Thanks PT7, I would think that your local Cabela's should have a Cave. They are usually in the back of the store. Also the website has a Bargain Cave section. They sell discontinued, overstocked, damaged, and returned items. A lot of the "damaged" is just package damage.

It's been a while, but I'd say at least a hundred shots. It drops off fast when it's about done.

I checked an old thread I had on these guns. I had tried a pellet, but it never left the cartridge. I'm happy with the bb gun for now. Perhaps a pellet gun down the road.

BTW, I got a bulk pkg of C02 cylinders for cheap on ebay. That was the best source for inexpensive cylinders. You tend to go through plenty when having that much fun.

Walmart online prices constantly change. Last time I bought, I got the 40pk for < $14. That is as cheep as they get.

Right now they're about $18:

or you can pay $1 more for the same thing:

You can pay $2 more and get 15 less cartridges:

So that is how the Walmart site is.....crazy....

BTW, I bought a TON of Umarex BB's online at walmart for $2 for 1500. Right now they are $4.99, so that is how much price varies day from day.

I also got Redfield Binoculars for $26. That error was quickly corrected, but they honored the deal. I do the free pickup at store..........

The SA airguns really are great replica's. Interesting to note that most shooters comment that the BB version is actually more precise than the grooved pellet version. And of course BB's would be cheaper than pellets.
Here is what the air gun guru Tom Gaylord said in his review.

and here is a great pictorial of all the models and a video.

For some guns I shoot the Daisy Zinc BBs.

For the Colt Python I shoot the Umarex BBs.

And I have a few thousand Hornady Black Diamond BBs I picked up cheap, that I'm saving for a special occasion.
