Rez 4,961 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 So just nipped to tesco to pick up some bits and bobs and obviously sniffed round the magazine isle. Picked up air gunner. Even though most the air gunning sports magazines are dog, I still find myself picking one up now and then, and just skip by the huge amount of mistakes and shocking aesthetics. Anyway, there's a new springer out, it's a break barrel and a multi shot. Right, I'll have that... the magazine I mean. But it's a f'kin Gamo. Sigh. Tried to find an image on the net. But nothing. Quite under wraps it would seem. A true dogs dinner. But I guess things have to develop this way. Gamo Maxxim Elite. Quote Link to post
tatsblisters 11,040 Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Remember having having an airgun in the 70s with a tube on the top that fed pellets in when you cocked itthink it was an ASI sniper or some thing. Quote Link to post

villaman 9,982 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Can't really see the point , you still have to brake the barrel and cock it 1 Quote Link to post
johonawhitness 110 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 Not good. I love placed the pellet in the break barrel. I don't like to leave them cocked and sat so I do it the hard way(you who use a break barrel or u l will kno what I mean) I cock the rifle when I see the target,placing the pellet in is all part the build up and past time. To think that "squirrel" is going to get THIS pellet when I comes out the other end. Give it s kiss and off it gose into the breech. Quote Link to post

PeskyWabbits 464 Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 The ASI (El Gamo) Sniper and Paratrooper were both available in repeater form. I think most people suffered from jams and ended up removing the mechanism, which was a sprung tube. The pellets had to be just right 2 Quote Link to post
