MY FIRST AIRGUN!!

#1 Post by sametwinnie »

Hi guys,
since Mr. Martin want to ban all pistol and revolver, I'm looking about airgun. What I want is a air pistol that look and feel like the real thing! As I don't know a lot in air pistol (and I'm new to this forum), I'm asking you about the best choice. The pistols I'm looking for are:

Crosman C-40 (my first choice for the weight)
Crosman 1008 (lighter version of C-40??)
Gamo PT-80
Gamo PT-90 (WOW a really nice pistol!)
Walther CP Sport

Also, any suggestion based on your experience will be really appreciated!!
I'm not willing to spend 200$ on my first airgun so what's your opinion since you have more experience than me??

Thanks

I would say go for the Crosman C-40.
It has to be better built then my Crosman 1008 which all plastic.

How about a Crosman 357?

It's got a bigger clip than any of those (10 shots) and shoots harder, too.

(I also have one for sale, brand-new still have the receipts, complete with pistol case, 500 pellets, and 5 powerlets for $60 plus shipping. :D )

i have my own C-40 plus we have A remanufactored one for sale,,any how its a great gun all metal heavey like the real deal puts out about 400 or so more if you use hyper pellets by crosman,, also its very well built as well... we have a special on this month for the gun its on for 115.00 regualr price is 130.00 we sold our cp99 which was the special so this is another one to the list... anyhow

the 357 is also another good choice but the C-40 is ,much better and also the C-40 is very accurate you get about 48 shots per bottle the 357 we have gotten as high as 100 shots per bottle on a really hot hot day the 357 we have in stock are 89.50 each band new

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