thanks shadow , it is a nice little pumper for the price . i mostly shoot spring piston guns but i wanted something non hold sensitive and still powerful .the 2100 fills that role nicely .

Great shot Matt, nice rifle too. I used to have the same gun while growing up. I believe it was called the 766 then. I took many a squirrel with that gun.  It was very accurate with pellets. The bb's seemed to curve on long range shots and didn't group well.

Good shooting Matt!  Good riddance to that turd.
Chris is right, it was a 766 American Classic back in the day to be exact.  I did most of my pest control with iron sights.  I cleaned out several thousand vermin with it, wore the bolt out in fact!
