Which is the best pistol from the following list with decent power to shoot pellets of .177 cal not BBs.

Walther CP99 / CP88 / Beretta FS92 / Gamo PT80 / Colt 1911 A1

Also I wish to know if any pistol is available with build in CO2 tank so we can fill up using a Fire distinguisher? Or the CO2 capsules are re-fillable ?

AFAIK all, except for the Gamo are made by the same company (Umarex). Power levels are very similar and all can be considered decent & relatively accurate plinkers for hobby shooting cans/ paper/ etc.

Of the above I've only shot the CP88 and Colt 1911, and for some reason the latter tended to be slightly more accurate than the CP88 but my HW40 can easily outshoot any of the above listed pistols.

You may want to read up on some of the threads on airgunbbs.com for a wider perspective from some pretty knowledgeable airgun enthusiasts.

They use disposable CO2 powerlets which cannot be refilled.

In the end, choice is determined by end use. What sort of shooting do you have in mind?

Hello All,
There is an Armory in Bangalore selling a Walther CP99 Co2 Pistol, he is quoting 45k but in the US the gun is priced at 170$-200$.
Please can someone help me in finalizing the best price for this gun.
Regards,
Fire.

Walther CP88 with 6 inch barrel would be little more powerful

Indeed an HW40 or a cheaper variant the Beeman P17 will outshoot these without CO2 powerlets. The P17 costs less than $50 and has an awesome trigger and accuracy.
