Dose anybody know of company that makes a semi-auto BB gun ?

My Wife wants a quicker shooting BB gun than her lever action Daisy, so she can get off a faster second shot.

She's 70 years old and working the lever takes all of the strength she has, and is slow.

She's trying to keep "pests" out of her flower beds.

Thanks! Virgil B.

Go to Pyramid Air. They sell everything you can imagine. Including full auto guns that work well.

If you don't go for a PCP type, stick with Co2. Its quieter, and works well.

JD45;

I found a ideal air rifle at Pyramid Air!

It's the Crosman 1077. A CO2 powered 12 shot semi-auto.

For under $100. it should be GREAT for "Grannie" to keep pests out of her flower beds!

Now to see IF I can find one locally.....

Thanks Again! Virgil B.

I found the Crosman 1077 locally!

It was more money than Pyramid Air, but was able to to try it out yesterday!

It works GREAT for keeping "flower eaters" out of the flower beds!

Thanks again for the help!

One more question?

How long will a CO2 cylinder hold it's pressure after putting it in the gun?

Will it "leak down" after a few days, or last several weeks?

This rifle won't be shot everyday, but want to keep it "ready to go" for pests in my Wife's flower beds.

Am thinking since this a new gun, the seals should hold pressure pretty well.

Thanks!

-I guess it depends on the gun, but I leave mine in with no problem. Don't store in a 100 degree shop. Your house is the best place. One drop of synthetic oil on the cartridge tip helps.

My QB78 has been charged by the back door for 5-6 months.

That's great to know!

Thanks again for the tips!

Since I'm new at this CO2 stuff, I need a little guidance.

This is a really FUN little rifle! (pests don't like it!)
