  • REVIEW VIDEO, it's just my opinion! these aren't mine, they are loaned to me for written articles and I'm totally independent to say what I like...for now???
    I don't quote prices as my viewers are all over the world, ask your local shop
    My primary role and full-time job is to produce written reviews but TH-cam and social media is growing quickly so please follow me on Facebook, “Chris Parkin’s Shooting Sports”. Or Instagram “chrisparkin431” for regular updates on what I am using, what’s in for review? I do not organise special setups for smooth video; you get real world footage of my experiences with the products in question. I’m not paid for content or to advertise my opinion on TH-cam so am free to give MY OPINION, yours may differ. Mine is based on Ten years of paid professional written reviews of shooting equipment in magazines in England, U.S. Europe and Scandinavia. I do not buy items and have no reason to say nice things about what I have invested or wasted my own income in, I just say it how I think it when I encounter it. If you like this channel and would like to help support the reviews via PayPal, please use... www.paypal.com... ...and contribute to a growing video channel with weekly updates both on reviews and advice on getting the most from your equipment. Although I have a Patreon account, it seems am awkward format with losses to you and I through their services which are not particularly appropriate to my channel so I would prefer Paypal if you are in the mood!

    Thanks for the review. I know nothing about air rifles but I love to learn.

    Chris, its important to mention that the small 1.5mm allen key used to adjust the power setting as described, should be turned ANTI clockwise (quarter of a turn at a time) to increase spring pressure & power & the reverse is obvious. Small point BUT important.
    Good explanative video.

      There is a very good reason I DO NOT discuss adjusting power on sub 12 air rifles.

      Very much so but restricted by UK law without a Firearms Certificate. I have one along with many rimfire and centre rifles but still appreciate sub 12 for when I need it and there is plenty of shooting in the UK for sub 12 air if that's your goal.

      @AIR GUN MAD ,UNREAL rair comment, if I want more than 12, I use other guns which are overall, more reliable and a lot cheaper to buy and fuel in the long run, no fuss with air bottles etc

    hi Chris,I own a maverick.25 fac and using jsb 34 g,my question is would slugs damage the a smooth twist barrel and do I have to buy a slug liner to shoot say h and n 36 grain slugs.keep up the good work my friend.👍

      Hello, I have the FAC FX Maverick ,25 I use Zan slugs 33 grn, in the standard barrel as fitted from the factory. No slug liner = NO trouble al all. It has been tuned to develop 65ftp & 995-1002fps.
      It is important to remember to re-zero your scope every time you change ammunition, so its a good idea to avoid the faff & stick to what works !
