I will answer that for you. This is an enthusiast forum. Most people who will be buying this category rifle will not visit nor hang out on a PCP or air gun forum, they are not enthusiasts. In fact, most younger folks do not do forums at all prefering social media. These people do not know anything about a steel breech or why they would want one. And they are unlikely to mod the rifle.
This rifle is intended to make a break through into box stores where normally all one sees are $150 to $250 break barrel Gamo scatter guns. These people will be comparing a 48 inches long, nearly 8 pounds break barrel to a 36 inches long and 3.9 pounds PCP that will be packaged as a set at already below $220 for pump, pellets and rifle. A polymer breech in a world full of polymer guns is nothing to them.
For enthusiasts, there are already many mods that can be done to slick the rifle up, increase power, add a scope or steel breech. The 3622 is so tiny and light that every time I pick it up I nearly throw it through the ceiling. It is a cute little thing that will be fun to mod out, like enthusiast are want to do
. Mine was already discounted. I am thinking that in a few more months we will see additional discounts or combo packaging options. Last edited:
