Gonna wait till there are plenty of reviews and hopefully a sale or coupon to take the bite out of the price, but gonna get one if I have to steal it.

I try to avoid impulse buying this kind of thing not because I don't want one, just looking at it tells me this would be cool to own but, it's because my psychological make up would force me to take it completely apart and try to figure out how I could make it shoot faster or better some how. I've lost count of all of the perfectly good toys and appliances I've ruined over the years trying to "Make Them Better."
I wonder if this BB gun could be retrofitted with a slightly larger HPA cylinder with an air output regulator to bump up the velocity a bit? Something to think about.

This is a pretty cool looking gun. I see a pretty big market for it.

A rifled barrel to allow best use of lead BBs would extend accurate range. A velocity of 550-600+ FPS with lead pellets is more consistent with CO2 rifles in this class like the 10/77.
There are several CO2 pistols that use belt drive magazines that feed pellets semi auto.
Such a nicely made rifle with less velocity and accuracy than a old Crosman 760 kids pellet gun with rifled barrel is a waste. Still has immense cool factor though.
.177 BB at only 425 fps? Might be fun for a little plinking, probably not any use for small game.
Can't let my 16 year old son see this though or he would be begging for it.

It was tempting, the announcement pyramyd sent out during the shot show, a little less hype and a bit of research, and, I want the same that;
1. shoots pellets.
2. decent trigger.
3. blow back action
4. PCP.
Gonna keep saving my pennies.
