I havn'et had a chance to try it out yet because I hurt my back and I can't get downstairs to my basement target range. So, does this gun look better than the all black one? _________________ Airguns: Two starlings talking "Larry, did you hear that? Larry??

It will get heavier. _________________ ¡Listo! ¡Apunte! ¡Fuego!   Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 11:12 am broommaster2000 Moderator Joined: 10 Mar 2007 Posts: 5714 Location: City of Groningen, Groningen, The Netherlands Sounds like Porsche 911 work to me. I've heard they would put lead in the front of the old ones to put more weight on the front wheels. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Tue Mar 03, 2009 11:48 am thepaladin Senior Member Joined: 12 Dec 2007 Posts: 930 Location: TN USA It shoots ok, pretty hard and accurate enough. It's just all the plasti (because it's plastic...go figure) it feels a lot like a toy. But like I said...it shoots ok. _________________ "All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing."
