Purpose – The purpose of this air gun is to serve as an introduction to “gun safety” and handling for youth. Parallel to this, the gun has enough power to make close range target practicing possible and make it fun for both adults and youth as a joint activity. Handling – Excellent weight and height distribution ratio for smaller shooters. Adolescents with 80lbs in weight and 54” in height and above should be able to carry and handle the gun by themselves; smaller shooters can still have fun with help from supervisory adults. Loading – Loading is easy and has a good feel to it; at 19lbs of force, it’s about ½ the effort of loading a full-blown air gun. Smaller shooters can learn how to lean the stock against the ground and still manage to load by themselves. Adolescents should have no problem to break the barrel and pump it in one motion. The safety trigger works well and out of the way while loading happens. Teach them from the get go to be alert of where their little fingers are and never near the breaking mechanism when they are loading the gun. Range and Accuracy – This gun is accurate and possible to do grouping at 10-12 yards; providing you use good quality pellets. Cheap and inconsistent pellets won’t produce good results. Consistent mid-range quality and cost combination in the play would be Crosman pellets; both Destroyer and Wadcutter pellets work well with this gun. If you go with premium type of pellets (expensive!) like Platinum Ammo, the effective range increases to about 15 yards with grouping. Green Dot Sight (included in the package) – This is not very useful and the only little negative point about the package. It takes a lot of “trials and errors” to get the sight adjusted and make it somewhat useful (hardly). This is beyond the patience of any youth (or adults for that matter) that I know of. Don’t bother putting it on; because you will take it off later. On the other hand, the manual adjustments on the gun work well, you can dial it in after a dozen shots. You can always add a regular scope to the gun if you want to. With a 3x scope and premium pellets and a lot of practicing, the effective range tops at 20 yards. Maintenance and Cleaning – The gun has a short barrel design and noise dampening chambers that work well and reduce the noise level to acceptable level for youth. But because of these useful features, the residue built-up is a bit faster than regular air guns. The easiest way to keep the gun always clean and at good performance level is to use “dense cleaning cotton” pellets. The good type is made by AirVenturi part number AV-3860. After about 30-40 shots; shooting a couple of quick cleaning pellets in a row should be sufficient. Conclusion – This youth air gun is an excellent product and value for its intended use. Of course, you can always find other air guns with more features but also considering the price point of this air gun and what you get out of it is very well balanced.Read full review

Got this for my grandson for Christmas and he loves it. My son and I have Gamos and he is thrilled that he has a gun like us. It is Gamo quality. Nothing cheaper because it is the youth model. RIght now it is too hard for him to open on his own (which is what I wanted so that an adult has to be present for him to use it). As he gets older and is able to shoot it on his own, he will have had the experience with an adult present. It should serve him well for many years and gives him a chance to get used to using a gun. Very happy with this in every way.

This gun shoots pellets but that's about it. It is NOT accurate like advertised and shoots all over the place. The best thing is that it's easy to load? My 9 year old can cock and shoot it by himself but no accuracy! BUMMER!
