Man that’s bad. . Send back a broken defective product and they send a new defective product to break until you get frustrated and just walk away and give up.
Bought one at TSC. Pristine. Properly loaded two carts only to have them blow out two minutes later as I was filling mags and the rifle was merely sitting on a gun mat. Liked the platform, but there's definitely a serious flaw with at least one major production run of these. TSC took it right back. Kudos to them.
Playing Devils advocate I worked at Hallmark distribution we had strict quotas and accuracy requirements. Some workers didn’t pay much attention to packaging to save time. My accuracy was 99.9 we were expected to maintain 99.75 to be satisfactory. To make my quota for production I had to work through my breaks a lot of the time some wold cut corners to make better time you could use a different box than suggested and packing didn’t count against you for accuracy. So I’m guessing Amazon is set up similarly. That’s the life of “order filling in big warehouses no one gets ahead of the game doing it the right way. So push the limits to make better time so you can take your breaks. Sad but true. 🤷🏼♂️
Hi from the UK. Hope you don’t mind if I call you Gunny, just wanted to thank you for a very informative video. What about a walk around your gun room, I (and I expect many others would love to see your arsenal). Huge respect ✊🇬🇧✊🇺🇸 Keep up the good work.
Thanks for your opinions. I got 2 of them from Is Tractor Supply for $42 each . I haven't had an issue with them yet . One of them shoot two times each time I put the trigger . Sometimes it don't the other one Shoot one time each time you pulled the trigger but I like them .
Have mine for three weeks now purchased at tractor supply for $41.00 on clearance down from $59.00.shoot great though reminds me of the daisy 880 for sure just some refining.
Wow! Excellent packaging(sarcasm)! I haven't gotten any rifles from Amazon yet. Only pistols and most are packaged ok. They must not of had a gun length box handy so they use that enormous box. I hope the rifle lasts awhile unlike so many others. I wonder how these slipped through their QC? Is it made in Germany?
That is the reason I don’t buy pellets from Amazon. One time my brother got a can of pellets from Amazon and the pellet tin was so beat up I had to cut a hole out of it to get the pellets.
I can only borrow a line from a James Bond film,can't remember which one,about the Canex,"Mr Bond your reputation proceeds you".I have not heard anything positive about those guns.
On sale at Tractor Supply in Troy (up state NY) for $42 ..... if it can be sold that cheap, I have grave doubts as to the quality and longevity of the piece For myself, I'd save my money for something better Maybe if I had a kid that wanted to try or I wanted him to have a try at shooting...... $42 or $60 is very doable if the kid doesn't take to the sport. It may last long enough until it's time for a decent quality one.
Well at least we both have good ones, so far! Amazon is beyond ridiculous with how they ship airguns. I have a Zelos coming from Amazon today, we shall see what condition it arrives in. Probably an 8 foot long and wide box with no packing!
The 1077 I bought 25 years ago has space for 1 co2 and I can get around 60 shots @ around 6 ftlb. With a 3-9x40 it can hold a 1 inch group at 20 yards. Perfectly acceptable and fun to shoot.
I'm completely over having shipping labels placed on the product packaging itself, covering literature, details, imagery and such. I'm fickle, I'd have returned it based on that alone, much less the box being buckled in half. We're living in a consumerist distopian society anymore, they just throw your purchases at you and quality is nowhere to be found. Exorbitantly high prices for garbage products. I'm not spending my money these days.
@WalnutandSteel I've been thinking about an air rifle but not sure what I want just yet. I know I probably will go one with an air tank system...if I'm saying that right. I definitely know I want something that is a tac driver do you have any recommendations?
glad u got a good one brother. watched OTSA's review. looks like it has decent accuracy. wish UMAREX had better QC. also some of the worst mags in the business.
Just returned one to TSC. Pristine boxes in a fresh display. All marked down to $41.99. Used 100% silcone on the tip of each Umarex cartridge and the red o-ring seal plus threads. Hand tightened the piercing cap then followed up with the supplied butt stock wrench. Put the gun done gently on a gun mat while I loaded the mags... Then "BAM!" All air lost in a matter of seconds! Wasn't even touching the rifle. I liked the setup, but I'm going to wait awhile to see if Umarex posts an official acknowledgement and fix before considering the Canex again.
You should always have your gun on safety and COCKED whenever you are refueling or refilling it. If not, your Co2 will bleed out and your PCP may not hold air.
Thanks, Nibs. I've had 3. All duds. Sent #2 to Umarex: kaput after 10 shots. Here's hoping they work out the bugs on a fun plinker.

That gun is looking pretty darn accurate!
The fella has some guns ! .thanks for the info UK here

Cats love those oversized boxes 📦 😺. Not bad for only 60 beans. Be good for a garage or basement air range. Thanks. 🙏👍
My cats and even dogs love them big boxes

Hey now, Nibs! Is there a face seal? It looks like it pressurizes the whole Co2 chamber. That might be good for HPA conversion.🤔
It does pressurize the whole chamber
Great video thanks for sharing.
My umerex Notos which I cant praise enough has that same trigger safety. 1 of my only complaints.
I've had a few come from Amazon packed pretty much like that.
I have purchased multiple and they only get 12 shots out of two co2 and I cannot find a solution
Please show us the internals.
👍
Seriously begging you nibs! I am trying to figure this bugger out before I drill and tap the co2 reservoir for hpa bulk fill foster fitting
Cant work out why UX didnt use the mag release off the Tornado\Brodax revolver or just make a long barrelled version like a Rossi Circuit Judge🤔
I ve had no issues with packages from Amazon so far thank god I hate returning items
That is the reason I don’t buy pellets from Amazon. One time my brother got a can of pellets from Amazon and the pellet tin was so beat up I had to cut a hole out of it to get the pellets.
Wow! Amazon is getting worst every day... Good thing it wasn't broken after that. Neat looking "toy"
I can only borrow a line from a James Bond film,can't remember which one,about the Canex,"Mr Bond your reputation proceeds you".I have not heard anything positive about those guns.
I'm glad it all worked out ...fun little plinker for 60 bucks? Yeah that'll work .
Glad they're not all bad It's had some bad reviews 👍👍🇬🇧
Not bad at all. Seemed very accurate 😊
Gotta love Amazon shipping department lol.
Fun CO2 rifle 😊
Quality control there,,,,,that’s too bad. I’d be pissed off too
Nice video. What velocitys and power has it? Thanks
I haven’t chronied it yet but the box claim 700fps with a 7 grain pellet. I will test that soon
@@WalnutandSteel Thanks.
There I spotted the orange $10.00 wonder knife I went to Wally’s yesterday I asked a manager without any success:(
So did you actually load 2 co2 cartridges in at the same time?it was not shown in the video.
Yes I loaded 2 into the gun and that was shown in real time in the video

Morning MR!
You will be impressed by the Zelos. Check out my video with parts from Bravo 3d for the Zelos. You can thank me later!😏
@@WalnutandSteel I will check that out!
Why not use pyramid air so much better or for guns like zelos utah airguns has been good as well as PA
@@dannyarmata8878 I actually use all of the above. Sometimes I just follow the deals. But I have well established accounts at all of those plus more 🍻
How does compare to a Crosman Freestyle or 1077? Does the Crosman use 2 co2 in their 1077?

Home Depot is famous for shipping products that way too.

Looks like a shooter....is that your 20yd indoor range?
Just the 7 yards, we will get it out longer next time. I was more interested in “will it even work”
@WalnutandSteel I've been thinking about an air rifle but not sure what I want just yet.
I know I probably will go one with an air tank system...if I'm saying that right. I definitely know I want something that is a tac driver do you have any recommendations?
It might be a little spendy for you but check out the Umarex Zelos. I do believe it’s probably the nicest pcp airgun I have ever shot.
@WalnutandSteel will do. Thanks again for the Unertl serial number list you sent a while back
Looks interesting
Wouldn't be the first time Amazon's sent a previously returned item to someone else.... Likely not the last.
It’s so stupid that they do that when you buy things for full price you don’t want a returned one
glad u got a good one brother. watched OTSA's review. looks like it has decent accuracy.
wish UMAREX had better QC. also some of the worst mags in the business.

Do you use any filter in this video? 🤔
filter for what?
Thread barrell ?
No but Buck rail makes an adapter to fit it. Same muzzle design as the daisy 880 and Winchester 1977xs
🔥 🎥
There I spotted the orange $10.00 wonder knife I went to Wally’s yesterday I asked a manager without any success:( I’ll pass on this one
Is it available in the UK?
Not sure
@@WalnutandSteel Is it perhaps sold under a different name, like the SMK PR900W is called the Diana Stormrider in the US?
The umarex version of the Crossman 1077 💯😉✌️👌🫡 the trigger looks like it functions better 💯💪
very similar concept for sure, but in my limited exposure to both, the Canex is a lot better product
Not even close the unarex is far far superior. Makes the 1077 a joke. Sadly mine all only get 12-15shots.
The bazooka gun 😂
🇺🇸👍pretty cool thanks
No
You should always have your gun on safety and COCKED whenever you are refueling or refilling it. If not, your Co2 will bleed out and your PCP may not hold air.
there is no way to cock this gun, its double action only.
@@WalnutandSteel that’s unique.
Still using co2 in 2025 lol
Not the best looking rifle I must say
