Too much has been made of airgun power, especially in the 'more is better' nation of USA. The airgun makers have been getting magnumitis, because power sells. (I was guilty too, bought a RWS 48 Magnum as my first high end air rifle, then eventually detuned it to make it more accurate and pleasant to shoot) Anything that can penetrate a racoon's braincase can take it out with one shot. Forget about chest shots, I don't even try for heart/lungs with a rimfire any more. Generally speaking the Spanish Gamo has been cheaper/cruder than the German Weihrauch and RWS products of comparable performance. The only Gamo I ever owned was a 126 as seen in this auction, a fine tool but not finished to the high standards of Anshutz or Feinwerkbau. http://www.auctionarms.com/search/displayitem.cfm?itemnum=8363612 _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
