    Overall rating:5

    Value for money:5

    Accuracy:5

    By Batman from USA on 2007-11-15 23:01:03

    Things I liked:Good quality, accuracy and simple operation. Nice trigger as well. Overall fit and finish very good. Tough to really tell the difference between the HW40 and the P3. I have owned both. Not sure what value-add Beeman provides.
    Things I would have changed:I would add a little weight to it and offer aftermarket grips or over grips for better in hand performance.
    What others should know:I have owned the HW40 in .22 which is cousin of the P3. I also own a HW75, HW80 and a P7 which are all excellent airguns. Also, excellent sales and support from Pryamyd Air - Thank you ! 'I will be back' for more great stuff.

    Value for money:2

    Accuracy:4

    By Mark from USA on 2009-01-12 17:13:58

    Things I liked:Sights, accuracy and "feel". Trigger is very good and the metal construction should provide good durability.
    Things I would have changed:Used it for a few days then gave it away. Not easy to load, not very powerful. The same "rant" I have concerning the P1. With Beeman's eagerness to make an air gun look like a firearm there are just too many compromises. Hard to cock, difficult to load, all as a result of trying to make an airgun look like something it is not. My Beeman Tempest is a much better design. Easy to cock, easy to load and it looks like what it is... an air pistol. I don't expect this to be published, as my review of the P1 was not, for the same reasons. Replicas should be limited to C02, this would not degrade the function. If you must have a Beeman, I'd buy the P1. Easier to load and more powerful, even if it looks like a Colt 1911 with some kind of serious bloating of the receiver.
    What others should know:I would pass on the P1 and P3 and buy the RWS P5. Great sights and trigger, more power and very easy to cock and load. There will be complaints that it looks like an air pistol....fine by me. Form should follow function. If I want a firearm I'll buy one, rather than a "replica" that looks like a mutant copy. One downside... the RWS P5 does not provide a rail to mount a scope. Hopefully, RWS will come out with a scope mountable version. I would buy it at once.

      Things I liked:An very accurate pistol. Try different pellets to see which is best, mine likes RWS R-10 Match 7 gr. and Meisterkugeln 8.2 gr. Is hard to cock but accuracy makes up for it. Right amount of power for 10 meter.
      Things I would have changed:Nothing, each air gun is different.
      What others should know:I picked the P-3 over the P-17 because where is was made.

      Things I liked:This is my first air gun and after 500 or so rounds I can say that I am very pleased with it. It is solidly built, has a very crisp trigger, great sights and a very comfortable grip. Its accuracy is amazing with just about any pellet I have tried. I highly recommend this gun and would purchase one again if needed. Agreat by for th money.
      Things I would have changed:Nothing.
      What others should know:I suggest using a pull through for cleaning the barrel as you can not use a cleaning rod from the breach end and cleaning from the muzzle is a good way of damaging the rifling at the very end of the barrel.

      Things I liked:I like the price and the overall quality. I wish it would last though! Seems to feel like a steel replica gun . I like the grips . Excellent gun overall... if it works a long time! Mine is still under 40 shots and seems weak, too soft. I do not have a chrony. Compared to my other guns , it is quiet. Very quiet, and is a blast to shoot anyway due to it's grip and balance.I like the sights too.
      Things I would have changed:quality, make it able to be rebuilt?
      What others should know:I see the air chamber is presed together. I suspect the German one is better built in many ways and is worth it. I can see that the hinges could be built better, and still I like this gun! Hard to load as you must fit your finger inside the barrel+/slide at some point to load the pellet. I have big hands and can do it. No real problem.

      Kurt! If you bought the chinese version, review the chinese version, not the german.

      Things I liked:The trigger is great- light and crisp. The fiber optic sights are very easy to see, and provide a very good sight picture. The grip is very comfortable in my medium/large hand. This handgun is solid and well made.
      Things I would have changed:I would add a quality screwdriver for sight adjustment to the package.
      What others should know:So far I have only been plinking pop cans at about 20 meters, so I can not comment on group size on paper, but if I do my part the pistol hits every time. I have been shooting the Beeman 6.5gr Laser pellets recommended by Pyramyd, and this pistol really likes them.

      I,m on my 2'nd P-17. Shoots great! But after the next expected failure, I'll be ordering the P-3

      The P17 is a Chinese knock off of the German made version. The P17 will leak and produce inconsistent velocities usually in under 100 shots. The fit an finish of the internals are totally different. I've totally re-worked 2 - P17s - See my reviews for the fixes. Not bad for the money if you don't mind investing time and O - Rings. But not even close to the P3 or the HW.

      No, the P17 is NOT the exact same thing, this one is better.

      The P-17 IS way cheaper but is it as good? Very bad quality complaints from owners. I am just hoding my breath waiting for that leak.
