Too bad it actually works.
Maybe most of the time. I had a Chinese Crossman NP replaced twice before a tin of pellets had been put through it. The second replacement still sits unopened in the box, nephew lost interest.
Was referring to the marketing scheme working, not the guns.......that said for the guy that shoots a dozen shots per year, they are probably fine. If you put a couple thousand pellets a year through one then you should probably look elsewhere (like Beeman R-Series Rifles)
