Powerful and Well Built!
Man, the days of standing there pumping after every shot are over! I like to shoot and I was wanting a air rifle to so that I could shoot in my backyard. I still have my childhood Benjamin that is 20 years old so I felt that Benjamin had a quality product.
This air rifle is great! I went with the .22 caliber version and couldn't be happier with its performance and quality. I would say that you can get ~50 shots per charge before needing to pump it back up. Pumping isn't that difficult at all, about the same as a bicycle pump. There is very little recoil, not like the single cock spring guns.
Overall I'm very satisfied with this product and I haven't seen where anyone had any complaints for what all you get.
First impressions.
I been air gunning for well over 40yrs. I have a stable of springers,most tuned and modified to suit me. Own a couple of CO2 guns to round out my collection. Frankly, after I placed my order I was concerned I might have a bit of a problem pumping this bad boy up. Some reviews said it was a real workout! My ordering and shipping went flawlessly. Everything was well packed and gently handled by FedEx. When I opened the box and inspected my Disco it was flawless. Then came the moment of truth. Time to pump this bad boy up. I must admit I was a little bit concerned. No need to worry I pumped this unit up to 2000psi with NO problem. It was really easy. The trick is to make yourself pump slow and deliberate and take full strokes. I wish I counted but Benjamin literature indicated about 110 pumps should fill a empty gun. Even though my air gage showd 0 air pressure I think it had a small amount of air in. It. My pump never got hot,just warm to the touch.Now the fun part. Shot a few...
wonderful invention
I was suprised that this gun holds a charge for months. I haven't had time to shoot it much. I can pump it up very well (I;m 71), but I usually wait until someone comes over and let them shoot a couple rounds and let them pump it up.
I put a 3-9 scope on it but haven't taken the time to see if it will do a dime size group. It is hard to load under the scope and I am looking for some kind of quick loader that hold a few rounds. I found one for the 117 but not the 22.
The first time I pumped it up and removed the hose, all the air came out. I called the factory and they sent be a return label and fixed it for me . It has an impressive stock and a good feel.
It will fire about 30 rounds without pumping so you can take it hunting without taking along a pump or air tank.
