Things I liked:

The look and the feel is outstanding! The smooth trigger pull in single action and double action is fantastic. There is absolutely no revolver even close to this quality in this price range. For a BB pistol it is very accurate. I was totally surprised and I own numerous Hi-end pellet and BB revolvers (ie. Umarex Smith& Wesson, Dan Wesson, etc.)

Things I would have changed:

For this price range I would not change anything!!

What others should know:

This is the best bb gun for the price. It comes with three 10 round bb magazine and they are really easy and fast to load. Use a bowl or container to catch the BB's, but just poor them on top of the magazine and they will settle in the 10 holes. Then simply run your finger over them to seat the BB's and you're read to go. I can load three magazines in less than 30 seconds. Also I chrono'd the gun on an 85' day and in a 10 shot string I got a high velocity of 480 fps a low 360. This gun totally exceeded my expectations. I also put a red dot sight on the top rail. This is a must buy for your collection.

    Things I liked:

    Feels very nice in the hand. Using a red dot I can almost keep all shots in a single hole at 15 feet. Loads easily. Would be great to use to teach someone basic firearms safety.

    Things I would have changed:

    I think there could be a tighter fit around the bbs in the magazine. Sometimes they have got lose and rolled out. Seems like 2 or 3 spots in each magazine are looser than others. Maybe have a little rubber sleeve in the magazine to surround the bbs would help.

    What others should know:

    Expect a bit of noise when shooting.

    Easily my favorite CO2 BB pistol. Very accurate at 40 feet with Red Dot sight. Fits my large hand great. Well balanced, easy to load and operate.

    What others should know:

    Get a good optic sight for top rail mounting and go to town on those cans!

    Overall quality, weight and the looks. It shoots good and the accuracy is good.

    Things I would have changed:

    The side grip on the pistol where you put the co2 cartridge in it can at times be a pain

    Things I liked:

    Excellent product. Well made, good heft, good looks, great price.

    Things I would have changed:

    A "slight" redesign; make a magazine for pellets (which are always more accurate), even if it requires gun redesign (thicker magazine, shorter center) then we could use BBs OR pellets.

    What others should know:

    For any reason, for that price you cannot go wrong :-) Strong encouragement: buy it!

    The looks, the price, and the versatility of this second to none. This also my most accurate bb / pellet handgun I own.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing at all, I wish there were an firearm that this was a clone of. I would definitely buy it.

    Everything! First of all; it's BEAUTIFUL! Very cool looking. It feels great in your hands (either right or left) Loads easy, it's very accurate at 12-15 yards. Not pellet picky, and loves lead BB's. It's silky-Smooth operating, nice sites and very solid and all in all, its a gorgeous little gun. :o)

    It could use justa tad more weight

    Things I would have changed:

    The cylinder While I get that the bbs only need a small cylinder, it would be nice if the whole cylinder moved instead of just this small section at the back

    What others should know:

    Things I liked:

    The looks! I dont care that its plastic it still looks TOUGH! I love the way it sits in the hand and how predictable the trigger pull becomes once its broken in. I appreciate being able to pop a red dot mil sight on it but opted instead for a simple laser. When fired BBs hit hard and fly true. This gun has forever ruined me on any other gun anywhere near its price point. In my opinion, those other guns are all playing for second.

    Things I would have changed:

    I would spend a ridiculous sum of money for an all metal Brodax with full cylinder like the revolvers from Wesson. Id easily pay three times what I paid for my standard plastic brodax

    What others should know:

    Shes light but made well! She isnt an air hog so youll easily get 80+ BBs per CO2 canister. Some guns are a gamble but not this. Be the best under $40 airgun revolver youll ever own!

    Things I liked:

    fits in hand Very comfortably, Trigger pull in SA is very short light and crisp, DA is a Longer heavier pull but not Bad at all. Can you shoot Both .177 Pellets and BBs in the Brodax YES YOU CAN!!. This is one reason I wanted this revolver. To Shoot .177 Pellets In the Brodax you Must purchase the All Metal Mag/cylinders from the Umarex Colt Python. the Plastic Mags that come with the gun ONLY shoot BBs, But the All Steel Mags shoot ONLY Pellets, but Both types of cylinder Mags can be used in the Brodax or in the Colt Python. the .177 Pellets have a slightly larger diameter so they fit the Barrels ID tighter making the Pellets more accurate out to a further distance. https://www.pyramydair.com/product/colt-rotary-pellet-magazines-fit-357-python-co2-pellet-bb-revolvers?a=7375

    Things I would have changed:

    Add a package of three of the all Metal Cylinder Mags to the package, and Get rid of the Blister packaging and Put it in a Box Like in the UK for the Tornado Version of the Brodax

    What others should know:

    Shoot Pellets or BBs out of the Brodax, get the All Metal Pellet Mags for $6.00 for a package of 3each. +shipping to be able to shoot pellets too. The Umarex Colt Python uses Both the All Metal cylinder mags and the Plastic Cylinder mags this is how the Umarex Colt Python shoots Both .177 pellets and .177 BBs

    Things I liked:

    The gun feels good in your hand. For the most part it puts BBs right where you aim. You have the occasional flyer that goes way off. But for the most part if your shot is a little off it ain't the arrow...

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing. Its the best under $40 gun you'll buy.

    What others should know:

    The sights are hard for these 68 year old eyes to see. So Im adding a reflex sight. I put one on my Crosman Vigilante and its a nail driver. I expect the same with the Brodax.

    Things I liked:

    This thing is a hoot. It is not a replica so you can judge it just as a shooter. It is accurate, mounts accessories readily and has a large capacity for a revolver. You get three 10 round magazines with the pistol. The trigger pull is fairly light, but very stagey. The grip fits my hand well and the pistol has a nice heft.

    Things I would have changed:

    Nothing really. The pistol is inexpensive and reliable.

    What others should know:

    I never fired it using the iron sights, I instead immediately installed a small red dot. The pistol gave very good groups while sighting it in, but that was the last time I shot paper. This pistol is excellent for rolling soda cans and soup tins across the backyard. It has quickly become my go-to CO2 plinker.

    Things I liked:

    Feels pretty solid,many working parts are metal. I like the grips/co2 access,grips feel stable,and don't move around like some of the sliding grips do. Open sights were dailed in pretty good on mine. Accuracy seems very good out of the box,I was sighting in a reflex sight,from a rest at 30ft, and the first five shots were one hole and a flyer. That was with some Daisy bb's I got with my sons 70th anniversary Red Ryder. Once it is broken in it should be very good with some better quality bb's. Three mags/ammo clips in the package is a nice bonus.

    Things I would have changed:

    Being able to use the safety,while the hammer is cocked,would be nice. Not really a problem unless something unexpected happens though.

    What others should know:

    Buy one,you most likely will not regret it.

    Things I liked:

    Fires both Single Action and Double Action. Two rails for optics. Feels and looks realistic. Grip is large enough for the largest hands. Trigger pull is stout, but smooth enough. Fires inexpensive bb's. CO2 doesn't leak out overnight. I fired it a week after installing a CO2 cartridge and there was still enough CO2 to fire more than 30 shots. Accurate enough to warrant a 1.5X scope.

    Things I would have changed:

    A lighter trigger pull.

    What others should know:

    It is possible to remove and reinstall the circular "clip" that holds the bb's. But don't. Use the spring loaded plunger as the instructions call for.
