Nice collection! I see that you have a Walthar CP 88. What do think of it?

My CP88 is well made and it looks very good .
I get about 80 shots per co2 .
It shoots way below 400 fps with Crosman Wadcutter .
The trigger is nice ones you cock hammer and I find accuracy ok from 33 feet for a repeater .

Here are some of my Chrony results on my pistols .

Go with the Alecto. Got mine last Sat. and everything good said about this pistol is fact and then some. I can`t put it down. Crazy accurate and fits perfect. Do not hesitate, go directly to go and collect tons of shooting fun . Guaranteed winner! [2 pumps plenty for 10M]

I finally made a decision, with great input from my two boys, to get the Berretta XXtreme tactical with the red dot scope. I was leaning towards the Berretta 92 anyways. This gun is just for fun down in the basement and when their eyes lit up when I showed them a picture the decision was made. I see myself getting the 2240 soon, more for myself. I really liked the Alecto, but I not want a multipump. Hopefully it will arrive on Tuesday.

Thanks for all of the advice!

So no more .22?
The PX4 is nice little pistol and you don't need to multi-pump the Alecto, it works fine on one pump, that's how I alaways use mine.

. For sure And it is sure nice to have the option of 2 more pumps if the shooting warrants it. Excellent pistol. 8)
And there is nothing wrong with the 2240. Most AG'ers I know either started out with or has owned the 2240 at one time or another.

Never shot the beretta, but im not into the temperature sensitive problem CO2 has. Im an Alecto nut! Mainly do all my plinking with one pump, but one or two more when needed is an awesome option. Im new to pistol shooting and have put 4000 rounds threw the Alecto since december and i am blown away from its accuracy and consistency. Increased my accuracy and fun once I mounted a red dot, sure bets the focusing difficulties that go along with iron sights. Smallest group so far has been about a quarter inch, shooting 30ft freehand (twohands). absolutely no complaints here!

The Alecto may still be a gun I will consider. For now, my boys and I will have fun with the Beretta.

If you wanted a baretta style i would have personally tracked down a daisy 622, or 617.

they both look like a baretta, and 622 is an 8 shot .22 repeater @425 fps.

Im sure youll be well happy tith what you got, but i personally would have got a 622.
