Under $100 GoTo/avoids

Time to shake things up

*might help newcomers*
Say you have:

> $100 plus tax included max
>can only purchase 1 pellet slinger
>Have to recommend one to avoid in that price range
>* you had to personally use the purchsed one and only that one for a year; should help with deciding on longevity overall

Post your picks!!

*I will post mine when I figure out my answer

Crosman American Classic 1377… for years it was my only airgun.

I'm assuming you meant $1,000, not $100 but maybe I'm wrong.

I would do this too or maybe an xs12

Crosman 2240.

2240- ditto.

Always wanted a Sheridan silver streak, but cldnt afford it. Settled for a Crosman 760, I was 9yrs old.

Slingshot, marbles from the Dollar Store. Run out of those, use rocks. Then you can save more money by not buying pellets. Money ahead at end of the year. My son and I would shoot 1 inch spinner target at about 20 feet. Made for good fun time.

760 for me.I've had 2-3 over the years all of them lasted many years,still have one in storage somewhere.
was the first bb/pellet gun I ever got when I was a kid in the 70's and used to kill rabbits,rats,mice,squirrels,various fowl,frogs and the heads off grasshoppers.

Beeman P17. Pure fun factor. No cheaper pellet pusher with accuracy that makes you go

Revisiting this: I pick the 880

jetpopt · Jun 18, 2023

I cannot write a fair answer, because I’ve only ever had one, the 880.

However, I will happily keep it, and not for just one year. The question is, Am I going to wear it out before then?!? Been shooting it 3 or 4 times a week since buying it 3 months ago.

Keep it oiled and us updated

Crosman M4-177, though possibly a stocked 1322.

If I was your dad I would have left you with that 760, until you were a bit older, and I knew you would appreciate and take care of it. Then I would have bought us both one.

I had a Chinese B3 that I liked and was very accurate. Probably a hit or miss on getting a good one.

I'm intrigued by those. As long as you get $80 worth of fun!

Back in the day, Buds gun shop was blowing Slavia 634's out the door for $100 bucks. One of the best buys ever.

Septicdeath · Jun 19, 2023

Save up $50 and get one of these with full power tune. You can't afford not to.
