One of the best explanations on ANY “thing” I’m no longer afraid to dip my toes into PCP guns. Thanks
My uncle was addicted to PCP. I never saw him shooting, but my mom said he went crazy from shooting PCP. Careful people.
As a total noob into the sport, I’m finding all your reviews and explainers incredibly useful, thank you. It’s the right information delivered clearly and at the right speed.
You really have one of the best Airgun reviews on the internet. Thanks to you I now own the Diana Bandit in .22 12 FPE version and will soon be turned into efficient little monster. I really appreciate how thorough you are with the guns in you reviews. The PP800 may just be the best bang for the buck out there in a multi shot PCP pistol. I love what you did with the chaser and swapping parts in your last pistol video. Very creative and functional. Thanks again and take care.
You are a true credit to the air gun industry. Thank you for creating exceptional content for our hobby Andy.
I’m a rifle instructor (UK), and must say this is a great video. Well explained, super impressed. I’ve even subscribed
Great information and video.Had not thought of PCP before but now I see a new chapter beginning.Many thanks.
Excellent information and advice to newcomers/first-timers Andy!
After my 50+ years of shooting, it is great to see that via the internet, and especially shows like yours, it is now so easy to get accurate and reliable advice to inform new shooters.
Great work!
Enjoy the video and don’t forget to visit www.vector-air.co.uk and www.aar-OnAir.com see you next week. Follow us on facebook.com/andyairgunreviews
Massive amounts of information. Wow, thanks again awesome video. These videos have helped my purchase guns that will bring me enjoyment for years to come. Thanks a million.
Informative... and I learned a few things too. Another great Vid, Andy.
Thank you. The overview is very helpful. So much to learn in a short term.
Andy ! the effort and speed You put into chanbel is way out, the ARR quility stays and i do enjoy everything You do. a humble thanks to You and the team , respext from FX Country Sweden :D
Always watch your videos on Airgun 101 and then come here to give you a thumbs up!
Purely the best airgun channel. Very informative. I own many guns and before buying I'm on andys channel as I know its the best advice.
Keep going.
love the review. Beautifully spoken. Im in the USand im glad we dont have the same restrictions as of yet...
You answered every question i had ,& gave me food for thought on several others.😎👍
Wow that is the most clear and informative vid for PCP pistols I have ever seen !!!
good to see you have picked the pace up Andy .. good review . .thanks
As a lefty (these are ambidextrous) I need to mention the Hammerli AP20 target pistol, the grip is so modular that it can be adapted for either hand, the vertical cocking arm can be swapped to either side, extremely accurate and affordable at the £500 (give or take) price point including case, two different styles of air cylinders: a traditional long one and a short stumpy one; these can also be attached horizontally or vertically with a built in rotating adaptor as part of the pistol, it also has match grade trigger that is extremely adjustable internally and externally. The other pistol that is ambidextrous, very accurate and fun is the Rohm Twinmaster, this can use a single shot or an 8 shot magazine (small metal disc style with no annoying springs) and can be shot as a double action revolver (no need to pre-cock) or in single action using the hammer which can be protected/hidden by a cover. It comes with match grade adjustable fibre optic sights as standard but can accept rails as well for optics.
Brilliant video, no waffle, just straight info 👍
WOW .... now thats what I call a review . BRILLIANT !
Good video Andy,..most useful and well done too!
Hi. First I want to say I love your videos and the way you give information.. I haven’t seen too much on springers/piston break barrels..
I've had alot of airguns , but my Wembley electo pistol is my favourite. Accurate easy to pick up and shoot.
just bought a pp800 so thought I would revisit this vid. Sold my cp1 for it. As usuall fantastic info
Excelente canal, muy entretenido y fácil de entender gracias a la pronunciación de Andy. Es difícil encontrar canales de calidad sobre este tema. Gracias por hacer estos vídeos.
Pllll
Excellent review sir!
Always, enjoying it.
Very good presentation. I am an owner of a Steyr LP10 and an Artemis PP800. Here is my knowledge contribution:
I've got my LP10 three years ago second hand, at 700€ while already had an 11 years life. Since then, I roughly shooted another 78000 shots (approx 500-600 per month). I only changed a few o-rings and a hammer spring. This gun worths every penny if you practice 10m target shooting and if anybody comes across a good second hand one, never had a second thought about it, it is an investment. Brand new they cost around 1800€. They are really fun to shoot, laser accurate and beautiful to hold.
I've got my PP800, 5.5mm as a budget back pack gun and a "tunning project". Cost me 204€ + 85€ for an altaros regulator+65€ for various tuning spares like adj hammer, springs etc. Reg.Set at 80bar, tension adjustable soft spring produces 30 good shots at around 8ft-lbr. Just with the spring, can set it to 5 ft-lbr and get 50shots from 210-80 bar. Reg. at 110 bar I can get 9ft-lbr and 20shots. Open sighted or with a red dot, easily can put down pigeons from 15-40 metets (done it, single handed), no problem. This is a really fun tool for field usage, highly tunable, worths every penny I put on it. My next aim is to get 10ft-lbr for pest control up to 50m.
Some people may think: "You invested 354€ on this Chinese staff + tunning time, does it worth it?" To me, yes, some other people may prefer to pay the extra price of getting quality and peace of mind (e.g. FX Ranchero, HW 44, Calibrgun Ocelot) or power (hatsan sortie, or ATP2),
I never thought of getting any of CO2 replicas, they are nice to hold and see, but no functional and not accurate at all (due to CO2 reducing pressure shoot after shot).
The one pistol I am really eager waiting for review and purchase, is the Artemis PP750, a hybrid between a pp800, a pp700 with the looks of LP400..., and retractable stock, 235€ at Krale ... these SMK Chinese, know their business!!!
The PP800 still going strong ?
I need one. Is it very straight forward to bump the power up to 8ft/lb ? I've no experience of tinkering .
great job on the tutorial, I feel like I could go out and get geared up and shoot PCP, but I'm happy with spring piston and CO2 ;)
As always, an excellent video. I'll check on the AAR-Drapers link!
I wish I could get one of those Artemis PP700 here in California.
Thanks for the information on air pistols. I really like my old original pump Crossman single shot, want to up grade maybe if I can.
Bought one of you some time ago amazing idea 10/10 cheers buddy 👍
Excellent and informative video as always 👍
Multi pump pistols like the Crossman 1377 & 1322 were the first pellet pistols I ever had and in fact still have. Single shot, accurate, and compared to co2 way more powerful plus under $65.00 usd.
The crossman platform covers pump, co2, and precharge.
With the inter changeability gives a lot of options.
Very interesting,I'm thinking of getting a pistol so gave me an insight,thanks.👍🏻👍🏻
I for one enjoy your programming. I hope that one day you are able to achieve some income for doing all this work. Especially since it seems to be something you enjoy doing. Much love from Texas!
Thanks for the great video
Impressive demo. Thanks.
Exquisite, concise, very informative video. You sir, know your calling as a professional educator of the field you are expert in. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Fantastic!...that Artemis looks just like my Diana Bandit
Really helpful . Thanks very much!
I believe that you missed a category of PCP pump ups such as crossman medalist, but with the follow on hints, the crossman platform immediately springs to mind, as many variations, and upgradeable.
I have my first PCP in the mail from Diana in the Bandit .22 caliber with the foot pump for charging.😎🇺🇸
Excellent video was the one you reviewed the sub 12ftlb version
Hi Andy...Please do a review/comparison with the webley eclipse and compare to other pistols with stock options..thanks a great detailed video..weldone
Very interesting! Thanks!
excellent review.
another great one
i converted a cp2 to pcp,that little thing is very fun
Had Webley Junior without the stirrup catch same as mark 1 bother post war also senior, now looking at HW44 (Got HW110 Carbine so magazines the same) Air Arms Alpha or FAS 6004 maybe HW45 again (Got new HW98 Awesome) like Pistol in .177 HW75 single stroke is Good too
Everyone I subscribe to. I'll give it a thumbs up to Especially your videos. Because I enjoy a good air rifle. And a good commentary. By a person who enjoys what he is doing. So, thank you
Super video tnx
Nice video, thank you. The pistols are so big they may as well be rifles.
Very good presentation
Nice PCP Pistol 👍 Good Review! 😁
Hi Andy,
I know this is quite an old video but I've only recently found and become a fan of your channel. Thank you for all the effort you put in. It's simply great.
I wanted to bring a point to your attention however, regarding the airing up of PCP weapons and the use of the bleed valve post filling.
I'm not sure how manufacturers specify as I've never owned one. I do think that the bleed valve should be left open until the fill valve is removed from the gun. This makes more sense to me because should the tank valve be letting by, the hose could potentially be re-pressurised if there were a delay between turning off the tank valve and removing the fill valve from the gun.
Just a thought and again, thanks so much for the great videos and brilliant reviews. I'll keep watching.
Jamie
I think it would be great if the modern daystate owned brocock would continue to make a pistol like the super six, I think they would sell a good number of them.
I would love to see a review on the Benjamin Trail NP XL 1500.! Just to hear what you think about it. Please!.
Superb overview
Good vid, very informative but you left out the good old multi - pump pneumatics. The crosman 1377s and the 1322s and sheridan hb22 pistols, the crosman 2200 magnums the 1300s the 760 pumpmatics and the sharp innova, s, sheridan bluestreaks etc. I own a nice customised 1322 pistol carbine., and its great, powerful and cheap until you catch the modding bug ,and it also helps keep your arm, s nicely toned with the work out you get pumping it. All the best from lancashire.
yes, but this video is about pcp pistols. pumps aren't.
Hi Andy; I have been following your channel for some time and enjoy your impartial approach to reviewing the airguns and related products. I have now retired from work and would very much like to take up air pistol target shooting, at 10 metres level.
I have have found two clubs in my locality, in South Manchester UK. However, I would very much like your opinion, and a review, of some pistols at the budget end of the market please. I'm not intending to go all out trying to get into 'serious' competition as my eyes are just not up to it. And, really, I just want a pastime to enjoy myself, without the stress of getting too involved, as I have other hobbies too.
I have brake barrel pistols in mind, at first, and maybe other formats, like PCP types later on. Also, a review of 177 target pellets would be very much appreciated. Thanks for a great informative channel. Kind regards, Mike
Thanks for answering the difference between 177 and 22. I noticed when i shoot indoors at 10 meters the 22 shoots low compared to 20 outside. Where the 177 is the same or slightly low.
I like the single tray/magazine option pistol.
have tried the Artemis Snowpeak PP800 Gen II air pistol
Thanks!
Hi Andy, found you on ARR OnAir just a couple of months ago and regenerated an 'old farts' (69) interest in all area's involving AIR including pistols for beginners. please follow up with more advice. Also found your new blogs 'Draper' have subscribed to both so please go to stage two for pistols if any. Thanks Andy.
I am new to airguns, i learn alot from you, i love what you do, i have a very simple question for you, if you leave CO2 canister inside the gun and put it away for a some time does it damage the seals ? i thank you in advance, keep informing us
I've watched a few of your exceptional videos and enjoyed the detailed content. I've been wanting to get back into airguns, but my Beeman airgun (the Giss piston system) requires significant rebuilding. The PCP option seems like a nice place to start but the initial investment is considerable compared to my old Beeman. The Diana Badger seems like a reasonable place to start. But I do have some questions regarding the use of an air tank for refilling. If say I have a 4 liter tank that can be charged to something around 4000 psi, how many airgun fillings can I get on that tank before it needs to be refilled? I'm assuming once the air tank falls below 3000 psi it can no longer pressurize the gun to its optimum level. Is there a way to depressurize the gun when done shooting? Is moisture an issue? Thanks for any help/suggestions you have. Rich
Good video Andy...the Artemis repeater looks to be the same gun as the Diana bandit...🤔
Can you do a comparison between conventional lead pellets and those newer aluminium alloy plastic jacketed pellets please?
I like plinking with a pcp gun..but I also like floating on my airbed. Is there a elektric pump which can cover both pressure requierments..
You should do a video 📹 on the Weirach Hw70 Black Arrow .177 if u can get your hands on it.
So much useful information great review
And can you make a test comparison between the two (I have another question what’s the difference between gletcher and wingun mosin nagant m1944 bb rifle?)
Had one of those Webleys.
my first Webley Tempest my second FAS 604
Still got my Webley Tempest. Inc box, paperwork and recipt
@@sahhull I sold mine to get money to put towards the fas 604 which went missing when we moved overseas an entire shipping container missing including my 1902 Diana .177 which was my first air gun given to me by one of my dads clients ( my dad was an engineer /gunsmith)
On my spring powered 1911 made of plastic with an aluminium barrel my bbs get stuck in the end of the barrel does temperature affect this on spring powered guns
I bought a Zoraki HP 01 (or whatever webley called them) being it a pump up thing, I was told that pumping to many times would cause it to be over powered and illegal? And damage the gun. Is this true?
Andy what scope have you fitted to the artemis pp 700w ? Please.
Hi does anyone know the correst size of the thread used on the end of the Hatsan Sortie .177 pcp pistol muzzle..
I have another question what’s the difference between gletcher and wingun mosin nagant m1944 bb rifle?
Wich beginner pcp rifle would you choose gamo coyote of the hatsan flash
Love the content, what is that spring powered break barrel, I’m looking into getting a spring powered pistol? Thanks!
HW70
Isn't the design of the webley (first pistol) based on the Welrod single shot 'silent' pistol...?
Nice! ... 😀👍
Thank you sir can we have another?
I buyed the pp800r im getting mad of chancing co2 on my diana chaser and if im done whit shooting i not worried avout rhat used co2 in my diana annymore
Would leaving the gun pressurised when not in use risk damage?
If PCP manufacturers made the Electronic pumps for these substantially cheaper they would sell so many more guns and accessories.
Me and all my buddies and a few uncles have always wanted them but having to dump so much money into compressed air is unfortunately not feasible.
Think about the I phone for example, it is sold at a loss so they can make money on the back end.
Same thing happens in most business, you make money on some items and loose money on others but in the end it all equals profit. The community getting bigger is what’s important.
Can you do a video on adjusting the PCP regulator, I have a PP800 but want to dial down the power a bit.
Kegan Holtzhausen pull the other leg lol
Good Evening Andy
I am currently in the market for a PCP air pistol and I can’t decide between a SMK PP 700 W , or a ARTEMIS PP 800. I was just wondering what’s your preference would be ? Your opinion would be a great help .
Many thanks Andrew
Nice pcp pistol
10:11 "unless you have fingers like spiders' legs" sooo I should buy this pistol 😂
sweet!
Sig Virtus .22 cal pellet PCP review NEXT PLEASE!
Witch is the best scope to put on a victory cp2 on a tiet budget thanks
Can you use hand pump to charge it up
would be great for duels of honor
A semi automatic 6ftlbs pistol would be a game changer, I wonder which manufacturer will do it first
@Wheaten Zoomies The Aeron B96 is Co2 powered and runs around 3fpe if you're lucky.There's no way you'd get anywhere near 6fpe with those.In perfect working order they're great,out of sync they're paperweights.
@Wheaten Zoomies Storing them internally won't be enough.Even a brew cylinder won't help as it would still be 1000psi tops no matter how big the supply. Compressed air at up to 200 bar would have a chance,it's a pity the gun wouldn't as it is only designed for Co2 and would likely give way under the pressure.
The Steyr LP50 is more suitable as it's pneumatic but costs considerably more.I've had a few B96s,you can shoot all 5 pellets in less than 2 seconds and are good fun and accurate
none.
