.177 caliber Benjamin Dual Fuel PCP & CO2 rifle. Includes easy-to-use hand pump In Stock
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:The Discovery was my first PCP (like many of you) and has been among the most accurate rifles Ive shot. Its relatively small size and light weight makes it easy for smaller hands and children but is not so light that it takes away from its balance or feel. It took about 100 pumps (give or take) for the first fill and I was able
... Read MoreThings I liked:The Discovery was my first PCP (like many of you) and has been among the most accurate rifles Ive shot. Its relatively small size and light weight makes it easy for smaller hands and children but is not so light that it takes away from its balance or feel. It took about 100 pumps (give or take) for the first fill and I was able to get about 30-40 solid shots out of it before I noticed a difference in velocity. While the first discovery I received had an issue with the barrel the replacement came very quickly and I could tell Pyramid Air had inspected the second one for any issues. My discovery has since proved itself to be an extremely accurate and fun rifle. Its not too difficult to fill and yields sub-dime sized groups at 25 yards effortlessly. My Discovery really enjoys the H&N Barracuda (21 gr.), JSB exacts (13.43 gr. and 18 gr.) , Crosman Premiers, and especially the cheap Crosman hunting pellets. They all have given me pinpoint accuracy and chronied from the mid-high 700's to the mid 800's on a full reservoir. Things I would have changed:Not much, a better trigger and maybe a slightly larger or differently shaped stock. Neither of those are what I would consider an "issue". What others should know:You will love this rifle. It is 100% worth the money and the ideal intro into PCP rifles. Buy it now.

Things I liked:Light weight, easy to charge with air or gas, simple bolt mechanism. Mounted optics on this one. It has a grooved "receiver" that readily accepts the proper scope rings. Accurate. Maybe not paper competition accurate though I suppose with more time and pellet types this opinion may change. Certainly hunting and field comp capable

Accurate. Maybe not paper competition accurate though I suppose with more time and pellet types this opinion may change. Certainly hunting and field comp capable. Money for the rifle and pump is a good deal. Things I would have changed:Add a front barrel band? That's really about it. Love this for teaching the children basic marksmanship, but with air it is a bit loud. CO2 is the better option there. What others should know:The muzzle blast is approaching .22lr loud with full air charge. Not quite earplug level but close for the un-initiated. (no bullet crack, of course) Plan on CO2 for the indoor stuff.
Buy the degassing tool. Especially if you decide to dual fuel, which I happen to think is the only way to go.
