This version of the Discovery includes the gun and the Benjamin 3-stage hand pump with an attached hose that has a female Foster quick-disconnect fitting on the end. Connect the Foster fitting on the end of the hose to the air reservoir on the rifle. To exhaust air or CO2 from the rifle, you need to purchase the degasser tool.

Get into precharged guns at an unheard-of price and also get the accuracy of an expensive European rifle!

Benjamin has bridged the gap and taken the pain out of PCP guns. Not only is this as low a price as you'll ever find on a PCP/hand pump combo, but it's so easy to pump up that a wispy teenager could do it!

If you prefer to use a scuba tank instead of the hand pump, you'll need a scuba tank adapter with hose and a female quick-disconnect with male threads. The last item already comes with this kit. The adapter fits tanks with a K valve.

The Discovery has raised the bar for PCP guns because it uses only 2000 psi of air. While the European companies race toward higher and higher air pressures, Benjamin is going the opposite direction and making it easier than ever to use a hand pump. If you want to use a scuba tank or carbon fiber tank, you can do that, too, and get the benefit of many more fills than you would from a gun that operates with 3000 psi. The Discovery gives you a choice! The air reservoir is 135cc.

The gun comes with a hardwood stock, Williams fiber optic front and rear sights, and a built-in air pressure gauge. Included in the package is a hand pump that's easy to use and very clear on showing you when you've reached maximum operating pressure.

When you open your box, you'll see easy-to-follow and easy-to-understand instructions that'll lead you step-by-step. If you're an experienced PCP user, you'll soon see that the Discovery is the easiest PCP you've ever used. If you're new to PCPs, you'll become a pro in just a few short steps.

If you want to switch to CO2, that's easy to do. A degasser tool lets you quickly and safely exhaust all the high-pressure air (or you can just shoot the air out). Attach the optional CO2 adapter, connect it to a standard paintball CO2 tank and fill 'er up! Now, commence to shootin'!

With high-pressure air, you'll get about 35 powerful shots before you need to pump up again. On CO2, you'll get a lot more.

The Discovery is made in America.

Things I liked:I like almost everything about this gun. This is my first PCP and coming from a Gamo Big Cat I am amazed with this gun. The accuracy is great, dime sized 7 shot groupings at 50 feet. I bought the gun in .22 caliber and it is more powerful than the Big Cat. The range is great too. Accurate up to about 75 yards with light weight ... Read More

Things I liked: EVERYTHING--This is the most satisfaction I've ever gotten from a rifle in this price range. I've now put over 2,000 shots through it with not a single problem, not even a jam. Accuracy is stunning. The pump is excellent and easy to use (and for me good excersize lol). It's good to see this quality at a price this low.

Also shoots hard. Passing completly through .5 inch plywood at 60 yards. The trigger is a little stiff ... Read More
