I would invite readers to click "buzz" link at top of page. Tom is a PA pro who gave a indepth review of this rifle. It was enough to get me to bite. The Black Ops is an 880 clone with major upgrades: the 11mm picatinny rail is a master stroke! The thin dove tail on my 880 is a worry, and I make sure not to bang the scope. The Ops rail is thick. The easy to grasp cocking handle feels great and locks down well. The hard sights are much improved from the 880. The front sight also acts as a muzzle guard - sorely lacking on the 880.
Things I would have changed:Change pump hook up! Ok, I have an 880, 77xs, M-4, and now the Black Ops. These are all inexpensive to collect and are serviceable hunting guns. I took the Ops head to head with the 880, and it was a dead heat on power and accuracy. Where old reliable (in production since 1972) still out shines the Ops, is trigger pull and pump behavior. The 880 has a short and crisp release by comparison. The Ops takes a harder pull. The Ops pump makes a loud "snap" because of a button that engages and disengages during pumping. So if you plan on hunting in the open field, anything will fly or run away within 30 yards of that racket. The 880 is silent. Now if you do it like me and prep inside a house, then sneak out to deal with pest animals, that will work. Still, that Ops pump needs to be re-designed for quiet action.
What others should know:Black Ops has a double meaning. It is a cool name, but also I believe it is Gamo covert operations. Check out the Bone Collector Cadet to see the similarities. Gamo, a big company, would not let an upstart firm rip off one of their designs like that. Or maybe that is what happened and Gamo doesn't know. Either way this is a great deal for collectors or a newbie. The little scope never got put on mine because I had a variable power one sitting in a drawer. Unlike $100 magnum springers that cause many buyers heartache, like gross inaccuracy and shattered scopes, for $50 a shooter gets a recoiless gun that is easy to sight in and scope with a basic 40-50 dollar Tasco or Simmons. A Bug Buster right here at PA would look great on this Ops. Either way the gun is a good value and worthy of a scope upgrade. Penny size groups at 15 yds for this shooter. Hammer pellets.

This gun is the perfect weight and power for hunting in the woods for squirrels and rabbits. Best bang for your buck.

Bought this for targets on my basement range so the distance is limited. I upgraded the scope to a bottom line Baraka, dialed everything in and it hits dimes at 50-75 feet. Have nailed things at 25 yards outside and didn't max pump it. Super fun. Accurate and surprisingly consistent.

I had a daisy pellet gun previously and wanted something just a little nicer, and I am very happy with this gun so far. It is very accurate once you get it sighted in, would recommend getting a better scope, as the one that comes with it is only so so. The gun is light and easy to use, definitely better than my previous air gun.

After some research, I recently purchased this rifle to replace my old one. I have no regrets. This rifle is exactly as it is described; and works as it should. I'm looking forward to many years of enjoyment.

I have had the gun about a month and fired hundreds of pellets through it. I changed the scope to a 2-7x30. I shoot Crossman piranhas and wad cutters. I set up a short-range in my house of about 8 yds. You can see by the pictures that I am very successful at shooting those pellets. It's like shooting the star out at a county fair. Pumping is great from 4 to 10. Loading the pellets take some getting used to. I have 2 other Barra guns they are both wonderful as well. I will be buying a second one for my grandson, Once my daughter-in-law approves!

I purchased this 3 days ago and had a lot of problems with sighting in the sites. The screw on the iron sight / plastic the set screw does not lock down so remains loose in windage easy to knock out a place. The scope mount does not lock in place it's easy to knock out about a half of an inch from side to side. The elevation you could not adjust down within 3 in of elevation when sighting it in. Other than that it looks good has plenty of power but you got to have your sights working otherwise you can't hit nothing. If you're buying it for a Target it may be okay but if you're buying it for varmints you'll have a difficult time hitting anything I return mine back to the store on the third day. If they rework the amount for the rail on the scope it would make it a lot better weapon plus putting a little bit better scope on it would help too, something with more adjustment. The hole for the rear fix site needs to be deeper so the screw does not lock down before the site is locked down.

Bought this yesterday. Shot it with out scope bbs so so accuracy put scope on really hard to use went back to open sights. Again bbs ok. But switched to pellets much better accuracy. Wanted to be a squirrel scare gun worked with bbs. Pellets will pump less didn’t want to kill them but they are doing a bunch of damage. Good gun for the money. Scope not worthwhile. Happy with it overall.

Bought this gun for my daughter as a gift. Great starter gun for her age. The only thing I didn't like was the design on how to mount the scope to the rifle. Horrible design, and the scope isn't really good either. Other than that, shoots well, easy to use. Fun for younger teens.

Was looking for a cheap pumpable gun with fast speeds. This is my first air gun but feels well made. Scope seems cheap so I will be upgrading it but still a good gun.
