I'm not to sure about the USA designation. I've never seen one of those. But the Anschutz 190 or CIL 190 is kind of a beginner's model.
I have not seen one in a long time but I'd guess they're worth $450- $550. I definately would not pay more than that.
Thanks.
Not sure this has the (optional) sights. Although it looks like they're available on flea bay for ~$180. Was your 450 - 550 estimate including the sights or without?
With. They came standard with them. They are not an add on.
Also, there are many different diopter sights. The ones on that rifle are not worth $180.
This is a good quality starter. I say get it. I bought an Anschutz Achiever. Really considered a child's gun. But it came with stock spacers to adjust LOP. It is now one of my favorite rifles. I even had it threaded for my suppressor.
