You'll need an adapter to fill the reservoir with air. The type of adapter depends on how you plan to fill your gun. A scuba tank will require a different adapter than a hand pump or carbon fiber tank. If you use a hand pump, the type of adapter you need depends on the brand of hand pump you use. There are lots of ways to configure this gun- including rail-mounted accessories (coin-slot screws for each changeout). You can choose the scope, laser, flashlight, night vision equipment, extra tanks, quick-detach fiber-optic sights and attachments for the type of refilling unit you plan to use. If you replace the barrel with a longer one, the gun will not be silenced. Carrying an extra filled tank when shooting in the field is a lot easier than carrying a scuba or carbon fiber tank for refills. The .177-caliber Condor SS has a special tank valve spring. If you plan to attach other caliber barrels to your gun, you may want to buy a tank made for the other calibers (.20, .22 & .25 calibers use the same tank).

I love shooting this gun and highly recommend it to anyone considering a PCP in this price range.
PS. Some misspellings of proper terminology are due to robots who need better context filtering.
Pros
I have the .25cal SS version of this gun. It is a beautiful gun and impresses anyone who looks at it. Very solid construction and it has an excellent balance to it. The weight is nice and does not feel heavy after dozens of shots.
The power of this gun in 25 cal is amazing compared to my other guns of 177 and 22 calibers. It accurately delivers slugs as well as pellets. The barrel is well matched on bore size and puts clear visible rifle marks onto the projectile. The sound level on the SS is very reasonable, comparable to a medium sized pneumatic nail gun (zero neighbor complaints in our suburban area).
Accuracy has been great and very repeatable out to 30 yards in open fields. I added a Hawke 4-12 scope with the tall rings to get my feel right. My son and I shot side by side this Condor SS 25 against the GAMO Swarm 22 in the open with 10mph wind. The Condor had the additional speed to need only about 1 inch of correction at 30 yards. The Swarm needed 2.5 inches.
Cons
The loading of the gun is a bit awkward with needing to have a tin of pellets/slugs laid out along side your shooting area. I would love, love, love to have a 10 shot magazine, or even a pellet pen that worked with this gun.
Also, It would be great to have options for the shoulder/buutt pad. It's basically a flat plate with a thin rubber on it. It works, but an arched shape and softer pad would improve positioning on my shoulder (my GAMO Swarm 22 does this nicely).
Also, the literature mentions de-crocking the gun, but offers no instruction on it. The auto safety does not allow you to de-crock in the way the other Texan rifles do. This would be good to resolve, and append the documentation.
Was not impressed with the manufacturing, for the cost of the gun.
Would not recommend for first time buyer.
Pros
Made in the USA.
Does have power for a air rifle.
Accuracy is good.
Cons
Way overpriced, could have bought two good 22cal rifles, for same price.
Kind of awkward and slow to load.
Baffles don’t do anything, to quiet the gun. Was compared to non SS model, with meter.
Pros
Light weight and accurate
Cons
LOUD! If a 22 rimfire rifle is considered "back-yard friendly" this will do the trick. Don't be fooled by the reviews. This gun is very loud.
20% restocking fee. I'd rather keep the gun than pay a $165 restocking fee as a penalty for believing the claims of a quiet rifle.
I have shot well over 3,000 pellets with my Condor SS in .25 hunting Iguanas.... I am thankful I purchased this fantastic Rifle.......
Pros
Absolutely the most accurate PCP rifle I have ever used in .25
Cons
Absolutely Nothing.... A fantastic PCP Rifle.......
I expected a quiet rifle and was not disappointed at all. This rifle is no louder than a Daisy BB gun. Definitely "backyard friendly".
I purchased it in .25 cal to take small game since the .45 Texan just blows them to shreads. Adding some essential accessories makes this rifle even better.
I immediately added the Airforce bipod, two dovetail to weaver rails, a rubber grip sleeve to the pistol grip, a rubber buttcap on the "stock", sling swivels, and the UTG 2-16x44 AO Accushot Rifle Scope with the SWAT wheel. Incredible small game getter.
Don't hesitate to get this rifle if you're looking for something to take small game. I waffled on whether to get it in .22 or .25, and I'm perfectly happy with the larger .25 slug performance.
Pros
Quality build, precise fit and finish, great power.
Cons
I honestly can't think of anything.
This is the gun you want!
Pros
Lightweight, Damn near accurate every time, Quiet, and packs one Hell of a punch!!
Cons
I wish it came with a magazine
Love the gun and the power delivered with the .25 cal pellets. This gun has been a terror to the squirrels and other pest trying to do damage to my property, plus it is a blast shooting targets. Can't wait to take it to the next level and dispatch a few coyotes that prowl around my neighborhood.
Pros
Extreme power in a small package. Plus the ability to shoot in my backyard with no complaints from neighbors.
Cons
Had a little issue install my spin loc tank. Not sure why the factory doesn't just ship the gun with the tank installed.
I love my Airforce Condor more then doubles the range i can shoot with lethality. Just how far and how big of animals i can shoot working that out.
Pros
EZ to adjust power settings.
Cons
Single shoot
Powerful and quiet,Love it!!!!!
Question?
Login to ask someone who bought this product.Can you fill the tank with a portable air compressor?
asked Douglas from USAWhich power setting and slug weight is the velocity measured in .25?
asked Jackson from USADo any of the Air Force Airguns have a Magazine loading system ?
asked Scrambler82 from USADose the cinder as come in different colors
asked Richard from USAIs there a 24 inch SS barrel for a 25 cal Condor?
asked Rober Mack from USAThere is no stock gun with a 24 inch ss barrel. But you can get a 24 inch ss barrel on the airforce website and install it very easily.
Jackson from USAWill this chassis accept hard sights ? I do use Scopes but prefer Open Sights !
asked Scrambler82 from USADo they make a magazine for the condor rifle?
asked Frank from USAHow many shots are you guys getting per fill?
asked Matthew from USAIt all depends where you have it set in your power wheel. I have mine set @ 6-6 with JSB Heavy King 34gr pellets flying @ 950fps and I get about 10 good shots when filled 2,800psi. I finish the 10 shots about with about 2300psi. You figure 50psi per shot.
Santiago from USAI recently purchased one of these models and I was wondering what is the decibel ratting for this cal. The one I purchased seems quite noise for an air version. It is almost as load as my 10-22 riffle. So can someone please help me with this question as I am not really able to shoot this even where I live without bothering the neighbors.
asked Jon-Paul from USAI did the math if your pellets are going 1100 FPS that means you are just beyond the sound barrier which means you will get a sonic boom which can be fixed by using heavy pellets or toning down your power
Pete from USAI just recently purchased The Escape SS ,in 25 cal. and the report to me is low at a setting of about 6. I sounds a tad louder than a 22 CB short. I don't have a sound meter to measure.. You would think the 22 cal with the longer barrel would be quieter than the 12 inch 25 cal. Try shooting at a lower setting and use heavy pellets. I am thinking of purchasing the Condor also. Ron
Ronald from USA
Add a great scope along with a serious base.... If you do your job it will do it's job.
Pros
Absolutely everything. Fantastic trigger/ power and accuracy.
Cons
Absolutely nothing.... One shot!
