i would like to see what was your best and worst air gun you ever had

[Airik]

Guys I don't think it's fair for you all to compare a springer to a cheap multi pump bb gun. MO.

I've already posted, but I agree with Lambchops -- I also should point out that it's really not fair with having guns of poor quality control, as the Crosmans and Benjamins have been (hit and miss).  Many many many hundreds of variables to this "Best of" & "Worst of" thread.  Great thread but I'm not not a lawyer, nor a judge or politician, or an expert of airguns.  I'm sure the Old Timers will have more knowledge than a lot of us

My best is the Diana 34 easily.  Worst was Tech Force 99--the shame of it is, I liked this rifle but could never get it to shoot accurately.  I'm sure if I had the tools, skills and knowlege I could have made a shooter out of it.

Best - Sheridan rocker safety Blue Streak

Worst - Chinese B2 break barrel that thinks it's a shotgun

Y'all are right. Probably not fair comparing a pumper to a springer!   

[Korak-again]

  My best and favorite is an HW30s Deluxe.  While probably not the worst AG, the biggest disappointment was a Turkish built Webley Longbow.

[Wild Onion]

I haven't had many.

Best - RWS 48
Worst -  Titan NP (didn't like the grouping)

[JJ1514]

Best-hatsan mod 125 sniper
Worst-crosman c11

[aack73]

best      fx revolution or  marauder .177
worst    gamo big cat

[EMrider]

Best is my AA pro sport .177
Worst, by far, Gamo whisper .177.  The Gamo, now gone, was loud and inaccurate.  The marketing hype around this gun is very misleading.

Best would be my .22 marauder (after tuning and replacement barrel,.. And replacement trigger,... And replacement muzzle cap) pathetic QC
and worst has to be my old 1980's webley tempest .22 overlever pistol. I cant get this dang thing to shoot at all. Attillery hold or not, it sprays whatever i feed it everywhere. Its fun to kick can, but only at 20 feet. I call it my garage gun, because thats the only range its good for. My marauder on the other hand, i have been able to reliably hit golf balls at 100 yds with a bit of hold over and wind doping. I love my Mrod.

BEST: my Evanix Speed .22, not even counting the full-auto capability.

WORST: Crosman 1077. Despite a mild tune (lightened hammer spring and barrel crown) which helped a little, this gun never gave me the power and accuracy I wanted.

[slothart]

Best MSP: Rocker Safety Sheridan (Reliable, accurate, and good power for my needs)
Worst MSP:  Benjamin 392  (quality doesn't stack up well against the readily available older guns and not as easily modd-able as my 13xxs)

Best Springer: Air Arms TX200HC
Worst: Benjamin Trail NP  (also makes the bottom of my overall list of airguns I have shot)

PCP... only owned one, unless you count CO2 guns, but I've been very happy with the Prod

Right now, my "best" AG is my Wally World Ruger Airhawk with a lube and tune. The thing is just dead accurate and consistent, has plenty of power, cocks smoothly, and the cycle is very fast and solid with no twang or weirdness whatsoever. It's my go to and just shoot gun. This will probably change once I get the spring and seal installed in my Diana 48/52 and a scope installed.

My worst is the B2 I recently frankensteined to death. Although it looked cool and actually had a decent shot cycle, it was a bear trap demon, had a floppy barrel pivot, no accuracy, and finally ended up broken in half and chucked in the trash after it tried to slam shut on the cocking upswing for the third time.

No, it wasn't my trigger, but a worn piston tab for those wondering

[Shoot Straight]

Best, Benjamin Discovery. Worst, Daisy model 25 pump. It broke on me after about a month.

[Bryan Heimann]

Best, probably my tuned X20S, worst probably my .177 b3.  I still love my b3 though, thjs is based on overallquality.  Thd b3 is still a fun, surprizingly accurate shooter, but it has no scope rail and the rear  sight had to be shimmed and hammered on to get a good zero, lol


EDIT- X20 Suppressor was new when I posted this.  Not bad, but not the best either.

[oldpink]

Best: Gamo CFX .177 with GRT-III trigger, especially after the stock spring broke and I replaced both it and the seals with JM replacements without tuning it in the slightest. This one is the bane of any starling unfortunate enough to land within 50 yards of my upstairs window.
Worst: Marksman model 1010 spring piston pistol. I couldn't even hit a pie pan at 15 feet with this hunk of garbage.

[Donny]

Best, MM tuned XS-28 .22, worst bengamin titan .22

[Motorhead]

Best ... My DIANA 75 ten meter match rifle

Worst ... A Chinese .177 side lever piece of junk

[JimL911]

LGV Olympia and a Turkish Daisy Powerline. Can you guess which is best and which is worst?

[Onebaddj]

Good point lamb chops!

Best springer 470
Worst b-3

Pcp my condor! Still pretty much brand new so over all best yet.
Pcp worst. Hmmm only have 2 and love them both.

Best pumper daisy 880
Worst pumper that daisy that flew apart. Was still too.

[Lambchops]

Wow, I see a trend here! Already 5 Crosman and Benjamin Nitro Pistons in the "worst" list!
