Looking for a small springer for a wheelchair shooter

If money is tight.




Xisco use to make one, more as a cheap HW 30 alternative. A supertuned one from Mike Mellick would be a good gun. However Flying Dragons no longer sells them. Not sure if Gamo has a small break barrel. I know Cabelas had some low power air guns cheap guns like Gamos and Stoegers. None of the above hold a candle to a HW 30 which would be the route I would go. This gun will last him a life time and he will never outgrow. The cheap stuff may not last and certainly not as accurate, so fun factor will be less.
Hey those Stoegers ain't bad, worth checking out. I have several along with a bunch of higher end. If the Stoeger was all I had I would be okay with that. Wish you the best.
 
You might try for one of the Junior models, but no idea of stock dimensions.
The Junior (Mini) stock has a trigger-to-butt dimension about half an inch shorter than a regular stock. But as with any 300S variant, it can be lengthened with spacers. The fore end is slightly shorter too. The action, power, trigger, etc., are same as the standard guns.

The biggest difference is the barrel. The Junior's barrel is about 2 inches shorter and does not have a weight sleeve. That makes a huge difference - the "normal" 300S has a full-length sleeve that's extra fat at the muzzle, and its weight out so far from your hands is VERY noticeable. If you can find a normal model without the sleeve, that's about as good as a Junior.

Great selection of photos of various versions here for comparison:
