An Air Shotgun!

Post by SMJ » Sat Jul 25, 2015 2:36 pm

Hi

I came across something very interesting! First for me, not sure if others are aware

Kindly see the link http://www.pyramydair.com/s/m/Gamo_Vipe ... Rifle/1020

"A unique gun offered by Gamo is the Express Shotgun; a spring piston airgun that shoots a small purpose designed shell loaded with 17 grain of #9 shot (approximately 25 pellets). The Express shoots about a six inch pattern at ten yards, and while it is too light for small game hunting, is the perfect medicine for moving rats and starlings darting around the shed or barn."

The above qoute is from this article http://www.airgunarena.com/index.php/Pe ... ed_Airguns

Very interesting gun. Thanks for sharing.


The best part is that ammo is also available for this gun.

I didn't know anything like this existed. Thank you for sharing this!

I was really disappointed to read it was .22 caliber and fired 9 shot. But it sounds like it does have some close range performance that would be fun for kids or maybe taking out a pest when even a BB or pellet would not be completely safe. If I was buying 10 guns a year I would pick one up but I just don't have that sort of gun budget so it is way down on the list.
