I use this for pest control. Dead on at 20 yards.

Longer barrel, for better accuracy at longer distances.

Very powerful, be sure of your backstop.

It is a powerful gun, nice rifled barrel.

Rear site is awful, needs more adjustment capability

Miss fires 10 percent of the time, not accurate because of rear site. Rear site broke off within 4 days of purchase. I wouldn't recommend this gun to anyone period.

Power, fiber optic sights.

Barrel lenght, cockaid, front sight height and trigger.

My Ruger shoots low. The rear sight is maxed out on the height and it's still 8" low @ 25'.
A red dot sight corrected it but the hard trigger makes it hard to shoot accuratly.
The cock aid is a must use as the front sight will dig in your hand if you cock your gun without it.
As mentionned in the other reviews you have to take the aid off as it has a negative effect. If I leave it on my gun will shoot even lower.

Chrony F1 with Crosman 7.4gr pellet: 470-487fps. RWS 5.56gr: 570-577fps

POWERFUL!!! This gun shoots just as powerful as some pellet rifles. It's so powerful that at 20 yards I shot pellets into a block of wood and the pellets got stuck in there.

Rear sight was crooked a little so it threw off my accuracy but other than that I wouldn't change a thing!

My gun came with the rear sight slightly crooked but other than that it was everything I thought it would be. This gun is not for boys it's for men...it has weight, kicks good for a pellet pistol, and you need a little elbow grease to cock it so that makes it automatically child proof in my book. All around great gun but it shoots a little low so I'm buying a red dot scope to put on it since I don't trust my sights.

Todd Feb 14, 2014

I'd consider adjusting the barrel droop to fix the shooting low part because a scope will just probably have the same problem. Most break barrel guns have droop. Just file or sand some material off the barrel side of the breech where it's hitting the receiver tube side to allow the barrel is move up higher. That or the breech seal is too thick so if it has a shim under it try removing it.

Very powerful, looks nice, feels well in hand. PRICE!(bought reman for $35.95) Trigger can be adjusted. Again, this is a $70 pistol! You pay for what you get. A brand new one may be better.

Need better cocking aid, broke mine first day. Pyramyd promptly called Umarex and I recieved a new one in 3 days. Very happy with service.

I BOUGHT A REMANUFACTURED GUN! 30 day warranty. Had problems out the box with desieling,thaught it would break in but never did. May need new piston seal. I think I may send it out for a tune/rebuild one day.I bought the benjamin np pistol to replace this one, nitro piston should be better.Like all chineese guns,you hope to get a good one, they are out there. Maybe 10 for $10 will help. Anything I buy from now on I will pay the $10 to hopefully get a good one.

Todd Feb 14, 2014

The dieseling will stop as you've probably figured out by now. The 10 for $10 is pointless imo because the velocity and accuracy reading when new, especially the first ten shots is not how the gun will be after 100 and beyond. Most all chinese and similar guns need a new main seal, so that and tune is what I'd do, if you can get it apart. The cocking extension usually ruins accuracy, so imo it's too much trouble to remove it for every shot.

Feel, Shoots good for a air pistol, powerful

Sights are no good. Front sight is way too tall and cant adjust enough to correct. Woulda thought they woulda figured this out when manufactured.

Todd Feb 14, 2014

Read what I wrote the the two posts above you regarding droop and the cocking extension. Most break barrel's have droop which is not a design prob, but a mfg prob. Now the extension is a design prob, but the accuracy could also be the barrel. The shooter is often the problem too since these are very hold sensitive. If you want to try a better gun get the Beeman P17, better sat everything bu power. If you want better and more power try the Crosman 1377 or 1322, the drawback with this is pumping of course.

The power of the gun is incredible, and I really like the break-barrel design.

Instead of using an assisting plastic piece, extend the length of the barrel (in addition to increasing accuracy, this will allow for a smoother breaking action of the barrel, and do away with the annoyance of having to carry around the break-barrel assist).

Overall a great gun, definitely worth the money.

Todd Oct 25, 2013

I agree it needs a longer barrel instead of the adapter. Plus a sight that doesn't hurt your hand. It's a big pita to pull the extension out of you pocket, install it, and back in your pocket for each shot. The short barrel makes excessive muzzle blast affecting accuracy, plus a longer one should increase velocity. Imo make it say 2-1/2" longer with a long and wide sight hood. Also make the gun higher quality as well, as with all Ruger airguns it's poor, and this pistol is the worst of them. I strongly disagree that it's "worth the money".

The overall design is good and it appears to be relatively powerful. The cocking extension is a must and does do the job.

The sights are somewhat crude and the trigger needs improvement, although this pistol is not sold as a target gun. My main complaint is the accuracy or lack thereof as I tried several different makes of pellets and the results were pretty much the same and that is inaccuracy.

I purchased this gun as a refurbished unit and had a 30 day period in which I could send it back to Pyramid if not satisfied and I exercised this option.
