3.0 out of 5 stars not too impressed.., January 4, 2007

it works fine, but has some major shortcomings..

1) loading the pellets is awkward. You have to put the pellet in the tiny hole of the barrel from a weird angle inside the box where the spring retracts. Nimble fingers needed here.

2) Can't mount a standard scope, the grooves don't accomodate them well without falling off, and the scope makes the pellet loading even more cumbersome if not impossible.

3) I'll admit it's my first spring loaded air-gun, but even then working the lever, and the safety etc. is cumbersome.

it's a solid gun, nice wood stock, nice rubber base, seems to be accurate and powerful enough. Just a lot more cumbersome to use than any of the other air rifles I've owned.

5.0 out of 5 stars So worth the money., June 18, 2010

I had ordered the Tech Force 89 from Compasseco but sent it back. The rifle was for myself and my wife to target practice with at camp. However, it was simply too heavy and difficult to cock. So, I called the folks at Compassaco and arraigned an exchange for the Tech Force 97.

We could not be happier. They sent the new rifle with no problems and this thing is a real gem. Like the 89 the wood is beautiful and the rifle fires true, it's well made and an absolute steal for the money. Unlike the 89 however, it's a breeze to cock and shoot and lighter to handle. The only negative is not with the rifle but the clearance loading pellets if you have a scope. It's not impossible to do but I just wish there was a little more room for the fingers to do it.

Still, for the giveaway price for this pellet rifle compared to the Daisy's plastic handle toy for the same price it's a no brainier. You'll be happy with your purchase.

2.0 out of 5 stars poor workmanship, July 22, 2010

The workmanship on this gun was poor. When I received the gun a screw was missing in the stock. The plugs for the front sight fell off within the first day of owning the gun. I expected better workmanship.
