Proxima Multishot Underlever Air Rifle

Underlever, multi-shot, Turkish Walnut stock (outstanding), matte finish on the wood & steel. An amazing rifle from the very first shot. Excellent open-sights. With 7.9gr CPHP, the first 42 shots averaged 900fps, 14.8fpe out of the box with a variance of 94 (and surprisingly, no dieseling even though the rifle seems very well lubricated). 200+ shots later, a 28 shot string averaged 921fps, 15fpe with variance of 24. Settling in very nicely - extremely accurate out to 75 yards, even with significant wind. The magazines work flawlessly and are easy to load (pay attention when loading them). It came with 2 magazines, and I ordered 2 extra. I have a UTG 4-16x40mmAO on it with a lockdown dovetail mount that's working out very nicely.

Included sling belongs on a Red Ryder....wouldn't trust it for much else.

This is a heavy rifle. Close to 12lbs with scope/mount and a good sling. It's a short-stroke underlever, so again, it takes all of 40-45+ lbs of cocking effort. I'm 57, 6'3", 230lbs and this rifle feels like it's made for me, but I can see where someone of smaller stature/strength could have a difficult time. Like I said, it feels like it was made for me, and I plan on having/using it a long, long time. I'm hitting shotgun shells at 50-75yrds regularly, and at 25 yds, it feels like I can't miss...

I wanted a rifle that was a significant "step-up" from the bargain springers I have in my collection, and this checked all the boxes in terms of things I wanted and performance is even better than expected.

I just bought this in January 2021. This is a big heavy man sized rifle, don't buy it if you are small or weak. You better have stocked up on your testosterone pills. It takes a lot of strength to cock the under lever, which is not a problem for me, but don't get this rifle if you don't have good upper body strength. It is a beautiful rifle. The stock is gorgeous. The fit and finish is excellent. Mine is the .177 version and it is accurate as hell. It is also powerful. It is full of great features. It has a big game rifle feel to it. The multishot magazine worked great for me. The trigger is excellent. Beware: This is an air rifle that requires you to PAY ATTENTION to what you are doing. There are lots of features that require attention to detail. Love it!

The sling is too garish for a such a beautiful rifle. They should have a better sling, but that is a minor point. This rifle is HEAVY. Which maybe is why it is so accurate. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing but it is what it is. I cannot imagine shouldering this for any length of time on a hunt. You might as well be carrying a BAR. To me it is strictly a bench rest target rifle. Which is ok, that is why I bought it. It is a little loud but not too bad. I shoot it in my backyard. I REALLY wish it came with a moderator, as far as I can tell it seems like it is impossible to modify it for one.

Buy some extra magazines, you will be shooting it a lot.

Es Un Rifle Muy Preciso a Menos de 30 Mts Con H&N Field Target Trophy (Cal .25 en mi caso).

Muy Pesado, Bajarle 1 Lb... Y Precio Muy Alto.

Es Pesado 8 Lbs Mas La Mira Telescopica... y La Palanca es dura, Pero es normal por ser de barril fijo.

I want to rate this well. The stock is a nice solid wood. Nice and heavy and feels great. But the gun doesn't fire.

Customer service sucks. I returned the gun the day after I got it because the gun won't fire. Pyramid Air never even notified me that they received the gun, I had to verify it through FedEx. I have contacted PA several times over the last 4 weeks that they have had it and I have been waiting either for a replacement, a repair or my money back and I can't get them to say anything other than they are too busy. I want the gun but at this point I just want my money back and I will do my business elsewhere. It's too bad.

If you need any kind of customer service go to another outlet as the customer service at Pyramid Air is non-existent. I really hate giving a review like this as I like their selection but they really don't care about the customer after the sale.

the only thing i like is the gun looks good. the clips are horrible they are hard to load and they don't rotate to the next round all the time so the gun ends up dry firing. also some reviews say this gun is not load, its the loudest air rifle i ever fired definitely not backyard friendly. over all very disappointed in the purchase and was a waste of money.

Bought it for the looks and the .25 caliber option. Looks really nice. Stock is cool. Sights are very good. Plenty of power. Came in in very good condition. I really wish I bought something else though.

I would change the loading-unloading mechanism somehow. Still unsure the best way to have it de-cocked when your done shooting. If you don't keep up with the ammo count and you cock the gun to shoot again if the magazine is empty the cocking lever won't close and the gun is still cocked with the lever stuck out away from the gun. Someone said to put a single pellet in the mag and shoot it. It works, but I think this design is dumb.

Same as above.
Also, I'm a big man and I still think the gun is very heavy and also front heavy. The cocking force is very hard with a somewhat short lever. If you don't totally follow through with the cocking lever it will lock up. It's not defect just wasn't cocked fully until the click is heard. Warning- When the lever was stuck I had my finger on the side release lever and I pushed the cocking arm again and it came disengaged and it swung up and struck my thumb knuckle very fast and very hard....
There is a lot of steps to be able to shoot. (positioning the gun for easiest cocking takes a few) So no quick follow up shots. Hunting is not in season yet but should be a decent small game hunting rifle, has plenty of power. Mine is the .25 cal. option. Comes with a Hatsan sling and your probably going to need it if walking around with it. Final thoughts, If you can live with the negatives and use it for hunting it is a good gun. If you want to just target shoot or plinking keep looking

Very nice metal on this gun, love the multi-shot magazine. It fits nice and does not wobble around like the Hatsan Flashpup QE. Its not as heavy as the mod 135s, and easier to cock. The one I got seems to average 745 FPS using JSB 18.1, so Im pleased with that. I like the mechanics of the mag loader, it is clean and smooth, not like that goofy Gamo multi-shot crappy rifle. I got mine from Hatsan Refurbished for $239 so Im also pleased with the price I paid.

Ok, the stock is not as well made as previous models like the mod 95, mod 135s. Those stock feels more solid, but this rifle is lighter, probably because the stock is not as solid.

The full retail price of $399 is bull crap, maybe $299 at the most! There are PCPs out there that can be had for about the same price or less than $399. So buy this as refurb! Dont
buy for more than $250!

The Turkish walnut stock is beautiful and comfortable. Mine is in 25 caliber and being able to shoot 10 shots without reloading is a nice change of pace. The mag can be a bit tricky to load at first but gets easier after you have loaded it several times. The magazines worked flawlessly. The firing cycle is smooth for a gun of this power level. I'm usually not a fan of fiber optic sights but these work pretty well and allow the gun to be accurate at longer range. The stock pistol grip feels good in the hand and allows a good, solid grip.

I would add checkering or stippling in strategic areas, the smooth stock can be slippery.

This gun is fun to shoot but it does take some effort to cock. It does make some noise but not too bad and is still what I consider back yard friendly. 19.9gr pellets average 670fps with 25.3's averaging 595fps. This gun is heavy so it would not be a good choice for toting around all day.

Beautiful looking gun. But was not able to shoot it once.

The bear trap release system needs to be replaced or redesigned. Is nothing but trouble.

The bear trap release system is a problem. It would not release the cocking lever and could not use the rifle. Returned and am looking for a different gun. nice.

Junk. First shot went through and the rest of the magazine got logged in the barrel (JSB, best stuff)

stop production, or on with the QA

don't buy
