Regrettably.... NOTHING. I purchased the gun in the morning....and spent the rest of the day on the range with it, trying to sight in, and get to know the gun.....wasted day.
Things I Would Have Changed-Supplied scope is terrible..... if you're going to offer a "quality" air gun, at least include a serviceable scope -Most of the screws on the gun were loose when doing my unboxing inspection
What Others Should Know-Here's the last nail in the coffin for me..... At shot number 29, I broke the barrel/cocked, and the detent & spring launched out of the breech! Smacked me in the shoulder, and went bouncing away. After a while of searching..... I found the detent ball and spring..... and tried to reinstall.... no dice. The "crimp" area that should hold things in .... were not as it should be. Boxed it up, and returned for a refund. Umerex IS NOT doing Ruger justice.....using the Ruger name on this product. I own the Ruger 10/22 C02 gun, and love it....but this one is a seriously flawed dud, and I will steer clear of Umerex produced break barrel guns.
Looks well made and ready to go. Seems like a good choice for a new shooter.
Things I Would Have ChangedNot much, Shot 3 shots before cleaning it. Had some dieseling on those shots. Cleaning took care of that.
What Others Should KnowOnly have shot it a few times so far as it was my 12 year old grandson's first gun!! In the basement offhand at 10yds he was shooting about 1" groups with an hour of practice. Shot smoothly with a fair trigger pull.
We will be off to the range early next week when we can really test it!Shot 3 shots before cleaning it. Had some dieseling on those shots. Cleaning took care of that.
Nothing
Things I Would Have ChangedThe stock will cut you and the safety goes off and I juts wasnt happy with the product
What Others Should KnowDont buy
The rifle is as good as a moderately priced rifle can be. Extremely accurate. Moderate cocking effort. Location of Safety.
Things I Would Have ChangedJust don't include a Ruger scope, it is the second worse scope I have ever received with an air rifle. Better trigger is always nice, but it is a value priced rifle....
What Others Should KnowUse the scope as a tent stake or a paper weight, the parallax will cause you to think the rifle is junk if you try to use it at 10 meters. It is actually extremely accurate. Mine loves cheap Winchester HP pellets.
I love the accuracy of the gun and the ability to kill small game and varmint.
Things I Would Have ChangedI think an easier scope to sight in would be nice
What Others Should KnowBreak barrel guns take a lot of care so be sure to oil it after each use and store it in a dry place just like a real gun. DO NOT DRY FIRE! It can bottom out the spring.

I like the style, power, performance, price, synthetic stock, fiber optic sights and ergonomic design. The 4x Ruger scope that comes with it seems to be clearer than the competitor’s equivalents.
Things I Would Have ChangedHigher quality control in craftsmanship and assembly. Harder steel used on the screws and other key locations. Include scope mounts that compensate for barrel droop and are intended for use with rifles that produce this amount of recoil. All manufacturers should test fire for accuracy, function and performance, before boxing up their products.
What Others Should KnowThis is my third Blackhawk.
#1 was extremely hold-sensitive, but accurate (1/2” groups at 20yds off a bench with Crosman HP’s). It died after 1000 rounds.
#2 came with a loose barrel pivot, when I tried to tighten it the threads on the bolt stripped out. After fixing that, it still couldn’t hit a bull in the butt no matter what kind of pellets I tried. The best group I could shoot with it was 1½” at 20yds off a bench.
#3 is not overly hold-sensitive and I can shoot an occasional ¼” group at 20yds off a bench with it, using a heavy duty 1 pc. scope mount and a mid priced 3-9x40 AO scope (I had to shim the rear of the scope). Best pellet in it are Benjamin HP’s $10 for 750 pcs. (Inexpensive and they are the most accurate in most of my .177 rifles).
If the rear open sight can’t be adjusted high enough, try gently bending it upward a little. If you plan on upgrading the scope; the open sights sit up too high to use see-through mounts also I tried a 4-16x40AO but had to completely remove the rear sight to do it.
BLACKHAWKS DESTROY SCOPES. Be sure to buy a scope that is airgun rated and comes with a lifetime warranty (you’ll need it). Don’t forget, no lifetime warranty when buying a used scope, or if you lose your receipt.
This gun is very accurate. I am very surprised at how low the price is for this gun. Overall the best pellet gun I have shot (I have a lot of pellet guns.)
Things I Would Have ChangedThe one thing I would change about this gun is the rings. In case you don't know what that is, its the things that hold up the scope. Around every 15-20 shots, the rings get loose and I have to tighten them. That is really the only downside to this gun.

I like the safety it has a real good feature you cock it it goes on safe everytime.
Things I Would Have ChangedI would def change the size of it. Mine is a .177 and it actually weighs more then one of my .25s.
What Others Should KnowI had a had time sighting this gun in. I tried lots of different pellets, 3 different scopes, nothing seemed to help. I have mine a make over. I replaced the stock, tuned the gun up, threw out the scopes rings those totally sucked and rescoped it and it did turn into a decent shooter. But I don't recommend doing what i did your Probably better off buying a better quality gun but I shoot everyday and work on guns all the time so having the parts, knowledge and a little bit of time i guess that's up to the airgunner to decide.
