Overview
The Gamo PT-80 is a highly popular, semi-automatic .177 calibre CO2 pellet air pistol, renowned for its reliability and performance. Manufactured by Gamo, this pistol is ideal for target practice and recreational shooting, offering a blend of power and precision in a compact design.
It features an 8-shot rotary magazine capable of firing rapid sequences, built over a lightweight yet durable polymer frame with a fixed, non-blowback metal shroud. Powered by a 12gm CO2 cartridge housed inside the grip, the PT-80 delivers consistent velocity for an engaging shooting experience.
- Rapid Fire Mechanism: The pistol breaks open at the rear hinge via a release latch, allowing the 8-shot rotary clip to be quickly dropped into place. It is designed to empty all 8 shots in just 1.6 seconds.
- Trigger Pull: Operates in both single action (cocking the exposed hammer first for a crisp ~4 lb pull) and double action (a longer, heavier ~9 lb pull that indexes the cylinder and fires).
- Sights: Equipped with standard three-dot white sights. The rear sight can be adjusted horizontally for windage using an Allen key, allowing for precise aiming.
- Gas Efficiency: A single 12gm CO2 cartridge yields approximately 40 to 50 effective, high-velocity shots before a noticeable drop in power.
- Pellet Compatibility: Due to the thin rotary wheel indexing system, pellet length is critical. Flat-head (wadcutter) or low-dome pellets, such as Gamo Match or Gamo Hunter, are recommended. Avoid pointed, long, or polymer-tipped pellets (like Gamo Red Fire, Magnum, or ), as these can protrude past the magazine edge and cause the cylinder to jam.
