Page 9 - Barra 400E Gen 2 Reviews

Love the gun but wish it had more power. It's full auto cold be faster as well. But over all it good for the price!

I like the fact that it is fully automatic, reasonable accurate, good weight, good balance. Sights are good. Easy to put magazine in and out.

Dear Sir/Madam: The only issue is that the magazine capacity is only 50rds. I sow a co2 that handle 300rds .177 bbs. I hope you will do the same with this one too. Thanks. Luis

BB loader sucks. Current design jams up far too often. Also needs to have a built in on/off switch and a charge port so that you don't have to remove or disconnect the battery when not in use or during charge. Neither of these would prevent me from buying the gun again because it's really cool and so much fun to shoot.

Made strong shoots accurate no air tank to carry around

Clip capacity and speed loader could be better

I live in Montana. We all have guns! Bought this BB gun for fun. Thought it would be more like the old BB guns. IT IS NOT. Weight is almost the same, it is metal, not plastic. Battery is long-lasting. Now we can target shoot, without wasting ammo. Great job guys!!

Loads of fun with extra clips you can't go wrong. Can't wait for upgrades.. maybe a super charged motor????

Always wanted a full auto bb gun.. Those carnival games with the air powered machine guns blasting out the red star got me hooked. Although they had a 100 round capacity..The 400e ia half that..But the nostalgia and anticipation is still there. Good Heavyweight gun. Fun to shoot.

So far it's been a blast shooting. Pros: Weight and build quality Accuracy No recoil Cons: Like many I absolutely hate the top loader. It constantly jams and gets stuck. I'm not sure the mag actually holds 50 rounds, I even tried counting out 50 and it get somewhere between 25-30 BBs in there before its full.

Very good accuracy, very consistent. All the BBs hit the same spot at full auto in the pond at 30 yards. Flawless operation.

Love the quality and craftmanship. Only negative is it does not come with a battery or a charger. Would have been easier to get shooting if it had.

Accurate and easy to use. Wish was a little better fps.

It awesome you 🛢 the speed loader You oil the mag and make sure the battery 🔋 turned green unplug Have four magazines locked n loaded Shoot for thrill It's awesome 👌 Revolutionary advancement to mankind It's great 👍

I am very pleased with my 400e fully-auto airgun. I knew it would be great, but I didn't know just how much fun it was going to be. I have been shooting it every day since it came. I even built a bb trap and mini range in my basement, because I still want to shoot it when the weather is bad. My advice to purchasers... by several spare magazines. Once you start shooting, you don't want to take a break to reload mags. Oh... and by LOTS of BBs. The customer service folks were also excellent. My first order was lost by FedEx (no fault of Barra), but their reps worked with me, pestered FedEx, and when they couldn't locate the shipment, they sent me a complete replacement of my original order. They were fantastic. Highly recommend!! Respectfully, Dr. M.

So I'm doing my review after 4000 or so shots. So I lasered all the distances in my yard with the rangefinder. I also used a Centerpoint 32 mm reflex sight with the 1 moa crosshair. This gun is too accurate to use a 2 or 3 mil dot. I don't like any Centerpoint scopes, but this sight is great on the Barra. I can hit a tennis ball steel plate at 23 yards every time 10/10. at 45 yards I can hit a beer can on a stick 7/10 times. At 85 yards I can hit a 5 gal bucket 7/10 times,. Obviously there is holdover. And I was shooting semiauto. But with the zinc Air Venturi BB's you can easily see them in flight through the Centerpoint mount. Crossman black widow bb's made one ragged hole at 10 yards but are not visible in flight. I just ordered some ASG bb's and read they are the best, we will see. Fully automatic is too fun, and never jams. I prefer semi for just plinking. I also put one drop of Kroil (silicone version) in every bottle of bb's. and shake it for about a minute. It makes the speeloader perform almost flawlessly. If you don't, the bb's will jam in the speedloader and you will swear and write bad reviews on the speedloader. Trust me this works phenomenal, in fact Barra should encourage it. This gun is more fun than I could have ever imagined. Just get it. Now Barra, please make a Ruger 10/22 version, semi auto only. Get me 500 fps and the same accuracy and I will be elated.

This a great BB gun. Thought it was a bit overpriced at first but now that I bought it I could not be happier. I love just being able to recharge. After spending so much money on Co2 this is heaven! Thanks Barra!

Built solid and accurate. No downtime like with CO2 rifles. 1000 shots per LiPo charge is awesome. The speedloader jammed on first use but after having lubricated the o-ring at the tip it works like a breeze. Only hassle is you need to plan a bit when using the gun because the battery needs to be charged and discharged accordingly but if you make the time to use a full charge (1000 shots!!) you'll never want to put it down. This gun is a must have.

If you want to put a smile on your face get your self a Barra 400e. Its well built and a load of fun

Excellent power and accuracy. Exactly what I was looking for and more.

I love the 400e. With nearly 1000 rounds thru it I've been having a blast. My use of co2 is going to be dramatically reduced now. Really enjoying cutting aluminiun beverage cans in half.
