I had the privilege to work with Steve Criner from “The Dog Soldier” TV show recently.

Are you an airgunner? I think it […]
Short Delay Turns into a lot of Airgun Fun!
You ever have one of those trips that just seems to go on and on? Well, my original plans were to have been back in Havasu late last week with plenty of time to crank out some work product for the blog. I’ve grown to write all my plans in pencil, because you just never […]
The Experts at the Round Table
One of my great pleasures is to participate on the TV show American Airgunner. The show, which airs on the Pursuit Channel (the 2013 season is currently showing on the Sportsman’s Channel!), is all about airguns and what you can do with them.

Air Venturi Bronco Target Pro – Part 1
The subtitle really says it all. You don’t always need magnum powered PCP or spring guns with big optics to shoot accurately. What if you want to just work on your sight picture, trigger control, and overall technique? What if you wanted to NOT feel like you’ve just been to the gym after having shot […]
The Benjamin Discovery – Field Tests
We are going to wrap up our core review on the Benjamin Discovery today. I think I’ll twist someone’s arm over at headquarters about holding on to it for a while, indefinitely really. There’s always something new you can do with the Benjamin Discovery! In any case, let me go ahead and set the scene. […]
The Benjamin Discovery – Cleaning and Shop Tests

The Benjamin Hand Pump – Included with The Benjamin Discovery Rifle Kit
