Hi,
Firstly, I should really apologise to the original poster for hijacking and slightly deviating from his original Crosman 600 subject, but one thing just seems to have led to another.
Anyway, I would agree that the Benjamin 'Rocket' is not quite as nice as the Crosman which not only has better sights, but also uses the more readily available 12 grm Co2 capsules. However, I have to admit both are made to good standard for what would have been a relatively cheap, mass produced pistol at the time.
I am attracted to the early American pnuematic pump-up pistols, it's just a shame that one or two strokes isn't sufficient to provide reasonable muzzle energy.
Regards
Brian
