beeman P17

[mudduck48]

OK, You want match grade accuracy? Buy this $40 gun. This is the best deal I could find on a P17. There are a few guns that are better than this one, but they cost a lot more. Wyoman, here is the deal and it is shipped out of Carls back yard in TN. I just bought another one.$39.59 shipped to your door. They list for more than that.

I went to yahoo search and put in Beeman P17, then I just looked and looked and went to one sight that had a good deal then it sent me to Amazon and on there is said there were more deals. looked and there it was $32.51 + $7.08 shipping. I added that up and went HUH? This is less than anyone else. Sat on it all day and went WHAT THE DUCK? I bought one. This is the long killer deal for a gun that will shoot with the big boys. When you buy one let me know and I will show the link to what you have to do to it so it will last and last. I have almost 500 shots through mine and no problems.

500 shots Ducky 

Probably going on 13 or 1400 on this one. Love this gun 
Sweet adjustable trigger, nice fit in the hand, light, and a full length barrel rail... can't beat that. Am putting stuff on and off it all the time.

You are welcome, you won't regret it. Now, watch this vid and listen to what he is saying about this gun. Basically what you have to do is, pull out the piston and clean it. Then use some fine sandpaper or scotch bright  to smooth out the inside of the pump tube. Relube with some white lith greese, pellgun oil the small o-ring and shoot it. I have a 3/16" wood dowel kind of sharpened on one end kinda rounded off I use to push the pellet into the chamber of the barrel so it won't damage the o-ring when you close it up.

Well with all the other stuff I just don't shoot it as much as I would like. And I just shoot in my garage. If I had the great outdoors like some people do, I would shoot it more. I know it would take small pest and birds no problem. I put it on the chrony and got constant 400fps out of it. It says on the package 410fps and it will do that.

OOPS!! I just noticed that I put this thread in the wrong place, I was going to put it in "General airguning" not in the for sale thread. OPPS!!

Good thing you said something now Rich can relax when he moves it

It's cool to see you so excited about this gun!! You know I am, Jerry is,  Brian too... and quite a few other guys. Neat that you found a sweet deal... and let everyone know!!

Heck... was tired and wasn't going to shoot tonight, but now you got me wanting to shoot the P17
Going to go shoot it a little, then go to bed

Here's mine with the Daisy red dot on it. Last week had the NcStar scope on it.

Looking good. Looks like you can still easily close it with the red dot on it. What pellets does it like?

I got a Marksman 2004 (same as a P17 just before it was branded as a Beeman) and a 1377 for $40 used , I'm a big fan of the 2004/P17, I haven't touched it and it shoots great

Pretty much everything I have. I actually haven't found one yet, that it does not like.
I mainly shoot the Daisy 7.8g wad cutters through it, as I put allot of pellets through it in a sitting. Last night I probably shot about 75 or so, in a little less than an hour. Have tried RWS Hobby, Diabolo Basic, Meisterkugein 8.2g, Crosman Premier Super Match, and Destroyer EX.

That Daisy red dot is also a great value. $10...  and it is actually pretty nice. Very light, no parallax (really), a pretty decent dot, 2 brightness settings, and easy to get on and off quick. It is about a 7 MOA dot I would say. It is my second... the first was actually messed up from the git, the dot was not centered. Took it right back (Tractor Supply), and got this one... and everything is fine. Put 1 wrap of teflon plumbers tape on the windage adjustment bolt, so it would stiffen up the tolerances a little there (just a very slight movement side to side, if you grabbed it and moved it... not so much shooting it). Easy to do... take the nut off, bolt out and wrap it, and put it back in.

Which ones does yours like Duck?

Which ones does yours like Duck?

I have been using some older Crosman FP pellets I bought off ebay. I'm cheep, I always look for a bargain, like .01 cent per pellet. If you have any ebay bucks to use, you can get them cheeper. Here they is.
