It started innocently enough, just passing the time, reading about modern airguns at www.pyramydair.com/blog.
Then I noticed that Crosman has a neat little on-line tool which allows you to custom-configure one of their hot new air pistols - pretty soon, I had to have one that looked like this:
I was able to talk myself out of it for a little while... until I saw the blog post at pyramid that said how great these new guns were, and how there was a terrific scope called a 'bug buster' with parallex adjustment down to three yards(!), and how you could get all this stuff delivered right to your door with no FFL for about half the price of a real gun, and then, well, I blew about two hundred bucks and now I'm waiting for everything to arrive.
You know how it is.
Meanwhile, I'm thinking of building a bullet trap. Some guys use a shallow wooden box filled with duct seal putty, but I'm thinking that a soft wax, maybe parafin cut with olive oil like the the black powder folks use, so it would be easier to remelt and reuse once it got loaded up.
Has anybody here tried to build a pellet trap like this?
