So, its not a QB, but at least I don't have to pump, and once I got use to it, it shot well.

And it has the slightly nicer adjustable trigger found on the Benji line...

Congrats, they are good rifles and respond nicely to some elbow grease (moly) and sandpaper.
The trigger can be improved, see recent posts on this topic.
And it looks like you have room for a few more on that rack! :drinkers:

Can't ask for more at 99.99$
When I took it out Xmas morning for its first shot I was excited, didn't realize how greasey the gun felt, I took aim and fired. It dieseled on me, and it was bloody loud. I'm pretty sure the neighbours thought I was firing a rim fire off in my back yard, and it hit the can with a hell of a wallop. I didn't fire it again until me and a friend stripped it down and gave it a cleaning and some less volitile lubricant.
Should soon post some pics of some shots at an actual target.

Its effectively shooting in the 490's pretty steady, well my best guess I got no crony.

Next items, a scope or better sight setup and/or a barrel like whats on the Benji model
Oh... its the .22 cal one

Yeah I discovered that when I was going through my scrap wood to build some sawhorses, it was hangin on the basement wall, but I needed the board for a sawhorse top, I should hang it in the porch

Psssst!
Wanna make that gun shoot really nice. Consider putting in a gas ram (nitro piston) setup into it! I have installed one in my Phantom and it makes this gun really really fun to shoot. Makes it a lot quieter to shoot as well! The only other thing would be to put a GTX GEN 2 trigger on it to smooth things out. Have fun with it. :wink:

I was thinking about the nitro piston setup for mine.. Just seemed like a pain to install from some people.

Probably gonna try an pick up BS NP..

I would like to get my hands on something very tactical looking though..
