Information Gamo Shadow Fox Combo | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Shadow Fox will go the distance for thousands of rounds! It comes with a powerplant that yields a sizzling 1200 fps with PBA ammo. The unusual all-weather synthetic thumbhole stock has twin cheekpieces for truly ambidextrous shooting. On the other end, it has a polymer fluted bull barrel and a surprisingly easy 30 lbs. of cocking effort. The 2-stage adjustable trigger is easy to customize for your personal needs. It comes with a 3-9x40 airgun scope and a 1-pc mount (scope is unmounted!). You'll get about 1200 fps with PBA ammo and approx. 1000 fps with lead pellets. Don't forget to click on the AMMO link to stock up on pellets. The ACCESSORIES link has a list of fun targets, safety gear and much more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Reviews summary Gamo Shadow Fox Combo
Things I liked:As an owner of over 25 different makes and models of pellet rifles I have come to know what makes a particular rifle most inviting to use and unfortunately this is not one of those. It's a good rifle for a novice or plinker but not for a serious minded shooter such as a match shootist or small game hunter. Things I would have changed:I would change the locations of the stock openings to a place further down the stock and away from the butt of the scope more,or make them into just one opening slightly elongated. Mostly though, as with virtually every break barrel rifle I've ever purchased there's barrel droop. Some worse than others but all seem to have it to a degree. This makes mounting and sighting in a scope quite difficult in many cases as the scope doesn't actually follow the real line of the barrel. Open sights that come on most of these rifles are easy to sight in as they are on the barrel of the rifle and so do follow it's trajectory. There are break barrels that don't come with open sights or even a place pre-set to mount them so a scope is the only way to go. I've had to actually shim the front or rear of some scopes by as much as one eighth of an inch or more to finally get the rifle to hit within the target area close enough to fine tune it. What others should know:Once sighted in this is a fairly reliable gun with good hitting power and I've taken several rabbits down with a single head shot at 50 yrds. or more with the propper ammo. It pumps fairly easily and doesn't make too much noise. You should continue to go over and tighten mounts and other screws periodicly though as they tend to loosen a bit with use. Things I liked:Light, easy to cock. Brought it to a friends house this past weekend and baited rats all night. Took one through the head at about 20 yards. Really nice gun!! Things I would have changed:Better scope. I bought the Leapers Master Sniper Scope and it works great with this gun. What others should know:The trigger pull was really stiff out of the box but after you shoot it a lot it starts to loosen up for you.

Things I would have changed:The one thing I would change about this rifle is that I wish it had iron sights, Although it is a breakbarrel design.
What others should know:An accurate rifle with the power to obliterate small animals, with the right ammunition of course.
