Looking for Air Rifle Recommendation

[UnknownVT]

When Umarex acquired the Hammerli name in 2006, the shooting world waited to see what would happen. Hammerli is a legendary Swiss maker of fine target arms. Though many of their models have actually been made in Switzerland, they have actually rebadged a lot of airguns. In fact, many airguns were made for them by the former East German firm of Haenel. But the quality has remained high no matter what factory was making the guns. Today, Umarex is applying the Hammerli name to new low- and mid-priced sporting airguns made by new companies. The Hammerli Storm Elite is such a gun.

Thanks for that.

So Hammerli as we have already surmised is merely a brandname being used by Umarex USA for rebadging airguns -
those are not made by Hammerli in Switzerland
or under Carl Walther GmbH Sportwaffen (owners of Hammerli) in Germany.

The "real" Hammerli AR-50 and AR-30
seem to be literally leagues above the Umarex (RWS) Hammerli 850

Lol, I didn't mean to start a huge thing up. But anyways don't mean to hijack the thread but do any of you shooters have pics? I posted mine back on page one. Got bunches more but i didnt want to load the thread up. Also, do you shoot scope or irons? Standing, sitting, rested? What do you shoot at?
