Bootymonster....Wait no more!

The link you provided now has Part 2 (testing pellet velocity) and Part 3 (accuracy tests) in the sidebar on the right.

Here is a link to the accuracy write-up if you want to jump directly to it.

Let me say that this is a fairly nice looking gun and I really like the sling attachment at the front of the gun.  More companies should offer something like that in their break barrel guns.

However, that was probably the first review by a retailer that I've read that didn't glow over the product and tell a certain set of people that this gun was perfect for them.  On the other hand they don't really offer any criticism of a product that is obviously proving less than satisfactory, unless 1.25" groups at 30 yards with a scope is satisfactory.  Usually you get what you pay for but in this case you could have an RWS/Diana model 34 for the same price...
