I have both both a Brocock Compatto XR Sniper (2020) version in .177, and I agree the gun is a bit over prices for what you get, and the trigger is definitely nothing to brag about. When comparing the Brocock trigger to the HW100, the HW100 is far superior, BUT I have a Taipan Compact in .25 caliber and the Taipan’s trigger beats all of them. Plus the Taipan is build like a something brick house. I would be interested in selling the Brocock and getting either a Edgun Matador or Taipan Vet standard or long in .177.
From what I have heard, if you don’t have a budget issue, I would go with Daystate, Taipan or EdGun. The Taipan for sure will be more solid and you can adjust the hammer power spring like nothing, I am loving that feature on my 25 cal compact. Also, I have an FX Impact Compact in .22 cal, which I can recommend, but you have to buy a separate barrel if you want the compact version because it isn’t sold in .177 stock.
