Airgun Reviews

My first impression when I lifted it out of the box that this is one solid pcp. The stock on this one was synthetic. I am not that keen on synthetic stocks but I have to say that Hatsan again has done a fine job on this stock. It felt great in my hands and shouldered nicely.

I’ve had a chance to shoot two Hatsan air rifles, this one and its sister, the Walther Falcon Hunter. After spending some time with these gun I can honestly say they are wonderful. The guns Mosey Oak Camo is flawless. Hatsan has embedded rubber for gripping the gun on the forearm and the rear grip area.

I've owned and still shoot several Hatsan manufactured Daisy/Powerline/Winchester airguns. Although rough around the edges, I have grown to respect these springers as the powerhouse hunter/plinkers they are. With a little spit and polish, they can be excellent additions to anyone's arsenal of airguns.

I have had the opportunity to test and review some of the new Stoeger airgun pellets that are now available. I received 7 tins of various 177 pellets to do a review of and the first thing I noticed is the packaging as it really got my attention.

Gamo developed the Inert Gas Technology air rifles to compete with the nitro piston air rifles from Crosman. This is a first reaction review, more details are soon to come along with some pictures and maybe even a video.

Today I'm going to be reviewing a really innovative airgun from Gamo . The Viper Express Shotgun is the first ever of its kind. It is a true shotgun that fires Gamo's new shot shell ammo.

This is a great toy but frankly I've been surprised by its velocity performance. It routinely pumps out steel BBs at round 500 feet per second which is significantly above the factory specs of 330 FPS.

This is one of the reasons I felt compelled to write this review on the pellet rifle that is now the jewel of my air rifle collection: the Tech Force 99.

The largest producer of airguns in the world is Gamo, and they have made a business of high quality, mass produced, affordable spring piston airguns for just about any application or style of shooting. I consider them the “Ruger” of the airgun world as a matter of fact.

There are many CO2-powered guns on the market, but in my humble opinion, this gun is one of the nicest offerings with many desirable features not found on other airguns.

A truly ambidextrous gun, it is at home for both the left-handed and right-handed shooter. Break-barrel in design, the gun used a ball detent to lock the action firmly in place after loading and cocking.

The Hammerli Razor that I have been shooting the last few days is a .22 caliber gun set in a nicely finished wood stock that features checkering in the pistol grip area and along the forearm.

Nothing can compete with the frustration of a newly purchased rifle and no animals in season. There is the ever present paper target, but what to do after the pellets have been tested, drop in range calculated, and the urged to hike in the field for targets becomes overwhelming? I turn to Jackrabbits.

Tech Force has arrived on American shores, and this Chinese-made powerhouse compares very nicely with many European models. At 46” long and weighing in around 7.5 pounds, it is a full-size airgun meant for the adult shooter.

Today we take some time to look at the "little air rifle that could." These are the types of finds that I really enjoy coming across. BAM, or Xisico USA, as you may find it on-line, has several unique little rifles.

Starting from top to bottom you will find: B5-10 Multi Pump pistol/rifle, B3-1 "AK47" side lever/spring air rifle, B9 takedown/side lever/spring air rifle, B12 break barrel/spring air rifle, B26 break barrel/spring air rifle, B30 side lever/spring air rifle, B40 under lever/spring air rifle. So how did they all do?  Keep reading  and find out.

For the break-barrel enthusiast, Crosman has now introduced the Benjamin Nitro Piston series of air rifles, powered by the nitrogen-filled gas ram licensed by Crosman.

The G1 Extreme Kit from Crosman fits this role perfectly. This rifle easily competes with rifles in the $200+ range, and from my perspective actually outperforms many of them, including my Gamo Hunter 440.
