Daisy AVANTI Triumph 747 Air Pistol
is the Daisy AVANTI Triumph 747 Air Pistol a good starter pistol for junior shooters 10 years and older?
Re: Daisy AVANTI Triumph 747 Air Pistol
We have both the Daisy and the Crosman 2300 available in our club and most (all?) of the juniors prefer the Crosman. I think it comes down to the lever mechanism versus the CO2. I think you can order a custom 2300 from Crosman for about the same price as the Daisy.

I shot a 777 until my P44 arrived. I find it hard to think that a 10 year old would like the weight and nose heaviness of the 747. The shoot well and are stone cold reliable, but my adult arms tire towards the end of a 60.... I cant imagine it being fun for a little one to shoot in a match... Probably fine for non serious shooting, but not light enough in my opinion.

The 717 is lighter, maybe better for younger shooters- but the 747 shoots better than I ever will. (maybe not saying much, but they do shoot!!)
