Normally I wouldn't advocate chopping up such a nice (and pricey) piece of hardware, but since you have four of them I'm picturing that puppy with a shrowded barrel, shortened so that it's the same length as the bulk tube (which would be painted black, BTW), with a pistol grip and fold-down tactical stock.

Those look like a remington shotgun.

Hey, don't hate. It releases negative energy, which is bad for everyone.

After done with mods, trigger is much smoother and light like a feather
perhaps it's too light ... I'm still debating on it but it's nice.
The valve is already have light spring installed in it, so a simple spacer
installed at the back of the head of the hammer does alot of improvement
on velocity. The increased was amazing.
The amount of shots drop from 60 to 50 shots but good power.
It's amazing for such a little work ..... I wonder if I should go further
and mod the port too ..... hmmmm.

Port Experiment

#21 Post by sniper »

Gut out the internal parts completely ..... hmmm interesting concept of
porting. It's almost of combination of alot of co2 designs of airguns.
This is just the begining of an experiment, just to see what a little bit
of porting job would do to this Gamo. It's already comes with 18" barrel,
valve already comes with soft spring, big hammer, long hammer spring.
check out the pic. says it all ......

Thank you ......

As I was modding the G1200, I was thinking ETA would do this like a piece
of cake .... perhaps even port it out to the max ...lol.... I haven't got there yet.

HMMMMM spare G1200 .... I've been debating what to do with the other two
new ones in the box still seal, I know I wouldl keep two to play with since it's so much
fun .... pump action and shooting almost as quick as semi-auto ...
I wonder if I should sell the other two brand new ones but how much .....

Actually I just find out this info from manufacturer distributors how
airguns can come into Canada easily but quote on this since I'm not
99.99% sure, when airguns come in through custom they would check
against sample in Ottawa (RCMP) that manufacture at one point of
time sent it to them. If match .... it's in, if no match ... it's OUT ...
but then again it's always depending on the person at custom too ....
I heard sometimes they can be a big A .......

Sorry Papaburger, I never import any airguns into Canada. I can imagine
the hassle. You need a PAL, ofcourse for the PAL guns, otherwise NO.
