 bb2791's recommendation | |
Very good quality, well constructed, powerful, very accurate
Single shot pellet only, a bit heavy for extensive use, heavy recoil
I got this Sporter 500 at a bit more than USD170 here; which I consider it as a great deal (Compare the Crosman 2100 will cost USD200-220).
This is the most accurate air gun and the first break barrel air rifle I ever owned, the construction is excellent with real wood stock.
Even it is single shot, I consider it is more continence to load compare with the bolt action like the Crosman 760, 2100, Daisy 880, etc. Just break the barrel and insert the pellet directly into the barrel. With the bolt action, it is harder to control the direction of the pellet, and at least no need to worry the pellet will "sneak" inside the BB compartment like the Daisy 880.
For every shot, there will be some white smoke comes out from the barrel. The looks realistic and increase the excitement!
Highly recommended if you don't mind the lead poison.
