I am new to these forums, but have been into shooting pellet guns for about 30 years. I currently am in the market for a new pistol. I am intrested in the Browning 800 Mag and the RWS P5. For pistols, I already own a Crosman American Classic 1377(older), an old Daisy and a Crosman C02. (not sure the model) I am intrested in a break barrel. I do not want to spend much more than $200, but I did look at the Beeman HW70LP at the local shop. I am intrested in all opinions. Please don't suggest a C02 or multi-pump. I will use the gun 90% for target shooting and 10% rodents. Any comments greatly apprecited and thanks.   Posted: Thu Dec 10, 2009 6:58 am broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands RWS is usually better stuff. I don't know much about the 800 Mag... OR DO I? Seems to be a rebatch of the Webley Typhoon. Which is made in turkey. Which isn't necessarily a good thing. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Thu Dec 10, 2009 6:27 pm analoghaze Member Joined: 08 Dec 2009 Posts: 14 Thanks.   Posted: Wed Jan 06, 2010 6:31 pm analoghaze Member Joined: 08 Dec 2009 Posts: 14 I went with the RWS. It is a nice gun. My first RWS. (most likely not the last) It is quite accurate. Out of the box at 30 feet I was placing pellets ontop of the previous hole. I needed to adjust the sights a bit to the right. (2 clicks) Here a some pics of my new pellet pistol. I'm off to target shoot.   Posted: Wed Jan 06, 2010 6:48 pm Lipoly Veteran Member Joined: 06 Dec 2009 Posts: 241 Location: St. Louis, MO, USA Fine looking pistol. I'm chomping at the bit for my RWS to come into stock so I can get my hands on it. _________________ Philip RWS 350 .22 w/Leapers 4-16x50 Crossman 1377   Posted: Wed Jan 06, 2010 9:48 pm analoghaze Member Joined: 08 Dec 2009 Posts: 14 Thanks. It fires nice. I put over 100 pellets through it tonight. Fun to shoot.   Posted: Thu Jan 07, 2010 4:25 am broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands Like it, the beadblasted finish is pretty cool too. They do that a lot on many of their guns these days. _________________ BIG GAP Browning 800 Mag or RWS 5G Magnum P5     Air Gun Home Forum Index » General Air Gun Questions and Topics You cannot post new topics in this forum You cannot reply to topics in this forum You cannot edit your posts in this forum You cannot delete your posts in this forum You cannot vote in polls in this forum All times are GMT - 5 Hours   Page 1 of 1   All Posts1 Day7 Days2 Weeks1 Month3 Months6 Months1 Year Oldest FirstNewest First  Select a forum Main Forums----------------AirGunHome Q&AGeneral Air Gun Questions and TopicsPicture GalleryTarget Shooting: Casual, Fun and CompetitionHunting, Pest Control, Varminting People/Events/Airgun Issue Discussion----------------Introduce YourselfThe BS TopicClubs/Events/Regional/Political Airgun Issues Maintenance, Modification and Reviews----------------RiflesPistolsAntique, Collector and Novelty AirgunsBB GunsPellets/AmmoOpticsAccessoriesAirgun Smithing Buy, Sell or Trade Forums----------------For SaleWant to Buy   Note: If you are seeing "Please enter your username and password to log in."
