| If you enjoy shooting competitively, Daisy's single-stroke pneumatic Avanti 747 Triumph Match pistol will get you started in the field of 10-meter shooting, an Olympic sport. With its highly accurate Lothar Walther barrel, this gun is all business. Lothar Walther barrels are regarded as the top in the world, and the one on this gun is no exception. It's made of high-grade steel, it has 12 lands and grooves, it has a righthand twist and its bore is sized for match pellets. Besides a top barrel, the 747 has a fully adjustable rear sight (blade front sight) and an adjustable single-stage trigger. The trigger-pull weight can be reduced to 1.0 lb. or as high as 4.50 lbs. The cocking effort is a low 17 lbs., which makes it ideal for shooters as young as 16 (with adult supervision). Grip panels for lefthanded shooters are also available. Click the AMMO link to stock up on match-quality pellets. Check the ACCESSORIES link for targets, maintenance items and safety gear. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Daisy Avanti 747 Triumph Match by Avantireviews summary
Things I would have changed:The trigger is gritty and inconsistent, maybe it will get better after a few tins of pellets. The rear sight is plastic, which I don't like just on principal. I will wait and see how it holds up in use. What others should know:I am a firearms instructor, mainly dealing with new shooters. In my location the range is a long drive for most students, we have high and gusting winds about half the year, and ammunition (here and everywhere) is expensive. I bought the gun so I could do training indoors (a 10-meter range is available), and so I could better demonstrate the effects of trigger control and follow through without having to be concerned that recoil was covering up the errors as the shot broke. In addition, I was looking for an economical gun I could recommend for my students that they could practice with without having to drive to the range. Got it in one. The 747 is accurate, the grip angle is similar to the sport and defensive pistols the students are buying, and accuracy is excellent for a gun in this price range. It is not an Olympic contender, but it suits my requirements perfectly. Initial response from my students has been very positive, with one new gun ordered and several others pending. I can recommend this pistol to anyone who wants to improve their skill.
Things I would have changed:I am not too impressed with this gun. After 50 shots, the center rivet on the pump lever became dislogdged and loose and started catching on the pump rod housing, marring it and preventing smmooth operation. Every few shots, I have to push the rivet back in place. Then, after less than 500 shots, an internal seal failed. The gun hisses and loses pressure within a few seconds of pumping it. Tonight I am looking for my sales receipt to send it back to Daisey for repair. Very dissapointing. The liberal use of plastic, such as for the bolt and sights, is also disappointing given the cost of this gun. I will probably never buy another Daisey product again and would not recommend this gun to a friend. What others should know:There are no distinguishing features or markings on the Triumph match version to tell it apart from the regular Avanti 747. The box says Triumph Match, but did I really get one? Why doesn't the gun have markings? That is cost cutting that goes too deep. Daisey can't even label the gun properly.
Things I would have changed:That being said. I would pay more for sturdier sights. Preferably blued steel. The 747 is a little heavy. If that means it's better built, I'll take it, if not, it needs to be reduced in size and weight to something more like the 2240. By size, I mean the grips. They're bigger than I like, though that may go along with being a target piece. I prefer the grips of the 2240 and after that the 1322 (the 1322 grips don't shift around like the PC77's). What others should know:If I could only own one airgun this would probably be it. I got it because I remembered many years ago the local LEO range master sat at his desk and shot his pellet pistol at a trap across the room A LOT. This guy was a fantastic shot. I think he'd like the Avanti 747. Comparing the 747 to it's competition Gamo, Baikal, etc. it think for the price point it has no peer.
