Pcp or springer?

[Barnsnelbon]

What size tko do you have on your discorvery? I wouldn't mind getting the Maximus but I dont want to wait 2 months to get one haha and last I check discos are pretty close in price if I member correct Amazon has the gun for 212

[MattMac91]

pcp most definately. if you have the money...you wont go back

[K.O.]

The good about the PCP is that the first one is the more expensive one after that the support equipment( for me a pump) is already there...

[Barnsnelbon]

Yeah the initial cost is high but it one you have the stuff it's not bad I'm excited to get into pcps

   Quality spring piston airguns are so great and really help with follow thru and hold for your powder burner shooting. Your shooting will improve with your PB by shooting a springer. I am getting into these spring guns and am having a great time with them. I own 28 pcp air guns and have found myself grabbing a springer for plinking and pesting. Either or get what you really want, make a good investment that will satisfy your needs and wants. I personally feel that your first airgun should be a quality gun to keep you interested in air gunning. With a gun that gives you poor accuracy a person can get discouraged or purchase another lower end gun then another. When he could have just bought a quality gun to start with. Dang wish I would have taken my own advise!!!! lol Speaking from experience get a good gun to start with. There are many on the GTA classifieds, nice tuned springers and great pcp guns. People on this forum really help one another out. Take into consideration that with a pcp you will always have to fill her, with a pump you get good exercise and make your shots count. With a bottle you go thru a lot of ammo. With a spinger you get one gorilla arm. lol

What he said ! Don't go cheap with the first AG.

My first airgun might've cost $10.(decades ago)

My last one cost $50, last year.  The 1377 is a blast. Accurate and powerful for a pistol.
I'm going to splurge on a 2400kt next.

Thinking back when I got into pcp, If I had bought a pcp that got 60+ shots or so on a fill I would have been much happier. That would get me through a afternoon of shooting without pumping in the field. I really disliked having to put the gun on the ground and pump it back up every 16-20 shots. I don't know what's out there at the moment but that was my only dislike to my Discovery. Once I got my shoebox and tank it really didn't matter.

Exactly, for general shooting it is very annoying laying the gun down, hooking up a hose, and pumping it.  For hunting its great, pump and go.  You don't need more than two dozen shots out of your Discovery or Marauder.  I suppose exception for those lucky guys that get to shoot dozens of ground squirrels.  I shoot springers way more often because they are just fun.... and now that i think about it, I shoot my cheap dirty Daisy 880 the most out of all of them for backyard hosps and cans.  They have potential for more than that as this last one stock hit 715 fps with 12 pumps.

You are thinking the right way Alex.  You will appreciate the light weight and pointability of the Disco for hunting as well as the higher FPE.
