cheapest Discovery w/ pump?--FOUND ONE
« on: October 05, 2009, 06:07:03 AM »
so where is the cheapest place to get a discovery with pump at now?
Sunshine Airguns has them for $299.
Does anybody know if he'll be going back down to $249 or $269???
Thanks Ray

I got one today for $299 from SunShine Airguns.
He used to have them at $269 but went up. I got me one before they went up again.
Great price for Rifle and Pump together.
Thanks Ray

Ray,

I got mine from Sunshine Airguns right before the price went up.  Even at $299 for the pump and gun it's a great price for an alsome little gun. Your going to love it. Easy to pump and makes one ragged hole with five shots from 15 to 20 yards using CPD heavies. I put on a Bushnell Sportsman 4-12X40 AO scope from Walmart and used Leapers two piece medium mounts. It is a little loud but that can easily be fixed.

Charlie,

Not to sound "wanting" or anything like that, but I hope it has a nice looking stock on it.
There's just something about a nice piece of walnut against blued steel!!!!!

You'd have a better chance of a nice "walnut" stock if you had ordered a rifle with a "walnut" stock . IIRC the Disco and Marauder have stock made of Sycamore or something like that . Nothing wrong with Sycamore , it's just not " walnut". Just giving you a hard time Ray . LOL I Know you'll enjoy your Disco. kirby

The wood on mine didn't look all that good out of the box. It was very dry looking and a little rough feeling. I rubbed in a couple coats of some old Scotts Liquid Gold I had in the back of the closet and it really brought out the grain in the wood. It's still a little rough though but it looks good.

Sycamore or not, I still hope mine looks nice.
I can hardly wait.
I ordered it Tuesday, wonder how long it will take to get to me?

The stock is most likely Beech.   Enjoy your new Discovery.

My disco arived with a broken stock.Contacted the seller,the shipper,and ups and got the run around.I was informed that ups may take up to three weeks to pick it up.The shipper said they had to get it back and the seller would have to then issue a new purchase order after they credeted his account.What a crock.I caught the ups guy today and ask him if he had a pick up order and he said not yet.Its been over a week.P O so I called crosman and the service department said they were sorry about the problem and they were shipping me a new stock.Way to go crosman.
