But in all seriousness. Gamo pcp effortcls through the years have consistently yielded less than stellar results.Maybe the idea is to market the Spanish gun as England made as a test to see where their reputation is. Maybe its just rebranded overstock. Who knows.
Congrats on the purchase. I too, was following it on amazon yesterday and today. It got as low as $281, tempting but I resisted on pushing the buy button.. Maybe, because I just picked up a german air pistol and a 22lr just last week.enjoy
Hi,Great rifle and great accuracy. I own the 0.22 model with 30 foot-pound power plant. no regulator is required for it but you have to get accustomed to Gamo's CAT trigger. I have bought GRT-4g trigger but did't have the time to install it on the rifle. here are my shot strings:(pellets: Crosman premiers)
Well rkr I had a Gamo Dynamax, got it about 6 months after they came out. And I like many others found it to be wantibg in more than a few aspects. I had issues with the trigger, just not smooth or as agjustable as I'd like. Then there was the accuracy issue, that gun would shotgun pattern pellet no matter what I tried. And I tried everything, from different weights and shapes and brands of pellets, to muzzle weights to polishing the bore. Nothing worked. I sold it at a steep loss after only 5 weeks. For a gun I would own long term thats nowhere near acceptable to me.Maybe you won the lottery on yours, but I & others I know took a hit with the Dynamax. And that first attempt at a pcp from gamo was enough to teach me to at least wait till they got it right before I got another pcp from them. In my opinion its a fine gun for someone that has the time & desire to dig deep into the guts of a gun from the muzzle backwards to get it to perform. And thats typical of most starter pcp's. Its just that for the amount of time & effort I put into it with no positive results, and that I have heard and seen similar from other Dynamax owners, just lead persons to come to the conclusion that the Dynamax generally wasn't a very good unit to begin with.If you think its a pretty stellar gun for the price thats all well & good. But I personally will not be purchasing another Dynamax within this lifetime.
I bet you have to change striker spring and transfer port to adjust fpe... I wonder if a power adjuster mod is possible... any links to a BSA or Gammo valve..?I wonder just how much fpe the design has in it with a 25.75" .22lr barrel... Could I get a magazine worth of 50-60 fpe with 30 grain boolits?even with +7.25" added barrel length and 3300 psi the tank, might be to small for that..?I have some BSA learning to do... I wonder if the valve is a one off or borrowed from another model... Did John and BSA part ways?off to the search
Watching the exploded view a bit more closely and it looks that there is an air restrictor in the muzzle end of the valve body...as for transfer port well hope they just used what they already hadhere is the Ultra MS .177http://www.airgunspares.com/store/product/4620/BSA-Ultra-MSTransfer-Port-.177-Part-No.-16-6903/and for the .22-.25http://www.airgunspares.com/store/product/11339/Scorpion-SE-Transfer-Port-.22-Part-No.-16-7819/and the .157"/4mm t-port for the R-10looks the same but for the larger I.D.http://www.airgunspares.com/store/product/4547/BSA-Transfer-Port-R-10-Part-No.-16-7445/so It does look like once the warranty is gone It might not be to hard to mod for more fpe...might not be to hard to add a power adjusting rear cap...It would be nice if BSA would sell you a .22 or 25 barrel and sundries to switch between calibers as long as you had bought the .177 or .22 or .25
By real I guess you mean those produced with J.B. assistance ..?
