    Smallest Co2 pistol

    HI, Does anyone have any knowledge of the smallest multishot pellet firing co2 pistol or revolver? i have someone with small hands and a light touch interested in starting shooting. I haves a Gamo R77 which is far too big and heavy.?

    Maybe investigate the CP99 pellet firer, as iirc mine came with a smaller second grip option in the box (long since sold, however, so my cider soaked brain could be completely wrong)?

    Are those smoothbore?

    What sort of accuracy could you expect at 25 yards if it was in a vice?

    I used to have a CP88 and that was super accurate!

    Cheers

    Have a look here mate, there’s a few details under specifications section. It’s a reasonably weighty air pistol (I believe it’s a few weight replica) but not too chunky.

    That actually looks ok, i was really after something the size of the Makarov, but that is only 3/4" of an inch shorter. and it only does BB.
    cheers mate, i will seriously look at one of these.

    There is quite a difference in the grip of the CP88 and CP99. The CP88 is fairly wide (esp with wood grips as shown), the CP99 is more slender/comfortable for small hands. As mentioned by Gareth, the CP99 comes with an alternative back strap. The hammer on the CP88 can be accessed for SA shoots, the CP99 can be cocked using the rear slide for SA shots. The CP88 tends to be favoured possible because of ease of SA shots and the simple lever method of piercing the CO2 (CP99 uses rotary action to pierce bulb). Also longer barrel and comp sight options for the CP88.

    Agree with all of that.

    The 99 has a very nice short light single action trigger pull, but a long and gritty DA one. It also has rather crude sights.

    That's true, probably one reason I hang onto my 99, and that it has a bit more character with it's rear slide, drop out C02 magazine and de-cock button.

    My vote would go to CP99 compact, light fires bb’s or pellets.
    Just had a thought beretta px4 another good one.
