A lot will of course depend on what you want and expect. When I bought the one I have all I wanted was something for "fun" and pest control. The accuracy is fine for what I do even with the cheapest pellets I could find. Kind of like the 10/22. They seem pretty damn good out of the box to me but, they can sure as hell be impressive if someone want to really put money into one. Some of these air rifles turn in accuracy that is scary good. If you just want something that is fun and you can play with in the house even? Most any of them will give you that.
I have an Avenger in .22. Way more gun than the price tag would suggest. buckrail.com 3D prints a very nice tactical style stock for it at a really reasonable price.
Sorry, try buck-rail.com
Trust me, that's just the tip of the iceberg.Well due to Reno and some a$$hat here who told me they make a select fire PCP I could not stand it and have one coming
Kept looking at video of the damn thing at work finally could not stand it and ordered one. Damn thing looks like it will be some over the top fun but they are pricey.
I almost bought one of the BB select fire ones that was a LOT less because it looked like just plain fun. Then I watched several video's and they have a BIG problem with the way the mags were made so that stopped me from them. I had no idea Hatsan had been making select fire pellet ones for quite a while now and even in .30 caliber. That was what really got me going. I finally could not stand it and ordered one. Damn thing looks like it will not just be fun as all hell but could humanly dispatch the wild K9's here safely. Ordered a bunch of ammo and mags along with it. Ammo has rolled in now just waiting for the gun.
Mags are hit and miss on them. Either the spring is screwed up or it's not. I bought a mp40 and the mag it came with was screwed up. I bought another mag off Amazon and it's never had even 1 issue. The mag I sent in under warranty I sent an email every month month saying I'm still waiting for a replacement. With covid stuff it took so long they finally said I can have my choice of guns for free (within same genera range as mp40). I said "cool".I almost bought one of the BB select fire ones that was a LOT less because it looked like just plain fun.

I'm tempted to get the grease gun cuz it wasn't available at the time. The mp40 is a hoot. 52 bbs per mag. I sanded mine down a bit to make it look aged just for fun. Look weight and feel is like the real thing. Reciprocating action is one of the best parts about it. Feels like a Tommy gun or something when firing.
Is that a PCP or CO2? Does look kind of fun. Can't remember now which one I was looking at that was a PCP. If was made in two configurations. One CO2 and one PCP. The PCP was what I was close to trying. Then I stared watching video and there was a LOT of problems with the mags. They could only be loaded with a tool you got with the gun and it was made VERY poorly. The mags could not be loaded without it and even then mags had a bad time jamming up. It was a huge hassle to fix when they did. I was glad I had not ordered one. Those were just going to be some fun as a toy. When I found out Hatsan was making a serious one and had been for a good while I was surprised I had never heard of it. Price was shocking but damn as I watched more and more video I finally could not stand it and pulled the trigger on one.Mags are hit and miss on them. Either the spring is screwed up or it's not.

Co2. Mag holds 2 cartridges. It has a long spring and like I say it comes from the factory either screwed up or fine. It doesn't appear to be something that fails over time (at least I haven't found that). They must have had a run of bad springs I'm guessing. Daisy precision bbs have a bit more power and consistency (accuracy). Hornady and regular Daisy also work. Crosman bbs are garbage for these guns. I was really surprised at the sound. You can shoot it and someone standing close by wouldn't give it a second thought.Is that a PCP or CO2? Does look kind of fun. Can't remember now which one I was looking at that was a PCP.

Does look like it would be a blast to play around with. I am sure I will be burning some cash with mine when it gets here for a while. Even ordered a large SCBA tank to make fills faster. Will have to set up a berm to catch the lead. Then every so often I can salvage some of it for scrap to offset the cost of the ammo
Your kid would have a blast with that thing!
My kid?!? More like me!
Looks like a VERY nice rifle and looks like they have been around a good while. When I was looking at these I read a lot about the Lothar barrels being top of the line. Having been spoiled now with the PCP's they are king to me but, that one looks like a sweet rifle and capable of some VERY impressive accuracy.
