The Umarex Gauntlet has an incredible amount of features for it's price tag. Many of which are usually only found on much more expensive rifles. The Gauntlet is a rotary mag fed rifle that will allow quick follow-up shots. You can fill the 210cc bottle to just over 200 bar (3,000 psi) and receive 60+ consistent shots due to the on board regulator that allows for precise airflow shot after shot regardless of how much air you either have or don't have. The other upside to the regulator is that you don't need to fill your rifle to the full 3,000 psi full fill. So using your hand pump you can just pump it up to 2,000 psi, still get 20-30 full powered shots before needing to refill your air. This is a great option!
Other features include an all-weather ambidextrous synthetic stock with built-in sling swivels. A foster quick disconnect fill port to the on-board air cylinder. An adjustable comb on the stock to help gain the perfect cheek weld. And the barrel is fully shrouded to reduce the rapport and sound of the Umarex Gauntlet making the rifle backyard friendly as well as hunting friendly. Truly the Gauntlet punches well above its weight and delivers a lot of rifle at a great price. And with this starter combo you can have everything you need to enjoy years of shooting with your Gauntlet PCP air rifle. It's time to get off the fence and see why everyone is falling in love with PCP air guns.

Cons
not a walking around gun
The MK4 pump and Mantis scope are outstanding but the tank on the rifle leaked air pressure ,as much as 500lbs overnight when pumped to 3000lbs When still in the rifle but When removed held air just fine.Rifle shoots great but is back to Umarex for Warranty repair of leak. Can`t wait till it comes back ....
Pros
Straight shooter Real Tack Driver
Cons
Leakey Tank
The Gauntlet is my first experience with a PCP. Out of the package, set up was easy. Then comes the getting to know you stage. Everything with the gun went well, the air tank was all new to me. The thing that throws me off the most is the gauge, it really doesn't move until I totally discharge it. There is no red, green or yellow on it to tell when to refill. I have learned that after 60 rounds, I hook it back up to the pump and fill it back up to 3000psi. All said, I would tell others to buy it and I like the way it shoots, Dead On.
Pros
Ten round clip, and 60 shots before refill
Cons
gauge on the air tank
I received my combo and un-boxed everything. the scope mounted very easy. The pump went together with ease. When I tried to pump up the bottle the quick connect fitting on the bottle leaked. I contacted Airgundepot, and was told on Friday I would have to return the complete rifle for a new one, well being the technician that I am I removed the leaking nipple, the surface that seals inside the nipple was ruff, I put some Meguiar's Plastx plastic cleaner/polish between the sealing surfaces and used my power straight blade driver to spin the pieces first clockwise then anti-clockwise about 2 minuets each, then cleaned the Meguiar's out and assembled the valve/nipple into the bottle. That cured the leak it now holds 3000 + psi. I set up to sight in the scope I took off the outer shroud to use a red laser bore sight, dropped the crosshairs right on the red dot at 10 yards scope set to 10 yards, and using the bench rest the rifle hits pellet on top of pellet, off hand I hit a 1/2 inch group.
Pros
Accurate and easy follow up shot with the 10 round mag, I got 40 pellets on 3000 psi. Airgundepot was quick with wanting me to return the rifle, I however waited over 5 weeks to receive this one and did what I need to so I could keep and use this one.
Cons
Weight is heavy for a .177, had to fix the leaking fill valve is the only reason I gave 4 stars.
I too spent lots of time researching which pcp would be the way to go for a decent price. And it's just my luck that I've stumbled across this right when I've decided o buy another gun. I'm more of a small game hunter. I own a ranch and, as you know, there's lots of pest there. I already own a Benjamin marauder and loved it, actually wanted to buy another one. But I saw this and said, YES! I just received the gun,cleaned it, and put a few shots thru it. I was really pleased with the accuracy, it's just like how the videos showed. I also liked how you can change the air tanks. Only problem was the SLOW "rear end" shipping and the quality of the rifle is a little on the low side. The bolt is very hard to cock, the trigger is semi alright, but leaning more towards the bad side, the magazine is hard to put in, it' kind of heavy, and the stock is kind of cheap. So the accuracy basically substituted for quality. I would defiantly recommend this to someone who is looking for a cheap, dependable, and accurate rifle. That is, if they don't mind giving up some of the smaller luxuries such as a good trigger and bolt.
Pros
Very Accurate
Cheap
Changeable air tanks
Regulated
Cons
Bolt is heavy to cock
trigger is ok but leaning more towards the bad side
magazine hard to put in and out
kind of heavy
stock is kind of cheap
Ive watched countless videos on every single air rifle i think available today. I'm a break barrel guy and wanted to take the plunge into Pcp world but didnt want to drop 1200 if I didnt have too. I've seen the reviews of this gun and it outperforms all in its price range. Trust me ! Ive spent weeks watching reviews for the perfect gun and for the money this is it.
Cons
They keep back dating the release date.
For the price this is a good deal. I have been looking at PCP air rifles for a long time but the cost of them has been out of reach for me. This was a good deal to get started in the PCP world.
Pros
Came with a good scope and rings. Has a good single stage trigger that can be adjusted.
Cons
The barrel has no support, and floats around way to much witch causes you not to be able to keep it sighted in. Umarex needs to fix this problem, and offer to their customers who bought one a modification to fix this problem.
