Description
The well-balanced hardwood Monte Carlo stock has a raised cheekpiece on both sides, making this rifle truly ambidextrous. A ventilated rubber buttpad helps keep the rifle snugly in your shoulder while softening the recoil. The cocking effort is relatively light and may be suitable for some younger shooters (with adult supervision). You can customize the trigger let-off to your personal tastes, because the two-stage trigger is adjustable. When you cock the rifle, an anti-beartrap mechanism automatically engages to protect your fingers.
If you use Gamo Raptor pellets, you will get maximum velocity from your rifle. If you use lead pellets, your velocity will be up to 1,000 fps.

10 of 19 Gamo Hunter Sport Reviews
Have had this gun for two years and it shoots good as new. Also, I love the wood stock along with the adjustable trigger.
Things I Would Have ChangedI might just make the barrel shroud an all metal barrel.
What Others Should KnowGreat airgun for plinking, target competion, or hunting, very nice well rounded air rifle.
I love the wood stock. Very nice. Gamo comes through on the stock. The plastic barrel shroud is great in my opinion. It is one less spot on the gun to worry about rust or corrosion from handling.
Things I Would Have ChangedI think Gamo should leave out the scope and lower the price a little. Plastic trigger and plastic safety have replaced the metal trigger and safety lever on previous models. I am very unhappy about this. Upgrading the trigger is no longer an option.
What Others Should KnowYou can throw the included scope in the trash! It is garbage.
Do your self a favor and always use high performing lead pellets. Forget about the 1000 fps PBA.
The stock is very well made. The wood is smooth and flawless. Gamo did a nice job with the wood stock overall. I am a little dissapointed with the new plastic trigger and plastic safety. Gamo decided to rework the action and trigger block. Any trigger upgrades or aftermarket tuning will no longer work for this rifle. I'm not an expert and can't say whether this is a good thing or better than it was, but Gamo has always provided a quality line of airguns. With very little upgrades, they basically deliver alot of gun for the money. Anyways, it is still a great shooter and most will not even notice the plastic trigger. I do like the plastic covered barrel however. I don't have to stress out about touching the barrel and leaving corrosive oils on it. The barrel will never rust. You can throw the scope in the garbage, its junk! Buy a decent scope that you like. But don't try to fit a 12" scope with a 3" sunshade on it, this won't work. Also the rings must be 11mm dovetail type. I am using RWS Meisterkugeln Standard .177 Cal 8.2 Grains Wadcutter and Avanti Diablo Match .177 Cal 8.4 Grains Wadcutter. Oh let me tell you, I love these pellets. I typically like a heavier pellet. I don't neccessarily care about FPS. Stability and accuracy down range is my objective. So these seem to work great, but I haven't got this rifle broken in yet. 4 stars for the plastic trigger. 5 stars for accuracy and power.
Things I Would Have ChangedPlease tell Gamo to go back to the metal trigger. Don't include a worthless scope and lower the overall price instead. I'm not crazy about the free included sling.
What Others Should KnowI recommend RWS oil. And use it according to the instructions. Wash your pellets. Wash your hands. Only use high quality ammo. Order your guns from Pyramid Air for professional results. Don't shoot animals for no reason. teach youngsters positive values, responsible gun handling, shooting skills, and gun etiquet.
Very Good Air Rifle for the money. It is very light and balanced. Getting 1 to 1 1/2 inch groups from 30 yards. Still practicing my artillerty hold and expect the groups to get tighter with more practice. Super light cocking effort. The scope that comes with it is great. I put some loc-tite on the screws to eliminate scope shift and so far so good after 1000 shots. My girlfriend and I were knocking down cans and plastic bottles at 40-50 yards every shot...This rifle is a lot of fun to shoot.
Things I Would Have ChangedNothing for a gun in this price range.
What Others Should KnowMine likes the H&N Crow Magnums and the JSB Diablo extra heavy domed.
Great gun...get it and happy shootin.
I am a total 'Newbie." Received my Hunter Sport .177 and found it to be well made, attractive, totally happy. The sight is not a mounted BSA, instead it is an unmounted Gamo. Gamo owns BSA! Nice scope except the lateral adjusting mechanism was installed backwards. I have to turn the knob opposite to the printed directions! Works! Able to zero it in NOW, with little difficulty. I have no doubt that if I ever hit a pigeon it WILL do the job. Attempting to keep the scope from sliding is a challenge. I have yet to find the balance between tight and too tight.
I really am impressed with this rifle. It is my second gamo and I have had 2 Sheridans. Trigger pull is good and power is adequat. I really like that there are no sights to show up in the bottom of the scope when mounted (had this problem with other Gamo and both Sheridans.
Things I Would Have ChangedNot a thing.
trigger pull is light compared to my beeman VERY accurate and consistant cocking effort is very light lots of power
Things I Would Have Changedwhen is gamo going to start putting iron sights on their rifles
What Others Should KnowGAMO Red Fire Pellets work well with this gun good accuracy
Anyone who says it's not accurate doesn't know what they're doing. Mounted the scope properly( with locktite) shot it maybe fifteen times to sight in..note...when you're sighting it in at 20yards, it's a 100 yd scope..it takes 5 times the clicks to adjust it. The first shot at a squirrel...dead..I swear. Killed in 7 in 3 days. This thing is amazing with exact diablo heavy
Things I Would Have ChangedNOTHING
What Others Should KnowI can't imagine a more accurate pellet rifle
Accurate and easy to use air rifle.
Things I Would Have ChangedScope rails work. Not exactly the best engineering but it works.
What Others Should KnowPyramyd completed the sale promptly. I received the gun in 3 days. Well done Pyramyd.

I love thw wood stock and plastic barrel shrouds, you dont have to worry about corrosion and it makes this gun very light. i have killed many squirrels and birds with this air rifle.
Things I Would Have ChangedAfter i few months with this gun the scope just all of the sudden quit working i would HIGHLY suggest buying a new scope emidiately. another thing ive been having trouble with is the plastic piece just above the grip behind the action it keeps sliding back so i had to glue it into place.
What Others Should Knowthis gun is a great buy for the money but i wouldnt suggest it for a serious, hardcore airgunner.
