So I've been shooting the Cometa Fenix 400 Gas Ram rifle the past month. I have put about 4000 shots through it so far. I put 500 through it in the last 4 hours.
Here's the skinny.
It kicks pretty hard and it jumps forward. The trigger is funny. The open sights are iffy. The bluing is rubbing off where I'm manhandling it with my gritty palms.
Its got a plastic trigger, plastic trigger guard, hollow plastic stock, funky plastic sights and a hard plastic buttpad.
That's every bad thing I can say about the rifle. I tried to find something else but I couldn't find anything.
I named her Maria Chiquita Alvarez. She spits Crosman domes at a steady 745 fps and can hit a quarter at 50 yards 4:5 times. A crushed beer can at 70 yards every darn time. 20 green army men were decapitated tonight with as many shots. Their bodies were shot to pieces and those pieces were shot. If you can see it you can hit it. She's a keeper.
The trigger is different. But it works great. It's plastic. Forgive me father but I like it.
Her plastic stock fits me well. I know it's wrong but I think I may be in love with her.
She will keep shots all within 1/2" ctc at 25 yards with an occasional flyer. Plenty good for my purposes. And she's a sensible girl that buys her pellets at Wal Mart. She likes the CPHP's best so who am I to disagree?
She gets along fine with the frauleins and is warming up to the Turkish girls. Even the ol' 97 has accepted her. I'm thinking about bringing her sister over on a visa to live with us if things keep working out like this!
