Other Show your CO2 pistols

Did you receive it yet?
Yes! I picked it up on the 25th of February. It's quite pellet fussy, even with a variety of flat heads, but seems okay with RWS Hobby. It is a blast to shoot, but isn't the powerful airgun I imagined it to be. My plan is to turn down a longer length of barrel to improve the fps, just short of time... :confused:

Here's mine,
10" barrel off a 1322, my own trigger sear, my own full length shroud/moderator and bolt handle. Millett red dot was a craigs list special, 10 bucks. Grips were blanks off ebay. Quiet and accurate like it's supposed to be.

I run 14.3gr domed in mine, no jamming at all which I attribute to the rounded nose on the pellets. I get about 35 shots per cylinder but limit it to 30 and dry fire the last few until it goes full-auto and dies. Otherwise it could jam as the auto-loader isn’t fully cycling. That’s something to avoid because some of the auto-loader internals are a bit delicate and you don’t want them getting “slammed” against a solid stop.
I also extended the barrel and set the gap to .002”, and that definitely brings up the fps

Is that a factory length air tube with a long steel breech? Looks super shot and cool.
Thx

It's a standard 2240/2300t with a cut and recrowned .22 barrel and a disco front sight. The breech is POM to keep it light but I may change back to a steel breech because i kind of like the weight. I cut 3 coils of the hammer spring and it increases the shot count to about 40 at consistent speed. I can get 5 shot ragged hole at 10 yards. Hoping to make it a .25 stubby soon, just need to turn the barrel.
 
3 great Co2 pistols I enjoyed very much

1) Sig P365

Pros
Tiny
Awesome trigger
Great sights
Holds lots of rounds for a tiny gun
Cons
Sig's seal quality is meh... prone to leakage
Slide is real finicky this gun isn't for newbies
Cheapy ejection port cover
Can suffer from protruding firing pin (solution- cock before removing/inserting mags)

2) Smith and Wesson T4e

Pros

Wow everything about this gun feels so good
High quality build
Internal mechanism works great
Great sights
Trigger is good enough, you can rip off shots
Surprisingly very accurate
Powerful
Can shoot paint (No richochet and more target options, no worry of cleaning up little metal balls.. it all washes away.) and nylon balls
U can find various models for 150ish sometimes
Nice weight

Cons

Can suffer from protruding firing pin (cock b4 inserting mag...)
Weird seal at top of mag can fall apart from barrel movement, but has no discernable effect
Sometimes has issue of not firing when trigger is pulled (solution- pull again!)
.43 cal is weird size= more expensive rounds
Wish the Co2 wasn't in the mag
Isn't Tippman quality (But then Tippmans are indestructible bricks)

3) Daisy 415

Pros


Underrated gun
Thin body
Great trigger for being double action
Very simple design, nothing extra to break
Integrated mag (21 rds!)
Front fiber optic
Powerful
Supposedly well tuned for Co2 consumption to power
Nicely accurate
Easy Co2 puncture
Cheap

Cons

Loud
Get rid of the recessed barrel, it's long enough
Get rid of beavertail it's long enough ( and no blowback so unnecessary)
Get rid of the safety, it's so fat on a thin gun and unnecessary imo
U need to glue some sort of bright stickers onto the plain rear sights
Mag can fit waay more if they double stack it
Weird grip is uncomfortable
