Accessorize! (Other Stuff You Need!)
There always seems to be something else I need after I purchase an air gun. Here's my list of things that come to mind:
Gun case
Cleaning supplies
Ammo pouch
Sling
Chronograph
Targets
Target trap or backstop
CO2 powerlets (for CO2 guns)
Scope and mounts
I've been guilty of buying a gun, going home to shoot it, and after my initial session of shooting with it, realizing that I don't have a way of wiping it down to protect the finish (I need a cleaning rag!) Then when I try and put it up for the evening, I don't have a place for it to go (I need a gun case!) If I go hunting tomorrow, where am I going to carry my ammo? (I need an ammo pouch!) I wonder how much power my gun is delivering, and if it is powerful enough for my intended prey? (I need a chronograph!) I really need to sight it in before I go out with it tomorrow into the field (I need some targets!) I can probably do some more shooting in the garage tonight after supper. (I need a backstop!) Uh-oh....I used up all my CO2. I need more gas for my gun! (I need more CO2 powerlets, or a bulk-fill system to allow me to shoot more!)
See? There's lots of "stuff", extra gear, that can enhance your shooting pleasure. If you drop by the home page of Airgun Depot and click on the "airgun accessories" tab on the left, you'll see many of the things we just discussed above, listed for your convenience. You can click on each category in this section and find the extra things you just have to have!
Be safe, and introduce someone else to the great sport of airgunning!
