Thank you for the breakdown! I wanted to Notos for the size and ease of hand pumping but this is making me rethink the JTS!!!

What cheap guns are actual bargains?
- Thread starter Sawney Bean
- Start date
Honestly, you can't go wrong with any of these( Notos, JTS, Urban ) as well as a few high end rifles (RAW, BSA R10, AA510S) As I said before, I have all three mid-priced rifles and enjoy each one for different reasons. I agree with the prior post regarding JTS value and EXCELLENT affordable magazines. Mine in .22 is also very accurate and quite a bargain but so are the other two. Best move is to jump in and enjoy the ride. If you're like most of us you'll own and enjoy all of them at some point anyway. May as well get started. Its a fun and fullfilling journey.

I think that high end guns that are worth every penny would justify it's own thread. There'd probably be a lot more disagreement about that though. It's kind of hard to dispute the value of a $300 gun that does a lot of things very well, even if it does have some flaws, but when you're paying $1500+ then people start to get really picky.

Some manufacturers are selling barrels that cost almost 600 bucks and magazines for $100 . But yet a Gamo Urban is under $300 . Some big names are definitely gouging customers on parts.

Here's Cpr on an old thread
Daisy 415- about 35$, nice power, slim, 21rds built in mag, very good trigger for a double action. A bit loud.
Notos- got mine 209$. Small quiet accurate 21fpe. Bad trigger.
Hatsan Edge .22 (I had the gas piston) - under 100$, had it for 10 years before i sold it, heavy as a brick of iron, but just as indestructible, very accurate with factory sights, recoil can launch small satellites into orbit.
Tippman Cronus- (yes it's a paintball gun) cheap as dirt and like the Hatsan- indestructible. Good trigger.

All are worth the investment, anll can be found used for a couple of bucks. I just won an eBay auction for an 2nd gen MROD for $300, and all have huge aftermarket followings. Customizable to your wallets limit if you choose to do so.

I've said this before:
Quality is like buying oats. If you want clean fresh oats you have to pay a fair price. If you are satisfied with the oats that have already been through the horse, they come a bit cheaper.

I have owned a few 1377s, never wore one out yet. I end up giving them away eventually and them miss it and get another.
