  1. Try looking at

    pyramidair.com

    airgundepot.com

    airgunwarehouse.com

    Just look under the "Pistol" or "hangun" categories and find one you like!!!!


  2. benjamin .22 calb. with pointed field points.

  3. If you can afford a little more then $100 then this is the best gun you can get:

    But inside of you'r price range you should getone of these:

  4. >>Best air pistol for pigeon - $60-$100<<

    The Crosman 1377C - $55 - 600fps

    http://www.pyramydair.com/p/crosman-1377...

    The Crosman 1377 is a very nice pistol for the $$

    Later: <Added> The Benjamin EB22, HB17 & HB22 are all nice pistols, they are also over your $100 limit or I would have included them. And while they cost over twice as much as the Crosman 1377 the Benjamin HB(pump) pistols are less powerful. The EB22 is around $113 it's a .22 cal CO2 pistol(500fps). I don't care too much for CO2 airguns but, if I were to get one, the EB22 would be my choice of CO2 pistols.

    "Joe A" had the right idea, I should have included the Benjamin pistols so that you could take a look. I don't know who gave him the TD, but he got a TU from me.

    There are a lot of really nice air pistols if money is no object :))

    RWS 5P(550fps)

    RWS 5G(700fps)

    Webley & Scott - Hurricane

    Webley & Scott - Tempest

    Beeman/Weihrauch P1(600fps) > my fav

    Evanix Hunting Master AR6 - 1,000fps .22  

    >>Beware<< IMO, there are no "BB" pistols, accurate enough or powerful enough to be considered an effective hunter. The above pistols I listed are all pellet pistols - BB pistols that also shoot pellets will have their fps listed, when they are shooting BBs. When they shoot average weight pellets their fps will be much lower. Under-powered guns lead to wounded animals/birds

    "Michael" gave you 3 or the best airgun sites, I'm going to add one to his list.

    Later: <added> These are the "Bare Minimum" fpe required "At Impact" according to professional airgunners

    Sparrow, Mouse - 2.0fpe

    Squirrel, Starling, Pigeon - 3.0fpe

    Rat, Rabbit - 5.0fpe

    All of these consider a perfect shot in the kill area(head) >IMO all of those fpe numbers are low*<

    BB pistol - 5.1gr BB

    480fps - Muzzle energy = 2.61fpe

    480fps BB pistol at 15 feet = 2.27fpe

    480fps BB pistol at 30 feet = 1.98fp

    A 480fps BB pistol does not have enough fpe at the muzzle to kill a pigeon.

    Pellet pistol - 6.9gr pellet

    600fps - Muzzle energy = 5.52fpe

    600fps pellet pistol = 30 feet = 4.61fpe

    600fps pellet pistol = 75 feet = 3.53fpe

    The pellet pistol delivers more fpe at 25 yards than the BB pistol has at the muzzle.
