Page 3 - Colt SAA CO2 Pellet Revolver Reviews

They work as advertised .

The wax seals will fall out . Check them when moving them out of the pistol and back in . I put just a very small amount of super glue on mine , made sure they were dry before loading .

Work perfectly in the Colt SAA pistols. Flawless in appearance and functionality.

Nothing.

Order a bunch. They look good in your cartridge belt.

Well made and hold pellets securely.

Nothing.

A very desirable accessory.

Appearance, fit and functionality. These shell casings/pellet holders are a great idea and work exactly as advertised, you can buy a bunch of them and pre load them or leave them in the cylinder of the revolver and load the pellets directly into them. Either way they add significantly to the realism of the gun's operation. I also expect that they are sturdy enough to last for a fairly long time if properly used.

An option to purchase these in brass coloring would be great.

I have 36 of these that I use in a Colt SAA with the 7.5" (6.75" rifled) barrel. I have fired at least 2000 rounds through it so a minimum of 55 rounds fired per shell casing with no detectable wear as yet.

they hold my hollow points great

I would have bought more if I had money , I just altered my bb cases to fit the pellets you just have to make sure they clear the opening I guess.

don't play with guns like I do lol

The looks!

Nothing

The more the merrier!

Everything

Nothing

Dummy BB Cartridges look fantastic in double Holster Gunbelt.

Finish was good, they were uniform except a few had what appeared to be tool marks on the bore. I purchase 12 extra when I purchased two of the Duke Colt SAA CO2 revolvers.

I would inspect the bores after machining to ensure smooth on all. I would like to see a bulk purchase price reduction from the manufacturer.

I used the Air Ventri pellet loader, and seated the pellet just below the surface with the adjustable tool. UMAREX says to load them flush, and not further, but I found I had the best accuracy and consistency with them all loaded just a tad below flush. You will want to purchase more of these. I have 24 total for my two pistols, and I plan to purchase more. They will fit in the plastic 100 count .357mag boxes, but you have to stagger the holse due to the rims being bigger, so you can fit 50 in a 100 count box. I used Dillon Precision box. Seating the pellets at the same depth it seamed they went in easier on some than others. Didn't seem to make much difference in accuracy.

Quality is excellent hold pellets and fits Colt Peacemaker snugly.

Notning

Well made and easy to load.

None

Always good to have extra cartridges...less load time and more time shooting.

I like the fact that they really ARE different than the BB type. And I am EXTREMELY happy with the fit & finish of the things.

I would have them given away to us for free. Yup; that about sums up what I would change. :-D Or at least give them to we who have purchased the gun holster/belt combo. PA should at LEAST fill-up the loops on the belt; ONLY 36 needed!!! Okay, seriously speaking here, there is NOTHING to change, as they work very well. However, I really think it WOULD be a GREAT sales offer for something like "THREE DAYS ONLY! BUY BELT/HOLSTER FOR YOUR S.A.A. and get 36 shells to fill the belt loops! THREE DAYS ONLY!!!" Hey, I'm just sayin'. Heck, I would buy a THIRD set just to get the free shells, and NOW I can 'justify' HAVING TO BUY THIRD S.S.A.! WHAT A DEAL!!! Hey, just think about it, Mr. Ungier.

People, do NOT use the BB cartridges for the pellet firing gun. Oh, it will 'work', but the BB and the PELLET cartridges really ARE different. I THINK that the grommets for both the BB and the PELLET carts. might be the same size, HOWEVER_ when you push a pellet past the grommet, down a BB cart, you will find it will usually have a bit of stoppage as it gets near the tip, or narrow end. It will PUSH through, but I don't think it should be touching things. You do not have this happen when dropped down the PELLET cart. So there IS a difference, and it is for reasons I won't go into. It SHOULD be sufficient that I am letting you know to USE THE CORRECT CARTRIDGE for either your BB or PELLET firing gun. Oh, almost forgot! In the test that I did regarding shooting at targets, it really made a difference using the correct cartridge. I am not fibbing and I do NOT have ANY vested interest in telling you to BUY the correct items for your S.A.A. guns. Just do the right thing.

Like the nickel finish

I would like to see bulk packs of 30 in an old fashioned petiodcorrect box

You need more than six for sure

Silver bullets and you load them in the rear like you do the BB's.

I don't see anything to change.

Get a lot of them and keep them loaded and ready to go

They are nickel and look and feel great

Sell bulk boxes at reduced cost . Buying six is like a bag of six potato chips

Empty cartridge belts look bad. Posse up

They are highly polished and have nice weight. Machined perfectly to fit into the cylinder of my Colt .45 Duke .177 pellet revolver. I liked them so much I bought 8 packs (48) so I don't have to reload so much and I keep/carry them in a .45 reloading box.

Nothing; seems like a perfectly engineered product for its purpose.

Pellet is inserted easily into a flexible silicone (I'm thinking that's the compound) keeper within the base of the shell casing and works flawlessly. Now, having said that, life span of product is unknown but I believe it should provide a good service life. As a warning, you can put a pellet in backwards...as I did, so always check for correct direction. Correction was easy buy just pushing it out from the front of the shell case. It also pushed out the keeper which was returned back to the base of the shell case with no ill effect.

MADE VERY GOOD

NOTHING

GET SOME EXTRAS

It looks like these would work fine. I shoot cowboy action and wanted to use these cartridges with my holster and cartridge belt. These cartridges are advertized as 45 long Colt size however they are smaller and when used with the belt they fell right through the cartridge loops.

Increase the outside diameter to match that of a true 45 Colt.

Unfortunately the shells did not function like the six shells that came with the Colt Peacemaker Pellet Pistol. They would not fire. I tried seating them in the back from 1/8" to 1/4" and then they might fire but with no power. I inspected the shells and found that they had the same seating as the BB shells. It appears that the shells where made like the BB shells although the BB shells worked better in the pellet pistol than these shells. I had to return them. I hope the problem can be fixed so I can have extra shells that work like the shells that cam with the pistol.

I like the fact that the pellet loads in the rear of the shell.

nothing

I like that these shells fit into the BB Peacemaker Revolver as well as the Pellet version. I like that they are a different color from the BB shells. These Pellet shells are silver whereas the BB Shells are brass colored. The pellets seat very easily and neatly into the cartridges.

Nothing.

I bought these to try them out in my Peacemaker BB Revolver to see if they worked and they do. These Pellet shells appear to be slightly smaller in diameter than the BB shells, i.e. when you put them in the BB Revolver's Cylinder they appear a very tiny bit looser than the BB shells. (Maybe this is my imagination?) However, this made no noticeable problem when shot. The Pellets shot just as accurately as the BBs, which are quite accurate.
