Page 4 - Umarex Steel Storm Reviews

Lots of fun to shoot. Umarex has solved the two major drawbacks on most of their Legends products, that is they have magazines that are difficult to load and have to be removed from the pistol and reloaded and reinserted each time they are empty. This is especially true of the blowback versions where the magazine and CO2 are combined into one unit. On the Steel Storm you just shoot, reload the built in magazine woth a flip of the wrist and shoot again and again. FUN

Not much. Not sure the double release buttons on the CO-2 "clip" is necessary.

I used the Daisy "Alante" bbs and they worked flawlessly altho they are more expensive than most. You'll need a bunch. I may experiment with other steel bbs because of price but then, if it works, why mess with it.

Nice little BB gun fun to play with added accessories real nice

Nice little BB gun fun to play with added accessories real nice

Not a lot but I would change except for maybe come out with me metal version maybe like a limited addition but made in metal

athis gun is fun for shooting cans. last long and aims well with a dot sight I bought cheap. finding this online a year and a half ago brought me back to CO2 guns

some things they said to oil in manuael like resivoir lid

these things last long you just have to put some spring oil in the magazine. and add a little when filling the BB resivoir

It is absolutely awesome- worth every penny!!!

Get this ASAP!!!!!!

Full auto.

Make it to last and work correctly first time and last time. I had to send this pos back to get fixed--twice! I finally threw it away.

Don't wast you money on this!!

Nice look and feel. Impressed with quality and ease of use. Works well. Fun.

CO2 Eject button is close to trigger. Seems to be where the safety would be. It is fine once you understand.

ease of use.

option of getting a suppressor and fold stock.

just have a blast with it.

This thing is a BLAST! I love just about everything . An extra "key" for changing out the CO2 is a great idea.

Nothing.

I did notice that when the air pressure starts getting low, if you're on "single-shot", it will shoot a "six-round" burst once in a while.

This is a really fun gun to shoot. It holds 300 bb's in the reservoir, which can be easily dropped into the feed chamber. select single shot or 6 rd. burst. The 6 rnd. burst is the most fun. you can actually see where the bb's are going while you fire it. The CO2 cartridge lasts long than I had expected it too. It's a great gun. I have 2 of them I shoot with my friends.

It's fine the way it comes. add a red lite scope for ease in aiming.

Keep lots of co2 and bb's on hand.

Excellent fun factor and the accuracy was surprising for what it is. Also it seem to manage co2 really well and you get a decent amount of shots on two cylinders

Mine stopped working after a few months. Before that, you had to pull the trigger really hard to get it to fire.

I recommend to anyone who uses an auto bb gun to purchase the hornady bbs https://www.pyramydair.com/product/hornady-black-diamond-steel-bbs-177-cal-5-1-grains-anodized-finish?p=1341

Otherwise you will end up with dust in your gun which may cause issues. That could have been the problem with mine.

Nicely balanced, Lots of fun. Great plinker, easily sends bb's thru soda cans filled with water at 15 yds. Makes better use of co2 than expected.

Fine just the way it is. Would be willing to pay more for a longer barrel and maybe a folding stock, larger magazine capacity would be nice.

Been very reliable in burst and semi auto. No hang-ups or jams (2000+bb's) Added a red dot and fore grip. Pellgun oil will keep the seals happy. Get Pyramids 10 for 10 with any co2 gun, it's worth the peace of mind. Very happy with this purchase.

For all the fun you have with this a hundred bucks is a fair price.

Nothing really. I notice bad reviews because of seal leakage from the clip to the gun. Have shot all my BBs I got with this from Pyramyd Air. Over 2000 to be exact. Works perfect. I love it.

Use Crosman Pellgunoil. You can never use too much! A good drop on each co2 when installing will keep this gun going. This gun is a bit loud when firing single shots. I will follow up with another review after I shoot another 5000 rounds or so. BUY IT!!

This thing is a blast for the money. We'll worth the price. I wouldn't suggest it for pest control or hunting,but for some good fun tearing up cans it's just plain fun. It goes through co2 and bbs fast. You can empty the reservoir with 2 co2 cartridges. Don't try using it in close quarters with other houses.

Not much. You have to give it some time for the co2 to warm up if your doing a lot of rapid fire or it will start to malfunction. No big deal.

I went through 1500 bbs in about 15 minutes. And maybe used 8 co2 cartridges. Buy plenty!

burst option over full auto.

some metal or a matte finish would dress it up a lot better

a lot of fun but needs to be customized to make you really proud of it. That said the fun factor still makes it well worth the money

It fits two CO2 cartridges. The first two CO2's I put in I wondered if I put them in wrong I did not I put them in right. It would stop working for maybe 10 minutes or so . Then it would work again the second batch of CO2 the gun did not work at all I thought it might've been the CO2's. And the third which I ship back we're completely full the gun did not work at all

Pull it from the market until it works

The first two CO2's work on an off the other four did not work at all no trigger no click know Semmy no fully odd

This is a really fun bb gun to shoot. With a scope it's actually pretty accurate for what it is. The kids had no problem dialing it in shooting at tin cans. The rails are awesome and the action is pretty cool.

The only thing I don't care for is the angle at which you have to hold the gun to rack your 30 round "rail" of BB's It seems that you have to hold the gun up tilting to the left and give it a few good shakes. Seems like it would be safer if you could hold the gun downward to accomplish this.

The CO2 slots are a little tight so make sure to crank them down really good with the key. If you are having an issue with having to "cock" the gun in between burst shots it's probably because your CO2 is not fully punctured. All in a all a really fun bb gun that I would buy again. We were shooting at an old wood shed about 30 yards away and pimpled the wood much more than expected so this thing has some decent power on new canisters.

Easy to use

Nothing

Good fun

This gun is awesome!

Easier reloading would definitely help if i could fix that would be one for sure. SECOND the holding compartment chamber lid slides back way tooo easily right when you dont need it to.

Not for kids at all

Just plain good fun! Upper and lower picatinny rails.

More accurate.

This is a fun gun to shoot. Pay the $10 to have it test fired, it's worth it! If your expecting accuracy and consistency this is not for you. If you want fun to shoot, this is it! The look on my 7yr Olds face make it worth every penny.

Love the "auto burst" and the fun of shooting this gun. Good quality workmanship .

Be able to add a folding stock, and more CO2 capacity for more shot time and faster FPS. Also it would be nice if it could be made in 177 and/or 22 calibers.

Want some fun? Check out this gun !
