That's interesting......  I didn't see that last time I was perusing P.A.  

I have a GAMO Black Shadow Supreme in .22 cal that I bought new a few years ago right after they stopped making them and I have to say it is a really nice shooting rifle with plenty of power and great accuracy.  I hadn't shot the rifle for over a year so yesterday I took it out of the safe and spent some time shooting targets to check  the scope.  She shot dime sized groups at 30 yards just like she always did.  Matter of fact it's the only one of my GAMO rifles that still has the stock trigger because for some reason the trigger is really nice, unlike all my other GAMO triggers which were replaced with the GRT.   That rifle used to be my favorite squirrel gun, but then my collection got larger and somehow she got buried in the back of the gun safe  :(  She loves RWS SHP's and harvested quite a few squirrels and rabbits for me when I first got her  :)

Anyway, I wasn't aware they were offering the BC in .22 now.....

Must be fairly new, I've been looking for this exact gun. I have a tuned .177 and that thing is a tack driver. I don't get the speed they claim but who does? The .22 is claiming 950fps, I wonder what the real world FPS will be. Somebody buy one quick and tell us all about it.

Pyramid Air emailed back and said they have plastic triggers on these.
