Umarex Origin PCP Air Rifle

Takes only 60 pumps to get to 3500 psi from 2000 psi. I never let it go below 2000 psi and never go past 3500 psi, dont want to chance the ept piston to seize up. Good accuracy (1 inch group 50 yd), its not a fx airgun (1 moa gun), but its also not 2200.00 either. Light weight, great for hunting. Gets 40 good shots before hitting 2200 psi. Mine loves cheap crosman jhp pellets, so I lucked out on this purchase.

Wished it used a regular fill probe nipple like the avenger, and not a proprietary fill probe. Add swivels on the stock for sling attachments. Make the barrel shroud metal instead of plastic. Provide a single shot tray with the gun. Provide iron sights on the gun. Have a more of simple design so customers can maintain their gun without sending the gun to the manufacture for repair. Tighten the scope mounts before shipping it out, mine was about to fall off the gun.

The gun is hold sensitive, so back off about 6 inches away from the barrel band wand youll be ok. I was resting the gun on the sand bag where the barrel band is located and got sporadic groups. My gun was leaking air the first 2 days evertime I hit 2900 psi, but it fixed itself somehow. Once I hit 2900 psi, air was coming out and couldnt pump any further. Thought it was the fill probe, but it was fill probe hole on the gun. After ten sessions of pumping, I was finally able to get up 3600 psi without any leaks. I think the ept system just needed breaking in since its new technology in pcp. It has zero leaks now. So if yours leak around 3000 psi, just shoot it til it gets down to 2000 psi and re-pump it up, do that ten times and it should be able to get to max pressure. This gun was also my 2nd origin gun, thanks for PA great 60 day return/exchange policy (exchanged first origin because something was wrong with the ept system/tank, couldnt pump no more than 20 pumps before it hits 3600ps

finally a pcp that does not need a ridiculously expensive compressor, or tank for the dive shop trip, or a thousand pumps on a hand pump, and this thing comes with a hand pump! it's nice to have ten easy shots, loading the magazine takes a workbench and a light and beer, the rounds stick and go sideways when trying to load cocking lever is great Picatinny rail is great, too bad the magazine goes in the middle... my single piece scope mount wants to go over the magazine slot but prevents the magazine from loading. this is a serious design flaw. the pump works great

the fill probe is awful, takes too much turning, pushing and fiddling to get to the fill position... there is no way of telling when it is finally at the fill position, have to file in your own marker, a quick disconnect or just a simple screw on would be much better. the fill port, de-gas ports on the bottom are ok, not great but at least functional. the plastic cover over them just plain sucks... I just tore the damned thing off, now I have to be careful not to loose it so I can stick it back on after shooting. a removable water tight cover would be better, but can't be a flimsy plastic thing the split Picatinny rail need to be a solid piece or the magazine needs to be lower so it does not interfere with the base of the scope mount I wish the pump base was 6" higher, it gets real tiring to have to make that knee-bend to press down to the very bottom this has a cheek rest but...make the stock removable so the user can customize. it's a long rifle, so a folding stock would be useful

use low profile scope mounts for short range varmint shooting, there is never enough time to calculate your range, so low profile gives a more consistent zero

I love this gun its very quiet and hits hard and the accuracy out of the box is amazing

Nothing

My first pcp and its amazing you wont be sorry
