Very impressed to say the least!

Groups getting tighter and tighter. Nice balance for freehand shooting.

Took the sliding rail butt stock off as I don't really need it. I purchased this unit as a pistol and am having a blast with it.

How does it balance when used as a pistol? An optics mounted or just using the iron sights? Hand pump, compressor or tank? Please keep us updated on performance and how you like it.

I'm a long armed knuckle dragger :lol: so I knew the sliding rail butt stock would be useless to me.

To be honest, I don't think I will ever put optics on this unit. The iron sites work just fine. One hand shooting is solid with no shaking at all. I stopped at 25M and my groups stayed within 1-1/4". Not bad for only firing 20 rounds. Would optics be of benefit? 100% but I have a scoped JTS Airacuda and a scoped springer for longer kill shots. I purchased this for plinking in the backyard.

I use a JTS compressor with dual voltage so I can use my truck battery to fill. I know a few firefighters and gave them the word I'm looking for a used tank.

As always, great service from Wes! I ordered it on Sunday and it was at my door Thursday.

1 1/4" at 20 or 25 years is QUITE impressive. Easy with a muzzleloading pistol but with an air gun VR good.

It shocked me as well?
I have thousands of round experience with ACP handguns....The cost per thousand rounds (bulk price) is getting outrageous.

For a Chinese built fixed sight gun, I'm blown away with the results. Then again, China is building good stuff now days?

I remember the well known General table saws built in Canada with the Canadian sticker on the cabinet. The cheaper and not quite to exact tolerance were called General International.....LOL, most likely both built at the same factory in China or Taiwan?

Lovely pistol (PP750) and cheap to shoot. :drinkers:

I gotta say, if this unit wasn't de tuned for the Canadian market it would be all the pistol/carbine anyone would need for pest control. This unit hits hard enough to take out pigeons as that is what I started using it for.

I know I said I would never put sights on it but.......... :roll:

I put a non magnifying Browning holographic sight and I'm able to push the distance out to 40 yards with groups within 1.5 to 2 inch . Love this unit as it is so discreet and fits in a small backpack.

I know for a fact the pressure gauge is not reading accurately as I can't reach the max pressure of 2500 PSI. I set my compressor to 2500 and it auto shuts off when reached. Gun shoots on low pressure for an extended time so I know the gauge is garbage.

Anyone know where to purchase a quality gauge from? It is a 24mm and know idea of the thread size.

Thanks! :drinkers:

Good choice, the quality of those chinese PCP is very good for the price. Umarex is now making Notos which is pretty much a PP750 with better stock. Too bad they are not yet available here.

I looked it up, very nice unit for sure.
I think the stigma of Chinese built is waining, so many parts are being fabricated from so called made at home companies all over the globe these days to maximize profits.

Bad news for me folks. "She" that must be obeyed is eyeballing my pistol.

Looks like I could very well have to hand it over to her? :shock:
