Things I liked:

WELL DETAILED AND WELL BUILT. JUST LIKE SHOOTING A REAL FIREARM.

Things I would have changed:

PROBABLY DOES NEED AN ORANGE BARREL. THIS GUN IS SO REALISTIC IN EVERY WAY, THAT YOU DO RUN THE RISK OF BEING SHOT IF YOU USE IT IMPROPERLY. DON'T EVEN THINK OF POINTING IT AT SOMEONE. IT'S AN AUTOMATIC 4 YEAR FELONY FOR MENACING WITH AN AIRGUN IN MICHIGAN.

What others should know:

NOT VERY POWERFUL. VERY RAPID DROP IN PRESSURE WITH MANY RICHOCHETS WHEN GETTING CLOSE TO 18 ROUNDS ON ONE CO2 CYLINDER. CANNOT FIRE GAMO POWER PELLETS DUE TO LOW PRESSURE. WAD CUTTERS AND DESTROYERS SEEM TO PERFORM BEST.

Things I liked:

Feel, smooth action. power, well balanced, adj. sights.

Things I would have changed:

The shells do not fit snugly against the rear of the housing. This causes gas to escape and loss of power. This is the replacement gun which came through the same as the first gun. Obviously a design flaw. Too bad because I love the gun otherwise. I sent it back also. If it was not for this flaw, I would give the gun a rating of 5.

What others should know:

Pyramid Air would not take back my extra shells I purchased.

    Things I liked:

    Wonderful feeling gun. Excellent quality and shoots real nice. As I note below, you need to get rid of the supplied 6 cartridges. They have a sloppy fit, and the pellets do not fit snug enough in the openings. Other than that, the gun is nice.

    Things I would have changed:

    The supplied cartridges are CRAP. The pellets will fall out of them as you move the gun around even the slightest amount.

    What others should know:

    Do yourself a favor and get the ASG .177 pellet cartridges for this gun. I bought a box of 24 from Amazon and they are absolutely terrific. The pellets load in the back end and have a nice rubber seal that holds the pellet firmly. You now have 24 all loaded and it saves you a ton of time and anguish. I was going to get rid of this gun UNTIL I got the new ASG cartridges. Now it's a true keeper....love it.

    Things I liked:

    Without a doubt the number one thing is the look and feel of this revolver. For fun though you're going to need extra shells and maybe a speed loader.

    Things I would have changed:

    The trigger pull is heavier than the real thing, and makes it less accurate, an inexperienced shooter will have problems.

    What others should know:

    If you're experienced with a heavy revolver you'll like this one.

    Things I liked:

    Even if never fired, this revolver has the authentic weight and feel of real revolver. It is a great replica for one's collection. I'm glad I purchased it!

    Things I would have changed:

    I wish it had been offered as a complete kit, complete with holster and spare cartridges.

    What others should know:

    Well worth the money.

    VERY realistic gust like the real thing all metal and rubberized like feel grips weight is spot on I cant believe this gun even the finish is beatuful spot on to S&W love this

    Things I would have changed:

    there is a little movement between gun and shells could be a tighter fit where the chamber holds the rounds and when it spins the ammo has movement could be tighter when its fully closed so ammo doesent move other than that im so happy

    Things I liked:

    The LOOK. The appearance is what got me in the first place. I was looking to purchase another pellet pistol, and after weeks of research, I selected Pyramyd Air as their website is the most logical with the best product information. Their pricing was very good, and shipping was only a few days. The weight is Nice, the feel in the hand was very nice. I love it. I am thinking of getting another one for my wife.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing

    What others should know:

    Not an expert, just an enthusiast. It is everything and more the reviews listed. I am forever doubting factory hype on their products. This one is better than the hype. It seems to be a bit faster than the listed speeds with a new CO2 cartridge, which is good.

    Things I liked:

    An awesome revolver! It functions just like a snub-nose .38 special. Fit and finish is just like a real firearm. It's accurate in my basement range. The brass cartridges add to the revolver experience.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing! it works great.

    Things I liked:

    good heavy weight, fair accuracy, fairly good copy of the original

    Things I would have changed:

    gap between the frame and the cylinder should be tightened up (less of a gap) especially noticeable at the top.

    Things I liked:

    Nice looking gun. Quality of construction seems good & feels good in the hand...Realistic. Good collectible

    Things I would have changed:

    The delivery system for the pellet.

    What others should know:

    Inconsistent delivery of the ammo. Brass pellet holder cartridge does seat well enough to produce a consistent delivery of the pellet every time. Have tried 5 different styles of pellet & the gun was unable to fire all 6 rounds successfully. Flat pellets stuck in the barrel. Best pellet was the light alloy type. The brass cartridge needs to be situated in a fixed position somehow. Keeping the gun, but not to shoot on a regular basis.....

    Things I liked:

    Feel, smooth action. power, well balanced, adj. sights, overall a great gun.

    Things I would have changed:

    Eliminate the speed loader, to reduce cost. It is faster to load by hand one shell at a time. Beef up the screw to tighten up the CO2 cartridge. Beef up the grip and the hinge at the top of the grip. The rail is unnecessary, as it looks too nice to add a sight.

    What others should know:

    The shells do not fit snugly against the rear of the housing where the gas comes out causing loss of power and gas to escape thus not allowing all of the force of the gas to propel the pellet. I sent one gun back and the replacement was the same.

    Things I liked:

    Very nice looking and feel. Action is great. Power seems good. Very well balanced. Extremely fun to shoot. Definitely a keeper.Good accuracy.

    Things I would have changed:

    There is a space, (on both of the guns I ordered), between the rear of the shell and the nipple coming out of the housing, (0.5mm), which allows gas to escape, therefore preventing the full force of the propellant to propel the pellet down the barrel. I do not know how much FPS I am loosing but it seems to be mimimal. The speed loader is worthless. It is easier to load manually. This should be eliminated to lower the cost of the gun. The screw ot tighten the C02 cartridge is flimsly plastic.

    What others should know:

    Occasionally I get a "flyer" shot. A repairman at Air Venturi said it might be due to the space mentioned above. No need for the rail. this gun is too small for a sight or scope. Buy pellets with a bigger skirt. Some fall through the shell.
