About 40 years ago, I bought this from a local gun shop in Durban.
Single pump , PCP plastic rifle .
I was laughed at by a few , its just a toy !!!
But I have had so much fun with this little PCP over the years .
Still going strong, never bothered to chrono it, but always fun , accurate for garden playing against spinners etc .
Its been used to frighten many an Indian Minor bird , away from stealing dog pellets, and from considering nesting in the garage eves .
Now, just use it, shooting through the house into the pellet catcher on the terrace.
Lives on Marksman 177 , so cheap enough . Also back in SA days, used copper coated balls, but its a fiddle to shake a ball down into to breach, so I gave that up years ago.
I have about 6 of these 5 shot magazines, so a 25 shot plink before a reload needed .
This morning, 25 shots at about 18 metres off the couch.
Just because !!!
My Gamo Arrow smacks the catcher so hard, the noise would attract unwanted attention from neighbours, so this Crosman is a great alternative , for a home time plink .
