I recently received the Pinty 22 caliber air rifle.
First off I have to say I was impressed by the packaging in the box. Everything is sealed in foam and cardboard , made for a very nice shipping box. I unpacked the rifle and inspected and everything seemed to be in good condition. From there, I ran a few patches down the barrel to get anything that was in it from shipping or factory cleaned out.
After that, I added air pressure to it and left it. Sit for a little bit to make sure it held.
Once I was satisfied with that, I added some Crosman Premier Hollow point pellets. I chose those pellets because I saw other reviews. Say they do very well. Mine was exactly the same, at 40 yards I put five shots in under half inch group. After that, I did more pellet testing and also adjusted the trigger..
One thing about the trigger screw I found it did not hold its position in the plastic trigger blade. I put some black nail polish on the threads of the screw and set it back in the position I wanted. After the nail polish dried, I haven’t had any problem since.
If you unthread the barrel shroud you will actually find 1/2 by 20 threads on the end of the barrel. You can add a suppressor on the end of it if you wish to make it more quiet.
I do like suppressed rifles, but I hate adding the length to the gun. For right now, I’m shooting the Pinty with just the barrel shroud and it does help quite the gun down a little bit.
For the money spent, I am highly satisfied with this rifle. I will be recommended to other people who want to get started or just looking for a nice plinking rifle
