I want a red ryder!


When I was a kid, we had a BB gun in the house, which if my father was in a good mood, I’d get to shoot. We’d go out into the wide open area behind our house and aim at beer cans or pieces of wood, and I’d see if my aim had improved from the last time I had picked up the gun. Airsoft guns are fun to use when you live in those wide open spaces, and the air rifles on PyramydAir.com look a lot like the old BB gun we had in the house. From time to time, even my father would pick it up, usually to aim it at some sort of varmit. Those old style air rifles always remind me of the movie, The Christmas Story, where ALL Ralphie wants for Christmas is that Red Ryder gun, and all those adults try to change his mind. Remember when a BB gun was THE gift to give a 10 or 11 year old boy? Those were the days, huh?

Heck, I wouldn’t mind having my own now, to protect me from all the people who ring my doorbell all day trying to sell me stuff. HA! (And I could save 5% on my purchase at the site!)
