Why Shooters Choose the Beeman Sportsman Gas Ram
Gas Ram Power = Smoother Shot Cycle: A sealed gas piston replaces coiled springs for consistent power, reduced vibration, and improved cold-weather performance.
Backyard-Friendly Accuracy: The .177 caliber excels for target training and small-pest control (observe local laws), with flat trajectories and inexpensive pellets.
Ready to Aim, Your Way: Use the bright fiber-optic sights for fast acquisition or mount the included 4x32 scope for precise holds at distance.
All-Weather Durability: A fixed, black synthetic stock resists moisture, dings, and daily use—ideal for truck, barn, or range.
Easy Maintenance: Break-barrel design means no separate power source; just cock, load a pellet, close, and shoot.
