I have the gamo bug right now I really love these pellet rifles so with that being said if anyone has a 22 cal newer model or .177 newer model they are willing to part with I can either pay a fair price or trade ammo for it let me know?

Two months old. Excellent shooter.

Gamo Silent Cat .177

Gamo Silent Cat .177 Break-barrel Rifle

Gamo Silent Cat .177 Break-barrel Rifle (NO SCOPE, but you don't want a Gamo scope anyway.) DOES have and include front and rear-adjustable fiber-optic sights. Purchased this very fine springer new from Pyramyd Air, June of this year, for $160. I've used it 2 or 3-thousand rounds, so it's...

I don't know when the model first came out, if that's the issue. Still sold new online. But if you haven't owned one yet, it's a great gun.

no your model is outdated and the new model is much better with more feet per second . l like your rifle just not meet my expectations

Oh, then you really don't have a Gamo "bug" as much as an itch to buy a new gun. I can appreciate that. Good luck sir.

BTW, IMO, don't buy a gun based solely upon FPS. Or FPE. Or any other singular number.
That's like buying a car because of it's HP or it's weight. Really depends on the driver and the task at hand.
Folks in general in the air-gun groups seem way too focused on spec numbers instead of results.

You're probably not going to do tight groups or kill shots with a break-barrel beyond 100-yards, so the extra few hundred FPS/FPE probably isn't going to make much difference. Especially when you consider the gimmicky ammo used to get those numbers.

Real lead, real weight, real flat and real long is going to cut down several hundred FPS from advertised.

Thanks! I didn't mean to sound as if I'm pushing you into buying mine, not going to break me either way. But if you really have the "gamo bug", don't overlook older versions you can't get new anymore. They've made a lot more than they have listed for sale today. There's even a difference in versions depending on country of sale.

Sorry, didn't mean to turn your WTB ad into a thread. But in all fairness, it's not as it seems.
