Air Gun Home :: View topic

Were moving into our new digs here soon, even though getting a new home is a major project...its still important that I at least get a lower end rifle for now before I'm completely cut off for a while lol.

I guess for 100bux I couldnt realy go wrong either way, I dont see much difference, if any in these two rifles. Which one would do most here like?

I can get the Quest locally at the sports store, the Storm would have to be ordered, no biggie either way.

Thanks for any help.

They are the same rifle with different stock finishes and scopes. THe innards are all the same. So all you are looking at are different scope combos.

Thanks Todd, I appreciate the info.

Looks like I'm headed to Dicks at lunch.

Before you buy or order, let me suggest you check the specs for the scope on the Quest...Storm has a 3-9 x 32 I had one..I like the scope- so mcuh so that I bought another one like it and it's now on my TalonSS Smile

I second that packrat, The storm comes with a pretty nice centerpoint scope, with a lil trigger work its a pretty nice shooter!

Turns out Dicks didnt have what I wanted in stock. So I stopped by the Sports authority, they had the Quest for 119, it was an open box, according to them they have to do that to put a scanner on the gun itself, there was one scuff mark & some dirt or dust here & there on the gun, looks like it may have been a return, or a display piece. They didnt want to budge on the price either, so I walked. I'm not all that crazy about SA anyway. I'm kinda surprised that I had the gun in hand & the cash & put it down & walked out, even with the condition of the rifle....its just not like me to do that, lol.

Its a sign from the airgun Gods to order the Storm from Pyramid, hang on..........done!

COOL BEANS.....you're hooked now fo'sho'-no turning back, sorry!

Dick's wont take returns and an airgun that has been open may be like the ones at Cabelas display models the ones here have all been cocked and left that way on the display shelf which probably messed up the spring.

Didn't see any mention of it....do you have a Wal-Mart where you live??? Storm XT $109.99...that's where I got mine..one good thing about them...they don't give ya ANY hassle about returning stuff Mr. Green

I've noticed the walmarts around here are not into that type of sports equipment like back in the day. Selling hunting stuff is what them famous around here when they first moved in, now it's milk & bread. I suppose I could have ordered it from them online, maybe even shipped to the store, something to thing about next time.

Thanks guys.
