Big Cat Stock

Do all Gamos have a short length of pull like the Big Cat? It seems to be made for a youth rather than an adult.

I had two Gamo big cat's that seemed like they had long pulls....The reason for two you ask?  Both of the barrels warped after maybe 1000 shots or so, one to the right, one to the left...I dunno if the big cat has a different type of barrel material or what, but I had to return them and get a shadow...so far so good...bad trigger though...thinking about the GRT-lll...Man I'm starting to sound obsessed...this is addictive..!!

I am not referring to the trigger pull. I am talking about the distance from the trigger to the butt of the stock.

I have a CFX and while I haven't measured it, it is not short. I am 5'11'' and I wouldn't want it any shorte.  I did try  out a Big Cat and it seems that the CFX is longer by comparrison.

I don't notice that the LOP on my Big Cat seems short. I measured both my Big Cat and my CFX, both 14" right on the money. The Big Cat seems like a well balanced rifle to me, and due to its light weight handles like a carbine, makes me smile.  :)
