I find it interesting to see how many kinds of each type of power plants are offered on PA compared to the sales popularity. The blow pic is for pellet air rifles. With pistols (not pictured) C02 leads by a long shot (understandable so)
Yes tempted but lots of mixed reviews as you say. I don’t like some I’ve read on line about troubles with the pump linkage. It’s like a lot of reviews I read (seems even more so on china guns). You just hope you get a good one.
Article Says the HW30 is 6lbs 8oz. Hmm. AOA lists it at 5.5 lbs. In Ham’s testing of the HW30N it also came in at 5.5 lbs too. I believe 6.5 lbs is for the HW 50S. No biggie just wondering where the extra pound came from 😊
Mine shoots great. My first one died after about 200 rounds. Barra replaced it. The replacement is about a year old and doing fine. Parts? I am scared to think about that lol.
Looks interesting. I keep waiting for a multiple shot break barrel to pull away from the rest. Maybe even a high end (or higher end) product. I do think Umarex for the option of using open sights. Sadly something Gamo didn’t see fit to do.
Looks like a Crosman Forty (same looking screw pattern on one side). But the Daisy might be a little hotter. It’s listed at 420 fps and the Crosman at 400 fps. Link: Daisy Red Ryder Pistol - Daisy
Well the Crosman 3622 and Beenan QB Chief are a couple that come to mind that have a 2000 psi fill. 25 shots for the Crosman and 35 for the Beeman (50 if the Beeman is in 177 cal). Those are unregulated. I and some others believe a lower pressure pcp can be made that conserves air.
I had one in 22 cal. All metal and a gold colored trigger. Sadly now a metal breach is not available unless its done afterwords. And the sights were metal sights. A real usable rear sight.
