have to pump it up to 3000 PSI. The Scope is a UTG 4X16X44 SWAT mounted in FX No Limit Rings. Tell your Boy to visit GTAIf he wants to really learn about Air Guns. It's not a cheap hobby to get hooked on! I'm a Moderator over there.

Don't I know... that and the little remote control cars and planes... YIKES! My boy has been going to a local range with his cousin, shooting, looking, dreaming, etc., but you can't shoot here within county limits. His pellet gun gets him (and me) his "fix" for a while. We gotta find him a better job though... lol
Is that a paper or plastic wrapped around the box? We've got some of those "foam" targets, but they're white plastic wrapped, with their little blue and red striped target circles. I might actually be able to see those fluorescent green dots from a distance... Still wouldn't hitting 'em, but I could ~see~ 'em...
I figured that lantern was a keeper - |;^)

I have a small fleet of five radio control electric airplanes. Tons of fun and difficult to photo except with a camera on board the plane.

That is so cool RR! I been thinking of a drone of some type to put out near my 100 yard target. You ever play with any of the drones?

Oh, I have... I've got two little ones that won't fly now... :lol: 'Course, I'm not the world's best pilot either... I also ruined both boys' little dueling helicopters... Keeping them things in shape is the hard part, but so long as you don't smack tree branches too often, it's probably easier to maintain them... If they put me in charge of one of those NFL wire camera's, I'd probably manage to break it too...

I dropped another $200 into a new pump and fittings for the AT44

Ahhh, but it was ~necessary~ to keep the squeak-click, squeak-click sound down so you didn't disturb the little varmints... or the neighbors.

It's like flying a rock. Planes care which direction they fly and have stability and grace. I especially enjoy sailplanes, although I don't have one now. I do have a flying wing though! This guy has a 5' wingspan And a Parkzone Vapor that weighs under an ounce with about a 10" wingspan:
