I got an email AD from Pyramid Air about how great there GAS - SPRING Guns are.
Are these GAS-SPRINGS really better than a Coil sping...?


Heres what they claim;

8 reasons to buy a gas-spring gun:  
           1. Smoother cocking
           2. Smoother shooting
           3. Less recoil
           4. No spring torque
           5. No spring fatigue (even if cocked for hours!)
           6. Functions perfectly in all weather
           7. Lasts longer than a metal spring
           8. Comes installed

Is any of this true, My only concerns would be the ability to cock the gun easier and the ability to leave the gun cocked with no spring fatigue for hours.
Also, are gas-springs only for rifles, No hand guns?

Not sure the model, but I've heard that some are actually harder (force) to cock but definately much smoooother..  And less torquing recoil - just back and forward.
