I could be mistaken, but I think Crossman makes this gun and Remington puts their name on it. Makes me want one!
I have a sort of "shot gun" upstairs with the way the doors all line up. I got bored one night and set up an all weather/day or night mini-range for my old pellet gun.
Fwiw, 1" Southern pine makes a decent backstop for pellets. Soft enough to catch them or at least stop them.
By the way.........now that I’ve opened the puppy up, read the manual, etc.....you’re absolutely correct; made by Crosman, Remington “label”. Also, you were correct on the max # of pumps (10).
Anyhoo.....I’ll let ya know the results. :)
