At 10m, it shouldn’t be too difficult for a rifle to be accurate. (Note I said rifle, not shooter) That one looks like a side lever of some sort, so u never know 🤔 For $75 bucks, it’s worth buying it just to see if it can hold any sort of a group at 10m… And if it’s an Olympic competition rifle(even from the 70’s) it should stack pellets, all be it at 5fpe 😳 |

It'd be nice to shoot I bet. Crack out the bell target in the hallway.

Ive had one or two match rifles and the king of the spring match rifles really is the Feinwerkbau 300s. Its a highly engineered weapon that uses a simple spring piston with tioght tolerances and a metal piston ring to seal, on a recoil dampening sledge. The Gamo is single stroke pneumatic so more critical sealing parts etc. The Gamo is a good rifle, with a match grade trigger (not a Feinwerkbau crisp as glass breaking trigger, but still very capable). They were not around long, and had to compete with some stiff competition. They probably simply couldnt break into the market so became unviable - so many parts and the labour to assemble this type of gun must have been huge. With that comes scarecity of parts, if the rifle breaks a part you are unlikely to replace it without considerable cost and effort to source. And from memory there was a part that was known to fail. Goodfor collectors but I wouldnt suggest it to be a high use weapon. Also, I have seen that seller a bit, the start price isnt the reserve so at the moment it sounds cheap but last time it was listed it got just over $500 and reserve wasnt met...

You have any idea if then trigger would transfer to more modern gamo.?
Shame they never took off. Might have encouraged gamo to make more high end guns. |

I suppose any trigger can be transferred to any gun with the right engineering modifications... Id suggest no though.. with SSP rifles the sear is only holding the spring tention of a valve striker / hammer, where modern gamo needs to hold the entire force of the piston and the ultramegamaxxim spring or gas ram.
