Page 3 of 5 - Gamo PT-80 CO2 Pellet Pistol Reviews

Nice co2 gun. It´s looks like the Cougar 8000 handgun. The trigger is smooth and the single action gives a great accuracy.

Add more weight to the gun. Actually the weight is low.

I really liked the style of this pistol. It sits comfortably in my hand with the controls in an easy to reach location. Not a bad look-alike.

A smoother trigger.

Overall a good solid airgun. Maybe it"s time you purchased one.

No jams, top slide is slender and sights are easy to pick up, light, velocity is pretty good.

Definitely change the trigger, its pretty horrible. The method for piercing the CO2 is really ineffecient.

It is reasonably accurate. Does not jam.

The rear sight gets loose very frequently. Piercing of the CO2 cartrige should be much better, since you loose some gas in the process. The magazines, made of plastic, deteriorate too soon, I believe they should be made of metal, even if that bring the price of the gun a little higher.

Don't expect big performarnce and quality on low cost products...I am starting to learn that with air guns, regardless of the brand. For example, there is such a big difference between this gun performance and my Walther CP88. My advice, save a little more dollars and buy a good quality product, at the end, it is going to be less costly, less frustrations, and you will be happier.

Very good Pistol for the money. I have had no problems at all and it seems to work flawlessly. I like the look and feel of the gun. I get between 50 and 60 shots per air cylinder before noticeable loss of power. I like the way that you change the clips, very easy. It comes with three clips but I am going to order an additional three.

It would be nice it the hammer was also blued to match the gun but it is really not that big of a deal.

Again I would definately recommend this gun to a friend. Alot of fun for plinking and shooting cans in the back yard. I am very impressed with the gun.

Everything! this gun is amazing!!!

Sight dots could be a bit brighter

Great gun to plink or have fun with

Accurate pistol.

Lighten the safety lever spring.

The Gamo PT-80 is a good copy of the Beretta/Stoeger Cougar. The 3-dot sights work well, but could be brighter. The double action trigger is about like a real firearm. However, in single action use it is no lighter than its double action, just with less trigger travel.

Just be sure to lube all the mechanical points in this gun since it is a revolver and you don't want all those little pieces breaking too soon. My breach seal blew a gap in it after about 500+ shots. The C02 cartridge seal is still fine. Even with the breach seal virtually useless, this gun still shoots great. I get 12 magazines worth of shooting out of each C02 cartridge. I think the breach seal is overkill and not really needed if my experience tells me anything.

The Gamo PT-80 makes a fine practice pistol for the garage or backyard.

overall good balance. quality is better than previous generations. pretty good bang for the buck.

sights are primitive. single stage trigger pull is unusually heavy. doublestage trigger is very long and creepy.

I bought this gun for shooting aerial target shooting and I'm very pleased with it. Very fast handling and reliable with good pellets. Double hits on a flying soda can are easy. The trigger is really excellent in both D/A and S/A,,good power, and about 56 shots per CO2 cartridge. (7 full pellet cylinders per CO2 cartridge.)

The PT-80's a little muzzle heavy and handling would really benefit from a little extra weight in the backstrap, There's a lot of gas bleed at the breech. Tightening the lockup would boost FPS significantly.

EVERYTHING! This is a great gun plain & simple! Good power, good accuracy, no jams, & is a great deal for the money!

Nothing!

I'd take this over the Walther CP99 which is over twice the price!
