One of the hottest and most talked about guns in recent times, the Air Venturi Avenger is at the top of many wish lists and in high demand. No other gun on the market gives you this combination of versatility, quality, and affordability, which makes it the entry level rifle to beat.
First things first: the Avenger delivers on its promises. The gun goes toe to toe in accuracy against premium guns that cost 5 times as much. It could even be the most accurate airgun you'll own, and certainly at this price point.
What makes the Avenger so different is its adjustability. It has an externally adjustable regulator and an adjustable hammer spring. You can tune this rifle almost any way you want, from a lower power hand pump setup, to a high power compressor setup. There's never been a gun like it anywhere near this price level.
There are two gauges for your convenience, one for reg pressure on the right side and one for fill pressure on the left side. There's also a light and crisp 2 stage adjustable trigger, and the male quick disconnect fitting at the end of the air cylinder makes for easy fills.
The airgun with many setup options also has 2 holes for swivel studs and a Picatinny forearm rail for stock accessories like lasers, bipods, and lights. Also, your choice of optics mounts easily using the 11mm dovetail and Weaver combo scope rail.
Rounding out the features is a silky smooth sidelever that operates one of the two included auto indexing magazines, giving you more time shooting with less time reloading. If you're looking for an incredibly accurate PCP air rifle that can be set up however you want, the Air Venturi Avenger is your answer.

Not inexpensive, but it is affordable. Excellent gun for someone new entering into the shooting sports. With no recoil and very little noise, it avoids the firearms recoil anticipation many new shooters have to deal with.
Pros
The Avenger is enjoyable to shoot. No issues with the gun or any accessories. With a Hawke scope, it's almost impossible to miss. Very glad I purchased one.
Cons
Nothing I've seen yet.
put air in it scope on it, hade it sighted in at 40 yards in ten shots. in side a quarter , at 80 yards, it took me 7 shots to find the second mil dot 3 bullseyes running 2100 psi and got 38 shots before pressure drop below set pressure 25 cal. my neighbor like ti so much he bought one but 22 cal. Love it !
Pros
I like everything about it
Cons
No Con's
To All Airgunners..The Air Venturi Advenger is a must have to your collection
Pros
Crazy accurate,,light ,,, affordable.
The list is endless.They it out of the on this one
Cons
I can't find any Cons on this one other then I wish they make a Dirty 30
Pros
Love the lightweight stock , very low noise firing .25 caliber pellets. The 8 shot repeater cartridges are somewhat cumbersome to load properly, but once you figure it out, it makes sense.
Cons
Just has a rail to sight from.....you have to invest in a scope to target something.
This is a small game machine coupled with the H&N barracuda pellets , have had squirrels run off after being hit with other pellets and less powerful air rifle but with the Air Venturi/H&N combo have not lost one yet
Pros
Light, powerful, accurate, adjustable 2 stage trigger, what more can you ask for at this price range
Cons
Would be nice if it came with a threaded end cap on end of the barrel for use with a moderator
You simply cant go wrong with this PCP.
Pros
Super accurate with the heavier pellets. Craftsmanship is on par with PCPs costing twice as much. Trigger is amazing.
Cons
At this price point I wouldn't change a thing.
Very nice gun for the money!
Pros
Very accurite
Cons
Better quality mags
after 250+ rds thru it and 1 dry patch pulled thru i mounted a donnyfl fx moderator and the accuracy fell off( i thought the added weight gave bad bbl harmonics). but a lightly coated patch with penetrating oil was pushed thru the bore( stopping way short of the breach area to save pressure rings) and let it set a while. then the double patch pulled thru next had several slivers of lead on it. PROBLEM SOLVED! the donnyfl helped a lot on the noise level
Pros
exceptionally accurate, extremely tunable, definitely a 3 noise level, ugly as a mud fence, and powerful. use caution when using 18 gr or higher when the power is full on. the trigger has a very slight creep when lowering the trigger pull weight but still a good trigger. be prepared to fall in love with this rascal!!
at 350 dollars might seem inexpensive but its still 350 dollars and you have to buy a pump a scuba tank or air compressor
Pros
Light Weight adjustable air pressure
Cons
leaks poor quality control. Received with no air pressure.
Question?
Login to ask someone who bought this product.If i order from Philippines is there any assurance that i can receive the item and how long does it take before it arrive? Thanks
asked Leonard from PhilippinesWhat can i realistically hunt with the 25 cal version of this? I've seen a lot of people say it has great power but how does that compare to what animals can i take down with a well placed shot? Would a deer be reasonable?
asked Tyler from USAA deer would absolutely not be reasonable. I think that your upper limit for game should be raccoons or skunks. Much bigger than that, you run the risk of injuring the animal without killing it. Deer is too big.
Ethan from USADo you make it for left handed?
asked Christian from USAWhat is its bore size? What is the depth of rifflings? Is it a choked or straight bore? What is the recommended pellet weight?
asked John from USANew to this. Any stores in FL. where I can get hands on info and setup on an eventual purchase? Definitely like the Venturi Avenger. Live in Tampa, willing to travel FL.
asked Chet from USAi have the 25 cal when i use my hand pump ii here air comming out of the frount of the gun where the fill conector is at
asked charles from USACan nitrogen and or co2 be used
asked Ralph from USAAnytime I attempt to adjust my regulator it leaks. Why? What do I do to fix it?
asked Jesse from USAI have owned three of the new Avenger baffle models and all had regulator creep. The regulator gauge would creep up 200 PSI in seven minutes and 600 to 800 PSI overnight. Has anyone experience regulator creep with their Avenger? Was it with the new baffle model or the non-baffle model?
asked Lawrence Berns from USAI have the avenger in a .22, and very please, very accurate, but it doesn't have enough power to kill a squirrel! Any suggestions, does anybody know what I should do?
asked Otto L. from USAI would make sure its shooting at the right fps. It could just be heavy of a pellet for it to shoot at speed to kill. Havinf said that the right placement for the shot is equally important. I usually shoot for the head or heart. It will drop them without any issue. Usually I go for the head if the set up is right otherwise i go for a vitals hit and that will do the job.
Tyler from USAmy avenger 22 @ 1600 reg psi, 3000 psi plenum, 2 turns in on hammer spring, using any 15.89 gr pellet will knock him dead if hit anywhere in the chest area at 30 yds. head shots are comical. be careful not to over-rev the 14.3s as accuracy will fall off at longer ranges. i muffed a shot once with a gut shot 15.89gr. @20 yds and his guts were hanging out the exit side. he didn't go 5 feet! read your manual on tuning
Dennis from USAregulate psi to 2500
william from USAI have killed 5 squirrels and 1 rabbit with my avenger since september 4th (opening day) and it has never let me down. Always one shot one kill. If you have a chrono, and its going over 800fps with a 14.3gr crosman, you may just be hitting them in the wrong spots. They will run away with anything less then a heart shot
Owen from USAwhich is better .177, .22, .25 pellets i see .177 gives 1000fps
asked vernawn from USADon't be lured by higher FPS, Speed doesn't kill - accuracy kills and very often higher speed kills accuracy
LESLIE from USA.25 is best for anything from squirrels to coyotes
Owen from USAThe multi pellet clip is hung up with pellets in it. It won't line up the pellet with the cocking lever so you cant load a pellet in the chamber
asked Steve from USAreturn clip for new one
william from USAWhat type of silencer should I use?
asked Leroy from USAI just received one from Buck-Rail and it works great and installs in two minutes. (That's out of the shipper to shooting). It's made from 3d printed polymer and cost about one fifth (or less) than most brand names. Only adds 4 inches to length and doesn't interfere with fill nipple.
LESLIE from USADonnyFl Sumo I think
Owen from USAwhat silencer would you recomend for this rifle
asked Jon from USAI just received one from Buck-Rail and it works great and installs in two minutes. (That's out of the shipper to shooting). It's made from 3d printed polymer and cost about one fifth (or less) than most brand names. Only adds 4 inches to length and doesn't interfere with fill nipple.
LESLIE from USADonnyFL Sumo
Owen from USAIs the end of the Barrel Tapped to fit a front sight. So that a Diopter type sight can be used?
asked Norton from USAFront of barrel is covered by the shroud and silencer. There is no provision for attaching a front sight.
LESLIE from USAsuggest a compatible scope
asked David from USAI use a gamo 4x32 on mine, works perfectly
Tyler from USAUTG 4x12x40
william from USAI HAVE HEARD THAT THIS GUN IS A BIT LOUD. Which moderator should I get for it? I do not want to spend more than 1\3 of the cost of the airgun (100$)
asked Terence from USAI've been using the moderators from. Wolfairguns.com. Much more affordable and just as quiet IMO.
Riccardo L. from USAI have been using products from DonnyFL. Nice products. I use them on pcp's from air venturi and benjamin, they allow you to go unnoticed while urban hunting....
Ian from USAWhat do u need to charge up the gun ?
asked Michael from USAAny type of high pressure air pump; bike style if you're not doing it a lot, Small electric ( I use a Benjamin), Air bottle if you have a large HP air Pump or local dive shop to fill it. All will do the job.
Richard from USAAir
Mike from USAHi folks..... I'm pleased with this rifle and it surpasses all expectations. How long can it safely hold 2-3K psi ? Must it be de-gassed after each use? Thanks!
asked Jack from USAActually leaving a pcp devoid of air can be detrimental and as for holding pressure, ,without a leak it will hold air until it is released , no problem.
Ian from USADo you think this gun in .25 can dispatch a hog?
asked Mark from USAWith a head shot
Owen from USAWith the right shot I'd say so but to do it humanely I would think you'd want at least .357 at minimum. Id check with your states D.N.R office to see what they recommended .
Mark from USAI saw a video of a guy killing a hog with a break barrel.22 / ear shot
Colin from USAHad question....can you use a air compressor to fill the gun?
asked Mark from USAno you need a high pressure compressor,one capable of putting out 4500 psi. i just bought the benjamine compressor,im going to use this with a 3000 watt inverter to make it mobile
Steve from USAWhat is the Muzzle energy ft/lbs? On the .25
asked Chris from USAWith 34 grain pellets you can tune for 57 foot pounds and 25 shots as per AEAC
LESLIE from USA45 ft/lbs
Mark from USAHey mark. What size air cylinder is on this gun? Thanks
asked Chris from USACylinder Size 180 cc
Mark from USACan I kill adult iguana with this gun that have invaded my yard, if so what caliber
asked Michael from USAWith good shot placement, .177, .22, or .25 cal can dispatch iguanas humanely. I own the .22cal and it is extremely accurate with reg set at 1200psi using JSB Hades at 860-895 fps.
William from USA22 cal will do. 25 cal for sure,
Mark from USAI'm trying to find out what the receiver is made out of (ie aluminum or polymer)? Are parts/ o-ring sets going to be available to be purchased for this rifle since it is made in china from the distributor (Air Venturi or this site) or are we going to have to get parts from the country of origin? Thanks for any info.
asked Randolph from USAThe receiver group is aluminum. Once the gun is in general production there will be parts,service,and technical help thru Air Venturi.
Mark from USAHope everyone is doing great. I preordered 7/1 and I'd like to know if I can expect a this rifle in the mail soon or not. Have a great day.
asked Steven from USAThe next batch of Avengers are due to be shipped in mid to late Sept.
Mark from USAWhat all needs to be purchased with gun to start shooting?
asked Billy from USAAn air source to fill the gun. 3000-4500 PSI.Ammo .and a scope and rings.
Mark from USA8/2/20 Hi have you guys got any of these guns in yet at all or is everything still on hold?
asked Chris from USAThe second shipment is on it's way.
Mark from USAwhat would be a good scope and rings for this airgun
asked John from USAA 3-9 x or 4-12 x will work fine. Look at the Athlon.Hawke,MTC.or UTG scopes.
Mark from USAWhat size is the air reservior?
asked John from USAhow many psi to charge it fully?
asked Rogerwill it accept an after market moderator like a donny fl ?
asked don hYes. Donny sells an adapter for his moderators that fits the Avenger.
William from USA
Pros
I like everything about this gun. It's accurate and powerful.
Cons
I wish it was about 4 inches shorter in length.
