this is totally unrelated to the thread.
but the crosman air gun factory is in the town i go to school in (bloomfield NY) and its right down the street from the high/middle school. when i was in 7th grade, crosman air guns asked for a few kids from my school to go and be a "test group" for some of the new product. me and all my friends signed up, and the next week crosman took us all, during a school day (for the entire day) to go see the new product, and play with the new shit. they also fed us a shit ton of free food (cookies, cake, doughnuts, hotdogs, cheeseburgers) and gave us a bunch of free shit. (t-shirts, hats ETC.)
so basically one time i got to skip a day of school to go shoot things and eat candy with my friends. it was cool.
buy a crosman. they are sweet. \
also, i totally understand where this guy is coming from. i get bored and shoot shit with a bb gun all the time, its nowhere near as dangerous, loud, or destructive as a real gun, so you can do stupid things, like shoot targets in your basement. the ammo is also cheap as fuck. i have enough to last me forever and it was just given to me by a friend.
