“An average pistol”
Written on: 29/10/2012
I live in Iran. I'd 3 gas pistols. Gamo P800, Gamo P23 and Umerax PPK/s. I like my P23 because it's economic (doesn't need co2 capsules). but it doesn't give me the same power and it's bigger. (read more)

Great gun little noisy, but accurate within 10 metres with right ammo.
I only use gamo pellets as they are the best for accuracy.
For the price its great if you want more accuracy buy a more expensive weapon
Would not recomend it for pest control best buy a .22 rifle for that like a BSA Comet much more humane

I've had it for a week now and shot a lot with it, sadly it's as precise as throwing a stone with a shovel. Also inconsistent in accuracy. Even shot from a rest it is impossible to hit anything less than the broadside of a barn at over 3 meters. Not the gun to buy if you want to do anything other than throw pellets all over the place (read more)

This is a marvelous gun, whether you are a novice or a more experienced shooter. It is excellent on the range. However i wouldn't recommend it for children, as the box also does not and also it is highly dangerous-in adult supervision, this could be the perfect way into target shooting as a sport. (read more)

Written on: 12/01/2007
straightshooter...........the term 'hop-up' is one applied to softair guns i.e. the ones that fire plastic BBs and yours is designed to fire lead (or its derivatives) pellets.
<br/>
<br/>The P800 is relatively low-powered and ideal for target work. Any attempt to increase that power will inevitably effect accuracy. A very affordable pistol that's close to the 6 foot/pound legal limit is the Crossman 1377, but you have to pump that up. It's a very good gun if you want a built-in Bullworker!

The Gamo P-800 is my second air pistol I have bought. It is good value for money, being an entry level sort of gun. Its a lot higher power than other air pistols that are only a little cheaper in price. It is a break barrel spring powered pistol so there isn't the ongoing cost of buying Co2 cartridges for it. It fires all shapes of pellets and is a single shot per break/cock. From 5 to 10 meters I find that this pistol will break thin walled V bottles, but will not break jars or thicker... (read more)

I had been thinking about getting myself an air pistol for a few months when I got my Gamo P-800. I'm not well off money wise but have always purchased a quality product for any hobby I have tried. I really was not sure if this would be a five minute fad but I had done some reading and decided to purchase the Weihrauch HW 45.

Psy303's Response to psy303's Review
Written on: 10/05/2005
hi hotsky, extra money ??? i want a chrono too !!! now my self made chrono: i do the same thing that a chrono do. i measured the time, that the pellet net for a known distance. i measured at 5 meters. so all my results aren´t the muzzle velocity. my results are the average pellet speed for 5 meters. so the muzzle velocity is a few percent higer. but for me it is accurate enough. to build your self made chrono you need: a pc with sound card, a mike, and a recording program ( i used audacity, because it was the first i found for free. this prog isn´t very good but it works).
<br>1. place mike exacly at the half distace to the target and start the recording.
<br>2. shoot an exactly known distance from the muzzle to the target. ( i shoot at 5 meters )
<br>3. stop recording and do some math.
<br>with the audacity prog ( or any other ) you can see the recording as a wave form as a funktion of time. you can exactly see when you have fired and an when the pellet hit the trap. the difference is the time that the pellet neet for this distance. with this information you can calculate the average pellet speed for this distance. i do this measuring method with 3 different 7.5 joule weihrauch guns, and i measured with the first gun 173m/s, the second 176m/s, the third 179m/s. this shows how accurate this method is. example for my gamo p800: i used RWS hobby pelets with 0.45 gramms at five meters. i can see that i shot 14.12494s after the recording start. the pellet hit the trap after 14.17805s. so the difference is 53.11ms. this is the time that the pellet need for five meters. the SI unit is for speed is [1m/1s]. so i devide the difference by the distance. the result is 53.11ms/5m = 10.622ms/1m. now devide 1meter by the result. 1m/(10.622ms/1m) = 94.144 m/s. {average speed for 5 meters} the pellet energie: e=0.5*mv². 0.5*(92.144m/s)²*0.00045kg = 1.91 Joule
<br>always put the mike exactly between the measuring points or you have to do more math.
<br>an other example, same pellets same distance:
<br>the weihrauch hw50 15 Jears old ( german f type with max 7.5 joule). my results:
<br>16.153030s-16.12422s=28.81ms; 28.81ms/5 =5.762ms; 1/5.762ms = 173.55m/s.{average speed for 5 meters} e = 6.77 joule. hope you understand my proceeding and have fun with your new zero cost chronograph :) psy303

Thanks a lot Psy303 I downloaded the program you mentioned and tried it with my Skif. I works pretty good ; ). One question though what do you put for mic’s input volume? I noticed that when I leave it high at say 0.8+ it’s hard to tell what’s happening on the wave. Also I simplified the formula for calculating the velocity: >m/s = distance (m)/ Time (in sec), In your case 14.17805s minus 14.12494s = 0.05311s, So, 5m / 0.05311s = 94.144m/s. Thanks again

i put 0.8 for input volume and i disabled the +20dB gain from my sound card, but every mike has another sensitivity. try the simple way and wrap your mike with some t-shirts. what happened on the wave EXACTLY, it is really hard to tell. maybe a better recording prog will help. psy303

Here in Germany you can buy the
Gamo P-800 as new for 40Eu. For the price the gun is really ok.
It is well built, I could use it as a hammer :)
One can shoot everything that fits the barrel, put a bit of cooking oil behind the pellet and have dieseling experiments. The accuracy is surprisingly good for this price range but at times the sight needs readjusting. I think is the barrel changing position during reloads; it might be possible to tune it a bit, but I never tried. The power is not...

Surprisingly the Gamo P-800 was nicely finished for a "plastic" pistol. Its got good balance and is a doddle to load and shoot. Its not as powerful as I initially thought but certainly not under-powered. Target accuracy was good, due I think to its combination of light weight and balance.

Bought my Gamo P-800 as a try-out gun to see if I'd enjoy air gunning as much as I did when I was in my teens. It has certainly re-kindled my interest. It's very well built but the barrel seems to be off centre so the rear sight is turned quite far to the right to compensate. Also rear sight not adjustable for elevation, ok at 10 meters but start having to guess a bit for longer ranges. Another problem is the sight moves by it's self due to recoil so after 20 -30 rounds you have to... (read more)

Nice little pistol for the price £40, I find this pistol nice to hold and light,it shoots a fair distance about 3 to 400 yards but it dosen't seem to be very accurate. I find it difficult to use the sights to improve my shooting its like they move, yes it could be me but I also use a crosman 338 and with this I can shoot a baked bean off the top of a pencil at about 15 feet without hitting the pencil.

I quite agree with this review. I have a GAMO p800 and I find it "pellet fussy". Sometimes it hits the target, sometimes I don't know where the pellet travels. The best I can do so far is hitting a coke tin at, let's say, 15-20 yards. (not that bad, after all...). It's possible to set up the rear sight of the gun... but I 've lost the user's manual, where this was explained! Bad luck !

Yes the smk is probably a better pistol but the quality is poorer and I noticed that the smk has a fibre seal at the breach of the barrel which will wear quicker than the rubber one on the gamo, also the stock which is made from a real low grade wood just like the air rifles that come from china that retail for as little as 26 pounds.

I agree with Danco, the S2 has more power but doesn’t look as good. Buy an s3 for a good compromise, great plinker and is good for close range pest control. Plus it has no recoil. All for £30-£50.

yo ray89 I do.
<br>einstein said : E = m*c^2
<br>we change c(lightspeed) into v(speed)
<br>we say : E = m*v^2
<br>m = mass of the pellet, normal at 0.0005kg
<br>v = speed of pellet, my P800 box say 100m/s
<br>=>E = 0.0005 * 100^2 = 5 Joule.
<br>! Action = Reakton !
<br>Half the Energy pushes the pellet forward,
<br>half the energy pushes the gun backwards.
<br>So the energy of the P800 Pellet is : 5 Joule/2
<br>= 2.5 Joule. !!! Always use [SI] units !!!
<br>(if you pellet travels at lightspeed it´s power is 299792458^2 m/s * 0.0005 Kg * 0.5= 22468879468421 Joules)

I've used an s3 now and at 10m I feel it won't have enough power to penetrate, and at low powers its knockdown power isnt up to much either. I modded my 1377 to do 610fps now and its quality for rabbits at 20yards max.

longshot 77...well, you do have a point but punishment that actually FITTED the crime would surely have a greater deterrent effect. To me, the violation of ones home by a burglar or whatever would attract a minimum sentence of 25 years were I in a position to award it. A few sentences of that nature would surely do the trick.

We are two twin brothers that live in a small town near Melbourne we do everithing together, our region is very savage and and we don't have much to do.

In the begining we couldn't hit a can at 12 yards but with many hours of training, our hiting percentage was becoming better, one day my brother kill one small bird at 16 yard with a clean shoot in the head. That day is a mark in our lives we love to hunt and we... (read more)

Twins eh? Yeah, I know who you are now with your obvious love of handguns. You were in one of the Godfather films and you came to a sticky end in some Opera House. How come you ended up in Australia?
<br>Seriously though, I loved reading your review and I can well imagine your "savage" countryside. A little of that here wouldn't go amiss - it would make a nice change for some. I'm quite well off as I have the Welsh Wilderness on my doorstep with plenty of rabbits and woodpigeons. Low calorie meat for the weightwatcher.
<br>Keep shooting, Twins, and maybe one day you may be in an Olympic team - if not, you'll have plenty of fun.

<br>No, I don't own a P-800. I have the S&W 586, the Makarov and a Crosman 338. The ME of these pistols is insufficient to reliably kill anything but a bumble-bee IMO. That's if you can hit it. I can't see the P-800 being any different.
<br>
<br>Treat these CO2 guns as ideal for target shooting and plinking and having FUN. Look through the feedback to various reviews especially for posts by 'Debunker' as he knows his stuff on these things.
<br>Take care mate.

I have bought this Gamo P-800 air pistol for use in my backyard to shoot at cans and empty shotgun shells.
It's a good gun to keep the cats far away from my bird cages, and is very effective on rats, if somebody wants a cheap and good gun the Gamo P-800 is perfect.

No it aint the most in expensive gun - the smk s2 .177 pistol is around £25 and is so much better and more acurate and powerful than this gun. It fires at 400fps and with marksman pointed pellets it archieves 3.2 lbs per foot. Better huntin pistol!! and cheaper!!

Danco where is the pest places to find rats as i would like to kill a few with my new s3 gun. I bought Gamo pro magnum for pest control as they are pointed but these have lees power and penetration than Webley flat head harriers. Jeers for any advice. I might save up for P800 gun set though.
