Marksman 1010 Classic Reviews

Absolutely nothing. Zero.

1. Accuracy. 2. Noise level (too loud for small and under-powered gun like this).

This pistol is so inaccurate (at ANY distance) it's unusable. Yes, I KNEW it wasn't going to be very accurate, but I didn't expect it to be horrible -- pretty much ZERO accuracy! So I put it back in its original package and when I find someone interested, will give it away. I'll take the $$ loss and chalk it up to experience.

Fast delivery, product works well, but...

Here is the...but,.....low power!

Of all the spring loaded bb pistols, this one is a keeper. No problems loading and shooting. Extremely accurate for a low powered gun. don't expect the power of CO2. Just for plinking, your hand and arm get a good workout. You have to cock it for every round.

Nothing

Push down the release button, and pull the slide all the way back till it clicks and locks, then push the slide all the way forward then it will be ready to fire. Its a chore but like all spring loaded pistol its required.

Seems to have a little bit more punch, then the one I got 30 plus years ago. I still got that one. I got this one for my Grandson who is 5, to teach gun safety. You can never start them to early for safety. He can shoot this one better then his BB rifle. He has even killed grasshoppers with it. I have to cock it for him, so that is good.

Better trigger pull, but for the price, it is what it is.

Nice short range BB pistol

Good entry level practice pistol . Good for basement or garage range. It is what it is period . A friend of mine had one of these back in the early 70's , dam i think he( slept ) it with it I'm not sure. It seems like he had more than 3000 rounds through it or more . He always had it with him. One time we walking to our favorite shooting / hunting area about a mile or less away and someone called the cops on us , when they showed up they thought it was a real 45 ACP. The cop told us to be careful and safe and drove off laughing .Today they would arrest you no questions asked. I would always take my Sears Eldorado Multi-pump with me - STILL HAVE IT - ( a dead ringer for a Daisy 880 made for Sears ) I think back then these pistols were about 14.95 .

For 20.00 not to much but it is a fun pistol to plink with , past 15 feet probably not.

All you hear is the spring noise when it shoots. It does shoot high most of the time.Never tried darts but i hear they don't do to good. I acquired one of these pistols about 12 years ago and still brings back memories every time i shoot it.

Size & looks like a classic 45.

It's hard to cock. Does not shoot pellets (as advertised).

Does not shoot pellets (as advertised) Shoots BBs fine.

Shooting in the basement,like when I was a kid & teaching my daughter how to shoot

Make in 22 cal. For my big fingers

Just for fun

Trigger not bad for less then $20 gun.

Shoots way high.

Like I said Shots WAY high. Had a all steel one when I was a kid and loved shooting darts with it. I can hit a 6" target at 35 yards!! (It takes about 20 shots with a lot of hold over to the left!) Fun for what it is a less then $20 air gun.

I didn't get this for accuracy which it lacks, or power which is pretty much bottom of the barrel, or the trigger which is fairly heavy. I got it for the nostalgia. I had one of these growing up. It was inexpensive and got me behind the trigger. So since I had one long ago I thought it would be fun to add one to my collection.

Give it power, accuracy, pretty much rebuild it from the ground up. But for the price you can't expect that much.

Nostalgia piece only. Don't expect too much out of a $20 airgun.

indoor(no lead)<15foot,real cost effective plinking

a way to verify bb got loaded

point gun down if going to open barrel,you will dump the loaded bb's,leave your mama's wind chimes alone,hehe,"know your target" bb's over lead pellets will ricochet

This pistol does not require CO2, and has a bb reservoir. It is not expensive, and is fairly reliable. It is very weak, and not accurate - but tin cans at less than 5 yards is doable. Can shoot darts, which is pretty cool. Very cheap.

Its just not that great, there are much better pistols for a few additional dollars. The things that might be changed would increase the price.

A good entry level plinker for kids, especially to teach gun safety and proper handling techniques.

The price, the style, the mechanics.

For this gun, at this price, nothing.

Folks, this is a low priced, entry-level fun gun. That is all that it's meant to be. If you want more metal, more power and better accuracy, then it's going to cost more. I have several pistols in the $100 - $200 price range but I have five of these. When my buddies come over we always shoot the Marksman because it's fun. Each guy gets a one-foot square target to shoot at. We start at five feet away then take one big step back after each shot. We do this quickly and stay next to each other. After nine shots we are around twenty feet away. We switch guns then walk it back in for the next nine shots. Whoever hits the target the most times wins bragging rights for the day. No one has ever recorded eighteen hits. Fun.

The grip and not much else. Dealing with Pyramid Air you make it so easy to buy air guns and associated equipment here in New Zealand I would not have the collection I have without you, so thank you all.

Put the price up and make it easier to load darts and more accurate.

I never had high expectations because it is only twenty dollars after all. I bought this to shoot darts at a dart board, and it does not do that very well, not to mention actually getting the darts loaded then there is the accuracy forget it!!

the grip feels good it forces the user to slow down and focus on the operation before shooting. this gun challenges you and that's fun.

an all metal body like the early models. the noise level is a bit loud, probably due to the plastic body. A metal body could reduce the noise level when used indoors.

This is not a 30 foot gun. It is not a 15 foot gun. It is somewhat accurate at 2.5 meters or 8 feet 2 inches. It can be a practice target gun if you find its effective range. I use Daisy premium bbs (zinc). I'm at about 180-185 fps chrony. Use a 5 meter target reduced 50% on a copier. Plenty of challenge there.

Looks ok for a cheap spring gun.

Nothing

This is the bottom of the barrel as far as bb or pelet guns go, great for that first timer. The cocking mechanism is hard, so if you plan to get this for a young one, be ready to load it every time. This will shoot darts, but not very well.

The price and the shape, weight and size.

It's all plastic but for the cocking lever.

Good for training about gun use and responsibility, aiming and the basics!!

That it is spring powered and has a little kick.

I would make it much stronger.

This is an accurate gun at 15 feet max. It can kill birds and rats I don't recommend going after anything bigger then that.

Large clip, good acuracy, & little recoil.

Trigger gaurd, look, & color.

It is inexpensive. The slide is metal. Trigger is heavy but okay.

Everything.

Not a bargain at any price. Bought several for a family get together. Thought we could do some target practice. No one could hit anything with these. I thought these were the gun I'd bought at Wal-Mart. That was a Daisy that looks almost the same. It had a rougher trigger pull, but you could group your shots, plink cans.

I love the realism of the pistol

I would include a silencer if possiable

I mainly bought this for my video props
