I found a 165$ pcp

[Bullwhisper]

on flying dragon air guns .com I found a air gun in my price range (I.e broke) 
http://flyingdragonairrifles.org/index.php?route=product/product&path=59&product_id=56 
i really want a pcp, because of the ease of use lack of kick and the sheer AWSOME that comes with pcps I have a break barrel that's just to much kick for the inexpensive scopes I plan on a hammers for magnum air rifles around 60$ to hopefully solve that issue but back to this steal of a pcp what is the more experienced pcp users opinion on China made pcps?

I would be careful with that gun. It has been reported that one of those exploded sending the air tube into orbit, never to be found. I'm surprised he is still selling them.

EDIT- I checked your link, now says "Item not found" so maybe he isn't selling them any more ??

The link says "Second Generation", but don't believe it!

The air tube threads in these airguns are not the stuff of champions. Personally, I wouldn't trust one with a CO2 cartridge in it!

RUN!!!!!!!!

If you are looking for an inexpensive PCP, put a couple of bucks to it and get a Discovery. That's your best bang for the buck if you are on a tight budget. I hear the Flying Dragon PCP hand pump is pretty good though.

For about 200$ you can get a qb79 with a Ninja SHP hpa tank, it will give you way more shots and possibly more accuracy

This one seems like a decent deal, and safer: http://www.archerairguns.com/QB79-Air-Rifle-Bundle-p/qb79bundle.htm

 

[Bullwhisper]

Can I fill that with air it colder than it is hot here in the north west because if so then heck yeah thank you fe7565

 

[fe7565]

I let others chime in who are more familiar with the QB79, but I think you can fill with air as long as you don't exceed the CO2 pressure it was designed for. In cold climates air could work better anyway. But I let others who know more about CO2 and this rifle confirm. Or call the dealer and ask.

This is setup for HPA.http://www.archerairguns.com/QB79-PCP-Air-Rifle-Bundle-p/qb79pcpbundle.htm
The CO2 qb79 will not work on air. Well, technically it will, but not worth a damn.

For ten bucks more I'll get a disco I looked at that last week but for the money might as well

"Bullwhisper"For ten bucks more I'll get a disco I looked at that last week but for the money might as well

The difference in a Disco and a QB79 with a 13ci bottle is about 100 plus shots per fill. I've got a .Disco, a QB78 and a QB79. All of which I've "modded". Can't tell you when I last shot the Disco.....

 

[ajshoots]

As BigTinBoat said, the QB79 will get tons more shots than a disco. I have had numerous CO2 QB's but never an HPA, but the quality is good and there are tons of parts available. I have had 5 disco's, they are a good gun, but the shot count is low. The disco also has a large availabilty of parts both aftermarket and stock. Either will make a great gun. I feel the QB trigger is better and can be made better than the disco hands down. You can however change the disco trigger to a marauder trigger, but that adds alot of money to the disco.

Just save for the Mrod, I just got a .25 and I can't put it down! Too much fun!

 

[Bullwhisper]

Loud I know what you mean I've seen the guys online (here and u-tube)
whacking pests with the .25 all the way up to coyotes. I saw that and some yotes actually just "took" my cat none to long ago it's why I got a higher power air gun than my variable pump pneumatic crosmen m4-177 but I made the mistake of getting the gamo in the same caliber, I whacked a crow at around 30 yards last week spine shot dropped him but I feel that I would need at the least a .22 for anything bigger than a coon.
I made the mistake of, Buying then research, come to find out I need to be a world class marksmen to get it done on anything bigger than a large peat bird. With the 177 plus the IGT from gamo is just ripped my scope all to crap.

 

[Bullwhisper]

And I will be saving up for the QB with the hpa tank, do you know of a place I could get most of the good tunes for it?
and a thumbwhole stock. 

 

[Removed]

The extra few dollars is well worth knowing a gun is safe..why gamble with your life for a few bucks...
