Today at wally world, i came upon a sealed, but damaged box, Crossman Titan GP .22. its a nitro piston. from what i gather, its quite nearly identicle as the benji trail nitro. I hesitantly bought it... (for a hoooooooge discount) and took her home with two tins of CPHP's. I Immediatly tore down my Gamo BC 1200, and Cannibalized the GRTIII. after about 100 pellets sighting it in and finding i "forgot" to tighten the scope mount screws properly, she's sighted in and hitting a dime at 25 yds. just as i'm putting my scope covers back on, i look past my target, and i see a Nutter stairing at me... I put the crosshairs on his chin, and touched off a shot. i immediatly heard THWOP!!!!!, THE LOUDEST I'VE HEARD FROM AN AG YET!!!. i also watched a giant cloud of red mist come from his backside. i walked over, and the pellet, hit him nearly perfectly in the front teeth, and core out about a quarter sized hole in the back of his fuse box. I did not take pictures because of the large ammount of blood, but it appears that either 750 FPS of 14.3gr CPHP was enough to adequately expand, or .22's are just that impressive. now he is skinned/cleaned/freezerfodder.

454, how much did you get the gun for in a damaged box? I may just have to keep peeking at our local wally worlds to see if any of them have damaged packaging if I know I can get the price down

I paid 85 for it, NIB, the gun was 100% untouched, there is a extremely small blemish in the wood, but it appears natural. the only mark on the gun itself, was caused by myself, installing the scope. I was However, in uniform, when the manager was doing the Rollback on it because of hte damage packaging... you almost couldn't see the rifle through the packaging, due to the skid marks and scuffing on the plastic, they thought the rifle was damaged, but didn't know. he dropped it down for me, and said... "IF IT DON'T SHOOT, BRING IT BACK FOR A BRAND NEW PERFECT BOX ONE"... here in warner robins ga, the people are extremely extremely friendly towards Military. Most places offer 25% discounts and such. the Titan does seem to LOVE CPHP's, and it shoots them quite accurately... stacks them at 25 yds. my Gamo BC just got replaced... and at 6.96 at local wally world for 500 rds of CPHP's, i can't beat it. now to find some preds...... :

You certainly got yourself a deal my friend. *(&^ for that price I would have picked one up without hesitation as well. I just started getting into air guns since my childhood. After my dad just got his titan 2 weeks ago i've been itching to get a .22 cal. I told the wife that I want a Trail NP XL for Christmas, I'll keep my fingers crossed.
