2 Gamo Questions

[dark1961]

Due to the poor trigger on my Gamo, I have to aim at the left side of the bullseye to hit it directly because once the trigger gives "after a long travel" the gun will swing slightly right.

1. Brain Fart...witch way to adjust scope to compensate for right swing?

2. What way do you adjust the trigger screw on a Gamo rifle to lessen travel or make trigger more crisp? I know, I know it's Gamo!!!!!

According to owners manual, trigger adjustment for less travel, front screw, turn clockwise (you can turn to limit) this will eliminate excess travel in trigger, rear screw, you can do same thing, adjust to your taste, whatever feels good, if you replace rear screw with slightly longer one you can get even more adjustment, it can be made a decent trigger with a screwdriver and a little adjusting, down to around 4 pound pull or so, play with it.

The scope adjuster knobs (big knobs, one on side, one on top) side knob is for right and left, marked R L, seems you need to twist/ turn the knob to the right, try that, the other knob on the top is for elevation , up and down.

You May able to adjust it more than the stock trigger setup is capable of by installing a longer screw (.5 mm or so) The thing is,it Can be made TOO light! So undertake this mod. Only if you have prior trigger tuning experience!! If over-adjusted the weapon my fire if bumped or dropped! ...or just not cock.
