Things I liked:This is a beautiful little rifle, light powerful ,and rapid fire the koreans got it right ! the euro and American guns are bolt action ..guys you need to step up !!
i am eagerly awaiting paul Capello to review the new gamo pcp thanks paul for all the video great job !! i wouldnt buy any gun with out seeing what you had to say cheers... Things I would have changed:To early to tell.. being a mechanist the first thing i did was pull it apart so far i am impressed how simple and well made it is What others should know:setting up the barrel it screws in deeper than the action will allow so has to be set just right and held down by set screws from the top this alines the accuracy ! mine was lose when i got it .so the gun needs to be set up Things I liked:Tremendous potential, rotary/cylinder feeding system, and size. Things I would have changed:Information regarding the need for scuba tank adapters, what one might expect to pay for an adapter, Country of origin. This is 3000 psi directly in front of your face, unlike Airforce with that hardy, solid tank, this one seems a bit more "fragile". What others should know:Check into the necessities before buying. It is South Korean. The pellets load skirt first (backward) into cylinder, unable to properly seat or align. At $600.00 starting price, there should be no guessing games or hassles, or extra $$$ surprises. My bluing was also blemished. This is one mans experience, so please put into perspective. Comments
Dude, the air tubes on these guns are tested to at least 5000 psi of constant pressure. They are also tested for burst pressure and that is probably between 10000 and 20000 psi. So no worries about the "fragile" tank. It will do quite well if you only fill it to manufacturers specs of 3000 psi and keep petroleum based products away from the inside of the gun. As to the pellet "problem", I have never had one. Some fit looser than others, but never found any would come lose and jam the gun. Of course I take an extra step. I tap the magazine repeatedly on a soft cloth placed on a hard surface with the skirt side down to "seat" the pellets. The bottom part of the magazine is smaller than the top so you must put the pellets in from the top skirt down. Yeah, if you shove em in heads first from the bottom, a LOT of them will come loose and cause the gun to jam. Another more elegant solution is take a brass rod just a few thousandths of an inch smaller than the cylinder hole, put a collar on it with a set screw so you can adjust it for pellet length, the use that adjusted properly to shove the pellets down a bit so they are held firmly. You don't need to shove em in very far. Maybe .005" to get them to hold. Oh, and don't preload cylinders and put em in shirt or pants pocket and expect them to have pellets in them. Most will be in your pocket!!
for a 3000 psi gun you need a 4500 psi scuba tank
find a scuba filling station that can fill close to that will cost about 8 to ten dollars to fill and you will get 50 or so fills ..happy SAFE shooting.. Show Other ReviewsCreate an online review and share your thoughts with other customers

Things I would have changed:A barrel band and a protective valve plug would be welcome.....otherwise an excellent rifle for the money...............
What others should know:Wide skirted pellets will not fit in the magazine- superdomes for example- have got the tightest 3/4 inch groups at 45 yrds with Kodiaks...also shoots crosman ultra mags well...with slightly loose pellets dont tilt the rifle muzzle down while indexing- can cause the pellet to jam...
