That is a sweet gun! I've been spoiled by semi auto firearms, so I can't help but be curious. Is that a desirable feature for one's first PCP? Or are semi auto PCPs hard to get right?

Pay enough money and there are semi/full autos that seem pretty reliable Huben and Western seem to be very popular.
I fall into the other camp. Pay a lot less but plan on spending some *quailty* time with your purchase. I have 5, 4 Hatsan and an AEA. The Invader .25 is now a lever action. I broke it. The Barrage is twitchy about pellets, magazines and moderators. The Bullmaster, until today, had been problem free, now I have it in pieces. The Sortie Tact is a nice cheap pistol/ carbine. Just don't try to put a moderator on it. Very reliable.
The AEA Terminator has been 100% reliable and is a BEAST.

New guy here as well so I’m not going to give advise lol but I will say this forum and all of the people are top notch so far! By far and away one of the best forums I’ve been a part of and I’ve been in a lot of them over the years because I have so many hobbies! Did you end up picking out a pcp yet? Pump? Curious to see what choices you went with

Fellow Native Texan here hi Jonas! My umarex notos blew away my expectations. With diablo .22 pellets its a absolute laser at 50 yards fps is 700-800, more than adequate for small game. Shot placement is always key of course.

Theres also the airforce texan SS .457 with the carbon fiber tank if you want to drop anything in north america where it stands. I have one with 9 pills put through it total (Sight in and repeat results+buck). Then 1 pill was a little much for the deer around here so I am looking to sell I will have it in classifieds in the very near future. Unbelieveable power full tank will throw 4 380 grain zan slugs at about 850fps (because of the grain weight) whereever you want them at 100 yards. You can always get lighter projectiles.
