You can check the classifieds gate,, or you can simply order a new one then order a trigger from Bob.....   Easy as that  :)

Nope....   the trigger comes with very easy to follow installation instructions and the whole job takes about 15 minutes.  Easy as pie....  If you go to Bobs website (you can find it in the "mall") I believe you can look at the installation instructions before you even buy it.   It really is  easy to install.

As for the best price on a CFX,,,,,, check out Midsouth,  pyramydair,, or some of the other online dealers.

And remember that if you want a CFX in .22 cal...the only place that I know of to get one in the US thats new, is Pyramyd. It comes with a scope, a 4x32

And of course as everyone said...the GRT-III trigger comes from Bob, and man is it ever sweet. I have three. Gamo Shadow .177, Gamo CFX .22, and Game Shadow Express .22. Lightest trigger pull I have ever felt!!!

Do the .22 cal's shoot significantly slower/less penetration/distance then the .177? Does it make up for it in impact or could a .177 hollow point substitute the .22 and retain its stopping power?

My opinion on your question is that with the right pellet, like for example a Predator in .22 has significantly more penetration power than a .177 Predator would have at any distance. Thats one of the reasons why I like .22s...because of their knockdown/penetration power. Now...everybody has opinions about everything...but hey...why not buy 2 CFXs one in .22 and the other in .177. Then you can run your own experiments and report your results back to us. I would find your results most interesting.

Additionally, It is not an opinion which I seek.

I'm looking for the actual facts here..

So basically a .22 predator has more penetration then a .177 from upclose or at 40 yards as well?

It would be best then if I only answer your questions with what I know as fact. I'm thinking that you'll be hearing much less from me....LOL

Gregg....Whoops...I'm kindof an offthewall sense of humor guy and didnt mean to offend in any way. If I have caused any scratching of your head I apologize (thats how I went bald I think). I guess what I should have said was a lot of what I know is based on my own observations, reading articles, and hangin around reading in this place. So if its facts you are after then I will be less talkative in the future, when you are looking for facts. If you are asking for an opinion then I'll gladly reply.



Once again, I did not mean to offend, and please continue to ask and participate here. We like to say that we are all one big happy family here and you are welcome here. Lot of joking going on here on the GTA forums...sometimes folks that come from other forums where things didnt go right for them...and then theycome here and find lots of folks having fun, and learning too, little bit of banter...so pull up a chair and some fun ok? Sometimes its kinda weird getting used to I think. I know it was for me, becuase where I hung out before everybody was so serious and...mean...just downright nasty to me. Now I feel like I am accepted as just one of them airgunners!!! That feels good for me!!!



Have you been asking questions in other forums or did you start here? If this is your first...we like to say simply...Welcome to the GTA!!! Its a great place to be!!!
