I sighted in the The Fusion Black yesterday,knowing that I was hooking up with Jeff for a farm hunt today! :) I had already installed my Bushnell so now I needed to sight it in. I set up a 23yard range out back set up a target & began the process,(I use CPs)first shot I aimed for the bullseye & it hit about eleven o'clock four inches off center,I took the same shot & aimed at the same bullseye & got the same result,now after two shots in almost the same spot I figured it's o.k. to start the adjustment, third shot was about inch off to the right of the bullseye & almost even up on the vertical,another slight adjustment & I was in my circle,I took a few more shots to get it just right & I was off to the races.I was liking what I was seeing as well as liking what I was feeling which was how well this gun shot out of the box,I thought not bad for a gun made in Spain,the funny thing was when Tanya asks me how the trigger felt,I thought she was mocking me at first but she wanted to know because her Hamerli has such a horrible trigger,she takes The Fusion & starts shooting,now I was really impressed,she did a real nice job & then looks at me & says,wow this is a easy trigger use,I just started laughing,what-else could I do... :p After shooting for a while I knew that gun was for real,all I needed to know was what kind of numbers it was putting out,I figured in the upper 700fps to low 800fps. well today at Jeffs we put a CP in the gun & shot it over the chrony & when I saw 750fps I was happy,the next shot was 748.9 fps,me & Jeff looked at each other,smiled,then went & did our farm run! Overall impression of the gun is super nice! :)

My take was about the same Joe Joe. The trigger is perfect and the overall cocking and shooting cycle was just fantastic. Thanks buddy. I want a .177 next..:)

Gene Gene, I really think you should go to A.A.!!!! :p

Like I posted last time..........you guys are keeping this all a secret. Most of us know nothing about these guns, so why don't one of you tell us all about them. you know the drill. Where do we get them and how about a review of them. Who ever is importing them will not make any money if these guns are a close kept secret.....SO SPILL THE BEANS GUYS!!!!!!!!!!

This is the first time a cometa gun has been in the US since RWS and Pyramyd Air stopped importing them. The guns you see are new models this year. You can check out the guns at their website http://www.cometaairgun.com/. The guy who started this thread is the one importing these guns. Right now there are only 3 of them in the field. Airgun Cuz has one Jorge from the Bronx has one and Mr. Gene has the third. I hope to be the fourth today. Contact airguncuz @ http://www.longislandairguns.com or longislandairguns@yahoo.com and let him know what gun you want and in what cal. Cuz will be placing another order soon we need to work out some other details first before placing the next order.

Is the black stock actually a synthethic or just painted beech?
Looks great!!
-
It's a wood stock!
-
Went to the Cometa site link. No info or pics for the model you show. Any other options?
Thanks
-
I was wondering when you Cometa guy's were gonna pop back up with some info. :) joe quit showing that black beauty, it's killing me lol. Ed
-
It appears that this gun is to be sold to only a given few. The only pic of it is on this site.
Long island airguns keeps talking about them; BUT that is all.......
Are they for sell or just to look and talk about?
When will they be available for the general public?
Not mad... Just wondering.
By the way, what is the cost?
-
Hi Joe Joe, we are having allot of responses to your Cometa air rifles. Could you make an effort to answer some of the posts in more detail. Along with availability and cost.
Thanks

Doc, I read your post a week ago and did not reply thinking Joe Joe would. I have already done a tune on my Fusion .22 and it came our great. Even before the tune the Fusion shot fantastic out of the box. Great trigger and very smooth cocking and shooting cycle. Just a small amount of spring noise which is allot less than some other springers I have bought new. I am really waiting for Joe Joe to come up with some information about availability and pricing before I go into details on my take of the Cometa Fusion. Just sticking my neck out a bit here but I would think he would be selling them like popcorn at the movies by now.
Hope Joe Joe can get us all up to date on pricing and availability. It has been long enough now.
-
There are a few more available! I keep getting emails & phone calls regarding the Fusion & Fenix & I answer every question that is asked & three or four days later the same people call & ask me the same question & guess what,,,,I give them the same info! I am really not sure what answers everyone wants,all I can do is give you the same info that I have! Those that have asked about pricing,have gotten them, if there are any others that want to know pricing,feel free to contact me! There has been a situation created by one of our members that caused a problem with Cometa, I'm not gonna get into details about what or who created this mess but I am in contact with Cometa to clear it up! Like I said there are a few rifles still available!
-
Thanks for your reply gene. Sounds like I might have to have one of these rifles to add to the herd!
-
Joe since you have a link on your web site why don't you just post the prices like other retailers do. That seems quite simple and would answer some of there questions.
Or at least post them for sale in the classifieds here so people that are interested can buy them or pass on them.
-
I just look at em with dreamy eye's hehe, it's all I can do. :) Ed
-
Welps, as a newcomer here, not knowledgeable, and NOT an expert on air guns, I hesitate to even comment. But Joe obviously has a problem he is working.
Lets let him work it.
Plus there is one thing for sure, I would NOT be one to spend my $$ until I saw a review and comments on the thing by one of you guys who are the true experts here. But the thing sure does have plenty of *_*_*_*_*_* appeal!!!! Can't wait to read some of the reviews.

Joe did email me pricing on request in June. Unfortunately, the Fusion Stars were all gone bythe time I even knew they were here(sniff). The indication was that more might be coming later. I amstanding by.
I did contact Cometa for my own springs back in January or so- I got springs for a couple of folks here, and my own stash- I sure hope this wasn't part of the grief! If so, let me know and I will straighten out whatever issue that could have been! They seemed like pretty nice folks over there and I doubt if my $50 order affected any big deals (that was before Joe was openly involved with them).
Meantime, I think theCometa line could be a real brand, here. Right now, they are kind of a stealth product for insiders here on the GTA. Anyone who didn't catch the initial rush wouldn't know much about them and that's probably what some of the inquiries are about. The guys thinking it over really have no place to read up, drool in the store window, and don't see it reinforced much elsewhere in the market.
I am a #1 Cometa fan and hope to see them and Joe do well! Whenyou see a product this great, that is relatively unknown, it spells opportunity. I don't know if the goal is to build an online airgun storefront, but I agree with Gene that these could be moving very briskly with a little PR. Hope the smoke clears soon and some more roll in. Let me know if I can help in any way.

And I thank you for the spring Dave.. I may have forgot. I used it in a B-20 and it worked very well thankyou...:)

i jorge lopez made a wrong choice and mess up the deal for joe/cuz .i dont want anybody blaming themselves for something i did which was not done to harm or hurt anyones buissness here so no more info needs to be addressed in this forum about personal that had to do with me and joe so the pot wont get stirred up .it was my fault so i do aplogize to anyone who had any interest with these rifles cause they r great and joe does the right thing for anyone .jorge
