Thanks for the tip! I have sent inquiries. Is there any custom issues to be aware of with shipping air guns?

Also still interested in other suggestions on suitable pistols if anyone can think of some.

How firm are you on the 2 lbs limit? Fairly firm, but I guess I could go a few.ounces over. Its just a personal preference. I shoot much, much better with a lighter pistol. My favorite 22 pistol for recreational target practice is my Hammerli Trailside, which weighs in at about 30 oz. But put on a ...

OK, based on your input I will start looking for a FAS 604 and if I can't locate one, get a Gamo compact. Both pistols are 900 grams.or less and meet my criteria. Still concerned.with the build quality of the Gamo though based reviews I've read. Feel free to come with additional suggestions if you c...

Well, I would love to get a Feinwerkbau, but I had already eliminated their older spring and pneumatics based on weight. Remember, my first criteria is finding a pistol that weighs 2 pounds or less. I thought the FWB 65/80/90 and 100/102/103 all weighed in at around 3 pounds or more? Or am I mistake...

Thanks for the replies, I will check into the Gamo compact, although reviews appear a bit sketchy from what I have read so far.

I am specifically looking for a springer/pneumatic, so the LP2 is not an option for me.

Let me know if anyone can think of any other models that could fit.

2. Pneumatic or spring loading
3. Suitable for recreational 10m target

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Need help with Anschutz LG380

I am new to 10m air rifle, and recently purchased a pre-owned Anschutz LG380 spring rifle to start practice. I have never owned an air rifle before, so bear with me. I received the gun, it looked like it was in mint condition. No scratches anywhere on the wood, perfect blueing, etc. But three things...

Need help with choosing used air rifle

I am looking to buy a a used air rifle. Primary purpose will be just recreational 10m target (not competitively). I do not want to deal with CO2 or PCP, just a simple pnematic or spring. It has to have decent target sights. Looks are less important, but I want something that lasts and would require ...
