Co2 Guns by Gamo

About Gamo CO2 Pistols: Gamo CO2 pistols are compressed air weapons designed for recreational shooting and training. They use 12 gram CO2 cartridges to propel the pellets. These guns are known for their accuracy, quality and realism.
Manufacturing: Gamo CO2 pistols are manufactured in Spain, in the Gamo production plant located in Sant Boi de Llobregat. Gamo is a brand recognized for its long history and experience in the manufacture of compressed air weapons.
Weapons Category: In Spain, CO2 pistols are classified as 4th category weapons according to the Weapons Regulations. This means that they do not require a weapons license to possess.
Minimum Age for Use: The minimum legal age to use compressed air guns in Spain is 14 years, always under the supervision of an adult. For purchase and possession, the minimum age is 18 years.

Power: Most Gamo CO2 pistols have a power rating of less than 7.5 joules, making them suitable and safe for recreational shooting. This power is enough for accurate shooting at short and medium distances.
Average Muzzle Velocity: The average muzzle velocity of the pellet in these guns is usually in the range of 120 to 150 m/s (meters per second), depending on the model and weight of the pellet used.
Marking with the "F": Yes, many Gamo CO2 pistols are marked with the "F" inside a pentagon, indicating that their power is less than 7.5 joules, thus complying with European regulations that allow their use without need license in several countries.

Replicas: Many Gamo CO2 pistols are designed as replicas of real firearms, offering realism in appearance and handling. This makes them ideal for collectors and for training in weapons handling.
Blowback: Some Gamo CO2 pistols have the blowback function, which simulates the recoil of the shot, providing a more realistic shooting experience. Models like the Gamo PT-85 Blowback incorporate this feature.
CO2 consumption: The blowback function tends to increase CO2 consumption, since part of the gas is used to move the slide and simulate recoil. This can reduce the total number of shots per CO2 cartridge compared to non-blowback pistols.

Shot Capacity: A 12 gram CO2 cartridge can provide between 50 and 80 shots, depending on the gun model and conditions of use. This amount may vary slightly depending on temperature and shooting speed.
Full Metal: Some Gamo CO2 guns are built with a full metal body, which increases their durability and gives a more realistic and robust feel to the user. Models like the Gamo P-25 and Gamo PT-85 offer options in both metal and polymer versions, depending on the user's preferences.
Dual and Solo BB Models: Some Gamo CO2 pistols are dual, meaning they can fire both lead pellets and steel BBs. Models such as the Gamo C-15 are examples of dual pistols. Other pistols are designed exclusively to fire steel BBs, providing high magazine capacity and ease of use.
Maintenance and Use Recommendations: To keep your gun in optimal condition, it is important to regularly clean and lubricate the moving parts. Use high quality pellets recommended by Gamo to ensure proper operation and prevent damage to the barrel. Avoid misuse, such as shooting without pellets or subjecting the gun to knocks and drops. It is crucial not to forget to put the CO2 bottle back in after use, as this can damage the valve seals and make the gun void of warranty.
