Umarex Trevox Pellet Pistol

Can't believe that this great Umarex Trevox UX airgun was under $100! I had to send my $300 RWS Diana LP8 Magnum to get replaced for the third time in 12 years and bought this one as a backup. I can honestly state that the Diana LP8 is not three times better than the Trevox. In fact, the Umarex is a way better deal and produces predictable results of 510+ fps with Norma 8.2-gr spire point pellets and 555+ fps with the lower quality 7.7-gr Winchester spire points. Both lead pellets have enough velocity to be one shot pest stoppers and are totally deadly on tree rats and terrain rats out to 40'. What's not to like? Let's see how long it lasts.

Pros
Heavy and sturdy; fiber optic sights work great; accurate enough; fantastic deal for the $; decent velocity.

Cons
auto engage safety is nicer/safer, but will add to the cost. Cross bolt is okay, but you must remember to turn it on and off.

Velocity claims seem to be solid. Using a trio of lead pellets, here are the 10-shot averages using my ProChrono: - Winchester 7.65gr spire point 559FPS - RWS 8.2gr superpoints 509FPS - Daisy 10.4gr pirrhanna hollow points 412 fps

Pros
Simple, easy, adjustable sights, beefy (but not too heavy) and consistent velocity. Good balance and easy to handle. Cocking action effort isn't terrible. Grip is comfy and a great overall value with solid performance.

Cons
After initial efforts, I haven't been able to "micro zero" the LED open sights. The Trevox puts everything into a 2" box @ 35', but I can't seem to squeeze more consistent accuracy out of it. It's also louder than I thought and definitely more dBs than my Diana LP8 springer.

Saw this on sale at a local farm store and bought on a whim. Very accurate out of the box given I compensated for the heavy long creep single stage trigger. Put longer trigger screw in and made a big difference. Open sights are pretty good but I will be adding a dot site. Blueing leaves alot to be desired. In the right light, I can see some light surface rust. Kinda wish I had gone for the Benjamin Trail pistol. A little more power, and Crosmans blueing has always seemed really good. I would only plan on shooting very small pests with this if you want a humane kill. Squirrels would surely be laughing at you. Overall, a fun cheap plinker. Stick with the lighter weight pellets.

Pros
Accurate, fun plinker, price

Cons
Blueing is not the best, of course the trigger

This is a fun weapon with a good heft to it. Fairly quiet and a hard hitter. Pesky critters never knew what hit them.

Pros
Consistent power level. Better than multi pumps I have owned. My indoor 13yd range has a target, 2 ply cardboard,three inch deep box with plasticized heavy foam, a thick coconut fiber door mat on vinyl and finally 1/16" inch steel plate. Trevox .177 pellet puts a visible ding in the metal back. As to the 'hard trigger pull', after about four firings my trigger showed slack right to the break point and was controllable after that. After several firearms training schools, a shooter learns that no two weapons are 2.5lb triggers. But we are taught to compensate for the shooting of any weapon we have to use. That takes practice..... a lot of practice.

Cons
The rear sight adjustment was a little sloppy. Once the sight was zeroed, a touch of 'Lock Nut' did the trick.

Pros
Super accurate perfect for backyard plinking

We need this gun offered in .22 cal with a nice 800 fps. That would be perfect. Hatsan mod 25 supercharger in .22 cal shoots faster than this .177...that's just not right. I love shooting this greatly designed gun,easy to cock and can shoot all afternoon without getting too tired. Get one, you will really like it once you get use to it.

Pros
There is nothing not to like about this gun.

Cons
I know everybody complains about the trigger but it is up to the shooter to adjust to the gun, not the other way around. I find if I pull the trigger straight back with the pad of my finger at the bottom of the trigger blade I tend to get slightly better trigger control,not so much control if placing the finger in the curve of the trigger.

I'm old school and have decades of shooting experience,seems those griping about this bad trigger are overlooking 1 positive here, If you master a gun with a lousy trigger then you can shoot just about anything. And everything else about this gun is so good it is the perfect "bad trigger plinker" to practice with.Yesterday was the first time I shot my new Trevox and I could not put it down it was such a joy to shoot. Love plinking with this gun and did not even have to adjust sights,right on out of the box!!! Get one,you'll like it!!!

Pros
Everything but the trigger.

Cons
A smoother trigger with less travel and in a .22 cal with about an 800 fps would be really nice.

Power is awesome. Umarex is a trusted brand. Being a break barrel, it is very simple to use. Consider this gun for sure.

Pros
Look, feel, power, accuracy, build quality are all excellent. Don't disregard a break barrel pistol. This one is great. Trigger can be lightened by 50% by doing a trigger fix from YouTube videos. No c02 needed as well. I've tried 4 different pellets,b oth cheap and expensive, and have found that Crosman Destroyer 7.3grain pellets are the best at 10, 15, 20 and even 25 yards.

Cons
Trigger out of the box is very heavy. Weight. It is heavy. You can still shoot off hand but it definately requires support by your other hand on the barrel. Bag rested is the way to go.

I've gone through alot of cans of pellets. Gun is fantastic, especially after break in period and easy trigger fix. No problems at all. I shoot from 10 and 20 yards no problem. Crosman 7.3gr Destoyers work best for my gun after trying 4 different pellets. Great news, cheap at Walmart.

Pros
Everything.....really. Power, reliability, accuracy, feel, quality construction, cheap ammo works great. The simplicity and ease of a break barrel. Worth every cent to me. Dont dis a break barrel pistol.

Cons
Trigger. But there is a great trigger fix online that improves it by a good 30-50%. Gun is a bit heavy.

You can't go wrong buying this pistol . Accurate packs a punch and cocking is tough but not doable but it gets great power.

Pros
Great sights and sound suppressor works great. Pistol is super quiet. My new favorite pistol the grip is very comfortable and this thing is accurate as a laser.

Cons
Nine.
