do i NEED 2 air rifles ? ? ?

RW, I'd stick with the air rifles for a few reasons.

Versatility.
You can shoot left or right handed with an air rifle, much more accurately than a bow.
You can do anything with an air rifle than you can with a bow, except shoot arrows haha.

Stealth.
Granted the air rifle does make a noise. But it's much more subtle sticking an air rifle to your back than a bow, and it's got a MUCH smaller profile, so is easier to move with, and take up position with. Imagine shooting an air rifle off a rock and the profile it would show, and compare that to a bow and it's profile. Point made.

Adaptability.
Try shooting a bow prone. Enough said.

Accuracy.
Shoot at a target and tell me which has smaller groupings. Practice with both the same amount of time with each, and you'll see what I mean.

Handling.
Let's see your misses shoot a heavy bow, okay, now your kids, or someone else like that. Okay, what about them using the air rifle?

Reality.
Why does the army use firearms and not bows and arrows? Accuracy, adaptability, versatility, efficiency, and lower effort for a higher output.


I'm not saying bows are bad! What I'm saying is that a rifle, even an air rifle, will be superior in performance to a bow and arrow, in the grand scale of things.
