Ok, I'm sitting on the couch and my dogs start barking from loud bangs. Not fireworks, my neighbors adult son (who is caring for him), is out back shooting at a tree with a can nailed to it. Of course I go over there and talk to him. He is shooting with a SA that he says is the eqivalent of a 9mm. I could barely pull the thing on top to chamber one. Then when I was trying to pull the trigger, I thought maybe there was nothing in it. By the time I pulled it hard enough for it to go off, I have no idea if I was still aimed at the tree or not. I'm also deaf now with ringing in my ears. So I see what you guys mean about the SA. Do they have anything quieter? lol..
Don't worry everyone, I plan on buying new and having lessons and having it registered to me..
