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.

This is a well put together gun for its price range. Anyone thinking of stepping up to the pcp world should look seriously about getting this gun. You won't be disappointed. I'm shooting the 177 cal and have had it only a week, 5 shot groups at 40 yards a dime easily covers and its getting better the more i shoot this amazing rifle. Thanks, Airgun Depot, i'm very happy with this puchase.
Pros
Very accurate. Love the trigger. Shooting an accurate gun is FINALLY fun to me and this gun is fun to shoot.
Cons
My being a left handed shooter the safety is a little awkward but other then that, nothing.
This is my first pcp and first .25 cal, I have a couple popular brand break barrels in .177 and .25. After owning a .25 I will not buy either of the other calibers again. This gun is approaching .22 rim fire power with 33.95 king heavies and has a very good shot count (35ish at factory 2900 psi) and with Donny fl tanto moderator it is extremely quiet. I only shoot at 40 yards because that is all I need for my area and there is just one tattered hole after shooting the 8 round mag. It is a critter hitter and unlike the .177 they do not go anywhere after being hit with this. I have a vortex crossfire 3x9 on it and it is perfect. People complain about the hollow stock, but it doesnt matter to me, it is not a collectors edition and seems strong(no flex or negative issues) and the gun is light for its size. I have about 500 pellets through it and I highly recommend this gun for beginners.
Pros
Extremely accurate
Cons
None
This gun is amazing hits in the same spot every single time. I can get about 70 shots and I am using knockout 25.39 grain slugs .216 cal. Loves the knockouts haven’t tried other slugs (Only using slugs) but the knockouts are shooting really consistent and accurate and are very affordable. I can reach out easy to 100 yards. I am using a falsco scope form Amazon that was 50 dollars. And I am reaching 100 yards def could reach further just haven’t tried going further yet. Everything is high quality on this gun wouldn’t change anything. Really light and easy to control
Pros
Very consistent, extremely accurate, a lot of shots
Cons
None
Unfortunately my first avenger arrived with a faulty regulator. A big thanks to Airgun Depot for promptly replacing it with a new gun. This gun shoots flawlessly. After years of shooting break barrel rifles, I decided to give PCP air rifles a try. I chose the 22 caliber avenger. This gun really surprised me. It shoots way beyond its price range, None of my break barrel rifles come close to the accuracy this gun has. At 1800 pounds on the regulator ,I am shooting jsb jumbo heavy 18.13 grain pellets at 865 fps and consistently getting 1/2 inch groups at 50 yards. Pretty impressive setup for the price.
Pros
incredibly accurate . The avenger is very easy to tune.
Cons
none so far
Overall, it's a great air rifle and I would absolutely recommend it, as I have the . 25 cal. I put the the foam crack sealer like what you put in windows to fix the hollow in the stock. Really nice power.
Pros
Accurate, easy to adjust to personal settings, not to heavy. I love the side lever.
Cons
Slight drop when sighting in scope at first (easy enough fix). Stock is not quality, stock is hollow plastic.
This is my first pcp air rifle coming from a break barrel and let me say it's night and day different.. if you on the fence I would say go for it you won't regret it
Pros
Light weight, a tack driver, tunable for different pellet types, the side lever is butter smooth..I also love the trigger pull for me it's great..
Cons
Nothing
Nothing
Pros
Nice
Cons
Dangerous
Pros
Awesome air rifle. Very accurate and not pellet picky. In .22 cal it's capable of much better than the advertised muzzle energy. With JSB monster redesign 25.39 gr I'm getting around 43FPE
Cons
Magazines could be better
If you're on the fence, buy this thing. It will impress. And buy a nice scope.
Pros
Inexpensive, Accurate, and Adjustable. How can you go wrong? Was very impressed with accuracy out to 50 yards. Dime size group and I'm sure a better shooter could do better. Only 300 rounds all cheap Sig pellets, happy with purchase. Delivery was FAST.
Cons
Would be nice not to have to empty air to decrease regulator. As well as this gun shoots, I would pay more for a better trigger. I know many reviews compliment and this is my first "real" air gun, but shooting my friends Crown makes this trigger regrettable. I've tried adjusting, but a lot of creep and still stiff. It would be nice if you didn't need an adaptor to install a moderator as well. If we're wishing:-)
Question?
Login to ask someone who bought this product.Do you make it for left handed?
asked Christian 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 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 USADonnyFl Sumo I think
Owen from USAwhat silencer would you recomend for this rifle
asked Jon 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 USAsuggest a compatible scope
asked David 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 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
The 25 cal is the best
Pros
One of the best pneumatic rifles I have ever used, it works perfectly and unbelievably never leaks
Cons
Possibly a better magazine loading mechanism
