Umarex AirSaber PCP Air Archery Rifle

Being an avid archer and collector of vintage bows(all types!) and ALSO an air gun enthusiast who owns several air rifles and pistols, the idea of PCP "arrow rifles" intrigued me from the moment I learned they existed. After shopping all the makes & models that currently exist, I chose the AirSabre primarily because it seemed to offer everything any of the others offered but at a much lower price. I dont regret my purchase a single bit! The AirSabre is a very sturdy, acurate, versatile, fun rifle to shoot and offers plenty of rail space for whatever accessories flick your bik. The AirSabre shoots arrows at the same or better volicities and energies as any of its much higher priced competitors. Ive had no trouble with mine whatsoever. Charged it with a full tank of air upon arrival and it held its pressure for the several days it took me to get out & zero in the scope.

The proprietary arrows cost too much but that is the same for all makes & models of air rifles. Also, While a strap swivel can be attached to one of the front picattiny rails, there seems no easy way to attach a strap near the b. stock.

Wish Id spent an extra hundred bucks on the double barrel version!!

Functionality, accuracy, exceptional compaired to crossbows an more compact.

Camo stock would be nice without increased price over $50

Great shooter, my 11 year old grandson calls it the bomb an will shoot it as long as I keep filling it with air. I have taught him gun safety an he is very safe.

good value for your money

safety is small

pumped it up to 3200 psi by hand, took a little time, at 30 yards the first 3 shots hit a 3" target then it starts to go lower and needs to be pumped up again to maintain accuracy

oh boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Shoots like an Umarex is expected to if you own some. weight is almost nothing at all. accuracy well you have to move the crosshairs so you don't waste bolts! It is capable of sending one on top of another @ 25 yds. I shot short range so I have this sighted in for 50 and less yards. In short get one you'll have a ball

trigger is a bit stagy stiff maybe put the gauntlet trigger on it-well that would make the perfect package

fill it load it and have a really good back stop-then have fun

*Fit & finish. *Out of box accuracy (.33 inches at 25 yds). *Pressure retention over 72 hrs (Held steady @ 3625 psi). *Speed higher than advertised (average 5 shots 465 fps)

*Power adjuster: 3625 psi is adequate; however, max psi tweeked to 3750 psi would be better. (Please call for details). *Increase reservoir pressure to 4000 psi. *Lighter trigger pull. (reduce by 2 lbs).

The overall functionality and power of the AirSaber was put to the test. This was an ALLIGATOR night hunt! The hide of a gator is tough and very difficult to penetrate. The UMAREX proved itself worthy.
I had a green laser as my sight. Simple and effective.

The first gator was killed with one shot penetrating the gator's neck, and cutting the jugular. It was 7' 2". I was stunned, almost, as the gator. It was an instant kill.

The next gator was more of a challenge, over 11 ft and several hundred pounds. I stalked it for an hour before I could get a shot. I finally got a arrow in through the neck but not the jugular. Anyway, it was bleeding and the line I had on the arrow to a small bouy gave me something to track. I readied another arrow. In 15 minutes that arrow hammered through the lower back of the large skull. causing more damage. The last arrow smashed into the back of the skull, through the spine, and it was over.

Many thanks to:

I love this hunting survival tool. This is awesome. Any survivalist will want this. Theirs also a dual barrel version but none the less no matter what version you get, youll no longer worry about ammo. Arrows can be a kinda expensive but for what your getting its more than worth its value For every penny you put in to it. Dont forget to check your invasive species list of your state, you might be surprised what you can start out hunting now. Email your local fish and wild life and ask for a Huntable invasive species list that should only require a regular hunting license.

Honestly really happy with it plus you could Mount a laser for shorter distance and have your scope for longer.

Dont forget to buy an arrow target if you dont have one or you could get a hay bale from a local farmer or possibly feed store. Happy hunting and practicing with this one.

Easy to load shoots great very accurate

Very powerful!

A bit heavy for carrying through the woods all day. Trigger pull is about 2 lbs - too much. Maybe I can change it.

I'm 78 and got a doctors authorization for "Disabled Arrowgun Permit" use, based on my age. I can now hunt during bow season (or any season) in Virginia with a super-lethal air gun. This opens up untold possibilities!

Light, easy to carry

I can't fill the air chamber. I'll change my review when this is resolved.

I own several PCP air rifles from Pyramid. My air compressor easily fill them. This Air Saber won't accept air and my compressor stalls. Anyone else have this problem? How did you fix it?

The feel of quality, I feel like Umarex made this rifle with a purpose and not just to jump onto the air rifle arrow market?

Include the quiver...

I own a Umarex Hammer .50 cal, this AirSaber is a baby cousin in quality and in purpose, don't be fooled this rifle is lethal!!!
