andyfr1968 772 Posted May 27, 2009 Report Share Posted May 27, 2009 I've a King Ratty and for what it is, it's a cracking little gun. I use it for short range around barns and buildings. Very quiet (with a mod on), accurate and powerful enough for what I need it for. If you're thinking of one as your main gun, however, I'd look elsewhere. Power drops off when it gets below 5 deg C, you need to keep careful count of your shots as the gas runs out with little warning, the build quality's not too good, if you shoot a lot, the 88g canister's soon ramp up the cost and to cap it all it's bloody American! Maybe have a look for a used Lightning, Webley Xocet, any HW or similar. There's a used section on this site and good deals come up regularly. Good luck and welcome to the site!! Cheers.
