Congratulation my friend . Let us know how it shoots as soon as you can. Did you decide weather to scope it yet or not ? Marvin

hi Marvin
thank you , it came about 6:00PM and we have a full overcast here in Rochester , the fiber sights were very easy to aquire , even in low light . and the piece shoulders so well , i am thinking i will just run with the irons for a while anyway , i have a trap in the basement and will see how it shoots tomorrow , thanks again , dana

One indoor review said this fired as loud as a fire cracker IIR.  Might be a good idea to be ready for the bang down in the basement  : )

hi
 i got a chance to shoot some cardboard today , it is not all that loud , i think those reviewers are used to whisper quite air guns , or lousy firecrackers :^) , i used a string to pull dry patches through the bore till they came out clean , cocked it , and then 110 pumps brought it up from empty to 2000 PSI , just shot some three shot groups , off hand from about twenty feet with the iron sights and it is a great little shooter , looking the rifle over very carefully today , i can say i am still happy as a clam , the workmanship is very clean , and i think Crossman has a great little rifle , thanks , dana :^)

Going to add on...mine came today.  New to me if not totally new.   While waiting for it to ship, collected the 2nd barrel band....made the muzzle attachment.

Will test it, hoping to tune it DOWN a bit for a better shot count, but from my fist tests, it's shooting well.
