Welcome to the Pyramyd Insyder’s PCP 101 Series. Today we're going to talk about different methods to fill your PCP. And they are plentiful, as you can see in front of me. Now this is just a limited selection of the available products that Pyramyd Air offers to fill your PCP airguns. But first, we're going to start the most economical, the most affordable. Those are the hand pumps. Now we have our Air Venturi g6 pump here and our Hill hand pump here, and the reason we have two different pumps on display for you is because they use two different kind of connections, and this is important when we talk about filling PCPs. How do you link the gun to your pump or your tank or your compressor. This is all something that you have to be aware of.
What are the best options to fill your PCP gun with air? Tyler explains the many methods to getting air into your new airgun, from beginner handpumps to advanced fill systems, and everything about adapters.

PCP Airguns 101: How to Fill your PCP Airgun Video Transcript: Welcome to the Pyramyd Insyder PCP 101 series. Last time we showed you guys all of our various fill types, we got hand pumps, tanks, and we even showed you guys a compressor. Today we're gonna take all of those and show you how to actually fill the rifles with them. Let's check it out. So our first fill method that we're gonna show you is gonna be with the G6 hand pump here from Air Venturi. Now we got our Benjamin Wildfire here. Selfishly I chose the Wildfire because it only fills to 2,000 PSI. I really don't have any intention of filling a gun all the way to 3,000. But filling procedure with this, in terms of hooking it up is pretty simple, we're just gonna take our end cap off, exposing our male quick disconnect fitting, and the G6 comes with a female fitting on it, so we're just gonna go ahead, hook those up right here, snap that over. You want to make sure the collar is locked into place, and then we're gonna go ahead take it to the ground and fill it. Alright guys so we're bout ready start pumping, now the guns got about a thousand PSI in it, so these first couple pump strokes are gonna be purely just filling the hose with air to get it up to that thousand mark. Now you notice I'm bending my knees, I'm not just bending at the waist like this, it's considerably easier when you put your full weight into the pump stroke. But now I gotta pump, so we're gonna speed this up for you guys. All right so it looks like we're at about 2,000 PSI on our pump gauge. Now let's double check with the gun. Yeah sure enough right in about 2,000 PSI. Now we're gonna go ahead and bleed the line, so we're just gonna grab a hold of our bleeder and twist counterclockwise. That's all, the air pressure’s out. You know it's good, you just simply detach your quick disconnect fitting and you're all good to go. I'd be honest with youm these pumps man they're not, not easy. That was just 2,000 PSI by the way, I don't know how many strokes that was, feels like a lot, feel it in my arms, not a pleasurable experience, certainly doable. If you guys have to do it you know if you don't have somewhere that can feel close to you, certainly a pump is an option, but no it comes at a physical expense, and that's not what air gunning is all about. So my preferred option, let's check out how to fill from a tank. Alright guys so real quick before we go ahead and fill this Crawl, punch or breaker with our tank here. Just to familiarize you guys a little bit with the anatomy of the tank just a bit more. So again, we still have our same female quick disconnect fitting on the end here. We do have a gauge up front, now this is an output gauge, this is gonna tell you what's going out of the tank into your gun when you open this valve. So the valve is very simple, on off and you throttle it just like you would a motorcycle, dirt bike, whatever. So you've got to have a little bit of feel when you open that up, and you obviously got to pay attention to the gauge, and we'll show you guys just exactly how that process works. And lastly we have our bleeder here on the side so when you are full and ready to go, you simply open that up and you're gonna bleed and exhaust all the air in the in the line, so you can go ahead and disconnect it. Now our Crawl here already has about 150 BAR in it, but we want to go ahead and top it up to 200. So we're gonna go ahead and insert our fill probe into the fill port there, and then we're gonna take our female quick disconnect to pull back that lip, and then attach it over the male end and then snap it forward. Now you always want to make sure this is snapped forward, and that there's not really any give in that fitting itself. Just like we did with our pump, we're gonna come over and make sure our bleed valve is nice and tight. Now what you guys are gonna see as we go ahead and open this valve is that gauge, is that needle there, is gonna spike. What that's doing is just filling the line with air, we're gonna see it stop and equalize out once we actually equalize the pressure in the line with the pressure that's currently in the tank. So we should see it about 150 BAR here. I'm just gonna nice and easy slowly open that valve, and there you go. You see it equalized out there and that's why it starts to slow down. And then we just go ahead and give it a little bit more. Get it right up to about 200 BAR. It's normal to see a little bit of fall-off here and it's okay just to leave it connected there, just get a little bit more in. Maximize your fill there, then we're just going to go ahead like we did with our pump and bleed the line. Disconnect our fitting here. You can actually pull out the fill probe with it, two separate pieces again now. We're good to go shoot. So we've got our Air Venturi compressor here. Now you can fill tanks or guns directly, we're gonna fill this Air Arms S510 here with it. And go ahead and take our hose here with the female quick disconnect fitting, hook it right up to the adapter on the Air Arms. Now the gun has about 150 BAR left in it so this fill should go really really quick. Just like with our tank and our pump we're gonna go ahead and make sure the bleed valve’s closed. Next step is gonna be to adjust our output pressure. Now you can adjust anywhere from zero to 4500 PSI with this unit. Now really realistically it's 2,000 for your lower fill pressure guns and then about 4,350 for your higher pressure or 4,500 for your tanks. But we're gonna go ahead and adjust the gauge to 200 bar which is the max fill on the S510. And then we're gonna go ahead and switch our cooling system on. Now this is gonna operate the fan and the water pump as well. You'll hear that come to life here. Once that's up and running, we're going to go ahead and flick our compressor switch on, and that's when our fill is going to start.

 | SIG Sauer MCX CO2 Air Rifle0.0(0 reviews)When it comes to semi-auto pellet airguns, does it get any better than a SIG Sauer MCX? Rossi converts the MCX to a PCP with the Air Venturi HPA Tank and gets some serious trigger time in this episode of the Pyramyd Outsyder.
Video Transcript Below: "I got a Sig MCX, I got thirty rounds, I got a bunch of targets, oh here we go. Let's roll. Ah, that was like 40 targets! There's only three standing. Welcome to the Pyramyd Outsyder, this is the Sig MCX. Hey, what's up guys? Welcome to the Pyramyd Outsyder. Now this is a cool, cool very cool, very intimidating, very bad mama jama looking rifle. The only thing that's disappointing in this rifle is it's not as big it as bad as it looks to be honest. It's a .177, nothing wrong with .177 other than the fact that it's just a .177 small caliber, but a lot of fun. This is a very fun rifle to shoot, but first of all, let's take a look at it. It’s co2 powered. It is semi-auto. There's a 30 round rotary mag so it's like it's like a little magazine, I'll show you as we move through it, but first of all, let's take a look at the gun itself. Obviously, it's very tactical looking as you would expect from Sig Sauer. Sig Sauer recently gotten into the airgun market and they're putting out guns that are just, they're just awesome looking, so I mean these are the kind of guns I wish I had when I was a kid to go out and play with and, you know, hunt small game and shoot target stuff because they just look awesome. It has a metal housing so everything in here in the component side is metal. It's tough and it's built right. You've got your safety right here. It's kind of got that AR look to it if you will. It's got the pistol grip. It's got the magazine here. I'm over on the back side, push, it pops open and as you can see this is the the magazine, let me just pull it out and show you, so it holds thirty thirty pellets, like I said, it's slightly, you load it up it's already loaded, but you slide it in to rotor, it just moves like this and you fires, you know, as fast as fast as fierce as you can you got the thirty rounds. It's got, it's got the the handle up here, a little grip you can move this around, you can also remove it if you just want to hold it, up here on the on the front of stock it's got the Weaver row back here for the optics. It's got the Picatinny rail up here where you can put all kinds of stuff. It's got a look at the rear and front sights pop up and down so you can use those. It also comes with the Sig Sauer airguns red dot sight that goes on the top there to make it even cooler. On the other side, I mean, it's got all the I'm not everything works, you know, like normal all this stuff doesn't flap open, you can't push this stuff view, but it's it's there when you when you load it, you rack it just like you normally would with a with a semi-auto rifle. Other than that's it, you know, the basic rundown of this gun is you pop this off the battery little you know just release it there and then you plug an 88 or 90 gram co2 capsule in there. The bigger capsules in this slides over the top of it and gives it that look. I don't have those because I don't love those. Those 88 grams co2 cartridges are expensive and you don't get near as many shots as you should so what I am going to do with this gun, because it's what I try to do with all co2 rifles that I can, is it doesn't look as cool so I want you to take it in this is the Sig MCX we're gonna change it a little bit now. We're going to pop this up and Air Ventura has come out with this 13 cubic inch tank that you can replace co2 cartridges with this and put 3000 psi into this gun. This thing is regulated in to 1,100 psi so from 3000 to 1100 you're getting a regulated shot you're gonna get a tremendous amount of more shots from this than you are from a co2 cartridge. You'll always know exactly how much air you have, comes with this little adapter. It's pretty simple. So, you want to screw this in and then so from what I've learned it's best to kind of screw in what is the adapter and then you should over screw this guy in. Okay, and then it comes with this little butt pad you can just throw on so you can have the same effect of the rifle, so, you know, it's a little bit longer than this, it's obviously not near as cool, but I mean I just turned the co2 gun into a pcp now I've got this male quick disconnect I'll just plug her in fill her up and then we can start doing some testing on the Sig MCX. Here we go. Let's do this. Rack it, locked and loaded. 425 feet per second. 405 feet per second. 423 feet per second. Oh, 384, dropped a little bit shooter air, but 431, 400, I mean, are you kidding me? There's six nice little group. Let's see what we can do. When you're done, it goes into safe, can't shoot anymore. 376 all those, pretty good group at 25 yards. Guys, for a 177 gun like this, looks like this semi-auto, it doesn't get any cooler. I mean, it's got, you know, pretty good speed. You're looking at high 300s for the most part, mmm mid to low 400s which is good enough for this is a good planking gun. I mean, I don't, I would not recommend going and doing any hunting with this personally. I mean very, very small game, you know, I say like like like cockroaches, maybe ants, but for the most part, this is a gun for fun, for plinking, for knocking down targets. Let's take it to the gun range and see what we can do with it shall we? We shall. I want to see it has the power to blow the hundred and thirty psi bottle we've got down there, the two-liter. Oh no, that's a big negatory, but let's see what we can do to a can of soda. Oh, there you go! See, got some power for the can. Let's see how good of aim I have with the rocket shot, hit it up, shoot the can in the air, hit the can. I'm gonna go ahead and say I probably missed that, you know, I'm not gonna miss King Kong's giant face. Reload. Alright, so looking at the the kind of the magazine here, there's a flat side and then this side has like a little it's just like the little part you put it in the thicker part, the thicker part you put that pellet down, so I'm finishing up here, but what so once you get like that and then you look at this, you'll notice that these little pegs fit right in there and then it just slides in like so pellets your face now. Now you gotta drop the chalk buddy, just drop it, yep, King Kong, I said drop it, drop the chalk. Ah-hah, King Kong, get gummy, you're the toughest monkey in the world I get it, but just fall down. Guys, look, this is a great fun, plinking, a target gun. It's great if, you throw, this adapter on there from Air Ventura, you know, it's not gonna have the most power, it's not gonna pop off. Some of the big things we've got to here, but you talk about knockdown targets, hit little things at different distances all the way up to 35 40 yards, this is it the Sig MCX. You can get it for a hundred and eighty bucks. It's a repeater. It's 30 shots. It's semi-auto .177. It's as fun as you want to make it then we make it fun. Thanks for watching The Outsyder, see you next time. " |
 | Umarex Legends MP40 CO2 BB Submachine Gun Review0.0(0 reviews)This .177 caliber BB rifle promises hours of fun with a 60 round magazine and full auto capability! Powered by two 12 gram CO2 cartridges, simply select full or semi-automatic firing, and mow down tin cans like never before. Umarex Legends MP40 Video Transcript: Welcome to the Pyramyd Insyder, I'm Tyler Patner. Today we're gonna be taking a look at one of the legends of World War II, the Umarex Legends MP40 BB Submachine Gun. Alright guys it's finally here the famous World War II replica the MP40 from Umarex. This is the latest offering in their Legends line. As you guys are probably aware, they come out with some kind of new replica every year in that Legends line, and this year with the MP40 a very very exciting offering. Semi-automatic, fully automatic, you got sixty round magazine, I mean this gun has full blowback, it's a real steel feel and a gun that is obviously not made anymore and is very famous from the World War II era, so a very interesting offering, let's check out some of the features. Starting at the front of the gun we have a hooded front post sight, not adjustable, but at the back, we do have a flip-up elevation adjustable rear sight. So you can run it either with the rear tab up or down, whatever's working best for you is obviously gonna be the way you want to go. So also at the front of the gun, you'll notice that we have a front sling mount as well as a rear sling mount here if you did want to go ahead and add a very traditional looking sling and make this gun look a little bit more authentic. I'm moving on down the gun, we do have our mag release here, this guy right there, you just press in on it. Now you notice the mag doesn't drop free, which with a magazine that heavy I actually like. You don't want this to get damaged if it falls out as you press this. The magazine itself is very stout, obviously, we're gonna fit two CO2 cartridges in here with the included wrench. You simply remove this. We will show you guys how to actually load that up with CO2 later, the magazine holds 60 BB's and it is a double stack magazine, to the reliability or anything like that obviously we're gonna test it here for you and make sure it can get all sixty rounds off on two CO2 cartridges without any jams, so that's gonna be an interesting one to see. And as well there is a little magnet up here at the top so I want to know if it feeds Smart Shot BB's reliably or not, I don't know if that magnet is integral to the function or in feeding of the magazine, but obviously we'll get it on the range and find out. And just behind our magazine housing you do have your functional bolt so this is actually gonna come back every time. It's a blowback gun so you are gonna get that blowback sensation which does give you a little bit of an authentic kind of muzzle rise feel to the gun. And you'll notice on the other side or what would be an ejection port on a real firearm does actually cycle with that as well, so it's the whole housing that's moving inside the gun, which gives you that real steel feel. And flipping the gun over on the underside here you'll notice we have our safety and select fire system. The white dot in the tab in the forward position means the gun is safe, flip it back once for semi-automatic, one shot per trigger pull, and then flip it all the way back for full auto, you can dump the whole mag with one trigger pull if you want to. Pretty interesting feature but very easy to use and go between safe, semi, and full-auto. And at the rear of the gun we have a folding stock which functions off this quick depressed tab here, so you just push it in, go ahead fold that up, you're gonna want to fold this part forward, and it just goes in right like that, now you can actually shoot the gun with the folding stock, fold it up like this so you can just kind of run it like that or you simply flip it out, and that does require you to hit the button again, flip it into the position there, and you're good to go from the shoulder. Very easy. Now before we head out to the range and go shoot this bad boy, we're gonna show you how to load the magazine up. First thing you're gonna do is go ahead, take the included Allen key and remove the screw at the very bottom of the magazine. You simply pull that out set it aside. Next, we're gonna take two CO2 cartridges, go ahead and little drop a Pellgun Oil on each of them. Just enough to keep everything lubricated inside the gun. And then we load the first one in face-up like that, and then the next one in we go ahead and load it back in first, right like that, and then we go ahead and put our end cap back in. Screw it all the way in and we can hear it pressurize there. You just want to make sure that this is all the way tight so that both of the CO2 cartridges are pierced. And just heard the second one go there, so we're good. It will pierce both, there's a piercing cap from this end and at the top end here that's gonna pierce both. So now that we have our CO2 loaded into the gun, we're gonna go ahead and load up some BBs. Now, this is probably the hardest process in operating this gun in general. When you go ahead and pull this follower back here, now you can see I'm using the end cap from a pen, you can also use the included Allen key or a smaller one if you want. But you're simply gonna go ahead and press this all the way back. It does not lock in place, this is one of my biggest gripes, not just with this gun but CO2 guns in general. When they don't lock back it makes everything very difficult, so you have to keep tension on it there and then you're gonna go ahead and drop some BBs in. A speedloader is gonna be very helpful here as you can see you just get the BB's dropped in there. Kind of rock it forward so you're only gonna be able to load it a couple at a time here as you go, and then you're gonna have to kind of tilt things forward to get it all moving. And when you're done just so you guys know and you can see it, you simply release the spring tension on the magazine and it's going to go ahead and apply pressure up into the mag which will feed the BBs properly. So it's going to work hopefully very well and you can see them kind of double stacking, it's not always consistent in terms of which sides they fall on, although we'll find out if that matters as well when we go out to the range. So let's get this loaded up into the gun, head out to the range, and see what happens. Alright guys so looking over our accuracy results here, we used five or six different BBs and we settled on the Air Venturi steels and the Umarex steels. Both performed about the same as their most of the other stuff. About two and a half inches here with the Umarex steels and about two inches on the Air Venturis at 10 yards. And again, these are ten shots and semi-automatic so not too bad. I was expecting honestly a little bit worse, so this is really not bad especially considering I was shooting the gun unsupported and just with the buttstock flipped out. So looking at our full auto groupings, went for 20 shots instead of 10 here, still at 10 yards, of course, and unsupported. The Air Venturi BB's pretty good about two and a half inches, and the Umarex one's a little bit tighter at about two inches, so things stay very consistent, you know in that in that two to two-and-a-half inch range it's gonna give you the ability to plink all day I mean. In terms of accuracy, for a BB gun this is quite good. We use the Umarex steel BB's for a full auto shot count test, and obviously two fresh CO2 cartridges, and at 65 degrees we've got about 140 shots before things seriously drop off. 140 at 10 yards before dropping off is way more than I thought it was going to do, so really good performance out of the MP40. Alright guys, so before we get to my final thoughts here, I wanted to show you guys what we did, we showed you guys the full auto shot count, about 140 shots. What we did off-camera though, we did semi auto shot count as well. We got 196 shots off two CO2 cartridges before the bolt stops cycling. Now obviously your velocities are gonna come down quite a bit, but you know at their peak, you're looking at about 450 feet per second you know off of fresh CO2 when you go ahead and get this guy loaded up. So pretty fast shooting CO2 gun, especially for a blowback gun, and as well a lot of shot count here, especially on semi-auto and 140 shots on full, that's a ton of shooting. So guys for my final thoughts on this MP40. Obviously, it's a ton of fun to shoot, it gets a lot of shots, reasonable velocity, and a full auto replica like this, I mean there's, you're gonna have fun alright. And that's really what this gun is about. I do have a couple gripes though, you know the fact that you can't shoot Smart Shot in this gun, we did try it and was not able to get it to feed, whether it's that magnet or something else internally going on, I'm not sure but the fact that doesn't shoot Smart Shot, I would have liked that to be a possibility with this gun. And also when we did test the capacity in terms of feeding and everything, on full auto in particular, we're only getting about 40-45 rounds before we start experiencing jams. So something to consider you're only going to want to put 40-45 BB's into the magazine if you're gonna run this gun on full-auto. Other than that guys, really impressive new offering from Umarex into that Legends line, a super badass gun that I think you guys will enjoy a lot.

 | Schofield No. 3 CO2 BB Airgun Revolver0.0(0 reviews)This airgun 6-shooter is an authentic replica of the famous Schofield No. 3 designed by Army Ordnance officer, Major George W. Schofield of the 10th Cavalry.
Video Transcript Below: Dance! That right there, I'll teach myself to mess with me myself, you know what I'm saying, just don't mess with me when I got my six-shooter. Hey, guys, welcome to the Pyramyd Outsyder. Today we are looking at the Bear River version of the Schofield number three. Now this is an old western gun, the 9th of 10th cavalry to be used back in days, it was actually invented, to put together by an Army General, so this is actually an army gun, but it was, it's got a couple cool features, and and specific features, for reasons why they used it and loved it in the Old West. First of all, look at the gun. You got this this nice gunmetal color here. I got the wood polymer grips. There's different colored grips and ivory grips, different color guns are. They can go silver, maybe smugglers, I'm not exactly sure, but this is the one I picked. I think it looks cool with real, it's got a genuine cocking, single fire hammer right there, so you've got a cock it to shoot it. You can't just pull the trigger, got a cock it to shoot it just like that. It's also got, they've a cool feature that the reason it does this is because back in the old days in Old West when they were riding on horses, guys used to love to use it because when you cracked it open like this how all the shells would pop out and they would or you could just pull them out really quick, so this is a, this is a feature that not a lot of six-shooters had. You're used to seeing the little door open up on the side, you got to do it. Well, when they were riding horses and you can just, yep, there you go, they pop out just like that, you are good to go. So, this was something, this is one of the reasons they loved it and this is a gun has it right here so cool this is one of those cool features we've seen this before in some of these replicas BB guns, but yet they've got, that they've got the realistic looking bullets here. You put, the you put the BB in there in the end and then you get to load it just like this and then when you shoot, cock and shoot, the hammer works just like a real single-shot revolver, the cylinder moves when you cock and move to the other different BB, you got six shots and then you reloaded and, of course. Let's take a look here. So, you load it, very simple, crack it open, just take these, take the bullets out here, and I call them bullets because they are genuinely replica bullets, but, you know, it's loaded up just like this. There's two ways to do it. Some people do it like this. I prefer to do it like this, just pick them up, just like that boom, boom, you know, get organized, snap them down just like that, and you are good to go. Big clicks up like this, did you go a little bit further, it goes down so then you can just drop them in like that just in case you're worried about dropping and, you know, you lose them you're kind of SOL, so make sure you hold on to your bullet. So, you actually can't shoot the BB, so of course this is the co2 powered revolver. It's got your got your tool right there so, you know, you pop it in there your co2 cartridge, tighten it up, handler goes back on, and you are good to go now. Now that it has the BB’s in it, it is ready to go, so if you pull that hammer back and fire, it's going to shoot. Let's just look and see what kind of feet per second. I think they're saying like 450 or something like that. 233. 233. 226. 215. Alright, so there you go, so you're mid 200s, 213, 192, so that actually dropped off quite a bit. I could be low on on air right now. I've been shooting a lot of that, I had a show down there at high noon earlier, dance, and I was getting to the end of my co2 cylinder, so I just put a fresh one in. Let's take a look one more time, see we got. 364. So, there you go, right out of the gate, you're gonna get, you know, mid to high 300s, as you lose the co2, you're gonna get, that's probably at this point, I'd say one twenty twenty-five shot, that co2 starts to touch, start to diminish and just going to get hit, it looks like mid to low two hundreds. So, we got some targets. I mean, listen, guys, this is a pistol. It's a six-shooter. It's a BB gun so you're gonna be close. You get to work on your speed. I mean, I got some targets there, but you know what I want to work on is is it speed, how quiet, how fast can I can I draw and shoot. You can't fan the gun. There's no, even if you hold down the trigger like that, you can't move the hammer which is kind of annoying. I really like to fan the gun. I'm not gonna lie to you, I like to just hold it where you hold the trigger fan and you just pull the pull the hammer back and go as fast you can so you can do that and there is a safety right here which obviously was not a part of the original gun. So, right here that's safety so then you can't can't cock it. If you can't cock it, you can't shoot it so you want to make sure that you're off the safety, but other than that, I mean, this is realistic, it's heavy, it's got good weight, you know, when I said, like I told you, you all you're wanted to, I don't want to do a spin and learn how to twirl, so here we go. Let's take the shot to see what kind of accuracy we got. Not bad. You see this is the thing now, back, you know, these days everyone holds their gun like this, was a whole gripping back in the day and that was a one-handed shot mean you got to pull it out of your holster, you were to cock it like that and then you had to shoot and then you had to do it fast. Let’s see how fast I can do it. Ready? Son, are you kidding me? Let’s try that one more time, that was high and then you got a spinner up, go, yes, sir, gotta reload. So, I was having my showdown with that fool from earlier and trying to make him dance like a monkey, he was all screaming like he normally does, this is how I did that, I had to pull it out real quick right, get back, ha and then just cock and shoot, cock and shoot, and cock and shoot, and cock and shoot, and cock and shoot, and cock and shoot, like that and he was dancing. I might have hit him in the foot cuz I'm not that good of an aim, cuz it's kinda hard to shoot this thing, I'll be honest, but I got six shots. Gotta reload the old skulls with number three. I'll tell you, it'd be nice to have an original one right the back of the day. I think 18 has are in 1877 right up in the day, pretty cool. So here we go, see would you say if I can just aim and shoot. Alright, here we go. Alright, guys, so go to pyramydair.com, get you a Schofield number 3, and show me your spinning and twirling and holster and techniques. I want to see what you got, see if you got what I think I've got, you let me tell you something, they're only 100 bucks so everybody should have one. Alright, thanks for watching the Pyramyd Outsyder. |
 | Pyramyd Insyder at SHOT Show 2018 - Part 30.0(0 reviews)The Pyramyd Insyder was all over SHOT Show 2018 scouring the floor for the latest air rifles and air pistols from cutting-edge airgun manufactures like Air Venturi, Seneca, Umarex, RWS and Springfield Armory. Pyramyd Insyder: SHOT Show 2018 - Part 3 Video Transcript: Hey guys we're here at the Air Venture booth SHOT Show 2018. This is the Double Shot. Alright why do they call it the Double Shot? Two barrels of ultimate badassery right here. This is of course first and foremost an air shotgun. Basically you can call this the big brother of the Wing shot if you want to, I am just calling it awesome. We have an air distributor system here this is going to allow you to quickly flip between the left and the right barrel, it is absolutely fantastic, it works super smooth and all you have to do, you cock the gun, you turn it, and you are good to go. Of course if you're going to shoot something maybe like these guys, these air bolts out of this, you're going to have to take off these chokes. They did let me play around with this before we came out to SHOT. This is, of course, like one of two prototypes right now, but guys this is super awesome, 18 inch pattern at 20 yards with both barrels. And you're able to put four of these, you know one after the other, with one reload in between into about a three-inch group at 35 yards. This thing is going to be a hunter's dream. You got a quick follow up shot with these air bolts. What more could you ask for guys? So really cool, brand-new, this is going to be under the Seneca line the Double Shot, one you're gonna want to check out in 2018. Alright guys we are back at the Air Venturi booth. This is a cool little rifle that caught my eye here at the booth. They're calling this the TR 5, now this guy is a youth target rifle, very reminiscent of the IZH 61 that we can no longer get here in the states so. You got a five-round repeating system, of course, this is a spring piston side lever gun. You can see that side lever right here, you simply lift up on it and go to the side and you're able to go ahead, pull that back, and you can actually you just saw that index right there. So this is all gonna work really really simply and smoothly for those junior shooters out there. You got a rail underneath for mounting a sling accessory and, of course, we're going to put target sights on this. So I would imagine you're gonna probably see some sort of aperture sights, you know probably similar to what we used to see on that IZH model, but some updates. They made a little update to the design as far as I can see here. You have a quick adjusting buttstock and it feels like it's got about six positions in it, as well as an up-and-down adjustable butt pad here via this thumb screw on the back, so you loosen it you can actually move that rubber butt pad up and down. You know this one's going to be a great option to get the kids into some target shooting with or if you're just looking to plink in the backyard, probably going to be a really really good choice, and one to keep an eye on as the year goes forward. Back at the Air Venturi booth. Guys these guys keep coming out with new products it's crazy. This is the Hellboy alright, this is in their Hellraiser line they're calling it. This is basically your AR M4 replica and this feels pretty damn real to me guys. You can see you got the flip opened dust port there, the ejection port. Here's all the features this thing has packed in guys. You have the fully adjustable six-point buttstock here and it this castle nut actually can come loose so it does seem like at least you can change out your buffer tube and your buttstock if you so choose. We do have a selector switch over here on this side. Now you'll notice it does say auto, they are telling me this does not function in full auto, only semi-automatic even when you do have it on that auto selector, eh but that's alright. They're telling me they're hitting good targets with this thing you know a 12 by 12 target I'd bet 240 yards with bb's, alright, that's pretty awesome. You got a drop free mag that's going to house 18 bb's in one co2 cartridge, they're saying fifty to sixty shots. Guys it looks like honestly you could replace all of these accessories with just about anything you want on here, and for those of you that want a little bit more precision you can even unscrew this and you got a flat top rail on top. This is actually really awesome if you're looking to do some action shooting or practice for what you're going to be doing out in the field maybe in the range with your real AR, the Hellboy's going to be one to check out, stay tuned. Hey guys we're back at SHOT Show 2018 still at the Air Venturi booth. We are taking a look at the brand new Seneca Dragonfly. This actually looks a lot like the Diana Stormrider except that it is a multi-pump, alright, so check that out. You're able to get eight pumps with this in 177, you're looking at about 800 feet per second they're telling me and about 622. Coolest thing about this though,.multi-pump multishot you slide, just like the Stormrider you slide the single shot tray out and a magazine fits right in here. Nine rounds into 177 and 7 and 22. Same magazines as a Storm Rider so those are already readily available, so a little solid 5-pound gun multi-pump gun, it's going to be perfect for you preppers out there. Open sights of course, and you're gonna be able to mount a scope on the 11 millimeter dovetail guys. Again if you've been looking for a multi-pump rifle whether you're looking to get a youth shooter into it or you are looking to do some hunting yourself without having to worry about a spring or a piston breaking on you or having to fill up a gun with a PCP multi-pump pneumatic, the Dragonfly's coming your way. Check it out in 2018. Hey guys back here at the Air Venturi booth, last thing we're going to show you here today and probably the most significant. I'm watching this display here, it's got me a little mesmerized so I apologize if I zone out. These are the Dust Devil BB's, this is the world's first and only frangible BB. Frangible means it breaks apart when it hits a hard target, guys. That means you could shoot your steel targets, your plinking stuff, we got a gong target, you know on the website, there you can shoot any of these hard targets and these BB's break apart. He's working almost every BB gun you got out there, I think they don't work in the MP40 which was I was really bummed to hear that, but any of your single-stack magazine BB pistols or rifles, these are gonna work great in. They're a little bit lighter than your traditional 5.1-grain steel BB, so they are gonna go a bit faster as well, but this is a way safer option than your traditional steel BB and even then your smart shot BB's, which are low ricochet. If those are low ricochet these are no ricochets, what I'm being told, so that's really cool. 1500 counts probably going to be around ten bucks. Guys, these are gonna make shooting BB guns a lot more fun. We're going to be using these quite a bit here on the Insyder in 2018 so stay tuned. Alright guys so I was about to leave the Air Venturi booth and they told me they got us a licensing deal with Springfield Armory. Pretty cool. Actually, the first pistol I ever bought, real steel 9-millimeter pistol, was an XDM, and this is the exact replica of that gun. Now this is an airsoft version, they're also going to have BB versions. Pull blowback, drop three mag. Guys this feels just like the real thing, they even have the texturing down, and I'm told it comes with the interchangeable backstraps, as well functional grip safety, come on this is awesome. This is going to make training at home if you have a Springfield pistol, there's gonna be some 1911's out there as well, awesome stuff here guys, this is really gonna open it up. I can't think of many brands now that aren't represented with an air gun replica. Springfield Armory was one of the last ones that wasn't, and Air Venturi is gonna take care of that for us, but not only do they have pistols, guys, that are coming, but they're doing rifles too. Parking them back, just a little bit of an older time here. We have the M1 Carbine replica, this is actually, this is full metal and if this is a wood stock. I'm told there's going to be a synthetic stock option available for a little bit less probably around $199 or so but this wood stock option is definitely going to be available. They're telling me this is a cold blowback gun in the airsoft version. Co2 cartridge looks like a drop free mag again here, yep CO2 right in the bottom, so I'm expecting the BB versions probably going to be very similar. And, of course, the venerable M1A. Now this is a Springer airsoft version that they have here for show, but they tell me they're working on a bunch of other versions which includes CO2 as well so if you are an M1A fan and looking for something not only in airsoft but also in steel BB to replicate the field, maybe your real M1A or an M14, definitely one to check out. Guys this is a huge deal for the guys at Air Venturi. Really cool, looking forward to seeing what they put out in 2018. We're gonna check out the rest of the show now guys. Stay tuned here with the Insyder at SHOT Show. Hey guys we're here at the Umarex booth, obviously Umarex did big big things in the PCP world in 2017, and in 2018 they are not going to disappoint. The Hammer is here guys. Very very impressive changes and upgrades in my opinion to this gun here. Now they're saying made in America, I don't know what exactly all qualifies is made in America, that's not really the important part, let's talk about some of the performance specs they're talking about here. You have a 4,500 psi carbon-fiber cylinder on this gun which is regulated at 3,000 psi. Gun has a two-round magazine in it and that's going to give you, you should be able to get two to three good shots on a fill at this at up to 700 foot-pounds, seven zero zero guys. That is a ton of power, this will be the world's most powerful production big bore and man I can't wait to get my hands on this, guys. I know it looks like a pretty big gun, obviously fully shrouded barrel but this thing doesn't handle that heavy guys, and quite frankly, the balance throwing it up to the DI there is really really nice. Talking about a brand new valve design there, light speed valve in this gun which should be able to deliver not only that big power, but also a very quick jolt shock shot cycle that should be really really shooter friendly, and a 2-pound cocking effort you just pull it back like that, push it forward, let's try the trigger here real quick. For a big bore guys, that's pretty good, overall the Umarex Hammer is a fan, only one you're gonna want to check out. 50 caliber 700 foot-pounds, 2018 big things coming, stay tuned. Hey, guys, we're back at the Umarex booth checking out some new RWS guns, now these are going to be made in Germany and America, so this is gonna be an interesting kind of mash-up between Umarex Germany and Umarex USA to deliver what is going to hopefully be a very high-quality spring piston gun. This is the 3400 and we have the 3500 right behind me. Obviously you can tell some really nice stocks on here, you got some nice checkering in there, it looks like we do have an adjustable trigger as well, and you can definitely tell this is taking departure from the traditional RWS line, as we have a fiber-optic front sight up there and even as far as the safety goes, this looks very similar to what they're doing with the Walther guns. So we have a lot of new updated features kind of a mashup gun here between the historically significant Art of US line and what Umarex is wanting to do with updating some of these features. So definitely one we're going to be checking out on the Insyder here in 2018. Looking forward to this one a lot, stay tuned. Alright guys back into Umarex checking out some Glock stuff. Umarex got the Glock license earlier in 2017 and looking at these I got to tell you, these feel pretty realistic. Now these are some early samples here, and it looks like we got a drop free BB mag here so pretty nice, co2 is gonna be housed in the grip, you could see that piercing screw there at the bottom, but we don't have blowback on this particular version so this is probably going to be a lower price point gun right here, but definitely some cool stuff going to be coming out of this Umarex Glock relationship, we're looking forward to hearing more about it in 2018. Guys check this out. I saw a video of this gun just before SHOT show. Lit up the Internet, this is the Umarex Legends cowboy rifle. You see that in there, you know what that's gonna be doing? That's ejecting shells. You guys remember those shells that come with the John Wayne pistols, the Colt single-action pistols, those are exactly what we're talking about. You load those shells up right into here, one BB of course in each of those shells, and you are good to go. Blasting with lever action fun, two co2 cartridges I believe in the back of this thing. Guys this is the real deal, this is exactly what we've been looking for add that realism factor with that shell ejection. I could do this all day, guys, Umarex is gonna nail this one. Very excited to get it on the Insyder in 2018. |

 | Benjamin Bulldog .457 PCP Air Rifle Review0.0(0 reviews)*** TRANSCRIPT *** Welcome to the Pyramid Insider. I'm Tyler Patner. And today we're going to be talking about the Benjamin Bulldog in 457. So the Bulldog in 457 comes to us straight fresh from Shot Show 2022. And really you could see the writing on the wall for Benjamin and Crossmen. They wanted to get a bigger boar gun in there. That 35 cal. 357 Bulldog was always a great gun for them, but needing to go bigger kind of keeping up with the rest of the market. So we're going to run down the features, take it out to the range, put it over the chronograph, do everything that we normally do and see if this Bulldog 457 is one that you need to have in your hunting Arsenal. Now, starting at the front of the. 457 Bulldog, we have a threaded muzzle. Now this is an M 18 thread. So obviously you got to go bigger because you have that larger bore on the gun. So if you want to thread on a Donny OFL or something like that, you certainly can drop him back just a little bit. We have a slightly longer air cylinder. This is 440 CCS compared to the 340 CCS we see on the 357. Now moving on back, you'll notice we do have our front sling swivel stud here. There is one in the back of the gun as well. Now, we don't have a piccatiny rail on this one, which is a little disappointing for me personally because obviously it's nice and easy to add a bipod there, but not a huge deal. You can if you want to Mount an Overthetop mounted rail bipod onto the Picatinny rail up here. And speaking of this Picatinny rail up top, you have 26 inches of pick rail here to work with. So whether you want to add a smaller scope than this and maybe go with some other accessories, lights, lasers, whatever you think you need out in the field, you have the ability to Mount it here, which is awesome. Now dropping down, we do have your traditional pistol grip here. You also have the same two stage trigger, which is real solid right around three and a half pounds or so and the same manual safety that's very easy to operate, nice and conveniently located. Working our way back, you do have your pressure gauge here. This gun fills the 3000 PSI, which I like a lot for those of you that are hand pumping or maybe working off a tank and you don't have a compressor or a shop local to you that can fill your tank. You're going to get a lot of fills on this guy. And I like that 3000 PSI fill pressure quite a bit as we see the rest of the industry kind of go higher than that. So this is a nice little feature in my opinion, that they've been able to keep that 3000 PSI pressure. Now working our way back, just a hair further is the side lever. What I will tell you guys about this gun from an operational perspective, this has a heavier hammer spring in it. That's how they got more power out of it. Part of the reason, anyway. So when you're operating this from your shoulder, it is a little bit difficult to cock that back every time, but it's not unbearable. This is very doable, but just a little bit awkward. So something to keep in mind there. You may have to take the gun out of your shoulder to cock it. Now, as we work to the breach of this gun, a little bit of a departure from the. 357, which has a five round Mag. This is your three round gravity fed magazine clip, whatever you want to call it, just drops right in. Now, what you will notice here is that you can't push a slug in from the top and that's to prevent them from falling out when you do have them loaded in. So Loading. This is really simple. You're just going to take your slugs and stick them in, right like so until you have three stacked up like that. And again, the nice thing is I'm going to dump them over here. You can't actually drop that out. So when it's in the gun, if you do flip it over, you're not going to lose your rounds. That's a really nice, easy feature. And I can tell you this works like a charm. I was a little skeptical of this at first. I wasn't sure if it would work so well, but no feeding issues. Using it for our accuracy testing. All of our pre testing as well. And really nice and easy to just slip into the breach there. Dropping down from the breach. We do have our mail quick disconnect fill fitting right here. Obviously, everybody knows quick disconnect fittings all the rage. Way to go. No fill probes makes it nice and easy to fill this gun up to that 3000 PSI Mark. And you just replace the cover by pressing it in. Pretty easy to do. They're a little bit finicky to get off for what it's worth. Rubber butt pad at the back. Other features here you have a 28 and a half inch rifle barrel. Seems to be doing quite well in our pretesting. But I think it's time we head out to the range and go see what she's got. All right. So accuracy at 45 yards. Obviously, the Bulldog and. 357 does quite a good job out to these distances. Let's see how the. 457 does with the new Benjamin. 279 grains an inch and 8th. Not bad. Certainly hunting friendly at that distance, but by far better. Those air Venturi 300 grainers are a stud five eight inch. That's like zero six inches. Great grouping there at 45 yards. This is going to probably do very well. A little bit further out. Also, one thing I should say is we did not have the new Benjamin 350 grainers at the time of our testing so we didn't have an opportunity to test those but we went through pretty much everything else that we currently offer in this 457 size and these were the two best so let's see what they do over the chronograph. We're also going to chronograph one of our heavier slugs of 400 plus grain slug to see what the Max energy of this guy is. From a full 3000 PSI fill, the 279 grains and the 300 grain slugs you're looking at about 364 to 366 foot pounds of energy and just for kicks, we shot those 405 grain slugs as well. We're topping out at 415 foot pounds well short of Benjamin's rating of 450 foot pounds but still plenty for medium and big game, there's no doubt about that and I definitely agree that three shots is the absolute maximum you're going to want to do from a full fill with the Bulldog 457. Let's wrap up the Benjamin Bulldog 457, one that I'm really happy to see Benjamin and Crossman finally come to market with. It was time they did something bigger than the 357 and I think this fills that niche nicely. I'm not getting quite the 450 foot pounds of energy that they're rating this gun for but for what's out there those 300 grain shoots phenomenally well at the 50 yards and you're going to get plenty of power. You're talking three good solid shots that are going to be capable of taking game. This gun is a stud and one you definitely need to check out Especially if you're in the market for a shorter, big bore gun that is going to be much more size friendly if you're in a blind or a tree stand when I like a lot, check out the Benjamin Bulldog 457 next time you're on Pyramid air.com for the Insider, I'm Tyler Patner as always.

 | Evanix Rex P Air Pistol0.0(0 reviews)You'll be hard pressed to find a PCP pistol as lightweight and powerful as the Evanix Rex. Video Transcript Below: Today on the Pyramyd Outsyder, it's the of Evanix Rex P. Never had a chance, that little t-rex never had a chance with the Rex P. Are you kidding me? This, my friends, is the absolute most powerful handgun/airgun you're ever going to put in your hands. This is the Evanix Rex P. There's the Rex, it's a, it's a, it's a rifle, full-size rifle, much longer air air tank here on the back where you would where your air goes, but this is the pistol version. So, Rex P the P stands for pistol. This is the .45 caliber. It comes in .20 to .25, .357, and .45. I don't have time for that other, those little tiny calibers, I had to go right to the .45 caliber and see what this thing is all about and it is an absolute beast. I mean, this thing, look at this, you have your option of basically a bullet which we shoot in our .45 caliber rifles, they got the ball which is also fun because you can do different things with it and carries a different different power and an accuracy process, and then this is new, this is the first one I've ever seen these, these are the JSB predator XXLs and it's basically, not basically, it is a giant pellet. There's a giant pellet so now you can use these for certain types of competitions that you have to have a pellet. You can use a .45 caliber now which I've had to use 357s in the past, so very exciting. So, let's take a look at this thing. It doesn't come with a scope. It does have the weaver rail up here. I threw a UTG laser dot on there just because, I don't know, it looks cool and it's super fun, but basically, you're looking at a very tactical, you know, steel frame. It's got a plastic handle, everything else is steel, and then back here is the air reservoir which you can actually unscrew and you can have you can have multiple of these with you. In the .45 caliber, you're only gonna get 4 to 5 shots with this thing because it's it's it packs a wallop for sure, not to mention it's super loud, which I love especially when I'm hunting dinosaurs. I like for the other dinosaurs to know that I'm there, so they don't come creeping through the woods. One for the gun reviews. Back there you can see how much air you've got in there, at 200 bar is the, well 220 is the max, in the green it's 200 bar to 100 bar, 220 bar is about 30 almost 30, 200 psi so it's pretty good air pressure in there and it's a fill it. You just take that off. It comes with its probe, right, so you just take the back off, hook this up to your tank obviously, and just pop it in and there you go. I mean, I got to tell you, though it's a .45 caliber, so I don't know if you shot an actual .45 handgun lately, but they're not the easiest thing to control if you're not used to it, so it's definitely, you want your targets close, so you can hit them. The other cool thing here is the cocking mechanism. So, it's under lever here. It's part of where the trigger guard is or it is the trigger guard, I guess, so, you know, you just, it comes down, cock right here, you can see the breech opens, that's where you load it up there on top and then as you close it, and then so you've got this little piece right here that you have to you just bend down and then it closes. That's it. You got your safety right here, safe fire, so, you know, as you can see it's pretty simple right there. It is known, what I hear, as the hand cannon so I'm gonna test it. Obviously, I'm not gonna test for accuracy because that has nothing to do with the gun, that has everything to do with me, but I'm gonna look at some, I wanna, I wanna shoot each one of these, see what kind of foot feet per seconds we're getting, look at the foot-pounds. They say you're in some calibers, you're getting like 90 foot-pounds, maybe even more at the .45, I don't know, but let's put up the test and see what this thing is all about. Alright, so, first things first, I'm going to start with the ball. The ball is a hundred and forty-three grain. It's the smallest of all these. So, let's pop it in. So, there as you can see, it just kind of goes in and then you kind of seed it a little bit, but it doesn't go all the way in, so, you know, just be aware of that, and then close her down. We are ready to go. Here we go with the ball seat it in there, bring her back and bang, okay, so we've taken a grams with chrony. She's a 449 with 143 grain. That seems a little low to me, but real quickly, we're just gonna charge it up. We'll show you how that's done. It's like I said, you pop the black cap off there, slide her in, fill it up to 200 bar, and you get about four good shots at 200 bar, so there you go, simple enough, right? So, the ball, so 450 feet per second, let's move to the, This is the ball, this is a 200-grain bullet here. So, let's take a look at that ready 555 so that bullet goes faster than round ball. The round ball is at 449, the bullets at 555, and it's 60 60 grams heavier so that's pretty cool. 555 if you think 555 feet per second at 200 grains at 671, you're looking at that would be a 200 foot-pound so even if you cut that cut that half which is 675 to 5 only 100 feet per second off, I mean, you're looking at a hundred and something foot-pounds doing the math in my head. 671 is where you get one times the weight of the pellet so 555 120 feet per second less so you're getting like a hundred and fifty hundred and twenty foot-pounds with that. That's crazy. Here we go, let's take a look, so this is the pellet and it's 243 gram. There we go, let's see what kind of powers. This thing is putting out three hundred three hundred and fifty-seven feet per second with a 243-grain pellet. That is some serious foot poundage. Alright, guys, as you can see this thing has got power. It is awesome. Let's take you to the fun range and blow some stuff up, come on. Alright, I'm gonna go with the hollow-point 200 grain. Here we go. Bottle. Let's try that watermelon. Are you ready? So, there it is again into the wood, a solid, I mean, it's like an inch in there. I missed the cinder block. Cinder block, you're not done. I mean that's a that's a solid chunk of concrete out of there. This thing is absolutely, that's wild, can't get over it, I mean, listen, this thing has got mass amounts of power, tons of foot-pounds, is it a little difficult to shoot, sure it is, it's a .45 caliber hand cannon so it has kick, it has, it's gonna throw your scope off depending on what you put on there, got to make sure you get the right scope, but this is the Evainx Rex P .45 pistol. You've seen the rifle. The rifle is absolutely amazing. The pistol is just awesome; it's fun, it's scary-looking, it's intimidating, and you can get it at Pyramyd Air. That's it for this Pyramyd Outsyder. I hope you guys had as much fun as I have. See you next time.

Hey, welcome to Pyramyd Outsyder. Are you kidding me? I mean, if my gun’s got a bayonet on it, I'm gonna give something the old “get get get get get.” How do you not, right? It's got a bayonet on it, that's awesome. Let's talk about this. So this is the Gletcher M1944 or the Mosin Nagant M1944 which is the original gun. It's an old Russian legend gun. This gun was made from like the mid 1800s all the way through 1950 so this is a gun they used in World War II. These guns, the real version of this gun, is very expensive now so they say that, you know, if you get one of these that could go up in price as a collector's item, you know, if you're, if you're a fan. |
 | Episode 1 - PCP Airguns 101: What are PCP Airguns?0.0(0 reviews)Not sure where to start? Tyler discusses the basics of Pre-Charged Pneumatic airguns. If you want to shoot 10 meter, field target, or hunt with airguns, PCPs are the next generation.
Episode 1 - PCP Airguns 101:What are PCP Airguns? Video Transcript: Welcome to the Pyramyd Insyder PCP 101 series. Today we're going to be helping you guys get a little bit more familiar with PCP airguns. PCP stands for pre-charge pneumatic. And what pre-charge pneumatic means is that the gun is pre-charged from an external source. So a hand pump, a tank, even a compressor. With high-pressure air, or nitrogen is also usable, to a specified pressure for each individual gun into a cylinder like this or a bottle on some guns. One of the reasons PCP air guns are so attractive to folks today is because there's a wide variety of things you can do with them. They come in calibers available from .177 all the way up to .50 cal, which means you can use them for 10-meter target shooting, plinking in the backyard, you can go all the way up to big bore hunting with them with a 45 in the .50 caliber. And their prices range too. Anywhere from a hundred and fifty dollars all the way up to four thousand dollars, so there's a gun to fit just about everybody's budget. Now let's take a look at some of the features you're gonna be finding on PCP airguns. There are many common features you'll find on airguns in general, not just PCPs. The stock, the barrel, the breech, your safety, the trigger mechanism, and of course a mounting rail for optics. But there are unique features to PCP airguns that you'll find as well. Probably the most notable features that are going to set PCP airguns apart from other types of airguns are the air cylinder and your fill port or your fill connection. Other features you might be seeing on PCP airguns are magazines, side levers or rear bolt actions for cocking the gun, shrouds to keep the noise levels low, and a lot of people like that on their airguns, you know it's one of the reasons why people buy them, because they're nice and quiet, and backyard friendly. This should give you a general idea of what some of the more common features on PCP airguns are. One of the most significant features that PCPs have over most of the rest of the market aside from their power capabilities, is the fact that there are many options to go multi-shot. So this you'll notice is a side lever breech, which we would consider more of a standard bolt-action style. But this is a 12-round magazine on this gun in particular, and they'll range anywhere from six or eight shots all the way up to 18. Magazine gives you the ability for quick follow-up shots and that's what's making the difference for those guys doing pest control or hunting. That's what they're really looking for and it's a huge advantage over your traditional break barrel or even some of your multi pumper or co2 guns as well. Now, of course, there are many other features we could talk about here, but this is going to give you a basic understanding of what a PCP rifle is. So when you're going ahead and looking at them on pyramydair.com, you have a better idea of what you're looking at and that's really important. On our next episode, we're going to be talking to you guys about fill methods. So stay tuned for that one and we'll see you guys then. |

 | How Airguns Work - Multi-Pump Pneumatic Air Rifles0.0(0 reviews)It's time to grow your airgun knowledge again and forget your carbon fiber tank! In this video learn exactly how the mechanics of a Multi-Pump Pneumatic Air Rifles work. Shop All Pump Air Rifles or Pump Air Pistols ***TRANSCRIPT*** The Seneca Dragonfly Multi-Pump Pneumatic Pellet rifle operates by means of a pump lever assembly that attaches to a piston rod. This is called the pump mechanism. Each time the pump mechanism is employed, it engages a piston assembly, which compresses a small amount of air into an air reservoir. The number of pumps executed by the user determines the amount of air stored in the air reservoir. The amount of air stored then determines the power output of the air rifle. Operating the Dragonfly is done in the following steps, beginning with lifting the bolts and pulling back. Doing so opens the breach and engages the trigger seer. These actions complete the cocking sequence before beginning to operate the pump mechanism. The user should engage the manual safety if it is not already engaged. Pulling the pump handle forward to its maximum angle and then pulling back to its original position creates the first pump. The Dragonfly can be pumped up to eight times for maximum power. Once pumping is completed and the breach open, either a single projectile or a magazine that allows for multiple projectiles can be inserted. After insertion is completed, the Bolt handle is then pushed forward and down, thus Loading a pellet into the barrel and making the rifle ready to fire. To complete the firing process, the user disengages the safety, takes aim, and pulls the trigger. The Seneca Dragonfly employs a single-stage nonadjustable trigger. Pulling the trigger disengages the sear, allowing the compressed air to escape from the firing valve, propelling the projectile from the barrel. The Seneca Dragonfly Pellet rifle employs a single-stage nonadjustable trigger. The trigger is held by a spring and sear. Pulling the trigger releases the sear, initiating the firing sequence. The Seneca Dragonfly Pellet rifle employs a manual cross Bolt safety. It is mechanically designed to serve as a button. Lateral force exerted on the button to either the right or left locks or unlocks the trigger mechanism when the button is slid to where no red coloring is showing, the trigger mechanism is blocked when the button is slid, exposing the red coloring. The trigger is unblocked.

 | Evertyhing you need to know about the Gauntlet 20.0(0 reviews)***Transcript*** Welcome to the Pyramid Insider. I'm Tyler Patner. And today we are going to be going in-depth on the Umarex Gauntlet 2 in. 22 caliber. Now, the Gauntlet two was announced right around just before summer of 2021. And obviously as the successor to the ever popular Gauntlet, it has a lot to live up to, and, Umarex, has done a pretty good job of enhancing the original gauntlet to give you quite a bit more power and also add in some other very much needed features that a lot of you guys asked for with the original Gauntlet. I think the best way to compare, though, and talk about some of these upgrades and enhancements is to pull out an original gauntlet. So I have that here. Now. Looking at the original Gauntlet compared to the Gauntlet two, you have some striking difference, obviously, in the looks of the stock. The stock is Umarex's tactical precision stock, and it has a lot of nice enhancements over this original Gauntlet one stock, the biggest one being a lot thinner, a lot easier in the hand, not as bulky answering a lot of the calls from folks out there that just didn't seem to love this stock. They've still kept the adjustable cheekpiece, and they've also added a number of m-lock slots onto the far end of the stock for your accessories, your bipods and what have you? One thing they have done away with, though, is this adjustment wheel for the cheekpiece. The cheekpiece piece on the Gauntlet two adjusts with two allen screws. Very simple to do, and it's cut out a considerable amount of weight. That's an important enhancement here as well. Umarex wanted to keep the weight of the gun right about the same as the original Gauntlet. And considering what they've added in a bigger bottle and a much beefier breach block assembly, you are talking about the same eight and a half pounds, which is very impressive. Now starting at the front of the gun. When we're talking about the differences between the original Gauntlet and the Gauntlet, too, let's start with that bottle. So on the original Gauntlet, you will remember in. 22 caliber, you are talking about a 13 cubic inch, 3000 PSI fill bottle with an 1100 PSI regulator. Now in the Gauntlet, too, they have nearly doubled the size of the bottle. This is a 24 cubic inch bottle, and the regulator pressure has been boosted to 1900 PSI. Here in the 22. It's a little bit higher in the 25. Just something to keep in mind there. Now again, the original Gauntlet filled the 3000 PSI, which is great for you. Hand pumpers. The biggest change here for those of you out there that maybe don't have a tank or a compressor yet is the Gauntlet two fills to a full 4500 PSI, so a much higher fill pressure. And they've done that not only to go along with that higher Reg pressure, but also to maintain the stellar shot count that the original Gauntlet was known for. They claim over 70 shots in the. 22 caliber here. Of course, we're going to go ahead and put it to the test over the chronograph. So we'll see how it comes in when it all shakes out. Now, another big change that they've made between the original Gauntlet and the two is the Bolt handle. Now, one of the big complaints with the original Gauntlet was it was kind of stiff cocking. If you were trying to pull it back like a Bolt action rifle, it can be a little difficult personally, not a big problem for me, but I understand why most folks had that issue. So what Umarex has done with the G Two is actually gives you an upgraded Bolt handle, which is nice and beefy. You have a nice neural end here. And they've also managed to reduce the caulking effort by about 15%. That's what they say. Anyway, I don't have a good way to measure it, but one thing I will tell you is that while it was a little stiff out of the box, we put about 1000 shots through this now and it is super smooth and a lot easier than the original. A little pro tip for you guys. If you're having trouble caulking this gun, put your thumb at the back of the action here, wrap a couple of fingers around that neural knob and just pull straight back. Super easy. If you try and operate this gun like a Bolt action rifle and just holding that Bolt, you're going to have some difficulty so that'll make your life a little bit easier. But this is a very nice upgrade for Umarex. Now, the last two changes we're going to talk about here are a bit more subtle. You've probably noticed already that the Gauntlet Two sports a Picatinny rail on top here. Personally, I like Picatinny mounts a lot. It's a little bit easier to swap on and off. Take it off if you need to travel. What have you? But the nice thing about this is, Umarex has actually secured this picatinny rails on with set screws. So the original Eleven millimeter Dovetail is still present. Now, what that's going to allow you to do is run your scope just a little bit lower to that board if you want to. Personally, I'm going to stick to the picatinny mounts. But like I said, it's a nice little option to have if you think you need it. The other change that they've made is to the Baffle system. Now. Same shroud set up. But obviously with the Gauntlet Two, you're talking about a lot more power. So without redesigning the Baffles, they would have had a much louder gun. So in order to keep that nice low sound profile that the original Gauntlet was known for, they've redesigned the Baffles, and you are still getting a very quiet experience will obviously put it on the sound meter for you and you'll see for yourself. But I think you will be impressed when we talk about how much power this is putting out and how little noise that's coming out of this thing. Now, the rest of the features on the G two are largely the same as what you had on the Gauntlet one. You still have your quick disconnect fill fitting, you have your pressure gauge on the other side. Your trigger safety is the same setup. You still have the same trigger, which can be adjusted, but you do need to remove the stock. You also have your de-gassing port and the tool for that is the same cocking function is the same as well. So when you want to go ahead and load your magazine, you go ahead, throw that Bolt into the back section. You take your ten round Mag and 22 and you load it right into the breach there from the right hand side. Very simple. And these are the same Mags so you can reuse your original Gauntlet Mags, which is a nice touch. Also decocking procedure exactly the same. You hold that Bolt back, you go ahead, pull the trigger and you are safe. Decocked. Good to go. Now again, as I mentioned before, the cheek piece is still adjustable, although the method to do that is a bit different, and your sling swivel studs are also a bit different on this version. You have a QD mounting point at the back and then here at the front, you're going to want to use one of those mlock slots to get an adapter and Mount your sling that way. Other than that, that's about the differences, the similarities between the one and the two. Now let's get to the nitty gritty stuff and head out to the range and see how the Gauntlet Two performs. All right, so accuracy on the Gauntlet Two and. 22 caliber. Pretty solid results overall. You have the JSB standard Monsters. Now, these are the 25.4s, the heavyweights, not the redesigns, though. Just under an inch here for all ten shots moving on to JSB 18.13. You can see I threw one there, but you have a seven, eight inch group in total and three quarters of an inch nine out of ten. Very solid. The H&N Baracuda matches also did pretty well at a one inch group as well, but the very best is the monster redesigned JSP five, eight inch for all ten shots. This is a stellar group, exactly what we've come to expect from the Gauntlet line of guns, and it's going to create a ton of power. But speaking of, let's put the gun over the Chronograph and see what these are doing. So taking our JSB Jumbo Monster redesigns over the Chronograph with the Gauntlet Two, you are looking at over 90 shots on a fill from 4500 PSI down to the regression of 1900 PSI. That's really impressive. They're only rating the gun for 70 or over. So to get another 20 on top of that's really phenomenal, obviously. Meaning you don't need to fill this gun all the way up to 4500 PSI to get a ton of shots. So for you, hand pumpers out there, for those of you running on setups that maybe don't output 45 or 43. 50 or something like that, you're still going to get plenty of shots, but obviously almost 44 foot pounds of energy coming out of those monster redesigns with an extreme spread of just 10ft/second and the standard deviation of just 1.7ft/second, the numbers are very impressive. And if you compare them back to the original Gauntlet, you are getting more shots. And obviously that's coming with a higher fill pressure. But you're getting way more power and way more shots. And really, that's what the Gauntlet two is doing for you. It is building upon what was already pretty impressive. So let's run down the Gauntlet two here. Personally, guys, I think, Umarex, has done a great job of following up the original Gauntlet very hard thing to do with such a game-changing rifle, but they've taken this in a very cool direction. They've created a real powerhouse airgun at just a few dollars more, right around $400 or so. This gun packs a ton of power, a ton of shots as you saw into a pretty nice package. The gun is still eight and a half pounds. It is on the heavier side of the market, but it's not too bad to manage get around with and the stock changes. While personally, the aesthetic is not my favorite, I like the color. I just don't like the blockiness of the stock, but it does feel good and it handles well. Also, I love the incorporation of the unlock slots, the fact that they've still managed to keep it quiet while upping the power to nearly 45 foot pounds of energy in 22 is pretty insane. And like I said before, the shot count is phenomenal as well. And most importantly, this thing is damn accurate. Basically, a little over a half inch group of 45 yards is stellar. I mean, that's exactly the high standard that the original Gauntlet set that the Gauntlet Two is certainly carrying on. So overall, for me guys, the Gauntlet, too, is a definite winner. One I'm glad to see hit the market, and one, I hope you will all check out if you are looking to get into the PCP game and looking for a gun that can really reach out and touch something with authority, as always.

 | Umarex Gauntlet PCP Air Rifle0.0(0 reviews)PCP airgunners long for affordable guns that are consistent as well as powerful, and Umarex has answered the call! Video Transcript Below: Welcome to the Pyramyd Insyder. I’m Tyler Patner. Today, we have probably the most highly anticipated product of 2017, the Umarex Gauntlet in .22 caliber. Let's get to it. Alright guys, I'm really excited we're bringing you the Gauntlet here in .22 caliber, and this is a production gun. We've seen a lot of other content out there on pre-production models. I've had the opportunity to shoot a couple iterations of the pre-production guns, and they've all been phenomenal. They set a very high standard and we had the opportunity to put one of those guns on video for you guys, but we chose not to release that content because, quite frankly, I don't care about what a pre-production gun can do. It all matters if the production gun that's going to get into your guys' hands can do it too so that's what we're doing today. We're gonna take a look at the Gauntlet in .22 caliber here and see if it lives up to the high standard that the pre-production models have set. Alright guys, starting at the front of the Gauntlet, of course, one of the hallmark features of the gun, fully shrouded barrel, it's a 23 and a half inch barrel. Underneath this full-length shroud, it's about a 28-inch shroud unit and we do have kind of a mono course style baffle system, so it's not like some guns we've seen where their individual baffles are inside. There it's actually a two-piece unit that comes together which means you really shouldn't have any problems with clipping or anything like that. So, overall that should be a very good design and the gun is very quiet. We're gonna, of course, sound test it for you guys, and see how performs there, moving back under the barrel, we do have a 13 cubic inch bottle. Now, this bottle translates to about 200 plus CC's, just a little over that actually 200 CC mark of air capacity, and it's a 3,000 psi fill, so a standard fill in a very similar air size to what you have on like your Benjamin Marauders and guns in that kind of range. You do have your gauge on the right-hand side of the gun and then we do have a male quick disconnect fitting on the left-hand side of the gun. This is really nice, really convenient. You have plenty of space to fit your female QD in there on the end of your hose. Whether you're pumping or filling with a tank, this is going to be super easy to connect to. This cage portion actually does remove so you can remove the bottle and you remove it via the swivel stud. So, you take this full stud completely out and then you just kind of squeeze the cage portion and bring it off, the bottle is actually integral to the regulator, so you can actually purchase regulated bottles for this gun to fit right on here, and our Air Venturi 13 cubic inch bottle does fit right onto this gun. You can purchase it right now if you wanted to have a spare cylinder going with you. One thing I do want to note though is that it does come with this degassing tool and you do have to degas as the cylinder to go ahead and remove it. So, to do that you would just insert the degassing key right here and then twist all the way around. You'll hear it go, it vents out the barrel, so make sure your unloaded with the magazine removed when you go ahead and degas that cylinder, and of course, you guys will note that I did say it is a regulated bottle which does mean the Gauntlet should have regulated performance. What that means is that we should get very consistent shot-to-shot velocities as well as a lot of shots. They're claiming about 60 shots on a 3000 psi filled down to that 1150 psi regulator pressure. We're gonna obviously put it over the chronograph and see if that holds true. We'll find out the pre-production guns that we've shot all hold up to that claim so we'll find out if the production guns do as well. Taking a closer look at the breech, guys, we do have a repeater action, so you do have a 10-round magazine in .22, same in .177. I have confirmed that the Marauder magazines will work in these, very nice magazine. We know it's a reliable system. They've been used for a long time and overall I've had no problems around in this magazine, no jams, anything like that. The guns do also come with a single shot tray which is nice if you want to get just, milk a little bit more, accuracy out of the gun and the way you load those is via a side bolt action so a nice big bolt here to go ahead and grab onto, simply goes up and back and then you're gonna slide it down into that rear position to go ahead and insert your magazine or your single-shot tray. They have a nice audible snap in when you go ahead and put them in and then when you're ready to go you just simply push the bolt forward and you're all set, really easy to operate system. The gun decocks like just about any other PCP does. You simply hold the bolt back, go ahead pull the trigger, you hear that click and then you can slowly slide it forward, you're all good to go. The safety dropping down here is a flip style safety so that is your safe position right there and when you're ready to go hot, you just simply flip that forward and you're set to go. We do have a metal trigger blade as well and Umarex says that via the manual that it is adjustable. We didn't adjust it for this video here. I can tell you guys it has a pretty long take-up, but it comes to that consistent stop for that supposed second stage wall, if you want to say it that way, although, again, with that long take-up, calling it a two-stage trigger out-of-the-box maybe not so true, but it doesn't break that heavy. It's right around three pounds and again very consistent when you get to that second stage wall so I don't have any problems with this trigger as it's set up. I do know it can go lighter as well as have a more defined first second stage, so that's good to know. It's capable of that and coming up to the top of the breech. We do have an 11 millimeter dovetail and it is a split breech design so you do have a dovetail section in front of and behind your magazine, all depends on the length of scope you're gonna be using because we're using a 3 to 12 compact swat-style leaper scope today, you really don't need to go ahead and mount it both forward and backwards to get that proper eye relief, and you'll note that we have plenty of room. I'll show you here to go ahead and get our magazine in without causing any contact between the gun and the scope, but that is something to consider. You're probably going to want to go with high rings with most optics on this gun just to make sure you can clear that magazine, and of course, we do have a fully synthetic stock on this gun with an adjustable cheek piece, which is an awesome feature to see, especially for a gun in this 300 dollar price range. Rubber butt pad on the back really cool, note by the way you simply loosen the swivel stud here on the bottom to go ahead and adjust this via the thumb wheel and this is actually your vertical up-and-down adjustment of the cheek piece and then when you get it locked in and in that position that's best for you in your scope height, you're going to want to go ahead and then crank this clockwise to tighten it down and that's going to lock you in place, really nice feature. Overall guys, the Gauntlet feels pretty nice and balanced, is quite well out there, I find that this kind of swooped out section is where balance is best for me. Offhand, you are talking about roughly eight, eight and a half pound gun without a scope and a 46 inch overall length which is on the long side, but it is very quiet and we do need that extra shroud length to keep it that way. Overall, really like the feel though it does have that kind of cheap plasticy feel that a lot of synthetic stock guns do, but so overall pretty impressed, but I'm really excited to get this out to the range guys and see what it can do on paper and over the chronograph so let's head out and check out those results. Alright guys, we decided to take the Gauntlet straight out to 45 yards. There's really no point in testing really any PCP closer than that for the most part and the results are pretty good. We tested about 10 pellets in the Gauntlet and we found that 3 did better than most so we're talking about 1-inch groups is what my personal wanting was in this gun, you know, if we could do a 1 inch 10 shot group at 45 yards, I consider that a pretty solid grouping, not great but pretty solid, and the predator GTO is delivered right at about an inch for 10 shots, not too bad, but we definitely can do better. The JSP 15.89s you got a 3/4 inch group. They're very tight, little spread there, the regulator is certainly doing its job keeping those shots consistent and the H&N field target trophy is also coming in right at about 3/4 of an inch so pretty good groups, again 10 shot groups. So, they're gonna be a little bit bigger than they would be if they were 5, but the Gauntlet could certainly deliver out a distance 45 yards sub 1-inch groups, pretty impressed with the Gauntlet. So, with our most accurate pellet the JSB exact jumbo 15.89 grain, we're looking at an average feet per second of about 790 789, which is right about 22 foot-pounds. Now, the important part here, Umarex claims 60 shots per fill and they hit that number on the money from a 3,000 psi fill down to that 1100 psi regulated mark with an extreme spread at 18 feet per second and a standard deviation of only 3.3 feet per second. The numbers are pretty impressive here, guys, it's a little on the large spread side for a regulated gun, but still anything under that 25 foot per second mark really isn't going to impact your accuracy downrange, out to about 50-60 yards so gotta say, these numbers are looking very impressive and exactly what Umarex is touting. Alright guys, there's not a lot I can say for the Gauntlet that it doesn't say for itself on paper, very impressive offering in a three hundred dollar package. Quite frankly, this is mind blowing a little bit to see where the airgun industries come to in such a short time and for Umarex is first offering into the PCP market. This is definitely one you're gonna want to have an eye on, again 300 bucks, you really can't go wrong here. You're talking about three-quarter-inch 10-shot group accuracy at forty-five yards. You got decent power. It's a little underpowered in my opinion for a .22 right about 22 foot-pounds with those 15.89s, but you're getting sixty shots on a fill, guys, that's unreal, okay, and of course, the fact that it's regulated means you're gonna have very consistent results as well which is why we have such good accuracy out of this gun. It's quiet. It's accurate multi-shot capability. The trigger can be adjusted. The stock's adjustable. There's a lot of features packed into this gun.

 | Air Venturi Booster0.0(0 reviews)The Air Venturi Power Booster creates independence from conventional fill sources. Finally, freedom from the SCUBA shop! The Power Booster is capable of operating in conjunction with an existing shop compressor to provide up to 4500 psi Air Venturi Power Booster Transcript: Welcome to the Pyramyd Insyder, I’m Tyler Patner. Today we’re going to be taking a look at a brand new product for filling your PCPs from Air Venturi, the Power Booster. Now, the Power Booster’s pretty unique, this is a very interesting new product from Air Venturi for two reasons. One because they just came out with a compressor, so wasn’t really sure where this was gonna fall, but after using it, I think you guys are gonna be pretty impressed. This is a booster, as the name suggests, not a compressor, so a stand-alone compressor is just that, a stand-alone unit, you plug it into the wall, it is capable of generating up to 4500 PSI, and we know the Air Venturi one operates very quickly, you guys have seen it in use in our PCP 101 videos. Now, the Booster though, this is a very intriguing product. It does not require electricity, most of the other boosters on the market do require electricity so that’s a very nice feature here that you don’t need. All that this requires is first stage input. So what I mean by that is a shop compressor that’s capable of generating 60-90 PSI and hopefully a flow rate of 5 SCFM or more. So this unit is gonna be perfect if you already have a shop compressor, but maybe can’t afford to get up into that price point of a stand-alone compressor and that’s really where this falls in. Obviously it’s gonna operate a little bit slower than a standard stand-alone compressor unit, but still a very manageable piece of equipment that is very simple to operate. So let’s check out what all comes in this package. So going over the parts of the booster, you obviously have your on/off switch, your output adjustment screw, as well as your air pressure gauge on the top of the unit. And just so you guys know, the gauge does read in PSI and bar, which is a very helpful thing. Looking at the front of the unit, you guys will notice there’s a lot going on here. The first thing I want to point out is in between the oil feed there and the moisture filter on the input is your oil plug screw, and we’ll show you what that is needed for in just a second. But very important to note that so you’re not trying to twist off the bottles or anything. We do have a male intake connector, just like you’d find on a you know any of your air tools that you’re trying to plug into your shop compressor at home. Then you have an input gauge as well, which is going to tell you how much pressure is coming into the booster, and then when it’s operating, it will also tell you how much pressure is being used per stroke, which is also a nice little interesting feature. You’ll also notice on the front of the unit we have a fill hose as well as a female quick disconnect fitting, and in that female quick disconnect fitting you’re going to find a test plug as well. And the reason that there’s a test plug in there is so you can calibrate the unit for other PSIs outside of that normal kind of 3,000 PSI range, you might be filling a gun too. And of course, as well you’re gonna have your bleed valve. And on the sides as well as the top, you’re gonna have a couple of handles, so if you want to carry it on the sides or on the top. The unit is about 23 pounds in total, so you do have a few different options for transporting. First thing we’re gonna do is take a flat head screwdriver, and go ahead and loosen up that oil plug screw. Now the booster comes with a little bottle for oil. Now you’re going to want to get that full compressor oil, is what we’re recommending in here. Just gonna go ahead and fill that up halfway or more. Now obviously you don’t want it to overflow, you can’t fill it too much, as long as you keep it in there. And then you just go ahead and tighten that screw back down turning clockwise until it’s nice and tight. Alright, so looking at our output adjustment, the Allen key is going to come with the booster unit, and you’ll notice your booster is going to come preset at 3,000 PSI, give or take 10% at the factory. Now you will also notice that the markings on the outside, the 2,000, 3,000, and 4,000 marking are approximations. So that is good to know. And also the nice feature that this has is it's going to dead end at 4500. So not only is it going to come preset at close to 3000, but it’s gonna dead end at that 4500 mark. So, again, approximations on the outside, what you’re gonna want to do is once you get that setting found, for whatever pressure you’re trying to fill to whether it be 3,000, 2,000, 4,500, go ahead and make a little mark on that outside grey ring there so you always have that quick reference point to go back to adjust your output. So the first thing we’re going to do is make sure the on/off switch is pulled up to the off position before we go ahead and put pressure in. Next, you’re going to attach your hose from the air compressor to the male input fitting on the booster. And you see that gauge actually come to life there, um once we have air pressure flowing in, we have about 75 or 80 PSI coming in, again, anything in between 60 and 90 is gonna be more than enough. And then you’re gonna wanna make sure your bleed valve is closed, just hand tighten that’s all you need. Then we’re gonna go ahead pull back the collar on the quick disconnect fitting on the end of the hose, make sure it’s nice and tight on the end of the gun, and that the collar is forward. You notice that we’re starting at about 170 bar on this fill and it’s a 500 cc tank and you see how quickly the air pressure in the hose builds to match the pressure in the gun, and obviously sped up quite a bit here, but gonna come in just under 4 minutes, and we’ll see that on/off switch pop up when it’s ready. Then we’re gonna go ahead and bleed the pressure in the line. And then simply disconnect your hose, pulling the collar back on the quick disconnect fitting on the end of the hose. Alright, so you guys have seen it, this filled the Sumatra with no problem from about 170 bar all the way up to 200 or so, pretty quickly, about 4 minutes, you know topping off guns this guy’s gonna be perfect. It can also do your small bottles, big bottles, it has that capability as well, obviously it’s going to take quite a bit longer with the larger cylinder size you go to, but overall, pretty stout unit, functions well. As long as you have a compressor at home that’s capable of that 60 to 90 PSI and 5 SCFM, you are gonna be good to go. This unit is gonna make your life a heck of a lot easier. So check it out on pyramydair.com, for the Insyder, I’m Tyler Patner, we’ll see you guys at the next one. |

Hatsan Barrage PCP Air Rifle Video Transcript Try this guy. Now that my friends is an airgun. Gee willikers, thanks mister. The Hatsan Barrage will in fact turn you from a boy into a man. This thing has it all. First of all, comes in .177 and .22. It literally is built to be accessorized. Let's take a look at it. You can adjust everything, just every single thing on this gun. You can adjust the butt pad back here. We've got a rubber butt pad, you can adjust it not only in and out, but also you can adjust it out this way if you've got longer arms. The raised cheekpiece right there can go up and down. As you can see right here, this one my favorite things about Hatsans and that has on both sides where that holds your extra pellet magazine. This thing comes with three magazines. Three magazines. In the .22 they hold 12 shots, in the .177 they hold 14 shots, so once you’re locked and loaded, boom that's 36 shots without even blinking an eye. These guys are getting so smart, what looks like kind of a Picatinny Weaver rail is both. It's 11 millimeter and a weaver rail all in one so no matter what mount you have for your scope they work. I actually tried a weaver it was too short to go over the magazine. I grabbed another scope that happened to have 11 millimeters on it and bam now I've got a scope. Now it doesn't come with a scope, but it does come with a couple attachments so this would be your, your rear sights which are adjustable for windage and elevation. And then the front side here, which just kinda locks right on like so. Slides on, screw right there, you tighten on and then you're good to go. So it's got a two-stage just books trigger, the safety’s right here. I'm not gonna lie to you, I don't love the safety, it's in the place where I like it the most but it's very thin, and it's metal so when you try to flip it like that it kind of hurts your finger now. Yeah I'm kind of a sissy I guess but I don't love it. Other than that, this gun has everything. Shrouded barrel, super quiet. It also has this new technology that keeps the extra air from leaking so you get maximum amount of shots with the air you have in your cylinder. 500 cc tank right here, up front the bottles, bottle shape, and it's a semi-auto. Let's take a look, we'll check some accuracy at 25, 50, and I'm gonna go ahead and reach out to 75 and see what I can do. All right so real quick, I'm going to show you how to load these magazines. They're a little tricky so I just want to make sure you get it. When you have your magazine and it's empty, you rotate it down and the wheel will move with you. If you go up, the wheel won't move and you can go up, see in the wheel doesn't move, so that's not good, you want the wheel to move with you. It goes all the way until it stops. I could be wrong here, but this is how I figured it out. Then you drop a pellet in the bottom, you can't drop on the top, if you drop on the bottom skirt first, and then when you move to the next space it now holds the wheel from moving anymore and then you just drop them in normal. For some reason you've got to do that first one backwards to stop the wheel from turning so you put the rest under there. if I'm wrong somebody let me know, that's what we figured out, that's what worked for me, and I've tried everything under the sun. So 856, I'm using a 15-grain pellet. What's amazing to me is all you can hear is the mechanical noise of the gun. Like the barrel literally gets rid of all of the psh that comes out of a lot of PCPs. Let's take another five shots, maybe a little quicker. Now the cool thing right there. I know I'm empty. When I'm empty, the breech opens up and it stays back. Just like that, pop it out. Pull one of my other rotary magazines out like so, pop it in, and away we go. Let's try some, let's try out a 50-yard shall we, see what it does. Obviously at 25 yards very accurate. So there's a pretty, your five-shot group of 50 yards I mean, not bad, my some of my pellets, it's windy out there. Clearly some of them moving around. You know I'm consistently getting right around 850 and change feet per second and a .22. Let me take a couple more shots of that target and see what if we put a whole magazine there what happens. I mean that is that's fun. There are not many semi-auto PCPs with this kind of accuracy. All right got it refilled, she takes 250 bar max which is about 3,600, a little bit more than 3600 psi. 75 yards and let's roll. 75 yards with a .22 or using a 15 grain pellet and there's some flyers out there, I'm not gonna lie, that may be shooter error. I've shot enough paper, you've seen what the gun can do, you know about it. Let's totally see what you can do with the semi-auto intended. I don't know, all blacked out, super tactical, sweet looking sexy rifle, and an all blacked out, tactical looking, sweet sexy truck. You thinking what I'm thinking? Oh Roger! That my friends is the Hatsan Barrage semi-auto .22 and .177. Comes with three mag clips, comes with a carrying case, comes with every opportunity to make this gun be and look exactly how you wanted to. It's awesome, it's fun. Do me a favor, keep shooting safe, go to Pyramyd Air, get this gun. This has been the Pyramyd Outsyder. I'm Rossi Morreale from American Airgunner, we'll see you next time. |

 | Pyramyd Insyder at SHOT Show 2018 - Part 20.0(0 reviews)The Pyramyd Insyder was all over SHOT Show 2018 scouring the floor for the latest air rifles and air pistols from cutting-edge airgun manufacturers like AirForce, Benjamin, Diana, Hatsan and RAW. Pyramyd Insyder: SHOT Show 2018 -Part 2 Video Transcript Hey guys we're here at the Air Force booth SHOT Show 2018 looking at the new Texan Carbine. This guy's going to be available in 308, 357, and 457. 24 and three-quarter inch barrel, I'm very excited to try some air bolts in this. You know we put together our own little Texan carbine on the Insyder a few months ago, but this is gonna be from the factory ready to go. Another new announcement on the Texan line, you got the SS coming in 308 and 357 as well, in addition to the 457 that we've already looked at. So very cool new stuff from Air Force but there's more, let's check it out. Hey guys, so still at the Air Force booth, here's the new big announcement. Rapid air weapons out of Tennessee so that means we are going to be seeing American-made, and these are currently American-made, but American-made rapid air weapons guns through Air Force. On top of that, they are also offering the rapid line which harkens back to the old Theobin days in England. These are available in 177 all the way through 35 caliber. These are some of the finest built guns you will find anywhere in the world. Powerful, accurate, they do just about whatever you want to do, they got a ton of features. You got carbon shrouds, electric shrouds, carbon bottles, different stock configurations. This is going to be one to watch for in 2018. Very excited about this one. We're gonna head out onto the floor and see what else we can find. That's about it from the Air Force booth, we'll catch you in a few minutes. Alright guys we're here at the Crosman booth 2018 Shot Show. One of the big new things they got coming out here, this is the Benjamin Traveler Compressor. This is going to be able to fill your guns from 0 to 4,500 psi, it is capable of that. For those of you guys with the higher fill pressure guns, they're telling me this does a Marauder from zero to full in about eight minutes or Discovery in like three and a half. So you have the compressor itself we can see, got a filter, a gauge here, you obviously got your quick disconnect on the end of the hose, looks like we got fan cooling. Guys this looks pretty simple, this is going to be plug and go. So definitely one we're gonna keep an eye on here in 2018, the Benjamin Traveler Compressor. We got a couple other things here at the Crosman booth to check out, stay with us. Got the Benjamin Fortitude here. This one has sent a few waves through the industry when it got announced. A very exciting new gun from Crosman Benjamin here. So basically what we're looking at guys, you're looking at a Maximus stock, looks like a Maximus Discovery trigger and air cylinder, except there's a regulator inside, so you're talking about getting very consistent and also a ton of shots. They're saying up to 70 or 80 and 22 caliber which is really impressive, and then it looks like we have basically a Marauder top portion of the gun here so. Breach in shroud assembly as well and they're talking about a retail price point of $300 on this guy, so this is definitely going to be out there to contend with the Stormriders and the Gauntlets of the world, and obviously bearing that Crossman Benjamin name, we're expecting it that it's going to be very very good, very reliable. 3,000 psi fill, so a little bit different than our Discovery or our Maximus here, but featuring that same trigger. We know what we're gonna get out of this guys, but I can't wait to test it. This one's gonna be one to watch. Very lightweight gonna be really durable. This gun may very well take that $300 price range by storm here. Very excited to see what this gun can do. Alright guys last thing we're gonna check out here at the Crosman booth, this is the new mag Fire. This is a multi-shot break barrel so Crosman's coming to that party as well now. This is actually really interesting. So you have a kind of pistol grip in traditional almost AR M4 style buttstock here with a deep forend which is kind of interesting as well, make offhand shooting a little bit easier, but really the meat and potatoes of this gun guys, is this multi-shot mechanism. So you're gonna break the barrel down, and then when you get it back up, you are actually going to work this bolt-action system here on a ten round magazine, looks like a Marauder mag to me. So that's gonna be very interesting, certainly a lot quicker follow-up shots than you're gonna get out of a traditional break barrel. We're very excited to see this one come through. This one we didn't even know about beforehand, so it should be a very exciting product in 2018. We're gonna definitely test this one out for you on the Insyder guys, stay tuned. So sadly we did not make it to the Hatsan booth with enough time in the day to spare. That said Hatsan's got a bunch of new products that we definitely need to take a look at. So on top of three new guns that we're gonna cover here, they also had a compressor, as well as a couple hand pumps. They really come out with a full line of HPA equipment here which is really exciting to see from Hatsan. That said, the three guns are gonna want to look at here, the Hercules Bully, the Flash, and the FlashPup. Now the Flash that you're seeing right now very impressive little guns, six pounds they're saying up to 40-foot pounds in 25 caliber and somewhere in the mid to high 30s and 22. We're gonna have one of those on the Insyder to review for you guys soon which we're really excited about, but they also came out with that FlashPup that you're seeing now so basically same action just set in to a bullpup stock, and then you got the Bully that is a bottle version of the Hercules in a bullpup stock. This thing is going all the way up to 45 caliber, tons of shot count, and they even told us that they're gonna make the cocking effort easier on it, which was a big complaint on the original Hercules, so we're really excited to see these new guns from Hatsan in 2018. Hey guys SHOT Show 2018, we're back with Pyramyd Insyder. We are at the Diana booth, some very cool new stuff from Diana and Germany. This is the Skyhawk, their bullpup gun. Now it's a little interesting, I know this might look familiar to some of you guys, this gun is actually going to be fully assembled in Germany with a lot of upgraded features, obviously, you can already tell this is a Manelli stock. They're gonna have a couple different stock styles, a couple different action finishes, but I can tell you this is regulated, should be very powerful, very quiet. I'm really looking forward to checking this one out. Nice new bullpup offering from Diana and also for those of you that are hardcore about getting a fully German made gun, we have the P1000 Evo 2. Now this is going to come in a couple different stock configurations, should be very very accurate, I believe it's like a twelve or fourteen round magazine. Beautiful looking wood on these guns here and of course they're gonna be very accurate, regulated, very excited to see these in 2018. Hey guys back at the Diana booth, the Bandit pistol. This is going to be one to watch for in 2018. You have a PCP pistol, this is totally very comfortable, ambidextrous, so left-handed right-handed shooters, not gonna have a problem with this, this is going to have a magazine, as well as a single shot tray that you see here. We got the target site option here but with an 11 millimeter dovetail, looks like this comes off no problem, so you're going to be able to mount an optic on it, and I'm hearing that they're gonna have a lot of updates for this as well going forward, including a suppressor, and probably, maybe, some stock options too, so we'll definitely be on the lookout to see more from the Diana Bandit in 2018. Guys back at the Diana booth. Now this is a new, updated version of the Stormrider obviously you've seen our review of it, it was a great gun then, Diana's making it better, they are committed to making their products better. We're gonna have a fixed suppressor on the end of it here as well, and this is the most exciting part for me, an updated trigger guys. This is going to be a two-stage adjustable trigger and I will just show you here, I cock the gun back. So very very light, first stage travel comes to a clean wall, solid break. That's feeling like pound and a half to me, maybe two, a very very nice trigger on this model here. We're very excited to get these in, but very cool. They're also working on a regulator and a 25 caliber version. So the Storm Rider's going places stay tuned in 2018. We were about to leave the Diana booth and then they told me there was one other thing I had to see. This is the Diana Chaser, this is going to be a co2 gun suppressor. Looks like you got open sights here with the ability to mount an optic on an 11-millimeter dovetail rail, single shot tray with a magazine option, and of course, this nice little lightweight carbine stock. Guys this comes into the shoulder really nice, very lightweight, this is going to be a great backpacking gun and, again, 112 grams co2 cartridge, so you're gonna be looking at, you know that summer pesting season, this is exactly what you're going to want to have. They're talking about a pretty low retail price point here $50-$60 bucks, this could be a very very hot item coming in 2018. Check it out soon. |

 | Pyramyd Air Insyder: 7 Tips About Airgun Ammo0.0(0 reviews)***TRANSCRIPT*** Welcome to the Pyramyd Insyder. I'm Tyler Patner. And today we're going to be covering seven things that you need to know about air gun Ammo. Now, if you're new to air guns, this video is for you, we're going to be deep diving a little bit into the various calibors, the different types of Ammo options that are out there, what they're good for, what they're not. If you're an experienced air Gunner, maybe this video isn't for you, but if you stick around, you might learn something. Let's do this. Now, a lot of folks ask, how many different calibers of Ammo does Pyramid Air sell? Well, the short answer is eight. We have 177, 20, 22, 25, 30, 35, 45, and 50. The long answer is a bit more complicated than that. We also have 308. You have a couple of different sizes of 45 Ammo, so it's actually a little more than eight. But eight is what we're going to focus on today. And one of the common questions we get, especially with the growing popularity of air gun hunting, is what is a big bore round? What calibers does that reference? So basically, folks, anything from 177 up to 25 is considered small bore. Now, personally, I consider 30 and most 35 calibers in a mid bore category, but really, anything that is a big bore. We're talking about 35 and larger. And right now, your predominant guns are going to be 35, 45 and 50 caliber in that big bore category. Now, the third thing you need to know are the different pellet shapes that are out there. Now, this is kind of excluding round balls or BB's. Your first one is going to be your domed pellet. Now, this is also referenced as a round nose pellet. These are great for target shooting, also good for hunting as well. You have hollow points up next, like this JSB Hades here. And these are going to be best suited for hunting. Good expansion, usually out of most of your hollow point designs. You also have pointed pellets, which are probably the least common pellet, but a nice point there obviously made for penetration. And then, of course, you have your flat pellets, flat nose or wad cutter. Now, these are really purpose for target shooting and punching clean holes in paper. And number four, we're going to talk about BBS. Now, most folks think BB's are strictly 177 caliber little steel ball bearings. That's not quite right. We have a couple of other materials out there that are typically used for BB's. On top of your steel and zinc, you have the HNN Excite Smart Shot BB's. Now, this is actually a lead core, copper coated BB, so much like a copper jacketed bullet. This is going to deform quite nicely and flatten, mostly when you shoot a hard target. So this is what we would consider a low ricochet BB. And you also have these Dust Devils right here from Air Venturi made in the USA that actually are frangible. And what that means is that they break apart when they hit a hard target. And these are really cool because it's a very safe training tool for those BB guns out there. You can shoot your steel, you get the nice ring, but you don't have to worry about shooting your eye out like Ralphy, ricochet is not a concern with these guys. So BB's have definitely developed over the last couple of years. This is relatively recent, despite them being around for so long and one other tidbit about BB's, they are a little bit smaller than their 177 caliber counterparts in the Pellet world. So just something to know if you're trying to use BB's and a Pellet gun, pellets and a BB gun doesn't always work. So keep that in mind as well. At the five spot lead free pellets. Now, most pellets out there these days are lead based pellets, almost pure lead for the most part. But you do have your non lead option, like the Predator GTO line of Pellets, the H&N Green line of pellets as well. And there are a handful of others. And these are great for those of you that are trying to be a little bit eco conscious. Or maybe if you're worried about a young shooter having lead exposure, things like that, these are what those lead free pellets are going to be great for. They're usually made out of tin, zinc, a couple of other materials as well. They can be a little barrel particular, so something to keep in mind, you do want to test them, especially for those of you that are going to be using them for small game hunting, and they are usually a bit lighter. So I don't tend to recommend them in use in spring piston and gas piston guns, although there are some exceptions to that rule. But for CO2 guns for your PCPs, they are absolutely phenomenal. Your multi pumps as well. They're a great option for those of you that are looking to get the lead out. Now at number six, we're going to talk about slugs. Historically, in the air gun world, slugs are really referring to big boar ammo like this. 45 Cal here, and they come in different shapes, of course, but in the recent past the last couple of years or so, small bore slugs have become a real thing in the air gun world. This is a. 25 caliber H&N HP slug here and really great option. But H&N JSB and a bunch of other manufacturers have come to the plate with small bore slugs in 177 all the way up to 30 caliber that offer you a higher ballistic coefficient than your Pellet counterparts. And these are really great for PCPs. That higher BC means you're going to get more retained energy and velocity down range. And they're really phenomenal for reaching out and touching things at those long distances. Whether it's pest control or just general target shooting as well. They buck the wind really well. And if you have a gun that shoots them, they can be a real advantage of distance. Now. Last but certainly not least, one of my favorite things in the air gun ammo world are arrows. Yes, you heard me, right. Arrows from air guns. It's a thing, and it's a thing you need to be aware of now. This is a Seneca air Bolt. This is a. 45 caliber. These guys will fit in most of your 35, 45 and 50 caliber PCP air guns and shoot very fast. I'm talking over 500ft/second. They are awesome. There are also a host of other air guns from companies like FX, Hatsan, Umarex, Benjamin, where they have Arrow systems that slide over a barrel. So a little bit different than this AirBolt here, but shoot just as fast. Awesome. Awesome use of air gun technology to fling an arrow. Really cool something you need to check out, especially if you're into big game hunting. Thanks for joining us today. As we covered seven things that you should know about air gun Ammo. Hopefully, you learned something. If you're new to air guns, I'm sure this was a lot to take in. There's even more stuff that we could go in depth on, but wanted to keep it relatively high level overview for you guys. So like I said, hopefully you learned something. Hopefully you enjoyed the video. We appreciate you a ton for watching. Don't forget. As always to like comment and subscribe.
