| Airguns are a real can of worms, and a bit of a catch 22. They aren't powerful enough to hunt large game with for the most part, but small game requires high accuracy. I have a spanish gamo that I'v ... |

Eric,
CdT told me that he could install a heavier lockup spring if he thought it was too weak. When he checked mine, he thought it was OK though and just left it alone.
The scope that cam ... |

| I have the wood version. The scope is the same but mine came with a much heavier mount. One reason I liked the Gamo was because it didn't weigh a ton. It's hard for me to justify carrying around a ... |

| Well, I spent a good long time shooting today, both at targets and game. I found that the crow magnums that shot best from the gun before the tune, aren't so good now. The best pellet I tried today ... |

Well,
I decided to try a red dot sight so I bought a Tasco for $38. It doesn't give the precise sight picture that the scope does, but actually, my groups are about the same. I like the dot for ... |

Westonhill,
Is it worth it? For me it was because otherwise I probably would lose interest in the gun altogether. I agree that a new Gamo shouldn't require as much work as the gun costs new to ... |

Guys,
I keep hearing about how springers kill scopes, but when I look at what people are uising they seem pretty ordinary, if not down right cheap. What's the real deal? Can I use a regular B ... |

Guys,
Here's a follow-up to my thread about spring gun accuracy problems. Thanks to a member here, I sent my Gamo to Charlie the Tuna for his turbo tune and trigger job.

| Yea, I should have said it's rated that way. I haven't chrono'd it so I don't know. It's rated at 1000 with lead and 1200 with Pba. Judging from the pellet penetration, I'm pretty sure it is less t ... |

Broommaster,
Guilty as charged, your point is well taken. I should have researched it better. My time is pretty limited so I didn't. I could guess that I wasn't making an optimum choice but I wo ... |

Thanks Eric,
My gun was made in Spain. The workmanship seems fine really. If I slap the forend of the rifle lightly on the bottom, I can feel the barrel bounce. It's not much, but it only tak ... |
