And another thing with springers- their recoil impulse is such that they can destroy some scopes designed for firearms. The easiest thing if you want a scope is to buy a gun that comes with a scope that is made for it.One thing to keep in mind if you get a Springer ( on top of learning the hold ) is that most new guns will be very loud out of the box.
They always have excess lubricant that winds up in the compression chamber & bore which will detonate ( it's call dieseling) and give you that sonic crack.
At least this happens on the .177's anyways since they're usually rated at 1200fps and typically have an average velocity in the high 900's.
That detonation is just enough to get supersonic velocities.
If you don't want that, make sure you swab the barrel really well before shooting, the dieseling is bad for the piston inside anyways.
One of the biggest mistakes you can make.Thanx a bunch guys .
I knew I'd find help here.
I gave my old re-built Sheridan Blue Streak to my SIL and can't talk him into giving it back.
Imagine that?
Admittedly, it was a PIA to pump as I got older.
