Gamo Big Cat 1200 Air Rifle
|
|
|
Gamo is a Spanish company that has yet to become a household name in the US, but in Europe it's a very big deal in the world of air guns.
Gamo also makes scopes and sights and targets, and it claims to manufacture more pneumatic pellets than anyone on Earth. We tested the Gamo "Big Cat" Model 1200 rifle in our ballistics lab in north Dallas, and we used Gamo ammo to do it.

Walther 1894 Air Rifle
|
|
|
It's a hoot to shoot! Far and away the most authentic looking retro-gun we've ever tested and reviewed the lever action. Walther pays homage to the famous Winchester .30-30 model of 1894.
It comes in three incarnations: standard, standard with a scope, and “Wells Fargo” (brass plated receiver, no scope). We opted for the one with the scope.

Baikal IZH-61 Air Rifle
|
|
|
The first time we saw this gun we knew we had to test it. It’s just so bizarre looking, it must have come from an old Soviet death ray experiment or Flash Gordon’s space ship. It's a smallish gun, 31 to 33 inches long, depending on how you have the adjustable stock set, and it only weighs in at 4.3 pounds. Think of it as a carbine.
If the name of the gun makes you think of Siberian Lake Baikal the largest fresh water lake in the world which contains a whopping 20 percent of Earth’s fresh surface water then you’re off target. The Baikals are made in Izhevsk, a secretive Russian defense industry city that is the post-war home of famed Soviet assault rifle designer Mikhail Kalashnikov.

Crosman 2100 Air Rifle
|
|
|
The Crosman 2100 air rifle is, in both form factor and function, essentially the big brother of the Crosman Pumpmaster 760 that is reviewed elsewhere here on Hunter Buzz.
We tend to like Crosman products because of their generally well thought out design, implementation, and reliability, and this air gun is no exception.

Crosman Pumpmaster 760 Air Rifle
|
|
|
Probably more youngsters have been trained in the safe handling of firearms with the venerable Daisy Red Rider lever-action BB gun than any other air gun in the world. The second gun on that list would likely be the Crosman Pumpmaster 760.
Crosman claims to have sold more than 12 million copies of this smoothbore multi-pump carbine since its introduction in 1964, and they’re still cranking them out at the rate of approximately a thousand a day. You can’t argue about the price: Pyramid Air sells them brand new for $30, and WalMart undercuts that by a dollar.
