The Gamo P-430 lets you shoot either BBs or pellets for an affordable price, and you don't need an additional magazine or adapter cartridges to do it. It gives you speeds up to 495 fps using alloy pellets for fun and exciting performance when plinking or target shooting.
You'll appreciate that this air pistol doesn't need tools to swap the 12 gram CO2 cartridge. That's because it has a thumbscrew underneath the back of the grip that you loosen to take out a cartridge and tighten to pierce and secure the new cartridge, meaning you won't need to search for a hex wrench to keep shooting.
You can shoot the Gamo P-430 by either pulling back the slide to cock it and use the trigger in single action mode, or use the trigger to both cock and shoot it in double action mode. That makes it so you shoot the air pistol as fast as you can pull the trigger, in the same way you would with a semi-auto airgun.
The double sided magazine has two rotary clips on each end that hold 8 rounds, giving you a total of 16 rounds per magazine. You'll also get a firm hold on the airgun because of the grip with ridges on the front and back, plus texturing on the right and left side. The fixed rear notch sight and fixed front post sight give you added aiming precision.
If you want a unique air pistol that can shoot either pellets or BBs for accurate and entertaining plinking and target shooting, get a Gamo P-430 from Airgun Depot now.

I'M TOTALLY EXPERIMENTING W/THESE, SO I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GET BEST PRICES FOR 'AMMO' & CO2.. I'M FINDING, LIKE MOST OTHER THINGS, THAT GREATER QUANTITIES CAN MAKE A BIIIIIG DIFFERENCE IN UNIT PRICES..
Pros
EVERYTHING ON THE P-430 SEEMS TO BE ABSOLUTELY PERFECT: GREAT WT, SOLID SAFETY, SHOOTS ANY KIND OF 'AMMO' W/NO PROBS SO FAR VS A DOWNER FOR SOME OTHER TYPES, EASY TO USE AND IT'S PRETTY FAST, UP TO 495/SEC LIKELY DUE TO NON-BLOWBACK, AND ACCURATE, PLUS THE MAG RELEASE IS PRETTY SOLID WHERE SOME ARE PRETTY TOUCHY
Cons
MAYBE AT LEAST A FRONT SIGHT DAB OF WHITE?
Pros
Amazing guns i love it
Good fun gun to 15 meters
Pros
It's inexpensive to buy .Great beginner co2 pistol.
Cons
Needs a lighter trigger pull. Poor sites.
Pros
No misfires. Easy to load.
This is probably great for the beginner that wants to target practice. I purchased to extra mags, fairly cheap, load all three and fun paper punching.
Pros
It a lightweight. I thought it would be more powerful but - not. For a plinker that shoots paper targets, I guess it is OK. Do not shoot planks, you WILL get them back, my son was trying to catch them as they came flying back, if you get hit (except in the eye, wear eye protection) you get hit, does not hurt, so far. It will put a small dent in a can, would not try to shoot a bird, the bird will fly away.
Cons
The mag release button, just look at it hard and it will drop a mag. I was not aware sometimes that I would just accidently hit it, oops, there goes the mag. Just load the BB or dome pellets, the pointed and heavy pp will not load.
Pros
Nice pellet gun
Pros
Very nice dependable airgun
Air gunners you ROCK! Tell your hard working staff behind the scenes there the backbone of the company.
Pros
I liked the look the feel & the 16 shot interchangeably bb/pellet magazine clip.ease of loading & incerting Co2 cartridges.
Cons
Nothing great job!
Great addition to my collection!!!
Pros
This Gamo pistol is one of the most accurate of the CO2 pistols for its price range! It's really great that its magazine is used for both BBs and Pellets. It's fun to shoot and really fast to change the magazine to reload another 8 rounds.One of the easiest pistols to use and can even alternate between ammo types!!!
Cons
It only comes with one magazine and I can't find how to get another one. 2 magazines are needed for selfdefense training.
