Again sorry if this is a stupid question, but I have never held one of these newer pcp rifles. The barrels look awfully long, thin, and for the most part unsupported. Do they get bent easily ? Not sure how to ask how durable, easily they do get bent. But if any body’s like placed one against wall and had it slide down ? Bumped one on the bench ? And if they get bent, I take it they are replaceable, right ?
Barrels bending ?

As stated more than a bump. They actually don't bend that easy. Then again rather than replacing they are not that difficult to straighten.

did you bend one ????
like everyone has said the barrels a tough but care and common sense is your best way not to have a bent barrel, broken scope, damaged stock, you name it
I have read about all of the above too many times

No I haven’t even held one, just checking them out and that’s one thing i notice is that the barrels are long on many of these pcps and thin and unsupported. It just looks as though they would be fragile, or at lest far easier to bend or nock out of alignment then your normal “gun. “

I had a barrel of a Beeman RX get bent by it getting knocked off of a shooting bench and landing on it's muzzle in just the "right" way. I had it corrected by sending it to a professional airgunsmith..
