Tech Force TF99 air rifle

Almost everything. Beautiful solid wood, with awesome finish. Feel, accuracy, safety.

Trigger system.

I like these techforce rifles. Ihave 3 including both 177 and 22 TF99. They are among the most solid and beautiful stocks ofany of my pellet guns. The quality of the steel work could be better, butfir around 100. Theyare over all nice. Spring piston, so hold sensitive.

Sometime in recent past I wrote a review about my Browning Leverage Air Rifle and said that was the only Spring air gun I still own after I started shooting PCP air guns. That is not correct. I still have my Tech Force TF99 Premier air rifle and that I bought sometime in the same period after acquiring my Browning. I never wrote a review about this gun and frankly I don't know why not or what made me forget to do it as I like to read other user's reviews and for the same token like to share my experiences. My gun is in .177 cal and I do like it very much. This is a very accurate gun and though my preference goes toward the PCP air guns I recently purchased another under lever; - a Hatsan Torpedo 100X Air Rifle, Walnut - in due place I shall review it, but here I'm talking about my Tech Force TF99. I read a few reviews where people were saying terrible things about this gun but I like mine very much. Yes it's made in China, but what is it not these days? The gun looks very good with a Cherry color on the stock and is very accurate. I agree that it has very strong recoil and its heavy, and being an under lever is very problematic to add a sling to it but is still an amazing gun. I installed a Leapers UTG 30mm SWAT 3-12x44 AO Rifle Scope and its accuracy is close to perfection although I must check the screws rings after each time I shoot it for about an hour. The recoil makes the screws go loose. The gun is a drooper so I installed a UTG Drooper Scope Rail, 11mm-to-Weaver Adapter, that not only compensated the dropping as it made the scope better attached to the gun.

If it was possible to lower the weight of the gun it would be a much better tool to take into the woods or even to walk with it to the range.

This one is not a gun for a beginner. Artillery hold is a must and it will probably be a drooper so take that into consideration if you are to install a scope. Like me you will probably need a drooper scope rail and very good quality rings. Don't forget to check the ring screws after shooting for a while if you see your accuracy going down.

Pyramyd Air sent my TF99 in Jan. 2013 A refurbished gun that was so clean and polished that I will always consider buying a another refurbished model. For me the gun is only for shooting at rest with a bag. Yes it's that heavy, but oh so accurate.

For price/nothing

My first air rifle after nearly 10 years since I last handled an air gun. Great price and quality. Reminds me of my first Remington. Looks and performs as new.

Stock wood weight

Great product, sights on the muzzle are excellent. I don't think a scope is required. Nice diamond cut grips on trigger guard and forestock makes it feel like a expensive rifle.

This is not a inconsequential gun, it is hefty, but I like that and the steadiness that brings to the shot. It has good power, good accuracy, the trigger is OK. The fit and finish on my gun is very good and I haven't had any problems with it.

I really haven't found anything I don't like about this gun. I would just like to have the time to shoot it more, and that isn't the fault of the gun.

There is a safety lock that has to be released before the underlever can be returned to it's home position - I'm sure most underlevers have this feature, but I didn't read the instructions and it took me a few minutes to figure it out.

My review is on the TF87 which is basically the same gun but without the Monte Carlo stock. I like the fiber optic sights as well as the heft of the gun which aids in the stabilization of the rifle when it is fired. I also like the fixed barrel which I believe aids in accuracy and consistency . Once I shot about 200 crosman premiers, which this gun seems to like, the gun seemed to settle down as I was getting a lot of flyers earlier on. It consistently nails 8 oz coke cans from 125 feet with authority. As with any new spring gun, this one requires some patience to get it dialed in. More accurate and consistent than my RWS 350 magnum. The best 100 bucks you'll ever spend on an air rifle.

At this price, nothing.

The scope stop is just for looks and shortens the dove tail so you won't be able to mount a 4" scope rail.
Tried a quality leapers scope for a while but the gun shoots better for me with the iron sights.

The look, feel and weight

nothing

not for the weak handed gunner.This weapon needs muscles in the arm to log it around

I liked the overall appearance, the stock has a nice finish and fit. The gun is accurate and I am getting sub half inch groups at 25 yards.

They gun is very heavy, I wish it that it was lighter. The trigger pull was extremely hard and required some tuning.

This is a big gun and would be a problem for a small shooter. I would say that this is a very good airgun for the price.

Very accurate solid gun at an unbeatable price. The gun is heavy but I like that in a springer as it helps to tame the recoil. Nice finish on the stock. Easy to use sights.

Spring has a loud twang and will require a tune to tame it. Cocking handle is a loose fitting in regards to the hinge but nothing some bushing can't fix.

Due to the loading I would not recommend this gun for youths.

Powerful rifle for the price.

Knock some of the weight off or add wheels and a trailer hitch. The cheekpiece is hideous...typical Chinese stock.

It's a heavy cumbersome air rile. Not for the faint of heart when comes to carrying it around in the woods all day.
