General Comments
I bought two copies of this Gamo Multishot air rifle and ended up returning both. Both had horrible accuracy. About 4" groups at 15 yards ( with scope). I even tried a variety of pellets. Plus the multishot cyclinder doesn't always rotate so sometime you shoot a blank blast of air. Occasionally, the pellets even got jammed or misaligned in the cylinder.

I hardily agree, the Gamo Multi Shot Air Rifle is VERY INACCURRATE and the pellets jam in the magazine and very quickly makes the magazine unusable.(theres another $17.00 wasted. I've personally gone through three magazines in about 700 shots. And yes the magazine does not always advance. I blame the material used (plastic). Seems to me that the material used in the magazine should be upgraded to a fully steel and/or brass magazine that does not wear out so fast. Three magazines in 700 shots is NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!
Accuracy... the only way I improved the accuracy was to install a very heavy scope with a full length four bolt fastener and add lead weight to the interior of the stock to reduce the recoil and improve stability. What is missing is a pinning device that will pin the scope to the top of the rifle and prevent forward to backward movement of the scope.
Rear sight: I found the rear site extremely dissapointing in that even after jacking the rear sight all the way up, it still shot low.
I would be interested if anyone knows of a metal and or brass magazine is available for this model. Either from Gamo or a third party. Why am I asking the general public? All in all the IDEA of a MULTI SHOT IS GOOD, but the product in my opinion is very poor quality, and obtaining information from Gamo is next to impossible.
