    HAHAHA lol good one...

    Don't know about the 54's "problems" whatever the issues could be would be very easily fixable. Saying so, not "defending" my gun - it really is not one of my favourites and I did a lot of work on it internally to make it acceptable to my tastes. It does around 22 ft/lbs in .22 and likes Crosman Premier a lot. I only bought it because I had had enough of the 52 and I got a good trade in deal - as long as it was for a 54

    I still have a monster muzzle weight for the 52, in my desperate attempt to make it shoot more accurately. It was in .177 and with lightweight pellets, loaded for fun, I would often get some going supersonic!!

    I dont belive to the effect of "muzzlestuffs" of any kind...never found real advantages using such things on springers.
    The 48/52 can be accurate only using the right pellet, choosing among:
    - HN Baracuda match;
    - JSB Exact Heavy;
    - CP Heavy (if you find the right die nbr).
    Need to check if your barrel like the 4.51 0r 4.52 more, the max velocity should be in the range 870-900.
    My 52 with a JM Monolith spring and some internal works shots JSBH @ 890-900 fps and prints 1-1,5" groups @ 50yds consistently.
