I have been notified that Santa is making a list, checking it twice and all that other stuff. So, what would you like to see Santa leave under your tree(air gun wise)? Me, I would love to see a Barnes Ranger Delta .32 Magnum under my tree(but I am not going to hold my breath). Lawdog

A Webley Patriot .25. I won't be holding my breath either. Santa just doesn't understand.

Well, maybe not under the tree, since the hunt for the desired airgun is sometimes as much fun as actually having it, but I'd like to come across a Sheridan Blue Streak in decent shape. Preferably one of the older ones, before Crosman. I don't want it mint, as I'd like to clean it up a bit myself, but it should function mechanically, hold air, and shoot hard. And if Santa is really listening, I'd like it to cost me less than $75 total.

I won't grarantee the price but have you checked out the air rifle auctions at Gun Broker - http://www.GunBroker.com or Auction Arms - http://www.auctionarms.com/ as they have a number of Sheridan's go up for auction all the time. Lawdog

I'd like a spare target pistol, scope, targets, ammo and shooting box that I can keep in my car so I can do some pull over and do some dry firing if I feel the need to practice a routine. Or if I pass a new range I can just whip in and do a little shooting. I'm not holding my breath for that either.

I would like a Bauer Mini Verticus air compressor with 6000 psi DOT air storage system, but it won't come in this year. :cry:

I have been looking at them. There are a few pretty inexpensive ones listed right now, but it looks to me like the same rifle is up on a few different auctions, which doesn't give me that warm, fuzzy feeling about them. I'm from NJ, which has issues with airguns, but I travel to other states shooting Highpower and I'd live to find a CB9 at a flea market, pawn shop, or a garage sale, if nothing else but for the story of how I found a diamond in the rough.

Thanks for the heads-up though.....I appreciate it.
