    Good Points: Comfortable to hold, nice weight, surprisingly powerful for the price (about 90mt per second), easy to assemble and disasemble. feels quite sturdy when assembled, the see through version is easier to see what's wrong inside when it doesn't fire, easy to cock the spring, useful front grip


    Bad Points: The auto loader isn't too good at it's job. Quite tricky to get the balls into the into the firing channel of the cartridge. Plastic balls can jam up a bit. The front grip sometimes clicks up or down the rail by a notch.


    General comments: When I bought this gun I knew nothing about BB guns, but wanted something to scare cats away that wouldn't be too harmful. I was advised by the merchant that this was the best BB gun he had, and was the most powerful. I cannot remember what I paid for it, but I am sure it was less than I have seen online ( £50- £80 aprox) I think I only paid about £40. It does jam up a bit, especially when using plastic BB's. But there never seems to be a good reason for it jamming. It will fire shot after shot with no problem, then suddenly start to play up. I have only just started using steel BB's, but they seem to be a lot more reliable than plastic BB's. But of course the steel ones do cost a lot more. It is definately getting some steel BB's just to see the power and acuracy difference. I have nothing else to compare this rifle to, but I think it's a pretty good job all round.
