I have the 22 version it shoots at 11.35 ft/lb and I can hit pellet on pellet at 40 yards. This gun is has crazy accuracy for the price and is great for rats Woodys and rabbits
As a HW100 owner with pressure gauge on the front end of the cylinder I can only say that the gauge is clearly visible without pointing the muzzle of the weapon at your forehead. Cant help thinking that anyone who does shouldnt be allowed near a gun!!!
I agree. Nitpicking over such a thing is pointless just use that good old fashioned thing called common sense.
I have one of these. Absolute brilliant bit of kit. The fact the lever is on the left actually makes it BETTER for right handlers as you don’t have to pull your finger off the trigger nor move your eye from the scope makes for great rapid shooting. The gun is incredibly accurate it’s an absolute gem to use.
6 months later do you feel the same way ? Any issues ?
I'm tempted

@@barry5580 honestly mate this gun is my baby, won’t ever regret it and still using it all the time. Pigeon after pigeon
@@nathanielguillou1288
Cheers. I think it has to be a Christmas present to myself.
*Barry*
totally agree, it's a lovely gun to use and for the money, I paid £330 for mine new in .22 I don't think there's much if anything out there to beat it.
Just bought one of these and one of my bug bears with magazine air rifles is the right hand cocking. I am ambidextrous but prefer right hand shooting, keeping eye on target and finger in proximity to the trigger to preferable to me. I also recently got a Webley Eclipse pistol which is essentially the same to this but without the rear bottle. Looking forward to getting this exercised and shooting. I like something different and this is a nice compact gun
Great review. I bought one of these as a spare gun ! Used for pest control out to about 30 metres. Use a Swift Stumpy Silencer. I never thought I would use the power adjuster . But now , in lockdown and limited to 16 yards of garden plinking , I found found full power was smashing pellets to dust and making clearing up a pain. Having reduced the power to second lowest. Now still does the job but pellets stay in mostly one piece and make picking them up easier ! Must remember to turn it back up when we are released from isolation . 👍
I'm interested in getting one for the ability to drop the power for work in and around farm buildings. Range Right however say in their current manual (and have backed it up in an email) that the power adjuster does not work on the sub 12 ft. lb. versions (which seems totally at odds with what both you and Andy have found). I was just wondering if the instruction manual that came with your gun says anything about the power adjuster being ineffective as it does in the current manual. I'm just wondering if its a function that they have, for some reason disabled on recent guns. Thanks.
@@ColinMill1 I no longer have the NP02.
I think the power adjuster works better with FAC power levels.
I can't remember the power figures I had but turning the power down did have some effect. I did find the Power on my NP02 went up to over 13ft/lb and I think this can be an issue with a few Turkish made guns. Great gun for the money , just a little loud even with a silencer.
I really like this, good price too, and the fact you can use it for terraforming is a big bonus for the budding astronauts among us ;-) great job Andy and I love your sense of humour.
Hi Andy,another great review,i have one of these myself & i think they are amazing value for money,the stock is Walnut by the way,so far mine is ultra reliable & i actually like the magazines,now i have worked them out!!,mine is used primarily for short range upto around 30m & very accurate at that distance,they do spread out a bit the further you go,but for long distance i have my HW100 for anything further.
Very comprehensive and knowledgeable review Andy, many thanks buddy.
Love your chanel Andy and a happy valentines to your lady Co presenter. X
Got one in .22 great ratter, really good gun for the price. It's more than a plinker.
Tried the Kral today at shooting show quite impressed with it left hand action is not to off putting and becomes second nature quickly accuracy was good with a decent scope
Hi Andy good review this was designed from the np01 pistol that is why the docking leaver on the left I can fire a full magazine of very quickly without moving from my point of aim I am right handed. Cheers enjoy your reviews.
It's a curious beast. But those who have 'em and like 'em really like 'em.
This channel is the best channel ever on TH-cam.
I love you so much, and thank you for everything you've done.
ALJASMI QAYED : thank you for your kind comments. Hope you continue to enjoy. Andy.
Bravo 👏👏👏
Good review , Well detailed , Keep em coming thanks
Enjoy the video and don’t forget to visit www.vector-air.co.uk and aar-OnAir.com see you next week. Follow us on facebook.com/andyairgunreviews
Bought one of these a few days ago and once you get your head round its quirky features it's a good little rifle.
Thank you Andrew and Rebecca
Just got one today at the shooting show as a package and got a scope and silencer I have to say I am more than pleased good review as allways
Hi John, I missed those at the show. ☹ may I ask how much you got your package for?
I got myself an NP-02 about a month ago and love it. Mine is a .177, and it was pellet on pellet at 30yds out of the box. The trigger is adjustable and mine is a bit heavier than I would normally have it, but I quite like it as it is.I'm using bkl mounts and a Cobra F1 scope, so your problem could of been your scope/mounts. I love the left hand lever, and I'm right handed.The recessed safety catch is great when out in the sticks as there's almost no chance at all of it being knocked into the fire position.
Still happy with it ?
I'm tempted to get one but what else at same price point might be better ?
Barry
Well said sir!
Great information on that Kral Andy and really nice outfit Rebekah, almost as nice as that smile Keep rockin it guys🤙
If that’s his daughter he should be proud cuz she’s beautiful
I have the Kral npo3 and like Alan Ellison it will put 14 pellets virtually through the same hole
And I have taken out pest’s with it. Fantastic gun.
My npo3 is just as good and like you say will put 14 shots virtually through the same hole.
Nice video... the power adjustment makes much more sense in the States, where it would adjust from 26ftlbs( give or take) down to 8 or 10 ftlbs...
I got mine the other day after watching this video fantastic rifle I give it a 5 star ⭐️ outstanding
Love it
I love my np-02, I’ve got a 6-24-50 scope on mine and I’ve knocked woodys like a stone from 50 meters +! Very capable little gun
Am a huge AirArms guy but you are so right
👍 👍 👍 🏴✌️
I've got one of these today and their amazing. The power is crazy. Got a hawke scope ao ir. And it's excellent. Using .22 air arms diabolo fields heavy. 18.3 grains. Had a little target practice a minute ago and I'm not joking I went to check the target n there was pretty much noting left haha
rifle de aire muy bonito , buen video
"The cylinder on this thing has enough air to form an atmosphere on a small planet" :D Love your reviews sir! As far as I know, you need to clean the barrel of any Kral air rifle when you first get it, as they come out of the factory not so clean.
I can attest to that. Got one of these a few days ago and must have pulled over 25 barrel cleaning pads before it came clean.
He's great isn't he. Very entertaining. Just wish I could make my mind up. Or get some solid advice on which sub £500 PCP to get.
@@jambutty2218 Yes :) I got a Kral NP-03, because since they're made where I live, they cost half the price of what they cost in other countries, and it's easy to fill with a manual PCP pump.
@@noodles8638 Yes :) But some are impossible to top with manual pumps, I believe.
@@noodles8638 Oh, ok :)
I am impressed with the quality for the price and capabilities.
Before use HW 100, I use and use that the performance is similar and the price is many times lower.
excellent review.
I have this rifle and apart from the clocking leaver being on the wrong side it's a really good little rifle I would say it's as good as my BSA ultra that was twice the price. But the kral you can go hunting ever day/night of the week on one fill. For the money it can't be beat
Better than the gamo phox?
I own one of these. Have the HW silencer on too. Its a left side loader as id heard it wasn't intended to be a rifle, just a big pistol. As i'm left handed its works for me. Can testify the shot count is massive.The downside for me is it feels a bit short, and the stock butt isn't very comfy. Also the grip length is too short for a bipod. I wanted the AA s510 but thought id save a few quid on this. Its not a bad gun, just wished i'd saved a bit for the AA. I'll probably trade up eventually.
Andy, I love your show. Can you do a review on the Kral Puncher NP 3 Tactical. Thanks :)
got one of these last year on a deal..cheap cheap..it had an intermittent problem of leaking on fillups now and again..120 pound a cleanup and silicone on new filler probe seals i have a gun really does put a smile on my face..they are noisy out the box but a good silencer will get it whisper quiet..ill take the pepsi challenge this gun will put pellet on pellet at 30 and 40 yards..keep your fx this baby does all i need for peanuts..its a keeper.
As a beginner this gun is an ideal foot in the door of shooting, I’ve ordered one having used a friends at the club, good review and it has made me think I’ve made a good choice so we will see how accurate I can be !! Thanks !
Haha I went to the local shop yesterday to pick my lad up some co2 cartridges
Only came back with the Kral np02. 25 cal 2nd hand 265 tin of pellets thrown in
I've got the bsa r10 se
Also the scorpion t10
I've got the old rapid 7 mk1 very similar mags to the kral bit fiddly of not use to them
But must say thihs little kral is on another level. 25 cal can't wait for the rats 🐁
Great review andy ..😎
Nice video as always. Looks like a good carbine. Take care my friend :) Regards Rune
i like the fact the cocking leaver is on the left as i don't have to take my finger away from the trigger or come of the target great for a follow up shot great review as always
got two of these and had them for years
both modded with longer front tanks and barrels (done by kral)
I have them in 177 and 22
they are predictably accurate and I can shoot all weekend without refil :)
I just fired one of these. Now I'm looking online to buy one, that's how I found this video 👌
Mine likes jsb heavies, much better groups. Very first time I used it after zeroing 14 shots at 25 yards through 1 hole the size of a 5p. Can't fault that for only the 2nd magazine I have ever fired from it!
I have had mine since 2018 and for the money
It can't be beat it shoots as good as my BSA ultra
And 1 fill lasts for ever if your hunting
I've had one of these for a couple of weeks now and the left sided lever is great. On a bipod you almost get semi-auto rates of fire with the right hand never leaving the pistol grip and the left just cranking that lever :-) Not good for a cheap gun, but a good gun at a reasonable price - with pellet on pellet accuracy at 30m.
Very interesting gun for ratting around farm buildings. Being able to knock it back to a power that isn't going to increase the ventilation in a greenhouse after passing through the rat's head has considerable appeal.
Beautiful rifle
Nice gun have a one like it on order just waiting for FAC to come back
Actually decent little rifles!
Will you be reviewing the Kral NP-03 soon ?
Great review love watching various videos from you, still I'd wish you would of chronographed 1 fill showing the consistency and sweet spot. It's a curious one for me but I'm of the opinion the valving inside is rather inefficient as my friends np02 gets a similar shot count from 530cc to when I had a Walther rm8 at 200cc and both are similar price items
I wish we had em in the USA.l like the left side lever,no front weight to slow down right hand shooters.dont like plastic mags. Some more refinement & .22,25 cals, they sale like hot cakes here in the states.
I get pelets on pelets and did from right out the box. Mine seems impossible not to do that. So could be your scope or didnt like pellets. Mine loves field target trophys.
Rebecca Draper is mighty attractive!...so’s the Kral but I’ve already got one of those. Lol 😂
Hi andy great review just got one of these and wondered what type silencer you where using and where could I get one from thanks
Lower power is useful in barns and the like
I got my kral puncher np02 chronographed and it was shooting the air arms pellets diabolo field heavies .22 18grains. At 11.72lb
As a right hander I would prefer the lever on the left. Easier to keep eye on scope when recocking action when on a bipod.
Hi, is the bottle removable(as in fx verminator) or is it meant to stay attached to the action.
I'm looking for an affordable take down rifle.
Cheers.
Did I miss whether that cylinder stock is removable?
I LIKE IT .. ALOT .. ticks all the boxes for a starter PCP on a budget .. I even like the looks , so on this one in gonna give neck too all the normal attempts at humour and go straight in
Good points = cheap , stylish and accurate enough
Bad points = well the build quality ain't top end , but at the price bracket it's plenty good enough
Would I buy one ..YES .. as a total package , in my opinion the best thing reviewed on here ... ( Taking all into consideration ) .. would CERTAINLY buy one for my first born grandchild .
Love this review last bit done it for me same thoughts scary llf 👍👍👍🏴✌️😜
you can get a regulator for them on ebay for around 75 pound off R Lane.ive put one of his in my FX Cyclone and theyre great!! :) ...so its all good for the NP 02!
I'm a leftie so I'm happy they thought of us.
I am considering one. Plan is to never sell / part-ex it, simply to hang on to it as a backup / spare when I have learned enough to buy a more top end rifle. Could yet go the Hammerli 850 route 🧐
Update what you do.
Where ya gonna buy it from ? I have a hard-on for one myself
Quad Almighty : Things happen. I went out expecting to buy the NP-02 but place was shut so I went home. Just about there the phone rang & another supplier offered to let me in .. I walked away with the 850 because of the great package price. Another thing, I offered to take my granddaughter along for a shoot, got a firm ‘Yes please .. Can mum come too?’ So, my next shoot will be a bit of a family shooting expedition & I’ll borrow guns for them. Expect I’ll have to buy lunch too 😉
Can you review Kral Np 03
I’m left handed and find my hw100kt perfect for me as I can speed shoot where the cocking leaver is as I can hold finger over the trigger and cock it with my right hand without leaving my aim. On this rifle I would have to switch hands, but this Kral puncher looks an awesome piece of kit! 👍👍👍😃😃😃😃
ordering one now! been looking for a while but at that price for a PCP multi I have to buy it! and its short
I would like to see Andy do a video on the new kral NP03 to see what that can do if it's a improvement on the NP02 I think mine will be getting a big brother soon
The np03 is more of the np01 big brother. The np02 is the black sheep of the trio.
I have to say Andy, that I am so pleased that I have come across your channel. I used to have a Daystate LR90 in 22 form and loved it. Now I'm looking to get another rifle that I will probably use every so often I love the Daystate Pulsar but it seems a lot of money to spend and to be honest the review you've done here is superb. So it looks like this will be my rifle of choice. May I ask if you think it is the best air rifle under £500.00 and also which scope & silencer do you recommend. P.s I like to shoot 22.
Thank you for your kind comments. choosing the right gun can be a nightmare and there is no one gun for everyone, and it is a very personal choice, but take a look at this review and I find this package a really good budget choice, th-cam.com/video/6b0ko5ueFIo/w-d-xo.html
thanks for watching.
@@AAROnair Thank you, I will do once I've finished watching one of your other videos. I'm watching at the moment.
Can you do some more reviews on some of there other rifles? Been looking at getting one but there isn’t many good reviews on the others. Would rather have a in depth review on them.
its actually faster cocking it on left hand side as a rightey
Ive always liked this model? It came available just at the wrong time for me.
have you tried it with jsb hades yet
Help. I am buying a np02 (Guernsey) and putting the vector 3-12 X 44 on but what size mounts? Contacted vector air and they couldn’t advise.
Low, medium or high?
Thanks
I have a kral puncher, really nice but of kit. The only thing I HATE about it is the mags, the spring pressure from the mag on my .22 is more than enough to deform the skirt of the pellet. So if your any more than 30 mins between shots you can garentee that the first shot out the gun is going off with the fairies. Which when using mine for rabbits on my permission is a pain in the back side. For some reason mine didn't come with a single shot tray!!
Bit of a unfair comparison, thr kral is what it is , a good small rifle for the money, 👍
Yes i agree with you kral some thing new air arms s510 side lever s410 make over . S510 eay over priced . For a gun that dos not make its own barrals .= lother walther . Barrals need i say more . If i was to buy id go for a gun like kral .
I know I got on you a bit about The Whole cruelty to animals thing. It just makes hunters sound like bad guys or something. Anyway we all are entitled to an opinion and just know I always give you a thumbs up 👍 because I do believe you are a decent human being. I’m from New York and there aren’t that many nice people here nice maybe but rude as hell. Will be leaving Long Island soon by New York.. well done carry on.
Can the air canister be screwed off for easier transport?
I would love to get my hands on an unrestricted model of this Carbine
Hi av you ever had your hands on a Kral puncher empire x if so wot r your thoughts 👍
I felt like i was cheating on bsa as i have 4 ... went to the gun shop today. Went to the range and its just as good as my 1k riffles 50 yards spot on .. wish it had a stud for a bi pod
Just for mine yesterday. Still getting used to it and breaking it in.
How you getting on with it now ?
Would you recommend buying one ?
Barry
@@barry5580 if you are on a budget then yes.
It's pretty accurate out to 50 yards and handling is a breeze.
Personally however, I have my eye on the Edgun Leshiy 2 when it's released in the UK.
@@MrDanielpope75 edgun is £2.600
@@thetgrenadegranada1570do you mean the leshiy 2? I need to figure out a way to buy that rifle without my wife finding out. It's the last one I will ever buy.
you could probably stick a little dentistry mirror in front of the gauge so you can see your air pressure from an angle maybe?
Please people, don't check the pressure by pointing it at your head. Get a tiny mirror mounted just 1/2'' ahead of the dial pointed back towards you (you could even put it on a hinge, to avoid glare) Personally, I've got one attached to my glove so I never have to do that. Hope this comment saves a person's eye at least.
Hi i have the kral and to be fare cleaned the barrel and put a decent scope on and the results are pritty amazzing 38yards pallet on pallet doesnt miss a beat i find presizing supper domes work the best
Still going good a year later ?
I'm tempted to get one
Mine loves jsb heavy's
For the money the kral can't be beat
your shooting through grass or some kind of plant, that might explain grouping
as a lefty all I can say is welcome to my world where the cocking lever on the wrong side for easy use unless you pay a stupid amount of money to get a cocking lever on the side you need it
beeman bullpup /kral puncher breaker /hatsan flash pup /need a comparison over 30 /40 /50/yards for accuracy and price so please can you do this as it would help people choice thanks .
How long distance can deth guy?
Accurate, well made but I can't get used to the left hand cocking.
Still waiting for that new review for the Umarex SA10 Andy.
Don’t worry my friend, it is coming. I work in advance, and not just week to week hopefully to make me more efficient. It is pencilled in for a 22nd March release date, but loads of interesting stuff between now and then for release. Sorry to keep you in suspense.
@@AAROnair
Thanks Andy.
Interesting
Now you know how us lefty's feel .
i own one and its a nice rifle with one major downside. eventually you will have to replace seals. mine began to leak around the bottle 3 weeks later after using heat, cold filter wrench etc it still refuses to move a mm same with the copper pipe connection at the bottle end. its brass and Loctite in so hard that even after using a blow torch on it its not moving at all and the brass nut is just braking apart when trying to undo it. I'm used to Loctite in my helis and worked as mechanic so I'm used to things being tight but this is a joke. mine currently is a expensive ornament. overall its a nice rifle but would i advise anyone to buy one not after the experience ive had trying to fix a very simple problem
Is it possible to sand the stock down?
This gun available in Pakistan or not if available. which city please tell us.
3 times price, in my country Thailand it be like 9 times :(
ordered my Flashpup QE like 1000$
Most pcp airgun makers have took alot from the hw100,design.
@@gr-s2143 my hw, shoots great ,but your bound to get a bad batch occasionally it's like anything made in large numbers , side lever cocking for one ,you only need look to see.
@@gr-s2143 I agree but what I was originally trying to say was ,,,take a look at the gun take the buddy bottle of the back ,picture a stock ,,the guns like a cheaper knock off version of a hw100, .
I've noticed though that now the guns are getting less an less in ,like skeleton versions or guns ,, but get more expensive....👍
Take care my friend. 👌
