As always we are Rip Of Britain as they are only £45 in Poland and £66 delivered from there + £25 bank transfer fees

Thoughts please guys

I dont really see the point of this pistol at £159 a 2240 is about £70 add a steel breach and some nice grips and you still come in under £159 quid The 2240 is made in america with loads of bits already available and spares are easy to get hold of too. Why bother?

Why bother....?
Because this pistol is far better quality than than the Crosmans by a country mile, that's why. No plastic, no creaks, no slop. Excellent finish and engineering . You would never guess it is made in China .well worth the asking price imho.

+ 1 for that I have a few crosmans and as much as I like the older vintage models there is no comparison even though the 2200 models can be modified widely .

160 mps equates to 4.8ish ftlbs.

I would suggest that to get anything like 17J out of that length of barrel in .177 with co2 is going to involve changing the laws of physics.

Beware of buying from Eastern Europe a load of guys on the custom crosman site did a group purchase, and that was the last of their money they saw.

That's a cautionary tale for certain, it's always going to be one of those "is it worth a punt" gambles, but with these prices all that is needed is for to people that have risked it to share their individual experience and we could all benefit - after all you would think a shop would love the opportunity of getting a big chunk of business thrown their way.

Look to be fairly accurate too

I'm not saying it's 17j, it's likely the polish site has made a cockup with that figure and was meant to be 7j possibly? Even still, 160m/s is a lot for .22 in a pistol format, hopefully that figure is based on using very light pellets

Edit: apologies, your 160m/s was referring to .177
