hey my friend has the Gamo varmint hunter. ive shot it a few times- good gun. bright flashlight aswell as a good lazer. i am a big fan of gamo. if i were you id get the varmint hunter. i have the same basic gun just doesnt have the scope w/ light/ laser. i can easy get rabbits birds and tree rats form 40 yards- no joke- with one shot. so go w/ a gamo its a lot nicer airgun
