Page 16 - Umarex Steel Storm Reviews

Service and shipping from Pyramid Air is excellent

Too much plastic, Umarex seems to be making several plastic models that feel more like a toy gun than a BB gun.

how fast it shoots the six shots. , i bought 2

more power per shot 600 fps at least, would add a 3 shot burst would make it smaller, , for the price its a very good gun

only put round bbs or it will jam up with odd shapped bbs, i do love this gun

Fast shipping Great gun for the money easy to use a bid bang for the buck lots of fun to shoot

bigger magazine

buy it you will love it

It has a high fear factor for a bb gun, the 6 round burst is fantastic, The gun is totally adictive and the gun is a very noisy beast. It also has a very impressive rate of fire on 6 round burst that seems to be close to equal to the mac 10. It also has a bit of recoil which is nice. It also has a cool working cocking lever. It's a nice safety feature. Loading and making the gun ready to fire takes a bit of time, but when ready it shredded not only the can down range but the back stop as well. Instead of steel storm, I would have called it the meat grinder. I put a laser on the lower weaver rail and now it has accuracy as well as can shredding ability.

I'd make a silencer deal like drozt amd perhaps a folding wire stock to add stability to the gun. It is quite a large gun and even though it is balanced well, however it is also a bit rough to keep on target. The muzzle does rise a bit on 6 round burst.

This is a fun gun and a definite "gotta have it" if you shoot for fun. It's hard to get an automatic beast like this since there are not many automatics on the market. Great job Umarex, and great job pyramyd air on swift delivery.

No batteries , easy to reload, and the twin CO2 bottles seam to last more twice as long as a single bottle. Just as much fun or more than other more exspensive full autos available, I own two yellow drozds, they are great guns but for the price you can't beat this Umarex.

First thing I would do is find a better way to pierce the CO2 bottles that doesn't require a special (very losable) key tool, I would also lower the height of those fins either side of the front sight blade (too easy to mistake them for the center blade when in a hurry). Also kinda wish there was a shoulder stock available, would make aiming easier. I don't know how much rifling the barrel would improve accuracy, it's easy to hit a soda can at 10 yards, but at 20 yards the BBs seam to scatter a bit.

Like the manual says wear eye protection, lotsa come backers, aka ricochets. And also be careful, at first glance this thing looks real, and in the wrong place at wrong time it can get you arrested or worse.

it got here one day early but then the way FED EX operates is as usual a stupid situation every time they do the same exact thing...when it arrives early they say on the net form that its on the truck to be delivered....then it goes BACK to the facility to wait till the next day without every trying to deliver it and to top that off the fed ex listings on the net show ten different outfits all actually the same place with no phone numbers and you find its a kinkos and has no clue whats going on with fed ex. Also the manual does NOT say a dang thing about the cocking mechanizm or how to actually work the gun. As usual its a translation problem as with almost ALL manuals nowadays with products all made overseas! this sucks. so far the gun is ok but with a start like this i have huge doubts. Very little of this is Pyramydairs fault...but they could improve this situation as this stuff is really stupid. And so far ive found most all contacts with Pyramydair to be with SMART informed NICE people! so FIX IT!

make certain that EVERY manual covers all the functions of the gun or do NOT sell it! not ever!

never ever ever use fed ex for anything.

Very quick rate of fire individual shots are hard to hear.

Higher quaility housing, no seperate tool to tighten Co2 cartridges.

Stock up on Co2

Shoots fast. Real fast! Quality seems good. Ingenious use of c02 in grip. Like the dove tail mounts

Needs metal. Bbs are a little hard to get in clip. Needs color for selector switch semi and auto- it is pictured in red but doesn't come that way. Not very accurate but fun fun fun

Sock up on c02. Extra c02 clips would be nice.

No electric to mess with,, easy to load fun to shoot i have most all auto guns pyramid sells and this one is the most fun to shoot .The most bang for you buck in a burst BB gun

N/A so far its a blast no problems a mock silencer would be nice

pyramid is the best hands down i stoped looking or pricing anywhere else no one comes close to their service, instock inventory ,shipping ,Etc. I have been collecting air guns for over 20 years and no one beats pyramid air

First time i shot it in 6 shot burst, couldn't stop grinning. Decently accurate when I put a green dot sight on it. Fun to shoot. Can't wait for Umarex EBOS to come out. Currently my favorite just to spray.

Fake suppresor. Fore grip. BB loading. Don't like the noise the bbs make inside the hopper. It would be awesome if it had removeable 60 round clips.

Your going to fly through CO2s. Killed a box of 25 in no time. Get a sight for it.

This shoots FAST ! I never had a Drozd but at the Price, its FUN & Cheap. I always liked shooting the automatic BB guns at the Fair's. This brings it home. It's also build fairly well. I could use another Magazine. perhaps that will be offered later. I put a Red Dot scope on it and it's a hit every time. Can't wait to see what accessories they will offer later. Could use a Suppressor. But as it is now, if you like shooting FAST BB gun's I'd go for it.

Best bang for the buck hands down. Outperforms the Drodz at 1/4 the price

Well thought out design.

Loud and fast - buy lots of CO2

Every thing!! I haven't had it long but this gun for the money is the best I have found yet! I love the extra bb chamber, with one shake or two you are up and running again, no mags to load. I have bought a lot of guns from Pyramid and so far this one has them all beat.

maybe a thinner sight bar for smaller targets like golf tees at 75 feet.

seems to have lots of power and long lasting for 2 co2 canisters.

This is the best auto BB gun i have ever bought I have all the ones pyramyd sells and this one is by far the best for the money ITS fun to shoot

nothing great and well made

the most bang for the buck

-The price is outstanding for what you get. -Build quality is very good. -It put a HUGE smile on my face in 6 burst mode -Single shot is actually very accurate.

-It does not have blowblack (which was advertised), but is fine with me (saves air). --The gun is super load, no discreet backyard shooting with this gun. -Needing a special tool to screw in and out the air. -The charging handle is made of flimsy plastic, need to be careful when using it as to insure in does not break.

I honestly would not wasted the extra money on the Drozd. This needs no battery, and does pretty much the same thing. I actually had a blackbird and this was a way better buy.

FULL AUTO!!!! The six shot burst is awesome and is what makes this gun special. The rate of fire is very high-much quicker than I expected. I would estimate all 6 are let off in less than 1/2 second. It sounds like a suppressed firearm when shot and actually "rocks" in your hand a little due to the blowback operation. It has a large BB resevoir and an internal 30 rd "magazine" that you shake to load from the resevoir...very EZ. DUal CO2 cartridges are kept in the handle and provide longer fun/run times. I enjoy shooting this one more than my real firearms!!!

The sights...they suck. They are not very good (just cheap plastic) and are non adjustable. Mine shoots about 18 inches left/low at 15 feet.

Get on Pyramids waiting list and score one of these...you will not regret it!!!

In my opinion this is better than the drozt because it isn't quite as complicated to get it ready to fire. The recoil is also a nice touch. It adds realisin the drozt doesn't have. It also has a fierce intimidation factor.

Give it a wire stock perhaps as an accessory, and a fake silencer option too. Leave the rest alone

Totally fun, not as expensive as a drozt, and can be had much easier in michigan than the drozt. I'm looking forward to getting the EBOS as well if I can. That one might hit a snag due to design in getting one.

super fast shipping nice weight easy to use fun as heck

larger magazine capacity 30 rounds just ain't enough larger co2 easier piercing on small co2

buy one you won't be disappointed for the price

I just received my package from Fed Ex. Only took one day to get. Read the instructions, loaded it, and fired. It worked just as stated. The six shot burst is really cool. So far so good . Will update later.

As of now nothing.

It is loud,not air gun wise, just loud. This is my third Umarex gun, all from Pyramyd. Good products, and great service..
