Recommendations on Beginners Co2 target air pistol
Hi everyone,
I am looking to get into air pistol shooting and I was wondering what is a good air pistol. I would prefer CO2 because the place I am thinking of joining has a tank setup for the members to use.
I was told to look into a rohm twinmaster in CO2.
my budget is about $500-$700.
I would also be willing to consider a secondhand pistol if I can find one.
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Re: Recommendations on Beginners Co2 target air pistol
what they need is having a pneumatic 3000psi compressor setup. I'd like to get one too, for 1600 bucks it's a good investment. Currently I have a 50 lbs. CO2 setup. A PCP hand pump is not bad too, if you're thinking about the rohm twinmaster since the cylinder is not that big, it won't be much to pump it.Mad Hatter wrote:Hi everyone,

I have never tried the Twinmaster but have been tempted on the CO2 model.
The Baikal IZH-46M is avilable in Canada for around $400.

You seem to know about the high pressure compressors, any idea where I can get prices on models? I am considering picking one up for PCP, and Paintball, but so far have had no luck finding a reliable source.sniper wrote:what they need is having a pneumatic 3000psi compressor setup.

drulov condor
I will soon buy a drulov DU-10 condor pistol, about 500$CAD, 5 shots semiauto, comes with every things you need to bulk fill.
sniper:
the Twinmaster Trainer uses 12gr CO2, 8 shots. but the twinmaster is just a revolver with dual action trigger(unless you cock the gun each shot) unlike the condor which is a real semiauto with a very light single action trigger.

I can unconditionally recommend the tau-7 pistol. I've just recently purchased one made in 1989, and it shoots like a dream. I was apprehensive about both the age of the pistol and the fact it is CO2. But I am SO glad I bought it. I feel like a golden god shooting this pistol.
I just can't say enough good things about it.
