The compact GPO scopes are nice. I bought both the SF & FFP. I really like my SF, but had to send the FFP back, the ret was just too difficult for me to see. But that is the case with most FFP scopes I have tried. Like you say, if you use mostly higher powers, they would be fine. I am...

I hunt with them. To me, they are very good for squirrel hunting. I have probably owned over a half a dozen. I like the 10x24 best, but they don't work with my glasses. So, I mostly use the 5x ones now. You won't see the YouTube guys use them because you can't use a film thru scope device...

Every time I see those, they make me smile. I had a Tempest I bought from Beeman in the early 80s. I gave it to a nephew; I hope he still has it. Do they still make them?

WHOA..

I may have misspoke; It may be the .22 gk1 that I get 30 shots per fill. I have three GK1, and it has been a while since I ran them over the chrony & it is starting to run together in my head.

You definitely would not want it to be your first PCP. If you want or expect your next gun to be better. It's like giving a kid a Lamborghini for their first car. They would not appreciate anything else.

Accuracy is dime size at 40 yards, the whole mag. With 5000 psi fill, probably 30 shots at 800 fps with 25 grain pellets. I took squirrel hunting some and was taking squirrels up to 50 yards. I usually filled it to 4500 and would refill it every time I had to reload. There are many variables...

is this the same rifle? says 7.6 pounds https://utahairguns.com/product/fx-king-synthetic-airgun-600mm/

I have owned a couple dozen high quality PB .22s. I like my GK1 better than all of them. Even my S&W 41. Heck, I like the GK1 so much I have 3. PCP handguns are not everyone's cup of tea. I would never try to convince someone to give up their PB for a PCP & I am sure no one could ever get...

Four years seem too light to me. I always thought killing one bald eagle was like 10 years. With so many people involved, I wonder why it took so long to come to light.

Good looking dog.

I got mine a few days ago and put it on my .25 impact. I hunted with it for two days. So far, I like it. The ret is thick enough for my eyes, and the daylight bright dot is lovely. It has zero stop, and I removed that. I have not used it enough to say how well I really like it.

I got these three yesterday morning. I just changed scopes the day before and was anxious to try it out. I like the little GPO daylight bright dot.

I preordered these two scopes six months ago and forgot about them until I got an email saying they were coming. I don't know why I ordered the FFP, as I have never had one I liked, and I am not sure I would need that for my short-range shooting. I am guessing that I will keep the SFP and sell...
