mine was traded with my uncle for something I can't remember but he hunted with it for 10 plus years then I got it and I'm still shooting it almost every day.

NADT

its got a Redfield 3x9x40 on it no AO but its been working fine for all these years he did replace the cocking arm as it wore out from use everything else works fine .I redid the stock just because it was really scratched up ALASKA woods can do that! iv owned it for over 25 years and it's still going strong.

zeroed in with 3 dime sized 3 shot groups at 30 yds. fit and finish are beautiful. great trigger

front sight is fat black plastic, for this price it sucks. open sights are horrible on this gun

the gun is heavy, the side lever action is awkward for hunting,great gun for field target.

This is a very nice Springer! I paid the extra to have the gun sighted in and Pyramid did an excellent job. Very accurate and I'm impressed!!!

Possibly upgrade the scope, but it's working great for now.

Money well spent! Get one!

Excellent German springer rifle! Waited long time for availability. Get one!

There are 2.5mm ball bearings under rear sight adjustment dial. Easily fall out had to buy replacement. Brighter front sight would be great. I used screaming pink nail polish on mine better yet get scope package.

She is a cannon! Heavy but sturdy. Noodle arms will have trouble cocking.if you get the UTG scope mount I recommend low rings (comes with medium-cant cheek weld)

Excellent fit and finish. Nice wood for the stock, good tolerances on the moving parts. Excellent accuracy at 40 yards, with good energy.

I am not a great fan of scopes, and probably less so for air guns, so in retrospect I could have done without (but it was offered at an excellent price). This Fall I am going to try a ghost ring sight (which I really like on other long guns) and a red dot (a new type for me). The standard iron sights are okay, but I would like something less fussy.

Had mine about 10 years now and still very happy with my choice.

NOT MUCH

AFTER ONLY FIRING ABOUT 50 ROUNDS THE COCKING LEVER BENT AND CRACKED AT THE PIN THAT HOLDS THE COCKING ARM OR ROD. THE COCKING ROD ALSO BROKE, IT'S MADE OF THE POOREST QUALITY CHEAP ALUMINUM. i WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THAT ANYONE BUY AN RWS PIECE OF JUNK.

IF YOU'RE STUPID ENOUGH TO BUY ONE DON'T EXPECT TO USE IT MUCH AND GET READY TO SHELL OUT FOR THE HARD TO FIND PARTS.

Loren Oct 12, 2019

Herb I will not call you stupid but next time try to remember to press the anti bear trap button before you try to close the cocking arm. I have been shooting RWS Diana side levers for 30 years the only thing I ever broke was a 15 year old main spring in a model 54. They are some of the best air rifles ever built.

I really like this gun.Not hold sensitive,and not loud.Very backyard friendly. Easy to cock. I haven't shot this one a lot, probably only about 200 times. The groups are within one inch. I expect they will tighten up with more use. Seems to prefer a heavy pellet. But as I said I haven't shot it a lot.I purchased the package deal. Not disappointed with the scope. I'm well pleased with my purchase. Good that it comes double boxed. The outer box was scuffed up a bit. However the inner box was good. Gun not damaged.

Checkering on the stock would be nice.

Check your stock and trigger guard screws I don't know if mine were loose when I got it. But they were after the first day of shooting. Check your backstop this one hits pretty hard. This gun is on the pricey side of things. But worth the money.

This certainly lives up to its reputation. The finish is beautiful and the machine work and operation is amazing. I've been shooting air rifles on my property for several years and have used many different guns from break barrel springers and gas pistons, multi pump and other fixed barrels. They have all had their minor issue and little problems but were all fun to shoot, but nothing compared to this one. I'm thru about 350-400 shots and it just keeps getting better. You do get what you pay for and I'm so glad I finally "pulled the trigger" on this one, it is just better by far than anything else I've had. No problems at all putting 5 shots inside of target the size of a dime at 25 yards. I know break barrel rifles are getting better and are less expensive but they will never be as accurate, consistently, as a good fixed barrel rifle. Spend the money on this, seriously, you won't be disappointed at all.

Nothing about the gun itself, I would however like to see the RWS silicone chamber oil and the spring oil included in the combo package. Another $25.00 is not a big deal when you're spending this kind of money. Also the old striker combo used to come with a case and that's not the case (ha ha) any longer. It was a bit of a hassle to find a case that fits this rifle with the droop compensater and the scope.

I know there's a lot of hype about the brand and type of pellet used and each gun shoots different one better that others. This is true, however, I went straight to the Crossman Premier hollow point, 5.5mm. 14.3gr. These work great, have given excellent grouping and average between 790 and 810 fps on the chrony. They're readily available at most retailers for less than $7.00 per 500 cnt. tin. The biggest thing is to pick one and stay with it, if you want to spend the money for higher end premium pellets, go for it. This rifle is so good that whatever brand, weight and type of pellet you choose, it will put them exactly where you want it.
