Hello, advice on buying my first air pistol, please.

[Biker_Bob]

The Brocock Grand Prix is a fine pistol - the trigger is worst bit but it's tweakable.
I've had a lot of success with the Crosman 1377 but I admit that they're not for everyone and they need quite a bit of work to bring them up to scratch.
For the money a Crosman 2240 is hard to beat - plenty of power and very accurate.
The HW75 is a superb pistol but very very low on power, forget humane dispatch or even pistol HFT - 20 yds is about the limit for one of these.
How about a Zoraki / Alecto? Full power and only three pumps.

Sent the Artemis back for a full refund as the air cylinder leaked.

Bought a Weihrauch HW75 - first impressions are very favourable, will post a review in due course.

Thinking of buying a Sig Sauer P226 FDE CO2 - .177.

Grateful for any comments or info on this pistol - btw well aware of CO2 problems in the cold.

Many thanks,

Michael
