Things I liked:

I purchased the wood stock Air Venturi Avenger, I purchased a pump from Velvor. Just pumped it up yesterday and shot it for the first time. Started sighting in scope at 25 yds. I can cover 5 shots with end of index finger. The rifle has no recoil and I purchased a moderator off of eBay and the rifle is real quiet. This is the moderator, Custom Monocore Vented Baffle for Air Venturi Avenger & Umarex Origin Air Rifles. I am going to have to contact the seller because I had to do a modification to get it to fit but it worked well. I purchased Crossman .22 hollow points locally and they shoot real well. I sure like the magazine and the rifle has all the adjustments externally plus 2 gauges for the air. I recommend this rifle.

Things I would have changed:

nothing

What others should know:

Pyramid Air has the best price

Things I liked:

the gun shoots great. I have a range at my house from 50 yards, 60 yards, 70 yards and 80 yards. I shoot tight groups at all distances. I bought the Avenger in the .22 cal. and the 25 cal. The .22 was in the plastic stock and ended up having to send it back and bought the wood stock version. WAY BETTER a much better well made gun. I have added barrel bands and my shot groups improved a lot. At 50 yards I now have two groups, one group of 10 shots and the other group of 5 shots and both groups can be covered by a dime. VERY impressed. The first barrel bands I purchased was the slip on type with no way to tighten. They would slide up and down the barrel, no bueno. I bought the second type that have grub screws at the top and bottom that make the shroud and the air barrel solid. POE does not change when you handle the gun by the barrel.

Things I would have changed:

The only complaint I have is when filling my gun I have to unscrew the moderator to get the quick connect to attach. Even with the DonnyfL adapter there isn't room. If I really force it I can get it on but it scratches up the moderator and I still have to unscrew the moderator almost all the way off. does anyone know of a 90 degree quick connect in 1/8".

What others should know:

Barrel bands that tighten down solid really tighten up your groups.

    Things I liked:

    Accuracy!! I rarely write online reviews but had to on this Air rifle. At first I was skeptical about the 5 star reviews and some online videos, but they are so true!! Most go hole per hole at 32 yds. using .22 JSB 18.13gr pellets set at the factory tune no adjustments. Fun! Fun!!Get one!!

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing yet so far..we will see later

    What others should know:

    Clean your barrel bore good first before sighting it in. It has extra oil inside it from rusting while they sit on the shelf ready for sale..

    Things I liked:

    Accurate, no recoil, powerful. Went from springer magnum to pcp rifle like much better. Wood stock is awesome. So far only shot it at 30 yards. Goes in same hole darn near every time. Shooting jbs 18.3 reg set at 2300 2400 psi. 4000psi fill 60shots. Goes through 3/4 pine board at 30yrds getting 35 fpe

    Things I would have changed:

    My rail scope mount uneven ruff textured. It wasn't machined right. Scope sat crooked. It is metal. They make and aftermarket one which I order sabre tactical waiting on it now to come in mail

    What others should know:

    I found out after a couple uses of Mags the pellets and the pin arent so ruff to get in. alube up on orings on the pin that pushes the pallet in chamber probably helps

    Things I liked:

    This is a well balanced gun. Cocking lever is very smooth. Overall fit and finish is very nice. Super accurate, consistent 1/2 groups out to 70 yards. Magazine is easy to load and slides in easily. Easy to tune, you can tune it to get over a 100 consist shots. Its a great gun , but unbelievable at this price. I have several guns that cost 5x as much, but I find myself shooting this most often.

    Things I would have changed:

    One thing is fill connect can be a little difficult to get your female connector on, but even that is not a big deal.

    What others should know:

    Gun is awesome, I would recommend tuning it down from the factory settings to increase shot count. I got about 40 shots on factory tune and over 100 accurate shots with a tune at about 1800-1900 psi. Factory tune is accurate right out of the box though, so if your not into tuning you can shot as is. Remember this is not an FX impact, but you will have an extra 2k in your pocket to buy all the pellets you will need.

    Things I liked:

    Gun has great feel and shoots great. Cant go wrong for the money. Not priced much higher than entry level guns but is regulated and comes with 2 mags. Very accurate right out of the box. 35-40 shots before dropping below regulator pressure with regulator turned all the way up. I also have the composite stock avenger in 22 and love it too.

    Things I would have changed:

    It would look a little nicer in my opinion if the stock was darker wood but that is personal preference.

    What others should know:

    Great gun. Cant go wrong.

    Things I liked:

    Great Value and laser accurate. Spend the extra few bucks to have Pyramid test fire it. Worth the piece of mind and cheap insurance to not receive a defective product. No, its not perfect but it is well above par for sub 1000$ rifles. Great for a beginner or expert alike. The wood stock is a must in my opinion,

    Things I would have changed:

    Make a new higher end model for 7-800$. If Air Venturi can do this on a rifle of this price Id really like to see what they could muster for an 800$ rifle. Im a believer.

    What others should know:

    Get extra mags, extra tins of pellets. This thing is awesome and in the right hands can embarass air rifles costing 4x more.

    Things I liked:

    In my opinion the gun is an excellent value for the money. I have been shooting air guns for about 8 years now and wanted a regulated gun. Figured I would give the Avenger a try keeping my expectations realistic. This gun well exceeded those expectations, so much that it is the gun I reach for when headed to the range. I spent the $50 to have Pyramyd go thru the gun which I have done before and feel it is a good investment.

    Things I would have changed:

    It would be nice if the gun had a front sling swivel stud to mount a bipod to. As it is you need to by a picatinney rail adapter or bipod designed to attach directly to a picatinney rail. I figured I could just mount a swivel stud to the stock until I pulled the action out of the stock and because of the design that isn't easily done.

    What others should know:

    I needed to get 25 moa shims for the rings and then add a couple of strips of electrical tape to get the point of impact where it needed to go as my scope did no have enough elevation at the speed that provided the best accuracy (1" to 3/4" at 50 yards). It would be nice if the scope rail was 20 MOA to allow for this. This was not a major issue and depending on your set up may not be an issue.

    Things I liked:

    Fit, finish and function are very nice. Action works smoothly and trigger is real nice. Extremely accurate, at least to 50 yards. Haven't gone further as of yet. Very tunable and good shot count. All tuning is done without having to take the rifle apart. I am getting about 40 good shots using a 2900 psi fill for those using a regulated bottle, one turn in and 1800psi on reg. Total good hunting shot to 50 yards is about 70 to 75. This may or mayn't change as a tweak the tune a bit.

    Things I would have changed:

    First lack of parts to the consumer. As of now it almost impossible to get parts unless its a warranty situation. Its a bit loud so a "real" moderator would be a great help. Its a bit longer than I would have liked but not a deal breaker.

    What others should know:

    Would I buy the rifle again. Yes in a heart beat. It's a great rifle. Honestly I fought buying one but once I did I am very happy. I am hoping parts become available soon, No rifle lasts forever without parts.

    What others should know:

    Rather than simple end cap on the barrel shroud, mine came with a cap that included baffels and a tube that fits over the barrel; similar to the Donnyfl adapter. I have not seen any reference to this type of end cap.

    Things I would have changed:

    I bought the plastic stock model. Almost immediately I regretted saving a few dollars. I bought a wood stock and it looks great now.

    What others should know:

    The Avenger is regulated. The shots are always a consistent speed. Never buy an unregulated air rifle.

    Things I liked:

    First I like the power and accuracy, I really like the feel of a wood stock over the plastic ones, the trigger was very good and predictable, and this took light to heavy pellets as well as slugs all with very good results, the power is great and with 43.2 grain pellet busted through pine 2X4's with ease. I also liked the picatinny rail on top as well as under the front for utility reasons. For the price, this nice handy rifle has features I have only found on $1000-1600 rifles, like the trigger, full regulation, hammer adjustment and smooth cocking handle. It is a great package, and truly found my favorite air rifle so far.

    Things I would have changed:

    I don't have anything I don't like, however I still like open sights option, and would be nice if it was offered in a walnut Montecarlo style stock with deep grip and adjustable cheek piece. and possible higher capacity magazine that was slightly thicker for the big maximum size pellets.

    What others should know:

    whether you are just beginning or have been around PCP air guns for a long time, this is a great item to add to your collection.

    Love that its wood and after you add a scope and bipod it really looks good,also that it comes with a single shot tray. Also that you can adjust the power.

    Things I would have changed:

    The magazines need to be better made or something ,the two i got keep causing jams and the mount on the bottom for a bipod it needs to be metal so that it doesnt move .

    What others should know:

    I like that it comes with 2 mags i just wished mine didnt causes jams, I would hate to send it back to PA. because it keeps jamming but darn it it took me all night for me to talk my wife into letting me buy this gun and to find out it jams all the time for me.
