Good Points: The 3 dot aiming sight, Easy to cock and lightweight
Bad Points: Becomes jammed too easy, parts broke too easily
General comments: I bought the shadowmatic 2 years ago and it is still in very good shape, besides the glow in the dark sights breaking and the "magazine" also breaking it is a very good rifle

It is a great gun with high power and max precision (for air-rifles that is). You could kill animals like cats, small dogs but with sharp pellets. The 10 bullet magazine is great also, but you can't put sharp bullets into it: The only way to have a scope on that is to make the scope holder tighter(nearer to each other)

It is a ok rifle as it comes to multi shot but could perform better if did not jam so much. Light weight very accurate the only problem is that i found mine jammed a lot.

Great gun with open sights, although the magazine occasionally gets jammed. I have consistently taken out possums with it at 10m. When I wanted to put a scope on it, I realised that it will become a single shot, so I didn't. Below 20m, it's great for both hunting and targets, but if you want to shoot further you need a scope. And that, will make this gun lose its most outstanding feature and become the same as other break barrel airguns.

I found the Shadowmatic by accident while looking for the Gamo Varmithunter rifle combo on the net. I have never seen the Shadowmatic in a catalog or an ad, and it's not even listed on the Gamo website. It's got to be the best kept secret in adult airguns. If they come out with this gun in .22 I will buy one of those as well.
I bought the Shadowmatic and the Varmithunter scope kit seperately and made up my own combo. Because of the location of the tubular magazine on top of the receiver, ...

I recommend unless you live in a free country or U.S. State that isn't run by Nazi's. Otherwise a .22 cal rifle is cheaper, more powerful, and accurate at longer ranges. Remember your second amendment rights!

I have found the Gamo Shadow matic to be very easy to cock. I removed the fiber optic portion of the front sight since I have a scope. I also removed the rear sight completly. Just dont need them.
I wish I could remove the entire front sight assembly, but the barrell is knurled to acept the sight base.
This is the first high powered air rifle I've owned, and I am very pleased.
I do however have a problem with it jaming on the first round racked, once in a while. I am only shoothing flat no ...

I was at first very pleased by the Gamo Shadow Matic rifle, it was a similar looking rifle to the famous remington 500 series, very nice stock, very big and heavy, but it soon became more of a curse to me rather than a blessing since it was so big and I could hardly reach the the barrel, and cocking it was a bit hard, the first few times I had to wrestle with it to break it open but finally I got to do it more easilly.
But I am very pleased with it, i'm 23 years old and I thought that an adul ...
