Frequently asked questions

What are the best brands of CO2 guns available in the store and what is the blowback in these guns?

In our store, you will find the best brands of CO2 pistols, including Gamo, Umarex (with official replicas of Beretta, Walther, Glock, among others), SigSauer, Norica and Crosman. These brands are recognized for the quality and reliability of their products. Blowback is a mechanism in CO2 pistols that simulates the recoil of a real firearm, providing a more realistic shooting experience. Examples of blowback pistols include Gamo's Pt-85 Blowback and the Glock 17. This mechanism not only adds realism, but can also influence the price and gas consumption of the pistol.

CO2 guns can use two types of ammunition: lead pellets (preferably cup) and steel balls. Some guns are dual and allow you to fire both types of ammunition. Lead pellet guns tend to be more expensive due to their rifled barrel, which provides greater accuracy. Additionally, lead pellets are generally more expensive than steel balls. Steel pellet guns, with smooth barrels, are cheaper and are designed for a greater magazine capacity, making them ideal for entertainment.

Gamo's Pt-85 Blowback: With a firing speed of 138 m/sec with lead pellets.
Beretta 92 Elite II manufactured by Umarex: With a speed of 150 m/sec with steel balls.
Glock 17: Faithful replica with a speed of 130 m/sec.
SigSauer P226: With a speed of 140 m/sec, known for its precision and power.
Crosman Vigilante: With a speed of 135 m/sec and the ability to shoot both lead pellets and steel balls.
You can compare the rate of fire and the type of ammunition (lead or steel balls) between the different guns in our store.

The "F" marking inside a pentagon on CO2 pistols indicates that the weapon complies with German firearms regulations. This symbol ensures that the pistol has a firing energy of less than 7.5 joules, which is the legal limit to be considered a sporting weapon and not a firearm in Germany. This marking is considered a standard for all countries that require powers lower than 7.5 joules. This is important for the legality and safe use of the weapon in different countries.

CO2 Pistols: Lightness and fun for shooters

CO2 pistols are ideal for quickly and accurately shooting both lead pellets and steel BBs.

Very happy with the delivery, it was faster than I had been told It arrived in perfect condition, an essential tool for reloaders

The first online purchase I made at this gun shop is worthy of framing with an unbeatable impression. I ordered several models of pellets… and the truth is that they arrived like a bullet. They didn't even take 18 hours! I received the order in perfect packaging, which made it easier to preserve during transport. A single box of pellets arrived with them quite dirty, as if there was little turnover of that item, but nothing out of the ordinary and that can't be solved by cleaning them before firing them. In short, excellent service and good product. They have gained a repeat customer.
