Springer Retreat

As I first picked opened the box I noticed one thing, this is one BIG gun. For me holding it in not uncomfortable but it is not relaxed either (this is probally due to the fact that I am short). As far as trademarks go therer are not very many; two that say Tokyo Mauri one that say Benelli M3 Super 90 and another one that has some stuff as if it was made in wingdings but looks pretty cool.

Overall the gun is not that heavy (for its size) and slightly front heavy but very little this I think is due to thje fact that there are a lot of metal part on the front but I like the weight. Even though this gun does not have a lot of metal it has a real nice finish and doesn't look plasticy at all, I guess it has about the average amount of metal.

Now to get to the preformance: I cannot say what the true maximum range is because of the limitations of my backyard. I shot at a foot by foot cardboard box and I used a .2, .12 mix for spread. From 20 or so feet a 1-2 inch grouping was obtained and shot through one whole side of the box. From 55 feet 4-5 inch groupings were obtained as two bbs would hit and the other would barely miss penetrating almost 1 side of the box.

Pros: Good accuracy, nice look, shootin 3 bbs at once rock!!!
Cons: Little to long (for me) , nothin the gun rocks
