Diana Chaser CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol Field Test Review

No Comments

Make sure to watch my Table Top Review for the Diana Chaser CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol if you haven’t already to get all the specifications and features along with some nice close up video. In this Field Test Shooting video I test out the Diana Chaser CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol to find out what the real world velocity is and also just how accurate it will be shooting a paper target from 30 feet back using a rested shooting position. Since the Diana Chaser CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol is a target pistol I was hoping for good accuracy but based on the claimed 525 fps velocity I was also hoping for close to 500 fps results.

First up I placed 4 shots through my Chronograph using a brand new CO2 along with 6.9 grain RWS lead pellets and got pretty close to 500 fps results averaging 490 fps, not bad considering the temperature was not super warm and I was using led pellets not hyper velocity alloy pellets.

Next I performed my accuracy test shooting at a paper target 30 feet down range with the Diana Chaser CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol rested on a sand bag up front and sitting in the back. Since the magazine holds 9 rounds I placed 9 round on the target to see what kind of grouping I could get. I was impressed to see a nice 1 inch grouping, maybe even a little bit less removing the paper tearing. Shots where vertically right on the mark and just a tad to the left but easily fixable with a quick tweak of the full adjustable sights.

The trigger feels pretty decent, not super light or to heavy , there is a little bit of take up and then a slight resistance then a quick release. The bolt action along with the 9 round rotary magazine worked flawlessly for me with no jamming at all. For the low price this CO2 Target Pellet Pistol comes in at you really can’t go wrong and if you want to modify or upgrade it down the road there are tons of things you can do to the Diana Chaser CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol. I highly recommend the Diana Chaser CO2 .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol if you are looking for a super affordable target pellet pistol.

Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol Table Top Review

No Comments

Type: Pellet Pistol
Manufacturer: Diana.
Model: Bandit
Materials: Wood and Metal, some plastic.
Weight: 2.2 pounds (1000 grams).
Total Length: 20.1 inches (51 cm)
Barrel: 9.5 inches (24 cm), metal rifled.
Propulsion: PCP.
Action: Bolt.
Ammunition Type: .177 & .22 Caliber pellets.
Ammunition Capacity: Single shot to 9 & 7 round magazines..
FPS: 725 (.177) - 630 (.22). Need to test for Canada import version

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol is single action only meaning in order to cock the internal hammer/striker, you need to cycle the bolt back and forth allowing for a short and light trigger action. It does come with a rotary multi-round magazine that allows for the cycling of the bolt to automatically advance a pellet allowing for much quicker followup shots.

Accuracy: At this point I have not personally tested the Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol in terms of actual power and accuracy but I expect the Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol to perform well since in fact this is a target pistol with fairly high claimed fps. In the next few weeks I plan on making my Field Test Shooting Video so stay posted for the results from that video for confirmation of the performance.

Build Quality: The Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol is made in China which might make you wonder about the overall quality of this target pistol but after taking a good look around and working all the mechanical parts I ma very impressed with the overall quality and chosen material that went into the production of the Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol. You will finds metal where you need it as in the barrel, bolt and trigger. The pistol grip are made of wood but you will find some portions of the sights are plastic but it would have been nice if they where all metal.

Realism: Realism isn’t really a concern with the Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol since it is not a Replica Airguns but in terms of looking like a gun it serves that purpose, no mistaken that so no waving it around in public or things may not turn out so good for you…

Pros:

  • Inexpensive fairly high quality full featured target pistol for the price.

  • Expect good accuracy!

  • Metal construction where it needs to be (Bolt, barrel, trigger).

  • Rifled barrel.

  • Fully adjustable sights.

  • Adjustable and light single action trigger.

  • Dove tail on bolt for adding optical sight.

  • Nice wood pistol grip.

  • Good for small pest control because of fairly high fps and expected good accuracy for shot placement ability.

  • Overall the gun feels really high quality for the price.

  • Even comes with a nice soft shell case.

  • Available in both .22 and .177 caliber pellet versions.

Cons:

  • Grips may be a bit too wide for smaller handed shooters.

  • Allen key does not fight the trigger adjustment.

  • Made in China.

  • Will need a pump or way to pressurize.

Comments:

For the price I don’t think you will find anything out there in terms of a PCP target pellet pistols with as many features as the Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol. At least in the lower cost price point Diana is offering it at. For that reason it is not going to be the absolute best all around PCP pellet firing target pistol you can get but I am sure bang for your buck you will be happy with this one. Everything about the Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol feels good quality, I would expect to pay at least double the price for something similar for sure. I have a feeling keeping the Diana Bandit PCP .177 Caliber Bolt Action Pellet Pistol in stock is going to be a challenge for us so if you see it in stock don’t take too long making up your mind or you may be in for a bit of a wait.

Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol Field Test Review

1 Comment

Make sure to check out my Table Top Video and Written Review for the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol where I go over the features and specifications along with some nice close up video.

In this Field Test Shooting Video I shoot the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol in my indoor Sea Can Airgun Shooting Range to see what the real world velocity is and also how well it will group shooting 10 rounds at a paper target 30 feet down range. I was using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s for my testing along with Propane Gas. The temperature inside the sea can was around 26 degrees Celsius (79 degrees Fahrenheit).

Because the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol coms with both a shorter internal barrel and a screw on extended barrel designed to be hidden inside a mock suppressor I thought it would make sense to test both the short and long barrels to see what the fps difference would be. With the short internal barrel I shot 4 rounds and average 255 fps. I then added the longer barrel extension again shooting 4 rounds but this time I averaged 363 fps so a good 100+ fps faster with the longer barrel attachment added to the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol.

For my accuracy portion of the testing I left the extended barrel on the gun but was a bit disappointed in my 10 shot grouping. The Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol did not get the tightest of groupings coming in at around 5 inches. It also shot a little bit to the right but vertically was fairly well centered. Perhaps changing up the barrels and lengths might make a difference?

I did really like the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol, it has a really light trigger that is a bit hard to find the release point, the blowback action is crisp but not overly heavy. I’m pretty sure the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is a VFC product so the quality is bang on. Other than the grouping being a little bit spread out I really liked everything about the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol.

Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review

No Comments

Type: GBB Airsoft Pistol.
Manufacturer: Cybergun
Model: FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical.
Materials: Metal and polymer construction.
Weight: 1.8 Pound (820 grams).
Barrel Length: 4.8 inch (12.2 cm).
Total Length: 8.9 Inches (22.6 cm).
Propulsion: Green gas or propane
Action: Single and double action.
Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB’s.
Ammunition Capacity: 25 round magazine.
Max FPS: 380 fps.

Trigger Pull: The Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol has a single and double action trigger setup. Both feel pretty good with a surprisingly light double action trigger pull, the blowback action will cock the hammer between shots allowing for the vast majority of your shots being single action which you will find are short and very light. There is a little bit of take-up followed by a crisp light release.

Accuracy: So far I have not made my Field Test Shooting Video for the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol. Keep posted for my upcoming Field Test Shooting Video for the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Threaded Barrel GBB Airsoft Pistol, until then I can not really comment on the shooting results.

Build Quality: The build quality of the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol feels really good, it has a nice weight to it and feels really solid in the hand. The materials used look good and have an excellent finish to them. There is just a bit of a slide wiggle but not excessive. You will find metal parts where you would expect them to be like in the slide, barrel components, magazine, slide catch release, take-down leaver, hammer and lots of internal parts.

Realism: In terms of realism the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is pretty much the spitting image of the real steel version with all the markings and licensing in all the right places. Mechanically everything works about the same including full field strip-ability with full ambidextrous controls.

Pros:

  • Build quality feels really good.

  • Full length blowback action.

  • Accurate licensed TFN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical replica.

  • Trigger pull is nice in both single and double action.

  • Picatinny rail for adding accessories like a tac light or laser.

  • Double stack full size drop out metal magazine holds the gas and 25 Airsoft BB’s

  • Comes with additional back-strap in smaller size for smaller hands.

  • White dot high rise front and back sights suitable for compensators.

  • Fully ambidextrous controls.

  • Easily Filed Strippable.

  • Tip is easy to remove for addition of a mock compensator.

  • Adjustable Bax Hop-up

Cons:

  • Sights are not adjustable.

  • Just a little bit of slide wiggle.

Comments:
The Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is a really great looking gun. The quality is on par with KWA and KJ Works in my opinion. I’m not sure who actually makes it as Cybergun is the license holder and distributer but I feel like the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol is a step up from the standard KWC gun often used as the base. I look forward to testing out the Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 Tactical GBB Airsoft Pistol in the Sea Can indoor Airgun Shooting range to see how it performs. I’ll be testing with the short barrel and with the barrel extension installed to see what the fps difference is between the two.

Cybergun FN Herstal FNX-45 and ASG CZ P-09 Blowback Airsoft Pistol Preview

Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun Field Test Review

No Comments

Make sure to watch my Table Top view for the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun where I take a closer look a talk about the specifications and go over the Pros and Cons.

In this Field Test Shooting Video I test out the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun to see what the fps velocity is when shooting in 3 and 6 round burst modes. I also shoot a target 30 feet away again in both 3 shot burst and 6 shot burst mode tor see what the accuracy and groupings look like.

Starting with the velocity performance of the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun. Using .25 gram Airsoft BB’s I placed several shots through my chronograph in 3 shot burst mode and averaged around 325 fps. When I switched over to 6 round burst mode the fps did not really change much averaging 321 fps. This was interesting since I thought adding Airsoft BB’s would slow the fps down but it did not.

I then setup a paper target 30 feet away to test out the accuracy or should I say grouping of the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun. I was not excepting any 1 or two inch groupings since the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is designed to shoot like a shotgun and spread out the BB’s to some degree. I did find that the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun out of the box shot a bit low but the front sight is adjustable for elevation so this is easy to correct. In both 3 and 6 round burst mode hitting the approximate 1 foot by 1 foot target was no problem and at this distance I would say the Airsoft BB’s spread out about 3-4 inches form each otters in both 3 and 6 shot burst modes.

Overall the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is a really fun Airsoft Shotgun to shoot. You get a lot of shots per green gas fill (around 100) and the fps is right on the money just over 300 fps both 3 and 6 shot burst. If you are looking for something a bit different then what most people are using on the field than the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun will for sure catch some looks.

Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun Table Top Review

No Comments

Type: Pump Action Shotgun.
Manufacturer: Jag Precision
Model: Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun.
Materials: Mostly aluminum metal construction.
Weight: 4 Pounds (1.8 kg).
Barrel Length: 11 inches
Total Length: 31 inches.
Propulsion: Green gas or propane
Action: Pump action 3/6 rounds burst.
Ammunition Type: 6mm Airsoft BB’s
Ammunition Capacity: 28-30 rounds per shell.
Max FPS: 350-400 fps.

Trigger Pull: Since the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is a pump action shotgun you will need to work the pump action to load rounds into the barrel and cock the internal firing mechanism. The tigger is then engaged as a single action only trigger. The trigger pull is short and light. You can also hold the trigger down and pump the action for quick repetition shooting.

Accuracy: So far I have not tested the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun but will be making my Field Test Shooting Video later this week. I have played around with the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun and it seems to shoot pretty hard and the multi-round shots group fairly close together.

Build Quality: The build quality of the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is excellent. Most of the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is made out of aluminum with only a few parts made out of plastic including the pistol grips, rear stock and perhaps the side saddle for holding the shotguns shells/magazines.

Realism: The Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is an awesome replica of a tactical fully tricked out pump action shotgun complete with AR accessories and rails for mounting whatever accessory you can dream of. Shells will not eject when pumping the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun since the shells are essentially the magazines holding up to 30 rounds each.

Pros:

  • Full metal construction (mostly aluminum)

  • Comes pretty much fully loaded, nothing really to add on unless you want to customize it.

  • Tons of shots per gas fill with expected good fps.

  • Fully adjustable and removable pop-up iron sights.

  • AR compatible pistol grip and but stock.

  • Multiple mounting points for a sling.

  • Side saddle holds 6 rounds, 2 more just in case can be placed in the magazine tube.

  • 3 or 6 round burst selectable.

  • The SPX2 comes in tan or black, lots of other options available.

  • Well priced for what you get compared to other gas Airsoft shotguns

Cons:

  • Does come with an orange tip but I am sure it can be removed.

  • Pump tube will show wear marks over time.

  • Will not be as accurate as an Airsoft rifle.

Comments:
The Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is a really cool product. So far I have not come across a Green Gas Pump Action Airsoft Shotgun so this was a real treat for me. The build quality and the realism of the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun is what I really like. It feels like a real shotgun and even performs much like one. Having the ability to shoot either 3 or 6 round bursts is also nice. If you want more shots per shell load then you can use the 3 round option, likewise if you select 6 round burst for more ammo down range with each shot. I like that the Jag Arms SPX2 Scattergun Green Gas Airsoft Shotgun comes pretty much all tricked out so you really don’t need to spend additional money on a bunch of accessories which adds a lot of value to this purchase.

SMG 22 Only Canada Legal .22 Caliber Full Auto Machine Gun

1 Comment

This is just my Preview for the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 .22 Caliber Full Auto Pellet Machine Gun. There will be more coming for sure for this one! Stay posted for my official Table Top and Shooting Videos later on.

I want to thank Drew from Tippmann Armory/Air Ordnance for sending me this unit for review. I have been wanting to get my hands one of these Air-Ordnance SMG 22 .22 Caliber Full Auto Pellet Machine Guns for several years now and super glad I happened finally :) I really don’t think there is any airgun out there like it. I am really hoping that we will be able to have this one in both our Canada and US Online Replica Airguns Stores.

So what exactly is the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 .22 Caliber Full Auto Pellet Machine Gun? It’s a PCP powered semi/full auto .22 caliber pellet firing Airgun and it is available in a Canada legal version that shoots just under 500 fps allowing it to be classified here in Canada as an unregulated Firearm. Unregulated Firearms do not require a license or registration and do not have to abide by the same rules that regulated firearms have to such as full auto limitations, magazine capacities and size limitations. So in other words if you want a full auto .22 caliber Machine gun here in Canada this is going to be your only option at least for now.

Some other cool features about the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 .22 Caliber Full Auto Pellet Machine Gun is the trigger setup, pull it light and quick and you get a single shot, pull and hold using medium force and you get full auto but not at a super high rate of fire. Press and hold the trigger down hard and you get full auto with a much faster rate of fire so you control the rate of fire by how hard you press the trigger down. Air-Ordnance SMG 22 .22 Caliber Full Auto Pellet Machine Gun also has an adjustment to set the maximum rate of full auto fire.

There are a few versions of the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 .22 Caliber Full Auto Pellet Machine Gun but they all share the same base components, gun just need to decide what add on you want to have with it. I am going to say make sure to get extra 100 round belts and a speed loader since the Air-Ordnance SMG 22 .22 Caliber Full Auto Pellet Machine Gun goes through a 100 round magazine fairly quickly!

Rx Target Systems Preview Video

No Comments

I want to thank David Bitkowski from Rx Target Systems for providing me with this sample unit to share with the Replica Airguns community. This video is only a Preview video as I wanted to get the RX Target System out there before I follow up with my actual Table Top and Shooting Videos for it.

For now here are some of the key points I want to get out to everyone:

Mission:
Rx Target Systems are meant to bridge the gap between firearms and airguns. They allow high precision shooting on a reactive, three- dimensional, rugged target that can be carted around in a back pack.  What makes Rx Target Systems unique is that it is a system. It is so modular and adaptable with interchangable faceplates and paddles. Rx Target Systems are not going to break or get dented or dissembled on the range as many of the lighter gauged steel targets on the market today vs today’s high powered airguns.

Modular 

  • One base allows interchange of faceplates for different target configurations 

  • One threaded axel allows interchange of paddle from 10 gauge to 3/8 inch-thick paddles 

Portable 

  • Mount it on a shelf indoors 

  • Mount it on a sawhorse outdoors  

  • Carry it in a backpack or duffle bag- its 10 pounds 

Rugged 

  • Solid steel design 

  • Faceplates from 10 gauge to ¼ inch thick 

3-Dimensional 

  • Faceplate is offset from paddles

Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle Field Test Review

1 Comment

The Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle is one that you are really going to want to take outside and set targets up around 50-60 feet await make it a little more challenging adn I do plan on getting outside with the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle in a bit once the weather gets a bit nicer and have some fun shooting at longer ranges. For now I wanted to at least get out my Indoor Field Test Shooting Video where I can Chronograph the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle and also see what it can do shooting at 30 feet out.

Sig claims the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle to shoot .22 caliber lead pellets at up to 700 fps with a power output of 12 foot pounds. Using 14.5 grain lead pellets I placed 6 rounds though my Chronograph and averaged 585 fps with the fastest shoot hitting 611 fps. Keep in mind there are much lighter lead pellets out there and when it comes to alloy pellets they drop in weight even more so hitting 700 fps with a light grain lead or alloy pellet is very realistic. What about Sigs claimed 12 foot pounds of energy? I did the math and using a 14.5 grain pellet with a maximum velocity of 611 fps, these numbers produce just a hair over 12 foot pounds! Mission accomplished :)

What about accuracy, I have seen a few claims online that the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle is not the most accurate Pellet rifle out there and you know what I don’t think that was the absolute intension when Sig thought this one up. After all it is a semi auto high capacity Airgun replica, not a target rifle. I still like to find things out for myself so of course I performed my accuracy test for the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle shooting 10 rounds into a fresh paper target from 30 feet back using a seated and rested shooting position. For this test I was using a red dot scope with a 3x magnifier on it. My first 10 rounds did OK producing just over a 1 inch grouping, not super great but most of the rods (8 of them) all struck the target within about 3/4 of an inch.

At this point decided to empty the rest of the magazine so about 15 rounds on the same target to see if the grouping stayed the same or maybe even speed out a bit. I was a bit surprised to find that my second 15 shot grouping all stayed within the higher 10 shot group again producing about a 3/4 inch grouping with just those two first test outliers? Maybe it was me, maybe it was the pellets, maybe it was the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle? The good news is you have 30 rounds to hit your target so even if a couple of them stray a bit you still got 28 left to get the job done.

The Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle is one of the coolest Air Rifles I have tested and now own, not only is it a great Replica Airgun but it also performs well and can be used for plinking or small pest control. All at even a fraction of the cost of shooting 22LR rounds and that’s not even that expensive compared to 9mm and larger ammo. Let’s hope Sig Sauer makes a detuned Canada version so we can offer it up in our Canada Replica Airguns Store and if you live in the US then checkout the US Store for Sig Sauer buying options.

Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle Table Top Review

4 Comments

Type: Pellet Rifle.
Manufacturer: Sig Sauer ASP
Model: Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP
Materials: Metal and Nylon Fiber build.
Weight: 7.5 Pounds (3.4 kg).
Barrel: 17.5 inch steel rifled.
Propulsion: PCP comes with an 3000 PSI 1100 PSI regulated (206 BAR) tank 213 cc.
Action: Semi auto with internal blowback. Single stage trigger single action trigger.
Ammunition Type: .22 caliber pellets.
Ammunition Capacity: 30 rounds belt fed.
FPS: Claimed up to 700 fps with 12 foot pounds of energy.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle is actually pretty light and smooth when you consider the first part of the trigger pull is used to advance the belt fed 30 round magazine. I was expecting more added friction from the belt but this does not seem to be the case. There is some internal blowback action going on but it is only used to cock the internal bolt/striker which does lesson the overall amount of trigger pull required. The trigger pull is fairly short considering all that is going on and it's not overly heavy so quick and predictable action shooting is more than possible with the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle.

Accuracy: So far I have not done my official Field Test Shooting Video for the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle but I did have the chance to put some rounds down range inside my 40 foot Sea Can and I have to say it shoots really hard, even rocking my metal 22LR Metal Target Trap that I was knocking the cardboard and targets right off of . Sig Sauer claims up to 700 feet per second I have no reason not to believe this. In terms of accuracy, I’m not sure just yet what to think since all I did was shoot standing up unrested just to get some basic sighting adjustments in with my optic sights. We will see how the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle performs when I make my actual Filed Test Shooting Video for it!

Build Quality: The build quality for Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle is very good, you can tell Sig Sauer had a lot of hands on in the design and production of this Pellet Shooting Air Rifle! The materials used and fit and finish are top notch and the mechanical function again is really good. I am kind of amazed at how well Sigs belt fed magazine design works in terms of feeding and operation. So far I have not experienced any pellet feeding problems or malfunction of any kind.

Realism: The Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle is a 1 to 1 replica of the real steel Sig Sauer Virtus Patrol model and looks absolutely the part other than the noticeable PCP tank where a standard stock would normally be. What are you going to do since you really can’t hide even a small PCP tank inside a But Stock? This is just something you will have to overlook in order to get the consistency and power from PCP over CO2 based Airguns. Everything else about the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle is pretty much bang on in terms of realism including a fully working ambidextrous selector, magazine release and drop out magazine, charging handle and pop up sights.

Pros:

  • My new best semi auto pellet rifle replica I have seen and shot to date.

  • Excellent replica of the real steel Sig Sauer MCX Virtus (Patrol) with the exception of the PCP tank.

  • Awesome build quality, lots of metal parts and the nylon parts are true to form and very solid.

  • 700 fps and 12 foot pound of energy makes it powerful enough for small pest control.

  • 30 round full size belt fed magazine has super high capacity and works flawlessly.

  • Full PCP Tank will deliver up to 150 shots.

  • Trigger feels good, not too long or to heavy and very consistent feel on every shot.

  • Pop up front and rear sights adjustable for windage and elevation.

  • Lots of possible rail options with add on M-Lok hardware

Cons:

  • Will require a PAL Firearms License in Canada but is considered a Iong gun so not restricted or requiring registration.

  • Internal blowback action does not advance the belt fed magazine but does cock the internal bolt/striker making trigger pull lighter.

  • Pumping up the 213 cc 3000 PSI tank is a workout for sure but does get you 150 consistent shots..

  • The PCP tank is a giveaway when it comes to realism but with the tradeoff of more shot power and consistency.

Comments:

Prior to the release of the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle the Sig Sauer MPX .177 Caliber CO2 Powered Pellet Rifle was my favorite pellet based replica rifle since there really was nothing like it out there with a drop out belt fed high capacity magazine. Now with the release of the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle I have a new favorite Action Shooting Replica Pellet Rifle and with its additional velocity and power it can even double as a small pest control Airgun. For this reason I’ve set my Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle up with a traditional red dot for close range vermin termination but I’ve also added a 3x magnifier for when those pesky critters think they can outsmart me by keeping their distance. Not so! It’s too bad our Canada gun laws make it so difficult to have an Airgun like the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP .22 Caliber Pellet Rifle if you are not a PAL owner, let’s hope Sig Sauer makes a slightly detuned version for the rest of the Canadian Market at some point.

Sig Sauer MCX Virtus PCP and ASP Super Target Pellet Gun Preview

No Comments

I have two new products from Sig Sauer Airgun devision to share with everyone here on the channel. They are both really different but I really like them both. Before I get into it I want to thank Sig Sauer for sending me both of these Airguns.

First up is the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus .22 Caliber PCP Air Rifle I showed y at SHOT Show this year. Well now it’s shipping and I have one :) At this time the only version of the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus .22 Caliber PCP Air Rifle is the 700 fps 12 not popguns version. This version is legal in Canada but you will need an unrestricted Firearms License since it falls under the definition of a non-centered fired long gun in the Canadian Firearms Act. Perhaps Sig Sauer will come out with a detuned version under 500 fps?

The Sig Sauer MCX Virtus .22 Caliber PCP Air Rifle uses a 13CI-3000PSI tank situated at the rear of the gun as part of the butt stock. You will need some sort of a pump or scuba pressurization system to refill the PCP tank which will get you up to 150 to 200 shots per fill up. The belt fed magazine holds 30 rounds which you can fire as fast as you can pull the semi auto trigger. By the way the trigger pull indexes the belt magazine while the PCP air pressure works the bolt allowing for a fairly smooth trigger pull. You will need to charge the Sig Sauer MCX Virtus .22 Caliber PCP Air Rifle before you start shooting.

The Sig Sauer MCX Virtus .22 Caliber PCP Air Rifle weighs in at 7.5 pounds, has a 17.5 inch barrel and a total length of 37.5 inches.

Next I show off the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pneumatic Precision Air Pistol modlelded after the Sig Sauer P210 Hadn't gun. The Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pneumatic Precision Pistol only requires 1 pump to get up to full FPS which is claimed bu Sig Sauer to be around 350 fps. I have a feeling that maybe it will shoot just a little bit faster based on my trial test shots. The Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pneumatic Precision Pistol has a full adjustable rear sight with a three stage single action trigger. Out of the box or should I say hard shell case the trigger feels really great. As expected with such a high end Match Grade Target Air Pistol you get real wood grips.

Stay posted for my Full Table Top and Field Test Shooting videos for both of these fine Sig Sauer Airguns.

Air Venturi SHOT Show 2020 Las Vegas Interview

No Comments

air-venturi.png

In this SHOT Show Las Vegas 2020 Interview Video Scott takes us through a range of new products from Air Venturi.

Scott and I talk about the Air Venturi TR5 and how it came about to fill the hole the Baikal MP-61 left behind. We also talk a look at some new Air Rifles, a pumper called the Butterfly with a super cool linkage based system that makes pumping a lot easier. A PCP side lever cocking Air Rifle that I’m not even sure has a name yet but will be available in .177 .22 and .25 caliber pellet for around $299 US.

The only Air Venturi replica we looked at is a new Springfield Armory under lever Spring Piston Air rifle modeled after the M1A. Last up Scott went showed us how the Bada Bang targeting system is shaping up and looks to be almost ready for production.

Umarex SHOT Show 2020 Las Vegas Interview

No Comments

This year at SHOT Show 2020 Mark from Umarex had a nice variety of new product to go over with us. Mark first went over the new CO2 Blowback Pellet firing Glock 17 which has a similar magazine and loading system as the Umarex SA10 Pellet Pistol.

We then took a look at another Glock replica, the Glock 18C Full Auto GBB Airsoft pistol with extended magazine, this one is sure to be a lot of fun with its selectable full auto feature and high capacity magazine. Perfect for hammering targets downrange or used as a very capable backup Airsoft pistol in the field.

Probably one of my favorites at the Umarex Booth this year was the Umarex Thompson M1A1 Legends Series CO2 Blowback Machine Gun. And yes it’s full auto capable along with blowback operation and a full size drop metal magazine that holds the CO2 and Steel BB’s. A nice addition to the Legends series of Pistols and Rifles.

Something really different this year for Umarex are the AirJavelin and AirSaber, two arrow firing rifles, the AirJavelin is CO2 powered and more tactical looking but still has more than enough power to shoot medium sized game, great for pest control while the bigger and (480 fps 178 foot pound) more powerful AirSaber is PCP powered and can be used for larger game like deer and wild bore. And it even looks like we will be selling these Arrow firing rifles in our Canada Replica Airguns Store with no PAL firearms license required!

Sig Sauer SHOT Show 2020 Las Vegas Interview

No Comments

This year Sig Sauer was showcasing their Airsoft Pistols with a new line called the Proforce series geared towards high end training. Sig has also included new Reflex Red Dot Sights that can be ordered already on the gun or as an add on accessory. The Proforce Pistol line includes both the M17 and M18 series Sig Sauer pistols.

Last year at SHOT Show 2019 Sig had introduced their Virtus .22 Caliber PCP Semi Auto Rifle but it was not ready at that time. Well now the Sig Sauer Virtus is ready to ship and yours truly will be getting one of these bad boys for review! Since the .22 caliber PCP Sig Sauer Virtus shoots around 700 fps with a 12 foot pound energy level you will need a PAL firearms license if you live in Canada but the Sig Sauer Virtus is a considered a “long gun” so no registration will be required in Canada.

Watch my Sig Sauer SHOT Show 2020 Las Vegas Interview for more info and cool stuff presented by Stephanie from Sig Sauer.

Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol Table Top Review

1 Comment

Type: GBB AIrsoft Pistol.
Manufacturer: Made by Tokyo Marui.
Model: Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R.
Materials: Mostly polymer with metal components.
Weight: 1.85 pounds (839 grams).
Barrel: 4.4 inches (112mm) metal non-rifled.
Propulsion: Green gas.
Action: Semi auto blowback, single action only trigger.
Ammunition Type: 6mm plastic Airsoft BB's.
Ammunition Capacity: 31 round drop out full size metal magazine.
FPS: Claimed 365.

Trigger Pull: The single action only trigger pull on the Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol is extremely nice, there is virtually zero take-up with a light and easy release. You can really hammer out quick shots with this Airsoft pistol. Other than the Tokyo Marui Strike Warrior .45 1911, one of the best 1911 triggers I have tested so far.

Accuracy: At this point I have not shot the Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol so I have no idea what the actual fps is and how accurate it will be but based on the reputation of Tokyo Marui Airsoft guns I have high expectations from the Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol when I perform my Field Test Shooting Video.

Build Quality: The Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol on the outside it is mostly all plastic (Slide and portion of the frame). That said the quality is fantastic, fit and finish is top notch everywhere and you will find metal parts where they need to be as in the inner and outer barrel, trigger, hammer, slide catch release, back strap safety, trigger group, magazine and many more internal parts.

Realism: The Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol is built on the Colt 45 1911 design but is obviously a more modernized and tacticle version of the classic 1911. The only factor that separates the Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol from that of a traditional 1911 in design is the lack of a barrel bushing which kind of makes field stripping and access to the Airsoft guns intervals a little bit easier. You still get that 1911 feel and awesome Single Action Only Trigger with your thumb safety and slide catch release in all the familiar places. Of course the Grip safety works as you would expect on a 1911.

Pros:

  • Light and crips flat faced SAO trigger feels great.

  • Fit and finish is excellent, next to zero slide wiggle.

  • Very cool looking tactical modernized 1911.

  • Direct Optic Ready removable rear sight to accommodate for included red dot mounting plates.

  • Optional under-rail plate included.

  • Full size high capacity 31 round double stack metal magazine.

  • Ambidextrous thumb safeties.

  • Working grip safety as you would expect on a 1911 based gun.

  • Most mechanical parts work just like a real steel 1911 and can be easily field stripped to access the hop-up.

  • Super fast blowback action, great for quick action shooting.

  • Decent 1.85 pounds weight considering much of the Airsoft gun is plastic.

Cons:

  • Mostly all plastic build.

  • Does not have the barrel bushing found on traditional 1911’s.

  • No white dots on rear sight.

Comments:

So far I have reviewed three of the Tokyo Marui Airsoft pistols and all three have impressed me. Even with a mostly plastic build at least externally in the slide and frames, these Airsoft Pistols still feel and shoot great even if they are a little on the light side. That may be a plus for some people who want a nice light weight side arm that is not weighing them down on the field. The plastic slides really cycle fast and are super snappy, when combined with short and light tirggers you can pop off rounds amazingly fast and on target. For the price I really think any of the Tokyo Marui Airsoft Guns would be a great choice. I do however have a soft spot for 1911’s and so for me the Tokyo Marui Hi-Capa 5.1 D.O.R GBB Airsoft Pistol would be my choice out of the three I have reviewed so far.
