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 left side and one for fill pressure on the right 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.

So far shot about 150 shots with 5 different pellets all using factory settings. Generally shooting about 35 to 37 FPE no matter what the pellet weight for the round nose pellets in 22 Cal. About half inch groups at 30 yards for variety of pellets. Can handle weight of even the 35 grain JSB Monsters although you have to use single shot magazine for it.
Pros
I have 22 Cal. Shoots Very Accurate. Very Lightweight. Get about 50 shots in factory setting out of box (regulator at 2700PSI). Super Cheap
Cons
Wish the magazine cover would fold out (like my hatsan blitz). This allows for quick reloading versus tedious reloading.
My handheld dB meter read about 110dB at the muzzle which is fairly loud. I added a thin silencer that is same size of barrel but it doesnt allow me to refill the air without taking silencer off.
Fits most pellets but really big ones (JSB 35 Grain Monster) would not fit in magazine though can use single shot magazine instead.
This could be a pro or con depending on your preference. The cheaper plastic feeling stock may have durability issues but also love how lightweight it makes it.

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.

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 USA
If you tune this rifle down, it should be very usable for someone who does not have access to a 300BAR (4500PSI) fill source. I'm not sure about hand pumpers, but if you have a supply of high pressure air, give this rifle some serious consideration. The user manual is also very well laid out and informational.
Pros
Just received my .22cal Avenger this past Saturday, and already had a couple of shooting sessions with it. I added an aftermarket silencer with an adapter from the same source, which helped quiet down the rifle. Out of the box accuracy was pretty good at 33yds with Crosman Premier HPs, but after I tuned the rifle down a little for shooting JSB Hades at 850FPS, it was lights out! I am so amazed by this rifle that I'm considering a second one in .177.
Cons
Nothing, really...just make more of these to keep up with the demand!
