RWS 34P Air Rifle- .22 Caliber Air Rifle

Out of the box this .22 is one heck of a good looking rifle. And it shoots as well as it looks - with the stock iron sights I was getting sub-1" groups at 10 yards, within the first few minutes of receiving it. A tuna can at 25-30 yards is an easy target, every time. The trigger is fine for me without any adjustment at all, you can almost forget it's there and then it surprises you when it goes off - it lets you concentrate on the target. It really likes the Crosman 14.3 grain domed pellets. But they average only about 680fps. I may have to "spring" for a 350 for more speed, ha ha...

Great product out of box, very nice design, high quality and happy with airgundepot service.

I have a number of air rifles, but have never been able to find the right balance between weight, power, and accuracy. When ordering the RWS 34P I was hopeful, but not entirely prepared for the excellent craftsmanship or aforementioned balance. After breaking this rifle in, sighting in the Hawke 3-9x50 IR, and testing the limits of this air rifle, I began to sense my expectations had finally been surpassed. The rifle's weight makes hours of hunting fun. The balance point is easy to find. The cocking effort is negligible. When it comes time to take a shot the trigger is smooth enough you can forget its there. The RWS 34 is more accurate than I am by far, but that hasn't stopped me from bagging small game at over a 100 yards. Even at that kind of distance, there is still a satisfying thud to reaffirm you did everything right. In short, if you are torn between this air rifle and anything within this price range, you are absolutely missing out on the perfect hunting/target companion (unless you buy the RWS 34). Some helpful tips: The best pellet for the RWS 34 is the Crosman premier domed 14.3 grain hunting pellet, which is also one of the cheapest pellets available. The trigger is a T06, which improves over the T05 and requires a different droop compensating mount. If buying a separate mount, make sure to get one that is compatible with the T06--T05 mounts will not fit. If target shooting, look up duct seal pellet traps. They run about $70 or $20, if you make it yourself. Strongly recommend this trap because you will be shooting tight groups and most metal pellet traps are junk after a week.

Man, I have nothing negative to say about this rifle. Shoots great, easy to handle and cock, fantastic quality and feel. I think I not only found a new fun hobby, but a great rifle to do it with.

The 34 Panther .22 is a VERY NICE!!! I was torn between the wood stock and the composite stock. I am sure the wood stock is nice but this composite stock is VERY NICE!!!!! The Grip is in the right place. My Benjamin Trail all weather stock does not have the grip texture in the right place at all and areas that are very slick. The stock on the 34 P is Narrow to the point of being Perfect & AWESOME!!! The feel is perfect, LOP is perfect!! Balance, perfect!! Feels great in the arms!! I have a Benjamin Trail, the stock is BULKIER!! Very wide fore and does not feel right. It actually feels much lighter than it is. Airgun depot shipped this gun VERY quickly. I received it in 2 days.

This is the most accurate mid-powered springer I have yet come across(I have 11 airguns.....)! Really nice trigger and sights are nice.

Quality is very nice. Still breaking this in with a half a can of Superdomes into targets. While the .22 is great, I may have gone with .177 for more fps and range. Not using it as a hunter so ft pounds at 40 or 50 yards is not a concern. Staying with the open sights for now. Front sight blade seems a little thick for anything past 35 yards or so. I still need a lot of work to get my standing 25 yard groups smaller. Power is good. Trying to find the right hold.

I like the gun except for a couple exceptions. Once you site it in you need to stay with the pellet you used to site it in. Every time I changed pellets it shot differently. Also, the fiber optics break easily so I bought a scope.

This is a great gun. Some people complain about it being heavy, but I think it makes it shoot better. I shot a squirrel at 40yd....droped him out of the tree. I love this gun. I shot the whisper that my grandpa has, and the panther is just a much better gun. The quality of the panther is great!

This airgun is BOSS. I knocked a racoon out of a tree at about 20 yards and a crow at 15 so this rifle is awesome, powerfull and acurate.

excellent gun. read all these reviews and i was hesitant to spend this much on an air rifle--definitely worth it. especially bc of the life time warranty. shoots straight. one down side--very heavy

This is a great gun. Very accurate, and packs a serious punch. Easily hits 1 inch diameter targets at 60 yds with open sights, and thats even using my pretty low quality crossman plinking pellets! WARNING: may be hazardous to starlings of all ages who crap on my dad's cars and eat my grandma's birdseed, or just tick me off by there presence in my yard.

Ok..here is the deal, i just received this rifle about an hour ago..i pulled it out of the box, read the manuals. About 10 minutes ago i saw a squirrel, loaded a Beeman Crow Magnum pellet .22 caliber, pointed it at the squirrel and let it rip..it dropped and crawl a foot and died..OK like i said..OUT OF THE BOX, i did not sight in the rifle at all. This rifle is Powerful, Accurate and a lot of fun. ITS A MUST BUY!!!

Awesome rifle. Easy to load, easy to cock. high quality, powerful, acurate. Perfect sight system.

perfect rifle, powerful and acurate. Hi quality. fun thing would get another one.

I first got a Walther Falcon Hunter and was extremely unhappy with the 5 pounds of trigger pull. They said that it could not be lowered. Sent it back and got the RWS. It is a really neat rifle and handles well. I've only shot it 30 or so times so far. I would buy this gun again. It will pinch you where the manuel said it would!

Excellent ballance, power and accuracy

Ordered this gun as a trainer for my small but athletic 15-year old daughter. I anticipatred that she might have a hard time with the 33lb action. The first time I tried cocking it, I had to put the barrel over my knee to break it, u-oh! After about 15-20 cycles, the action loosened up enough that my daughter could cock it without problems. It is very well made and has the nice feel of a quality firearm. Shoots extremely accurate, even in the hands of the inexperienced, using benjamin sheridan diablo .22 pellets. Matched with a Centerpoint 3-9x50 scope and one-piece mount (it looks real cool and the 50mm AO helps with longer range targets). Both of us are having a lot of fun with this gun.
