I bought this gun a year ago for $120.00 for fiddling around in my backyard for targets and squirrels that invade my bird feeders. I'm 79y/o and thought it would be a good past-time - WRONG! The gun is accurate and very powerful, and that is the problem. I can't get a scope mount to stay firm, so I'm always fiddling around with tightening screws and trying new mounts. It's gotten to be a pain and I'd like to sell it: $50 plus shipping from Maine. It does have one defect: the recoil hole in the barrel has been deformed by the recoil pins in the mounts moving from the rifle's recoil. The rim of the hole has been elongated a bit. You can still screw down a pin into the barrel though, so i don't know if that matters much. FYI, the break barrel on this gun does not rely on a spring. It has a gas cylinder that propels the pellets. This I like because you can load and cock it and not worry how long the gun is cocked. I heard that you can't do that with a spring break barrel. Besides the elongated recoil hole its in perfect condition and when the scope is secure it's very accurate. Thanks.
