Noob from England
Hi everyone on this wonderful forum :D,
Firstly, my grateful thanks to Tony for sorting me out out – due to my limited forum knowledge I screwed up when registering (don’t ask) and he put everything right 😎
I’ve lurked for a few weeks to get a feel for the place, had a chuckle at the banter on here and I decided this was a pretty cool place to be! I’m looking to get a .177 Cricket standard in wood / walnut ordered in the not too distant future, hopefully before Christmas but I guess that depends on availability. The appeal of the Cricket for me is it’s widely reported accuracy, quietness, and shot count plus it’s just under 27″ including the shroud & moderator. It’ll end up the usual uk sub 12ft/lb hence .177 caliber choice.
Good to be here on the TAG amongst all you knowledgeable folk,
Ian

That’s encouraging to hear – every little helps at UK levels, also some very fine shooting there Zonk 
Being I have one of each I honestly say my Cricket will out shoot my Vulcan, but not by much. Both are great guns and a blast to shoot.
That was shot indoors.
Thank you Zonk, must admit it was a pretty hard choice between the Cricket and Vulcan – both equally good from what I have read, but personal taste took over and the Cricket won in my case. I’ve been reading like a mad thing in both the Cricket and Vulcan sections, there’s an incredible amount of info on here, I actually found the TAG via the Yellow, I was reading various posts about Ernest Rowe tunes, I reckon we need an Ernest Rowe in England….
Meds? Hell, I’m fast approaching that age myself and that was yet another appeal of the cricket – future med storage facility built in :biggrinn: I’ve no doubt I’ll be asking some questions at some point and I look forward to making the acquaintance of Hoot: (who has his very own Smilie) and Sir Ville and many other good folk on here
:tag: Kaliman, as you’ll see there’s a lot of good reading on both the Cricket and Vulcan on here. Lots of knowledgeable people and lots of ribbing going on here. Pay no attention to Hoot: and Sir Ville as they’re both on some kind of meds…………………………….. :rofl:
Thanks LarryW,
Don’t worry – I am an avid searcher I’ve already learned a helluva lot.
Welcome, lots of useful info here, use the search function. Enjoy!!!!
Regards
