About this deal

Compare this to a CO2 rifle where you don’t have any of this. You just have the gas that’s released and is used to drive your pellet out of the gun. CO2 powered rifles have actually been available from the late 19th Century (~1870) but it has only been relatively recently that we’ve seen such a wide range of modern rifles being produced that use it. It makes sense though. I don’t think my old springer rifle would have kept my son’s attention for as long as his new semi-automatic. Not only does it look the part (I wish I’d been able to have one of those when I was 11!) but it’s a ruddy good gun. If you live in a state or city where air guns are treated as firearms you may be able to take advantage of our FFL special program. Overall, I think the CO2 power plant is excellent, as long as you’re using it for the purpose it was designed for. But, let’s put it another way. A typical tin contains 250 pellets, so you can get through a whole tin using one canister. Personally, I think that’s pretty good. Well, it would be if they were free!

We have a team of expert technicians and a complete repair shop that are able to service a large variety of brands/models of airguns. rapid-fire – on some rifles you have the ability to shoot off several rounds at high speed (semi-automatic rifles). Each time you shoot a CO2 rifle the gas cools down the local environment (i.e. your gun). With several shots, this becomes noticeable and will impact accuracy.

A warranty is provided by each manufacturer to ensure that your product is free of defect in both materials and workmanship. However, the 88-gram canisters are a slightly different story and let me tell you why that is, from my experience. We have a semi-automatic CO2 rifle that is primarily used by my son. Occasionally, we like to just pop outside and spend 10 or 15 minutes shooting at a few targets before coming in again.

Although there are fewer things to go wrong within a CO2 powered rifle, that doesn’t mean you don’t need to look after it. The seals need to be in tip-top condition to contain the carbon dioxide and maintain the correct level of pressure for firing. Which makes it great for a younger shooter or first-time shooter where the slight recoil in a springer can make their shots inaccurate and even uncomfortable to fire. I agree with this totally, sometimes when I’m at home alone I’ll get his rifle out, set up a few targets and just have some fun. No need to worry about pumping or breaking the barrel after every shot. Once the CO2 is loaded, just insert your pellets into the magazine and fire away.

The gas is able to supply consistent levels of power for a prolonged amount of time which means it’s (arguably) the best choice if you want one of these guns. This point leads us very nicely on to the next point… Regarding the rapid-fire issue, well is this really a problem? If you’re using your semi-automatic functionality then you’re most likely having some fun plinking, rather than target shooting. If you are concerned about accuracy, just leave a pause of a few seconds between each shot. The answer to these problems is simple. It only takes a couple of minutes to re-sight a scope (assuming you have one). Perform this task during an average (weather-wise) day and then when you shoot in extreme conditions (for your climate) just re-sight it.
