    Just received and quickly shot a few pics to check IQ and function. 3 Thumbs Up! This thing is pretty awesome and fills the IQ/speed gap between the 16-50 and the 50-230 with the FL that I really like to use. NOW, do you think my G.A.S. is gone? :confused-14:

    Congratulations! I love that lens. And to the last question, no.

    You must be telepathic, or something.......just got through ordering a new X-E3 package! Took advantage of Ebay's discount. NOW do you think my G.A.S. attack is over???

    No. Resistance is futile. Mine lasted over thirty years...

    Yeah, I sent a jinx your way when you posted that eBay discount code. I did resist, however. I have been particularly susceptible to GAS at times, and I'm really working on banishing it entirely. Seriously. Now stop snickering, all of you!

    Wow . . . now that's an area where one can spend a ton of $$$. I used to thumb through catalogs drooling over the $1,000+ air rifles. Haven't done that in a long time. I do have a Benjamin .22 that was produced after they were bought by Crossman. I used to yearn for one of those as a kid, and finally got one as an adult. I did feed my GAS a little recently by purchasing a Seagull S6 Slim acoustic guitar. That makes 6 guitars for me now . . . I think that's enough. If only I knew how to play them . . . . just kidding!

    I've been into airguns since I was a teenager, a long time ago. There was always a Beeman, Air Rifle Headquarters, or Great Lakes Airgun catalog close at hand. I sold some guns a while ago, but I still have 30+. My current favorites are an FWB300s, and an HW55MM, oldies fro sure, but very accurate.

    I've been thinking of adding a 50 f2 to my bag, you guys are such enablers.

    Strictly into PCPs myself, but I usually have a 'springer' or gas ram around just for kicks (pun intended).
