Meet the new MAC…??
So it’s Monday and SHOT SHOW 2015 starts tomorrow, January 20th. I did not make the cut off for media day at the range, so I decided to have a quick lunch with the folks at Inovairtech instead. They are the creators of the MAC35. I’ve had the privilege of working with David, inventor of […]
The Walther LGU .22 Caliber – Part 2
There are times where things just come together. This is one of those times. My first task was to find the right scope. I opted for the Hawke 4-12×40 AO Panorama EV scope. This optic is one of my all-time favorites. It has a floating, 1/2 mil-dot, illuminated etched glass reticle, as well as Hawke’s […]
The Walther LGU .22 Caliber – Part 1
Some 8 or 9 years ago when I first started shooting airguns, the thought of spending $600 on an airgun, not including a scope, was really unthinkable. There was just “no way” that it made sense in any realm of possibility. Now look at me… This same principle exists across the board; it’s funny how […]

Walther LGV Master .177 Review – Part 3
I was hoping to get out and do some shooting outdoors, but the weather’s been cold, windy, and I’m fighting a cold. Since I’m trying to get better and not worse, I setup at my 10 yard heated, indoor range for some extended pellet testing. When time permits, I’ll catch everyone up on the 20 […]
Walther LGV Master .177 Review – Part 2
Let me say right up front, that the Walther spring guns series, which now includes the LGU underlever, are premium airguns that come at a premium price. They are also built around precision accuracy over maximum power, which means that they are probably going to appeal to a more discriminating, and probably older customer base. […]
Walther LGV Master .177 Review – Part 1
There’s an aggressive marketing push that has caused a lot of consumers, specifically new airgunners just getting into the sport, to just focus on gas ram or nitro piston airguns, and to consider traditional metal spring powered airguns as somehow sub-standard. What’s interesting regarding this train of thought, is that the majority of the most […]
