I have this pistol and the original. The Mk2 has a hole for trigger adjustment. My finger catches on this hole each time I fire and it was bleeding within the first five shots. I never had this problem with the original version. My solution was to wrap three layers of electrical tape in the trigger guard to completely cover the hole. Problem solved. In all other respects a great air pistol
Great Review bought one of these after watching your Review to use at my Range. Was looking for a good quality pellet gun for target shooting or for even close range pest control The Benjamin Trail packs a punch a definite can killer. Works well at 15m to 20m on the range when matched with a red/green dot.
I think the Gamo Compact is easier to shoot. It’s lighter, has a smaller grip if you are encouraging youngsters to shoot. It’s not as powerful as the Trail MK2 and doesn’t have fibre optics for sights, but the Gamo sights are very adjustable. The down side is the Gamo Compact doesn’t have a safety, but they do the similar PR45 which has a cross bolt safety. After I reduced the sear release on the Gamo, it became much more nice to shoot, and my wife agrees as it’s her pistol. Me personally I do prefer the Compact purely for its lighter weight and the ability to shoot her one handed, after all she is a genuine cheap target pistol. I think I will buy the PR45 for myself too. Hope this helps.
Harder than it looks , this pistol stuff , as I’ve found with my latest videos , and like me , a washing machine going in the background, in my case , kids screaming as well ,, I live next door to a school, Mr Reeves , I’d like to have a few shots with the steyre, or the air arms Alfa, somthing with a decent trigger , take care buddy , shaneweightman
Hello, how long can you have this charged without firing? I use mine for rat control in my barn and I keep it charged, but don't want to damage my pistol. And also do you know if there is a way to de-cock it without having to fire off a round? Thanks!
Unfortunately this pistol can not be de-cocked but it would be fine during ratting. Airguns should not be left unattended or stored cocked and loaded, so ready during ratting shouldn’t be a problem mechanically for any airgun.
Both very good and accurate in the right hands.The Trevox is the more powerful of the two at around 5 Ft/Lb, but for smaller hands the NP Mark II is probably just too big and heavy.
I have a small laser sight on mine and it will impact the trigger guard during cocking if you pull it all the way. I can avoid this by cocking slowly until it is cocked without the sight impacting the frame, there is about 5mm of space left at the point where the pistol cock catches.
NO WONDER YA SHOTS WA OFF" WHY HAVE YOU GOT STONES IN YOUR LAUNDRY DRIER"???? IT PUT ME OFF LET ALONE YOU, ARE YOU OKAY WITH THE WIFE"? ID SAY SHE PUT THAT MACHINE ON, ON PURPOSE,
Only if you think a 3.5 ft/Lb .177 cal. pellet at the muzzle can penetrate a 2mm thick steel backstop at 35 yards, only if the grass, the concrete boxes and the soil embankment doesn't stop it (That's if I miss the pellet trap). Far from foolish, and making stupid comments like that, will not get you on my Christmas card list.😂😂.
nothing like the sound of the old washer to get that rythem going.
Muchas gracias sargento García. Muy bueno el vídeo.

Nice shooting....I learn loads off your videos...always informative...better than most similar sites...always look forward to your uploads.
Fitted a bipod to mine had to chop a bit of the bracket to miss when cocking but super accurate now also have a scope fitted

Nice pistol. I have the old version and the rifle as well.
WHEN YA KNOW YA GOT THE POWER FOR THE SHOT YA INSTANTLY MORE CONFIDENT OF MAKING THE SHOT.
If you must choose between this one and the Gamo compact? I liked both your video’s. I want to buy one of these two. Your opinion will help.

@@RossieHoorn No Problem, anytime.

Did the Gnat survive?😂
Is that sound the Dryer?
That’s my washing machine. I do my video from the open kitchen window, which picks up much of the sound around the camera.😂

Are those your dog kennels sitting directly behind the targets?
No. Those boxes are made of concrete slabs to shoot into. I have a variety of different targets in them.
Hello, which pistol is the best between the trevox and crosman NP mark II according to you ?
Both very good and accurate in the right hands.The Trevox is the more powerful of the two at around 5 Ft/Lb, but for smaller hands the NP Mark II is probably just too big and heavy.
If it has a laser sight mounted underneath.. would that cause a problem when cocking?
I will fit one soon to try out.
I have a small laser sight on mine and it will impact the trigger guard during cocking if you pull it all the way. I can avoid this by cocking slowly until it is cocked without the sight impacting the frame, there is about 5mm of space left at the point where the pistol cock catches.
Is it better then the first vergin
I once shot the back leg of a gnat with one of these from 72 metres. Left handed 😉
Did the Gnat survive?😂😂
@@reevessairgunningreviews5572 yeah but he flys with a limp now

😂😂 wife’s great. She’s just bought me a HW75 pistol yesterday.👍 The microphones on my Camera unfortunately is sensitive to sound from behind it.
looks like a house at the end of your garden that is dangerous mush..... foolish
