DAISY AVANTI Model 747 Triumph
Single-pump pneumatic with side pump lever;standard bolt action. AVANTI's finest
match-grade pistol. The Avanti 747 is a great air pistol for high school, scouts,
4-H, and NRA target competition and training at a great price. Match-grade air
pistols generally cost hundreds of dollars, sometimes well over $1,000. The 747
Triumph is an exception to the rule. This .177 caliber single-stroke pneumatic
air pistol truly delivers match accuracy at a suggested retail price of under
$200.
The Triumph weighs about two and one-third pounds and measures 13
and a half inches from end to end. It has a blade and ramp front sight and an
open rear sight that is fully adjustable for windage and elevation simply by turning
the appropriate screw on the top or right side of the sight.
The single-stage
trigger is adjustable from one to four and a half pounds of pull by turning a
small screw located in the pistol frame just under the trigger guard. The grips
are molded, checkered plastic with a contoured thumb rest. Left-hand grips are
available at additional cost. What really sets the Triumph apart is its Lothar
Walther match-grade barrel which is crowned and choked for maximum accuracy.
Loading
the Triumph is straightforward. First, put the pistol on safe by pushing the trigger
safety from left to right so that no red is showing. Next, rotate the bolt handle
upward and pull it back. This cocks the action. The Triumph cannot fire with the
bolt open, but the bolt must be open to pump the gun.
Next, pump the gun
by pulling the pump lever, located on the left side of the pistol, as far forward
as possible then returning it to its original position by pushing on the curved
end of the lever with the palm of your hand. About 17 pounds of force are required
to complete the pumping stroke.
With the bolt back and the gun pumped, load
a pellet, solid end first, into the feed track in front of the bolt. Push the
bolt forward, then rotate the bolt handle down. Make sure the Triumph is pointed
in a safe direction and click the safety off. You're now ready to fire. Squeeze
the trigger, and the pellet will zip downrange at around 360 feet per second,
depending upon the weight of the pellet.
The 747 Triumph is a favorite of
IHMSA silhouette shooters not only because it is the most accurate air pistol
that qualifies for the air pistol production class, but also because it is competitive
in all other IHMSA air pistol classes. Many world records have been set with the
747 Triumph, and it can be used for entry-level 10-meter air pistol competition.
In
addition, the Triumph is an excellent pistol for high-accuracy friendly competition
in the back yard. With a Triumph, a tin of pellets, and a box of ShatterBlast
targets, you'll likely be amazed at how far and how accurately you can shoot with
an air pistol.
An adjustable piston in the single-pump pneumatic system
for consistent velocity maintains pinpoint accuracy, shot after shot.
Also features an adjustable trigger and match-grade choked steel barrel. This
is a no-nonsense match pistol
