First up is the Crosman Bolt Action CO2-Powered Pistol, a .22 caliber single shot bolt action air gun that shoots up to 460 FPS. Easy to use and weighing in at only 29 oz. but still capable enough to take down small pests. There are plenty of aftermarket parts to customize the gun to the users liking, so it makes a wonderful shooter for the hobbyist as well. It is advertised to go 30 shots without going too far off and losing the power from the clip, but some have reported that it goes as high as 35, so good bang for the buck. Keep in mind that since this is a C02 powered air gun, there is the added expense of the cartridges, but in reality the cartridges are no more expensive than a box of generic .177 caliber pellets. The sights on the gun can be manually adjusted with a small tool, and with the aforementioned modding, a scope can be added. The Crosman Bolt Action CO2-Powered Pistol is a fine air gun from a respectable company. With easy to use mods and plenty of parts, it is very accessible to all shooters of all experience types. Crosman strikes again on the list with the American Classic Pump, a .177 caliber pump action that shoots up to 600 FPS. Being sold as an easy pump forearm, per the air gun design that holds true and the single-action bolt design adds to the air guns overall luster. Although just a .177 caliber, the Crosman American Classic does good work for pest control as well as target shooting. While the first air gun on the list uses the more advanced cartridge technology, this particular Crosman relies on elbow grease. Between 3-10 pumps decides the minimum and maximum amount of power to use when firing off a pellet. Users are also not burdened with a limited amount of shots per cartridge, and the purchase of such cartridges. As far as the downsides, there have been numerous complaints about the sights being below par, even with adding better sights since the barrel twists and can throw the accuracy off somewhat. This air gun also has a slightly longer barrel than most of its types, and helps in the long run with overall accuracy, and even with a mini project a hobbyist wants to turn it into a mini air rifle. Even with the mentioned flaws, the Crosman American Classic Pump Air Pistol can reach the status of more expensive air guns within its range by simply adding modifications, an option that Crosman seems to openly support with its product. .177 calibers still can get the job done, as this Daisy is a CO2 powered semi-automatic with a built in 21 shot BB magazine. The Daisy 985415-442 Hunting Air Pistol is unique in that it comes with an entire kit containing shooting glasses, targets, 350 ct. BB tube and three CO2 cylinders. Pretty much everything a beginner needs to get started with shooting is available right out of the box, making this a very attractive package. The unexpected 500 FPS is just the beginning of the story, as the looks show a design that can easily be mistaken for a real handgun. Another good feature is the red indicator that lets the user know the safety is off, and it fires off a cool 80-100 shots before losing too much power. There are fittings for other accessories such as lasers and flashlight devices, if needed. There isn’t an air gun on the list that beats the value that the Daisy 985415-442 Hunting Air Pistol provides in one complete package for its retails price. Whether using it for pest control or even target control, this air gun is the best bang for the buck when comparing features and overall value. Other than having the coolest name on this list of air guns, the Colt Defender Pistol is a very capable CO2 powered air gun with a built in 16 shot BB magazine. Although not as robust as the Daisy in features, the fixed front and rear sights are a welcome addition. A spring powered grip release also gives the shooter comfort in overall quality, both short term and long. Although only 1.6 lbs., it shoots a solid 450 FPS and strongly resembles a Colt firearm. A good 80-100 shots can be expected before losing too much power, so pretty much standard wear. The usual pains of CO2 cartridges leaking are here with this version, as well as any CO2 powered air gun that is not properly cared for. One of the few downsides to the air gun is the loading mechanism, which can be a bit difficult at first until used a couple of times. There are a lot less features in the Colt Defender Pistol than other air guns, and it doesn’t shoot any better or any worse than any of the list. With the loading mechanism being the pain that it is, it is still a quality buy solely for the high grade plastic materials that they use to construct it. The modern looking Gamo P-25 Blowback Pellet Pistol won’t win any design awards from the old school, but this .177 caliber brings it’s a game with a Semi-Automatic Blowback action in a metal frame. It also remains as one of the more comfortable air guns on the list, not only for the weight, but also the textured grip. The quality of this air gun
