1875 Remington

I have been looking at one of these for plinking around home. Cabelas here has them. Reviews seem good. Price is right for sure.

RR, I think you would enjoy that gun, but be aware that there are limitations to CO2 as an air gun power supply. Pressure drops with CO2 as the temperature drops, so either shoot this one, indoors, or use it outdoors only in the warmer months.

If you want a repeater air pistol like that, CO2 is your best option, actually you're only option. I wouldn't let that stop you from going that route, though. Just don't shoot it much below temps at the 50 degree or so level.

.
Check Amazon to see if it's available in Canada. Price here is a lot lower than Cabalas.

Looks like Amazon.ca (our version) does not carry it. Thanks though. I have also been looking at the Colt SAA Peacemaker bb/pellet guns, but can't seem to locate one here with 7.5" barrel. Only 5 or shorter.

It appears the 'cartridges' also act as the actual 'barrel' , and the barrel on the gun itself is just representative of the design. Length wouldn't really matter in this case.
