What's your preference? CO2, pump...

I suppose it might be the simplicity of my choices that has me attached to them - gun & pellets.  Springers, then pumpers for me.  Although I do own CO2 pistols and rifles, I don't enjoy shooting them as much. ??? RC

Depends on what I am shooting.  co2 for plinking, pumpers for pesting/plinking/modding, springers for plinking and pesting, pcp for all the above then some.

Pumpers for hunting.

Pumpers for plinking.

Pumpers for target shooting.

Pumpers for playing.

Pumpers for easy maintenance.

Pumpers for easy modification to my wants.

don't have a Co2 , just a pumper . i can shoot it year round for only the cost of pellets .
but i want to get the Co2 power plant parts for it this spring to give Co2 a try while the weather is warm .
FWIU Co2 is much louder so i plan to get a LDC first to be on the safe side .

In a rifle, I like a springer.  In a pistol, CO2.  I do have a pumper, (2289)  but I end up shooting a lot more if I dont have to pump.
A couple co2 cartridges in my pocket provide a bunch of shooting.

Have a couple springers that I hardly ever use... a couple pumpers that I used to use a lot...not so much anymore. Did really like them for a time...tin of pellets and good to go has its advantages.

Guess it's pcp and a bit of co2 thrown in on warm days. A pocket full of cartridges is still pretty practical when wandering the fields in the summer, the pcp's never stray too far from the N2 tank...good to have a truck. ;)

If it's not broken then modify it!

I enjoyed modifying the pumpers, but eventually got rid of all of them because they are too much trouble for me to pump them up.  Even when I was young and strong I did not like to pump them. CO2 & PCP for me.  :)
