The Whisper is a wonderful, lightweight, powerful air rifle. Adding the Crosman Nitro Piston conversion delivers more benefits.
Offering 1200 fps with PBA or 1000 fps with standard lead, you'll be ready to hunt small and medium-sized game and vermin. Plus, the non-removable noise dampener reduces the noise up to 52%, which means you won't spook game while hunting. And, just because the Whisper is modestly priced doesn't mean you give up anything in the accuracy department! You'll be hitting your targets and making one-shot kills time after time. This just might be the ideal hunting gun!
We measured the cocking effort with the metal spring, and it was 35 lbs. (Gamo lists it at 30 lbs.). The Crosman Nitro Piston cocks with 34 lbs. of effort.
Here are the benefits of getting a Whisper with a Crosman Nitro Piston conversion:
Smoother cocking
Smoother shooting
No spring torque
No spring fatigue, even if you leave it cocked for hours
Functions perfectly in cold weather
Lasts longer than a metal spring
Installed by our expert gunsmiths!
NOTE: Installation of the Crosman Nitro Piston will delay shipment by 24 hours (or one business day)
We tested the .22 caliber Whisper with both the metal & gas springs:
Metal spring: 880 fps/PBA pellet; 739 fps/14-grain pellet
Gas spring: 960 fps/PBA pellet; 740 fps/14-grain pellet
Installation of the Crosman Nitro Piston has a 1-year warranty.
The owner's manual states that the scope is mounted and bore-sighted. It is not.

Things I liked:I don't care what anybody says, this is QUIET ! W/Nitro piston , all you get is a gentle "thunk" Accurate too ! Great for suburban hunting.I was gonna sell mine if I found anything better for late night crawls through the backyard. Rws 48,talon ss, not quiet enough. Things I would have changed:I'm only 5'9" , so maybe

Great for suburban hunting.I was gonna sell mine if I found anything better for late night crawls through the backyard. Rws 48,talon ss, not quiet enough. Things I would have changed:I'm only 5'9" , so maybe a little shorter than 48" overall length. What others should know:Very light weight,so the length is not a real problem. You can take a sqirrel at 25 yds without the squirrel next to him realizing what happened until it is too late.highly reccomend.

Things I liked:How it does not whisper. Owner for 14 months. Things I would have changed:Noise level, this gun is loud and and is mis-advertised by name. It may not sound just like other air rifles but it still noisy. Yes the trigger stinks and had to put in a grt. You will need to throw away the scope too and pay more money for better

What others should know:I paid ten bucks for test prior to shipping and NO shot on the printout hit 1000fps. Yes, the expensive gold pba ammo will break the sound barrier. Every 30 yard shot I was making with the 30 dollar walmart gun I can now make with this gun, wow.

Things I liked:Very powerful. Very accurate. Well balanced. Decent scope. Awesome factory mounted fiberoptic open sights. Trigger is ok. Easy to cock with the gas ram system. Things I would have changed:Heavier hardware for the scope mount. My scope slid back from recoil and damaged the scope mount, even with a Gamo scope
... Read MoreThings I liked:Very powerful. Very accurate. Well balanced. Decent scope. Awesome factory mounted fiberoptic open sights. Trigger is ok. Easy to cock with the gas ram system. Things I would have changed:Heavier hardware for the scope mount. My scope slid back from recoil and damaged the scope mount, even with a Gamo scope stop. Heavier hardware would have allowed me to tighten the rings to the base even more preventing the damage. The hardware supplied are very small wimpy Torx screws that strip easily. Everything else is great. What others should know:Great gun for the money.
