Default Hey Joe and Doug!

I have Daisy and a Crossman pistol. They can shoot more than Lewis's
rifle.




What do you mean by "shoot more"?

Did you read the specs?

250 grains at 900 fps. Your Daisy and Crosman are no match.


Crosman has made some pretty decent airguns, but no air
pistol I've heard of will put out that kind of horsepower.
Joe, did you realize that 250gr at 900fps is more muzzle
energy than standard rounds coming out of a .45 ACP?


But I do not have to pump mine up 1500-1,600 times.


I've always wanted one of those semi custom Emglish match
air rifles myself, that would be lots of fun at anchorages.


We love to plink bottles floating in the marina.
