Pesting, .177 cal., probably 25 yards max. Budget? $1000 or less. ThanksHello @ontargetnow!
You should get a lot of folks giving you some good advice but it would help if you could tell us a bit more about your requirements.
1) Caliber
2) Paper targets or pesting
3) Distance you plan to shoot most
4) And a budget always helps
I enjoy shooting my pistols as much and maybe more than my rifles.

Hello again @ontargetnow!Pesting, .177 cal., probably 25 yards max. Budget? $1000 or less. Thanks
Hello @ontargetnow!
I figured more people would have shared their pistol photos with you by now. OK here are a few of my Diana Bandit .177 caliber and I get 20-plus shots per fill at 719fps: 1) with a Red Dot sight and very accurate within 25 yards. 2) with a Hawke 3-12x40 scope deadly out to 25 yards. 3) Target that I shot at 20 yards.
Hope this will help some.

$1000 for just gun or gun + potential optic
That $1000 was just for the pistol. I have a compressor and tank already. Scope and rings would be more.Hello again @ontargetnow!
With that budget it opens the door for quite a few pistols in the $350 to $550 range leaving you funds for the accessories needed and a air cooled Air Compressor.
May I suggest that you look at several dealer web sites and read all the specifications on those Pistols that interest you the most. Then ask the forum members who own those ( more than one ) pistols for some advice.
