It's an Air Arms TX 200 Hunter Carbine (with the Beech stock - no real reason to spend more on the Walnut one) in .177" calibre, and full 12 ft-lbs power (at least, once the spring is bedded in). Of course, if you're called JSR, the previous sentence is redundant, as you already knew that....
Oddly enough, I've never owned an airgun before - I've used them many a time, but I've never (until now) had one of my own. Dozens of launchers, but not one air rifle.
But it's turning out great so far. With the couple of hours I've had shooting, I've only fired a few dozen pellets through it, but it's already proved great fun.
I know it's probably not much at all compared to what some of you guys have (either airgun, or powder-burner), but I've already fallen in love with it. Looks great, sounds great, feels great - even smells great. (And no, I haven't tried tasting it yet.)
It's also good for my fairly small suburban garden - as it's reasonably short (being the carbine version - 38.5" long) and reasonably quiet (having an internal sound moderator) - Perfect.
Is a little heavy though, but that's to be expected, and not really a problem.
You might not be too interested just seeing pictures (I know I wouldn't necessarily be) - so tomorrow, I'll be setting up targets for some proper target practise, and if all goes well, you'll see the results in this thread.
And in case you spotted my comment in the "Eclipse" thread - yeah, this is what I spent my hard earned on, along with maintenance equipment and a small stockpile of pellets.
And yes, I do know the title is bad grammar. I have a precedent - two in fact.
