Help Plant a Tree
You may already know this by now, but the team here at Airgun Depot enjoy giving back in many ways. In the past we’ve donated products to lift the spirits of some who were struggling, to a few deserving veterans and now we’re at it again. This Arbor Day weekend (April 25-27), we’ll be donating 10% of all net profits […]
Benjamin Marauder – Part 2 – Getting ready for the “big fight”
If I’m going to talk about the difficulties that I’ve had getting my AT44 QE up and ready for the showdown against my Benjamin Marauder, then it’s only fair to talk about what it’s taken to get my Marauder up to snuff as well. Where’s the air…? The Achilles heel of any PCP, or at […]
Hatsan AT44 QE .22 Caliber – Part 3
It was range day yesterday with my Hatsan AT 44 QE .22 caliber. I was pretty excited to get out and see how it was going to perform. The first thing I tested was DB levels in a wide open area as compared to an original AT44 .22 cal. The standard AT44 was tipping the […]
Hatsan .22 caliber AT 44 QE – Part 2
Please forgive the delay. My original AT44 QE was all set and ready to go, but then I got a call from American Airgunner that they needed it for the show. Reluctantly I agreed. The good news is that you’ll be able to see my review of the AT44 QE on this coming season of […]
New .22 Synthetic Benjamin Marauder with UTG Scope – Part 1
If you talk to “normal” folk that are into airguns, you’ll find that just about all of them have heard of the Benjamin Marauder. In just a few short years, this airgun has basically taken over the entry level PCP market. Some would even argue (and I’m one of them) that it created its own […]
What makes someone an “Airgunner?”
I had the privilege to work with Steve Criner from “The Dog Soldier” TV show recently. He was gracious enough to grant me a short interview and in that discussion he posed the question “what makes someone an airgunner.” That’s actually a pretty good question and worth exploring. 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. The 2013 season was the first to feature “Round Table” segments which […]
Hatsan AT44 QE .22 Caliber Airgun Review Part 1
The reigning king in the budget PCP airgun arena has been the Benjamin Marauder. Well, there’s a new contender that’s stepped up to the plate to compete for the crown. The Hatsan Quiet Energy series of airguns consists of 4 new models; AT44S-10 QE, AT44S-10 QE Long, BT65SB QE, and the Galatian QE. All of […]
Air Venturi Bronco Target Pro – Part 2
In part 2 on the Air Venturi Bronco Target Pro, we’re going to look a bit more into the shooting cycle and how to get the most out of our little airgun. It does not shoot hard, but you don’t need “hard” to punch holes in paper, which is exactly what the Bronco was designed […]
