Jun 8, 2005 · Yes. there should be adjustment screws on your gun. Near the trigger. The sears will adjust how much you have to pull the trigger before it sets off. I'll go look for a diagram on that gun and get back to you. But yes, shorter (lighter) trigger pull is possible, i'm thinking. It looks like there is a two stage sear, but they work together as one.

Dec 28, 2005 · A .177 will get the job done and a basic b19 based gun like the Crosman optimus is not too bad. The triggers on these budget guns suck and they may not be particularly smooth, but they can keep inside 1/2" at backyard distances if you've got a good pellet that the gun likes and are proficient at using the artillery hold.

Mar 22, 2006 · If you check around some of the air gun hunting forums some of the guys use guns with as little as 7 ft-lbs (7.9 grain pellet at about 630 fps), and successfully take squirrel out past 20 yards.

Jul 5, 2011 · The gun starts to recoil before the pellet leaves the barrel so you have to hold the rifle still longer than a firearm to be accurate. Also, a springer has recoil both backwards and forwards so you if you get a scope you need one made for a springer because it will trash a firearm scope that is only designed for backward recoil.
