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.

Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle Field Test Review

No Comments

Make sure to watch my Table Top view for the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle where I take a closer look a talk about the specifications and go over the Pros and Cons.

Umarex claims the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle will perform with 30% faster and farther shots than a similarly styled rifle. If you look up the average speed of a Nerf Gun on Google, Wikipedia says that it is a around 70 fps and Umarex claims 90+fps. I placed 7 shots through my Chronograph averaging 127 fps, the slowest shot was 100 fps and the fasters shot was 148 fps do a fairly big spread. faster shots hitting close to 150 fps will hurt so be careful!

Next I wanted to see if the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle can actually hit a person sized target at around 30 feet which I feel would be about the max distance you would be shooting the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle as you will probably using it indoors or outside but in close proximity. My paper target is about 1 foot by 1 foot in size which is around the same size as a human torso. If I can hit that from 30 feet then I should be able to hit a person. The Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle was able to reach out 30 feet no problem but during the last 10 feet the Nerf style darts did seem to veer off target. I was able to get some of the darts on target but found that at 20 feet it was way more consistent. So try and get in a bit closer if you want to be more sure of placing an accurate shot on target. By the way the dart will travel as far as 150 feet.

The Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle is for sure a step up from a standard Nerf rifle in terms of power, distance, quicker reloading and especially when it comes to realism as the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle looks like a traditional AR Rifle rather than a toy gun like most Nerf gun designs. I figure why not grab a couple Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifles for when you get bored around the house.

Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle Table Top Review

1 Comment

Type: Nerf Type Gun.
Manufacturer: Umarex
Model: REKT OPFOUR.
Materials: Mostly plastic build with some internal metal parts.
Weight: 1 pound 8 oz (680 grams).
Length: 30 inches (762mm).
Propulsion: 12 gram CO2 x2.
Action: Pump single action.
Ammunition Type: Nerf type foam darts.
Ammunition Capacity: 12 rounds.
Max FPS: NA. Claimed 30% faster and 30% father than standard similar type Nerf spring pistols.

Trigger Pull: The trigger on the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle is what you would expect form a single action only trigger. Very little take up with a crisp light release. When you pull the Free Grip back you are working the pump action which loads a dart into the breach and at the same time cocks the internal hammer/striker.

Accuracy: I haven’t performed my Field Test Shooting video for the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle but I can say after play around with it I expect it to shoot a lot harder than 90 fps. When the dual CO2 system is fully charged I was getting some pretty ferociously fast shots form the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle. I would say it was even able to shoot out into my yard at least 150+ feet. I was even a bit concerned shooting the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle inside my house as it is possible to dent walls with the Nerf Darts. IN terms of accuracy it seems pretty good but I will know more once I have made my Field Test Shooting Video later this week.

Build Quality: The Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle is built pretty much exactly like other Umarex all plastic CO2 BB guns and that’s a good thing since they are pretty much bullet proof. I would even go on record to say the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle is built better or should I say stronger than a Standard Nerf gun in terms of plastic thickness and even the fit and finish is very good.

Realism: One big advantage over most Nerf Guns is that the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle looks a lot more like a real gun, it’s about the same size, has the same feel and looks a lot like a modern AR Rilfe other than the bright coloring going on. Ergonomically speaking the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle would make a much better trainer than a Nerf gun since it is close to a one to one scale replica.

Pros:

  • No need to work a spring before each shot because of the CO2 power source.

  • More power and range than a traditional Nerf Gun.

  • More realistic looking than most Nerf Gun.

  • Like an Airsoft Gun but more usable indoors and less chance of injury.

  • Rear Peep sight is removable and can be swapped out.

  • Has a working selector switch safety.

  • Uses Standard Nerf Foam Darts.

  • Picatinny Rail top and sides for adding on accessories.

  • Dual CO2 system for extended shooting time before changing.

  • A great option for having some indoor fun!

Cons:

  • Will require CO2 x2.

  • May actually be a bit too powerful and can cause damage or injury if not careful?

  • More money than a traditional similar type Nerf rifles.

Comments:
The Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle may be the ideal indoor fun Nerf styled rifle right now while we are all staying at home a lot more these days. Sure you could use a standard Nerf Gun but having a CO2 powered AR-15 looking Nerf gun is way cooler! I like that the Umarex REKT OPFOUR CO2 Foam Dart Rifle is more realistic looking then a traditional Nerf Gun, perhaps the perfect intermediary gun if you want something between a Nerf Gun and an Airsoft Gun? If you’re interested in a pistol version of the REKT line of Nerf Dart shooting guns then checkout the REKT OPSIX.

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 

  • Clipping the aperture does not guarantee a score 

Intentions of target configurations 

  • Standard 1 inch bulls.- represents kill zone of many small game at 30 yards, great for sighting in prior to the hunt. Also is ¼ scale of bull used in rapid fire pistol when shot from 8.3 meters. (25 meters distance/100mm bull) 

  • 1.2 inch bulls- represents the 4-10 ring of the NRA 10 meter air rifle target. Gears the shooter to consistently hitting the “black” of that target on paper 

  • AAFTA style- represents common kill zones found in American Airgun Field Target Assosciation using 1.5”, 1”, ¾", ½", and 3/8”.  

  • WFTF style- represents common kill zones found in World Field Target Federation using 15mm, 25mm, and 38mm apertures 

  • 10-15- Inspired by customer request, uses 10mm and 15mm apertures.  High-Precision shooting.

Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol Field Test Review

2 Comments

The expectation is going to be high with the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol since it is called the “Super Target” right! In terms of 350 fps well I guess it’s not really anything to wright home about but for a target pistol this velocity is more than enough. What matters most is consistency of each shot as that can effect the trajectory which in tern will effect the elevation of each shot. At the end of the day with a Target Shooter like the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol what I’m really looking for is consistency.

Let’s start with the Chronograph portion of my Indoor Field Test Shooting Review for the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol. Sig Sauer says I will get around 350 fps and spoiler alert I got exactly 350 fps shooting a 3 shot string. I only shot 3 rounds since all shots where very close together at 353, 347 and 350 fps. Remember what I was saying about consistency, that’s pretty consistent. I was using Sig Sauer Wad Cutter Lead pellets for all of my testing and since the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol is not a CO2 Airgun room temperature was not a factor.

Moving on to the accuracy portion of my testing for the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol. I was originally going to shoot 10 rounds but decided to go with 5 since between shots I need to open the Airgun, place a pellet in the barrel and then close and cock the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol. I then need to reset my hand position on the sand bag and place another shot on target. All of this really breaks up the shooting rhythm which makes it a bit harder to be as consistent when compared to simply pressing the trigger between shots. I was shooting 30 feet away from my paper target using a seated and rested shooting position. It’s kind of hard to say exactly how tight my grouping was since the paper ripped a bit but looking back later at the video I am pretty sure all of the shots where pretty much on top of each other getting under a 1/2 inch grouping. The ripping of the paper made it look like the grouping was larger than it was.

All in all the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol is a very consistent and accurate Single Pump Pneumatic Target Air Pistol that I would agree with lives up to the name “Super Target”. Make sure to also checkout my Table Top Review for the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol where I go into the details and specification for the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target.

Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol Table Top Review

No Comments

Type: Pellet Taget Pistol.
Manufacturer: Sig Sauer ASP
Model: Sig Sauer ASP Super Target
Materials: Metal and Wood build.
Weight: 2.1 Pounds (953 grams).
Barrel: 7.5 inch steel rifled.
Propulsion: Single-shot over-lever single-stroke pneumatic.
Action: Single action 2-stage adjustable trigger.
Ammunition Type: .177 caliber pellets.
Ammunition Capacity: 1 round.
FPS: 350.

Trigger Pull: The single action only trigger pull on the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol is fantastic right out of the box. I personally felt no need or desire to tamper with it as the trigger is crazy short and very light. That said if you feel the need to play around with the trigger adjustments you can as the ASP Super Target has a 2-stage adjustable trigger.

Accuracy: So far I have not done my official Field Test Shooting Video for the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol , I did crack a few free standing shots down range in my Indoor Airgun Sea Can Shooting Range and was impressed with not only the trigger feel but how peppy the ASP Super Target felt. Sig claims a 350 fps velocity using lead .177 caliber pellets but I got the feeling they may have been moving faster than that? In terms of accuracy I was not shooting rested so it’s hard to say but I am expecting the Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol to be a tac driver for the price that you will pay for one!

Build Quality: The build quality for Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol is good, it feels solid and well made, the finish is also good but I did notice a slight casting imperfection on the front sight. I have found with Italian made Airguns they can sometimes have a few finishing flaws but overall they are mechanically very well made which is more important at the end of the day, but still for just under $500 Canadian I think this Precision Target Air Pistol should be near perfect!

Realism: The Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol is designed after the Sig Sauer P210 9mm Pistol with some liberties taken to accommodate the single-stroke pneumatic internal pump and reservoir. For this reason it is not exactly a 1 to 1 scale replica of the Sig Sauer P210 but it is fully Sig Sauer licensed and looks close enough for what it is at the end of the day.

Pros:

  • Pretty much all metal and wood construction.

  • Fully adjustable rear sight as you would expect from a precision target pistol like this one.

  • Light 18 pound single-stroke cocking effect.

  • Sig Sauer Lisenced.

  • Made in Italy.

  • Comes in a nice hard shell Sig branded case.

  • Single action trigger is fully adjustable and feels amazing.

  • Claimed fps of 350 felt to me to be conservative, maybe we will see a little bit more out of the ASP Super Target?

  • Ambidextrous design suitable for left and right handers.

Cons:

  • A bit on the expensive side so it may be out of budget for some.

  • Not a true replica which is kind of expected as this is not a CO2 based airgun.

  • I found loading pellets in the barrel a bit tuff as it is recessed and harder for large fingers to access but loading got better as I used it.

Comments:

The Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol is not going to be for everyone as it is on the high end and out of the price range of most. If you do have the budget for a high quality Precision Target Air Pistol and you are wanting it to look more like a traditional Real Steel Gun rather than an Air Target Pistol, then The Sig Sauer ASP Super Target .177 Caliber Pellet Pistol is probably the most authentic looking option out there. I am really hoping it performs amazing during my Field Test Shooting Review so we can all justify the kind of up there price 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.

Testing the DJI Spark While Shooting Some Airguns

No Comments

This test of the DJI Spark Mini Drone was to make sure I could use it in the way I intended for it when I am outdoors and want to get that nice higher up flowing camera angel you can only get form a drone.. The method I use in this video doesn't even require a remote control or smartphone and I can have it take off right out of my hand.

I then use hand gestures to control the DJI Spark Drone to do things like: Place the drone in the right starting location, make the DJI Spark start recording video, have the Spark zoom up and out from me for an "eye in the sky" aerial follow me mode and then of course when I am finished what I want it to record have the DJI Sparkreturn to me and land again on my hand. Again all of this without even taking the remote out of the box or even using a smartphone to control the DJI Spark Mini Drone!

Watch me test out the DJI Spark Mini Drone in my backyard while I shoot some of my Airguns at miscellaneous targets while I walk around and have the DJI Spark follow me while recording video.

Caldwell Ballistic Precision Chronograph First Field Test

No Comments

I am happy to say that the first Field Test using my new Caldwell Ballistic Precision Chronograph  went really well for me today. Perhaps I have found a new brand of Chronograph that will last longer than a year or so and give me reliable results that I can count on...

In my testing I tried out four different airguns, I picked airguns for the most part that I have not done Chronograph testing with yet so I could at least get you some hard results for these new guns waiting for their Field Test Shooting Video Reviews. First I tested the Umarex Glock 19 4.5mm Steel BB Pistol and I got five results out of five shots averaging 389 fps. Next up was the AW Custom AG-HX2003 Double Stack Tactical 1911 Full Blowback CO2 BB Pistol, again a put five shots through my Caldwell Ballistic Precision Chronograph and got five good results with an average fps of 329.

I then moved on to an Air Rifle, the Crosman DPMS SBR CO2 Blowback BB M4 Rifle and placed six shots through my Caldwell Ballistic Precision Chronograph resulting in five good readings, there was one error in this string of shots but it may have been an alignment issue on my part? My average fps for the Crosman DPMS SBR CO2 Blowback BB M4 Rifle was 387. Last of the guns I tested was the Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol which is a single pump airgun. My pellet choice was RWS 6.9 grain lead pellets and all three of my test shots delivered near exactly the same results averaging 374 fps.

So other than that one chronograph reading error for the day which may have been an alignment issue on my part, the Caldwell Ballistic Precision Chronograph performed excellent for me. I would also like to note that I was using the same Caldwell LED Lighting System I have been using in my Sea Can Indoor Airgun range which as expected fit perfectly onto their own Chronograph system and worked well.

Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol Field Test Review

No Comments

When it comes to accuracy, match grade pellet pistols are going o be your best bet, not always the most powerful but they are sure good at driving pellets down range with super small groupings. The Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol is no exception to this statement and considering all that it offers it is fairly reasonably price for a match grade pellet pistol of this caliber.

Right off the bat I have to admit that my Chrony Chronograph stopped working, all I get is gibberish on the screen (Strike two for Chrony!). So I was not able to get any personal Chronograph results even though I even tried using my Airsoft Chronograph without success :( I did however watch a few other Youtube Video reviews where users tested out the FPS using a similar Chronograph and the Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol should get right around 390 fps using 7 grain lead pellets, this is close to the 400 fps claimed velocity.

Now for my shooting results that I was able to deliver on... I shot about 6-7 rounds downrange on a fresh paper target setup around 30 feet away. Sitting with a sandbag up front for stability, my Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol shot 6 out of the 7 rounds all in one hole that stretched out to about 1/4 of an inch. I did get one flyer that extended the grouping to about an inch, but this gun is a accurate no doubt even with my limited shooting skills.

The Trigger, sights and even the pistol grip on the Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol are fully adjustable so you can setup your Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol pretty much any way you like but it is made for a left handed shooter, at least the one I had tested out. The trigger is very light weigth out of the box and should be good to go for most people. It's also nice that you only need one pump for full power which saves you a bit of time in-between shots. All in the Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol is a great well priced match grade target pistol ready to drive virtually anything you point it at!

RWA M1919 AEG Airsoft Machine Gun vs F-1 Shooting Chrony

No Comments

Watch and see what happens when you take an RWA M1919 AEG Airsoft Machine Gun and put it head to head against the all metal F1 Chrony Chronograph. That's right, my old temperamental Chrony F-1 Chronograph meets its first opponent! Did it survive or did it bow to the hail storm of 6mm Airsoft BB's...

Cybergun KWC Desert Eagle .50AE CO2 Airsoft Pistol Full Auto Fun Video

No Comments

Video number three in my Summer Full Auto Fun Video Series! In this outside shooting test I take out my Cybergun KWC Desert Eagle .50AE CO2 Airsoft Pistol and shoot it in full auto mode again at some water filled pop cans and clay pigeons setup about 25 feet down range.

Since I pretty much took my Cybergun KWC Desert Eagle .50AE CO2 Airsoft Pistol right out of the box and started shooting I did not have the chance to set the hop-up or even figure out exactly where it was shooting and as I found out it was shooting rather high and the .20 gram BB's may have been a bit light since they seemed to spray all over. Either way I did manage to hit a few targets after eating up all the CO2 and shooting off two full mags of Airsoft Ammo...

Umarex Beretta Mod. 92 A1 CO2 BB Pistol Full Auto Fun Video

No Comments

Last summer I made some "Full Auto Fun" videos and well... I had a lot of fun making them and of course shooting the full auto airguns. So I got to thinking I should make some more Full Auto Fun videos again this summer, at least for some of the new Full Auto guns I have not made these videos for yet.

So to kick it off, I brought out my Umarex Beretta Mod. 92 A1 CO2 BB Pistol and shot up some clay pigeons and water filled cans in Full Auto Mode of course :)

BB Guns Shooting at Longer Ranges

2 Comments

I often get asked about using a 4.5mm Steel BB gun for pest control and to be honest I really don't think a BB gun is the right tool even at close range to properly and humanly take care of pests when need be. A much better tool is a high powered pellet rifle in just about any caliber as long as you have taken the time to practice your shot placement at a variety of ranges.

Pellets on the other hand, since they are shot out of a rifled barrel are generally super accurate, even within an inch or so at long ranges. Steel BB's on the other hand will do OK within 20-30 feet but once they get to the farther out ranges, they tend to drift a lot, making it very hard to predict exactly where they are going to go...

So I thought I would back up my words with a real world test by taking an average mid priced BB rifle and taking aim at some clay pigeon targets setup about 100 feet away. Watch my YouTube video to see how my Umarex Steel Force did shooting in semi auto at 100+ feet out.

Umarex Steel Force Used for this Test:

  • 12 gram CO2 x2

  • 4.5mm Steel BB's

  • AR/M16 Replica

  • Semi auto & 6 Round Burst, Single Action Only

  • 300/30 Round Hopper/Magazine

  • 430+ FPS

  • Plastic with some Metal Construction
