Just picked one up at the the Tractor Supply Co (TSC) store in Rockland, Ontario. On the gun and packaging it's marked Ruger Blackhawk. It comes with a full-size black plastic stock and a seemingly decent 4x32 scope for $100. They also have RWS pellets on sale for 30% off.

Are the Airhawk and Blackhawk the same rifle? Ie: synthetic vs wood? The Airhawk is a D34 clone, so this may be a really good deal. What calibre is it?
 
And a RWS full powered mainspring fits...........................the Air Hawk that is not sure about the Black hawk........................Harold .........the scope rail is lacking a suitable stop so it's better with open sites and a good internal polishing
 
When I first looked on the TSC site all I saw was Airhawk. Here's what was on sale in Rockland - tscstores.com/stage/mainhome.php#loadFG_610541

It's a .177 and the Blackhawk is the one with the black plastic stock.

The hi-viz sights look ok at first glance but they are plastic and there seems to be a lot of flexing when adjustments are made. I find that the rear sight notch is not wide enough to see any light at the sides of the front sight. I mounted the scope (there is a stop at the back of the rails on the one I bought) and found that at 15m I had to turn the windage adjustment all the way to the left to get on target. I've only done some plinking in the backyard with it so far but it seems reasonable accurate - consistent hits on small swinging metal discs are easy.

It's a Umarex product, made in China with Ruger logos.

The cocking effort isn't bad, my 16 year old daughter can manage it.
