Gamo Whisper Air Rifle

Product Features

• Warranty: One year limited warranty
• Spring Rifle w/Noise Dampener

Product Description

You'll be ready to hunt small and medium-sized game and vermin with the Gamo Whisper! Plus, the non-removable noise dampener reduces the report (noise) up to 52%, which means you won't spook game while hunting. But, just because the Whisper is modestly priced doesn't mean you give up anything in the accuracy department! You'll be hitting your targets and making one-shot kills time after time. This just might be the ideal spring gun! We measured the cocking effort with the metal spring, and it was 35 lbs. (Gamo lists it at 30 lbs.). Velocity will vary depending on the type of ammo you use: .177: 1200 fps with PBA, 1000 fps with lead .22: 950 fps with PBA, 750 fps with lead (our tests show 720 fps with 14-grain pellets)... Click on the AMMO link for recommended pellets and the ACCESSORIES link for shooting glasses, targets & more. The owner's manual states that the scope is mounted and bore-sighted. It is not.... ...

5.0 out of 5 stars About the quietness of the Whisper, April 2, 2010

I see a lot of comments about the Gamo Whisper being "loud" and not quiet. It's NOT the gun that's loud, it's the ammunition you are using in it. The PBA Raptor rounds you guys are firing are SUPERSONIC rounds. The "crack" you hear is the PBA Raptor ammo breaking the sound barrier. Switch to a heavier, standard lead pellet, around 9-10 grams, and you won't hear that crack.

5.0 out of 5 stars This Aint' No Kiddie Air Rifle, January 2, 2009

This review is from: Gamo Whisper Air Rifle (Misc.)

Wow Very impressed with the power this thing has 1200 fps.With PBA's.22 long rifle rim fire 1250 fps. Air rifles have come along way since I was a kid this is definately an adult air rifle I pinned my 1st target to a piece of 1/2'' plywood it blew right through that next I tried a piece of 3/4'' plywood blew through that and stuck in the fence behind it a half inch in, if your looking for an air rifle to kill small to medium size game look no no further, in the wrong hands this air rifle could kill something larger I just can't say it, or even imagine any parent buying this for thier kids without supervsion while there shooting it. I'm not trying to bum anybody's high but this is definetly not for kids.This air rifle is constructed very well and appears to have been well thought out in the design stage. I also like the adjustable trigger, and scope. While I was shooting one of my nieghbors stopped by he thought I was shooting a .22 short rimfire so as far as the sound dampener is concened I may have got one that doesn't work so well or it's louder than I expected fortunetly all my neighbors are cool ( we're all rednecks) lets just hope the fuzz don't stop by for a visit cause they may want to shoot it too or take me to jail either way I'm very pleased with this air rifle and will probably sell a few more for Amazon. Thank You alway's remember safety first.

3.0 out of 5 stars Game "Whisper"? don't think so....., January 25, 2010

This review is from: Gamo Whisper Air Rifle (Misc.)

I just brought my .22 Gamo Whisper home today. I bought it so I could shoot it in my backyard without freaking out the neighbors who know I'm a firearms instructor. I didn't want them to hear loud shooting and get worried that I had a negligent discharge. I got the Whisper because of its good reviews, but mainly due to the noise supressor it came with.

I took it in the backyard....and BLAM! Man, that thing was so LOUD!

I don't know what they're thinking by putting "It's the Quiet Gun!" on the side of the box because believe me, amigos....it isn't even remotely quiet.

It's easily as loud as a .22 rifle...as in a REAL .22 rifle.

It shoots great, looks great, and handles even better. But, dang, it is so freakin' loud.

Suburban backyard shooters looking for a quiet Gamo.... beware!
