These rifles come from the Cummins tool sale. They are sold for about $20, and are made in China. They work for a plinker, but for accuracy and anything quality they lack it. Here is the link to the ones they are selling now. Don't pay $60 for it, you can buy three of them for that price.

Pan man,

For and extra $20.00 you can get a Tech Force M97 that is ten times the rifle that the Cummins is. Go to
http://www.compasseco.com/shop/products.html?maingroup=Tech%20Force%20Air%20Guns&secondgroup=Air%20Rifles and scroll down to the 97. Also you might want to check out the review done on the 97 by Tom Gaylord at http://www.compasseco.com/article_tf97_flagship.htm for more information. I got one for my sister to keep varmints down around her place. Very accurate(with a C-T-C rating of 0.15) and powerful. Compasseco, Inc. is a great company to do business with. One of the better bargains out there. Lawdog

Thanks for the quick answer to my question.
Lawdog,thanks for the tip on Tec Force.I believe that i will go with the TF.99.It looks like a heck of a deal,a loooot of power(22) at a great price.
Thanks again pan man.

panman,

I have a Tech Force 99M in .22 caliber and two nice tom turkeys and goodly number of Brush Bunny's in the freezer because of it. Very powerful and very accurate. I mounted a BSA 3-12X 44mm scope on mine using BLK rings. This combination won't break your wallet. Pick one up and the first thing you'll notice is this is a adult size rifle. You can do a whole lot worse. Lawdog
