That is a good price for that air gun. Not that I would ever do such a thing, but a friend of mine said it was pretty effective at killing pigeons that were damaging his tile roof.

Not as accurate as a competition air rifle, but it sends the pellets out at a pretty high velocity. Some come with a scope and a laser. One might think the laser is a bit silly, but I, er I mean my friend said you could use the displacement of the laser in relation to the crosshairs to judge range.

Anyone wishing to grow fruit, or nut trees in a suburban backyard will find a Gammo air gun with a silencer to be very useful.

They offered that before and I passed. Went to Dick’s Sporting Goods and picked up a Remington .177 (for squirrel eradication in my case) for less than $90 that more than does the job.

I got one of those several years ago. Worked well for a few years, executed many bunnies in my garden. Then, suddenly, it developed barrel sag. Can’t hit anything with it now.

Won’t penetrate a blue helmet; I’ll pass.
