Thanks NCG. I leaning to the direction of PCP. When I do I will be going with the AZ guys as they have been great to me. They dont carry all of the brands and accessories that some of the others do but I bet I can find something there to spend money on.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Not to worry, all you have to do is ask those folks and they'll set you up with whatever you need.

Cheap and not very accurate-that’s me. :lol: I think the CO2 was the right choice for me as it’s getting warmer. Ask me again next winter when’s it’s 38 degrees and raining for a month. You might get a different answer. :|

To me the bottom line is it’s something I can jump right into and can do it in my own backyard. :D

... or your basement, garage and so on. CO2 is the ideal for home use.

Hard for me to get excited about shooting anything when its 38 degrees. Thats below my comfort level. My comfort level seems to be changing every year. Wonder if it has anything to do with age.

It has with me. Oh, I'm still very active in winter sports like skiing and snow biking, but those are highly aerobic sports, so you urn up a lot of calories and produce your own heat. Love shooting, but an aerobic sport it is not, unless you're into biathlon. :) As long as I can sit in the sun and there isn't much of a wind, I can shoot and stay comfy down into the teens or less for a half hour or so. Biggest issue at those temps is the cold hands and fumbling pellets.
