Frequently asked questions

What is a gas piston rifle and how is it different from a spring rifle?

A gas piston rifle is a type of air rifle that uses a gas-driven piston instead of the traditional spring. This system, known by different names depending on the brand (such as Gamo IGT, Norica GRS, Cometa GP, Hatsan Vortex, and Crosman Nitro Piston), offers a number of advantages over the spring, including smoother and vibration-free firing, greater durability , and less maintenance.

What advantages does a gas piston rifle have over a spring rifle?

Gas piston rifles offer several advantages:

More consistent shot: The gas piston provides a drier and more consistent shot, which improves accuracy.
Less vibrations: Unlike springs, the gas piston generates less vibrations during shooting, which translates into less movement of the barrel and, therefore, greater precision.
Durability: The gas piston has a longer useful life than the springs, since it does not wear out or lose power over time.
Less maintenance: There is no need to replace the spring or make frequent adjustments, reducing overall maintenance.

How do you choose between a gas piston rifle and a spring rifle?

The choice between a gas piston rifle and a spring rifle depends on your needs:

If you are looking for precision and consistency: The gas piston is the best option due to its uniform and vibration-free firing.
If you prefer a cheaper and more traditional option: Spring rifles may be more suitable, especially if you prefer the more classic shooting feel.
For intensive use: The gas piston is ideal for shooters who plan to use the rifle frequently, as it requires less maintenance and has greater durability.

What brands offer gas piston rifles and what are their notable features?

Several well-known brands offer gas piston rifles, each with its own characteristics:

Gamo IGT (Inert Gas Technology): Known for its precision and recoil reduction.
Norica GRS (Gas Ram System): Offers a smooth and consistent shot, with less vibrations.
Comet GP (Gas Piston): Recognized for its high manufacturing quality and precise shooting.
Hatsan Vortex: Stands out for its power and reliability, especially in high-power models.
Crosman Nitro Piston: Valued for its durability and shorter recovery time between shots.
Each of these brands offers options adapted to different types of users, from recreational shooters to those looking for maximum precision in each shot.

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.
