Who has a Drozd?

[Joe Demko]

I've been looking at advertisements and web pages about the Drozd burst-fire bb gun. I'm kind of tempted to pick one up, but wanted feedback from somebody who has one first.

hi,
great joy! The mass murder of beer cans)

Buy it, you won't regret it.

(but you will spend a small fortune on CO2 powerlets and steel BBs))

I bought one as well, and it's soooo addictive. Initially, it made me cranky because it was packaged with some (russian?) copper coated BBs that were a bit bigger than .177, so towards the end of every CO2 cartrige I'd be punching a stuck BB out of the barrel with a piece of coat hanger wire. Apparently over there they use slightly oversize lead BBs that engage the rifling, and the steel I got sent was oversize to the same spec. Now I stick to Daisy/Crossman BBs, and it runs like a dream. I heartily reccommend it!

I now have two. I love these things, they are a real ball to shoot.
