| I don't have a basement and am considering doing some shooting in my home. So I am trying to research low powered pistols for a little less than 5 meters. I want something that will punch paper but not have much power so if the target is missed then there will be little or no damage. I have been experimenting with soft air guns but don't care for the plastic BB's I would prefer pellets. any ideas? |

I use a custom 2240 rebuilt with a .177 barrel (so I can use the cheap .177 pellets) and a cut down hammer spring and RVA (to give me 100+ shots per CO2 cartridge). Very accurate, lotta fun and cheap cheap to use Adjust the RVA for 10 meter, or crank it up for small pests.
cheers

A 1377 sounds like it might work. It is a pumper so you can go from 2-10 pumps to adjust power, and its pretty accurate.
ellodrith...nice set of games (NOT talking about the Wii games ) |

I have an HW 40 (Weihrauch - expensive version of P17) and love it for indoor shooting. Very accurate and quiet enough. Beeman's P3 is suppose to be the same pistol as the HW 40. |
