Usually it stands for "Safety." When activated it keeps the trigger in a safe fire mode.
Gamo's ( Air Guns/Rifles ) are made in Spain. If you want to see their home page click on the link below.
Gamo is a manufacturer and retailer of air rifles. They also make and sell a variety of air rifle ammunition and accessories, such as targets and magazines.
Start with the Gamo home page "Gamousa" customer service contact. Or see the link below for shops that repair air rifles.
Both companies make fine air rifles. Your question is too general. It's like asking which is better Honda or Toyota without comparing two specific models. Crosman is a larger company and makes air rifles in all categories from inexpensive to costly. Gamo is a smaller company and makes air rifles in the medium to costly range. So trying to say one is better than the other is not a fair comparison. They both make fine air rifles. Now if you had two specific models then you could make a comparison.
If you disassembled it you may want to contact Gamo directly and see if they can help you with a diagram. Call 954-581-5822 Gamo Customer Service. Unlike Crosman who post schematics for all their guns and rifles, Gamo and Daisy does not. Your next best shot is to check the web for an "Air gun repair" shop and send it to them for assembly and repair.
There are air rifles and there are air guns. These are guns that use air or C02 to fire a BB or Pellet, not gunpowder. A DAISY RED RYDER BB Rifle would be considered an "air rifle." There are several companies that make air guns and air rifles. Gamo, Daisy, Crosman, and Umarex are a few of these companies.
Gamo makes a dozen different rifles and pistol's. I find then to be of Very Good quality. I personally prefer the Nitro piston models over Spring. The new Dynamax (PCP) looks promising but expensive.
This is all a matter of opinion. So I suggest you watch the video, See the link below.
Walther gets my vote. --------------------- New Answer--------------------------------------------------------- The finest .177 calibre air rifles are Olympic Competition .177 air rifles. These will fall to the Feinwerkbau line of Olympic rifles. However these are not cheap. The average cost is around $2500. Next in line are rifles made by AirForce airguns. Benjamin PCP airguns, Webley & Scott PCP air guns, Daystate LTD airguns and a few other PCP (PreCharged Pneumatin) air gun companies. Crosman, Gamo and Avante make fine air guns and rifles but are not as accurate as the ones previously mentioned.
To get an estimate of value you will need to supply more information. Is this and El Gamo made for Daisy airgun Model 126? is this a El Gamo 126 Super Match? Or is it just one of the 30 different rifles made by Gamo? What is the condition of the rifle? Is it working? What is the model number? Giving me the serial number is no help. Re-post your question with more information and I will try to answer your question
It's not designed to take game that large. You would need an air rifle that fires a 45 or 50 caliber pellet. "Sam Yang" or "Shin Sung" make such rifles
This is like asking, "IS Ford Better than Chevy?" It all depends on who you ask. I own rifles made by both manufactures and have no preference. It all up to the user. Things I look for in a rifle are how well it is made. I prefer wood over plastic. I like Metal parts. In the last few years I find more and more plastic creeping into the components. Like the Trigger guard. Gamo is known for having a sloppy trigger. But Diana has had some problems. So I suggest reading the reviews on (See the link Below) to see what other people say about the rifles before you purchase one. Also be aware that some models have been discontinued like the Gamo Hunter extreme 1250. It's a fine rifle but no longer made.
