I've had one for 14 years, and still shooting strong, I've shot more than 5000 pellets with it, I had to replace the valve under warranty, but after that no maintenance needed other than keep it clean and seals with silicone oil. Especially the barrel to valve seal. Make sure the pellets are all the way in before closing. The only bad thing about it is the side to side play on the upper half when you close. it does not stay in the exact same place every time. I just make sure to push it to one side after I close. it's super accurate up to 10m, and with the right pellets, can still knock down small metal targets at 15-20m. Great gun. I'm replacing it with a Gamo PR-776 CO2 revolver. I just hope it is as good quality gun as the PR-45. Let's see if it is when it does arrive.
Thank you. Good straightforward review. One little thing you missed - on mine, anyway. On the rear sight is a third screw, to the left, smaller than the windage adjustment screw on the right. This one adjusts the width of the space, the gap through which the front sight is seen. Clockwise to make the gap wider. And I'm glad to see you repeated the warning about keeping fingers out of the way when closing the barrel down - the first time I handled one, in the shop, it gave me a blood blister on a finger. Those edges are really sharp! Otherwise than that, it's as you say, a good pistol with a useful amount of energy, 2.8 ft/lbs officially, I think.
The Gamo Centre target pistol is based on the same action I think? There is a ribbing set the length of the the top to stop glare. Nice review, thank you 👍
Open top slowly to ensure a consistent intake of air? Nonsense! Also, the fact that you can cock the trigger without fully compressing air is just a consequence of this design; not a built-in function to allow dry firing. Where is the proper accuracy test? The chrony measurement, price, etc? No mention of how fiddly they are to load or how numb the plastic trigger is. This is more like an advert than a review.

Marks frustration on his second shot. I’d be the same. Keep them coming GMTV 👍🏻

Thanks Marc for the review 😎👍🏻
Great Video💯, Thank you 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Very Similar to the Nemesis
Is it a 177 caliber and is velocity round 400 feet per second?
Sorry if I missed it - ftlbs energy?
2.2 ft/lbs, usually keep that info in the description.
No working in winter

Looks like Beeman P17…
I would not buy it.
