Pp700 sa

[GRAZY]

I've just had a look at the new PP700 pcp pistol from SMK and it looks like it will make a great target gun. The remodelled barrel shroud looks very LP10 in style and has groves as if for barrel weights. Also the rear sight blade is attached with a dovetail that I hope will soon accommodate a fully adjustable sight. More good news is that the grip isn't a dodgey green colour.

only thing they cost £100 more than the old one.

My experience with SMK PP 700pcp pistol on 20 August 2016.

I had been waiting to purchase one of these pistols for several months as I wanted the open sight model.

My first impressions were favourable and the rather loud green grips of the first model had been replaced by a much darker colour. On the whole I was impressed and it was nicely weighted and fitted my size 10 hands. I did notice that the rear sight only had adjustability for Windage and there was no provision whatsoever for elevation or depression which effectively means you have a fixed range and then you have to estimate by eye.

I took it to the range and filled it to 200 bar, then I placed a paper target out at 10 yards which I was hitting with ease, I then proceeded to the usual silhouettes HFT targets out to 27 yards at that range I was hitting the target surround but not the kill zone, it was quite windy.

I had fired a total of 50 pellets approximately when I loaded a pellet into the breech and closed it, I then tried to cock the hammer! The trigger would not engage I asked my colleagues on the range to see if they could cock the pistol they too had no success.

I returned the pistol to the shop for a refund which I received.


My colleague has the first model (2) without sights and uses a red dot sights of his guns; those guns have been used to train the local Scout group and Army Cadets and have shot many thousands of rounds without any problems, other than requiring lubrication and cleaning.

I am alone in my experience of the new model?

I have the first model of the PP700w PCP Pistol and its an amazing pistol to shoot. I have equipped mine with a black rubber grip sleeve and its also wears an AGS 2x20 Pistol Scope resting on BKL mounts. A lovely piece of kit.

What calibre would you guys recommend for the standard PP 700?

ive owned both, and found the 177.cal to be more accurate, but for pinking tin cans ect 22,was better.

Would love to know if they are going to do some accesories for this pistol. A target sight and palm shelf grip would make it a real contender. The front end is very close to the LP10 style and In my opinion it looks awesome. I would think it should be easy enough to produce an adjustable trigger to retro fit too.

This is an impressive pistol for the money.
I took mine to the range yesterday and didn't miss a thing.
.177
Didn't even have to fiddle with the sights.
Which is good as there is no elevation adjustment!

Plastic grips are a bit hard but it is easy to operate and well balanced.

Suggested fill pressure is 110 bar which is odd but works.
Around 35 shots.
Makes a noise like a running out co2 pistol but the power is there.

A very practical and seemingly robust pistol.

I will try target work another day but I was having to much fun to bother yesterday.

At £250 or less I think it's my Best Buy for a longtime.

I do like the seal set included and they also added a free Best Fittings Coupler.
