You will NEVER get expansion at air gun velocities..

But none of those are good groupings on 40yards for an Impact.

It's not a rifle

I just found this video -thank God- but I got mine from a friend and need to know how to reload it, and can not find another video on this specific gun. I don't know if anything else is similar, and I'd rather not try, honestly😂 anything would help. looks the exact same. 2004 marksman BB I believe..

I do like the fact that they put on what metal they did compared to other manufacturers at this price point

I use hades in my brococks pathfinder and ranger,they are superbly accurate and kill well 👍🤔

Great video!

I've had trouble loading this model. Your review didn't show loading a pellet. Any advice?

Sub 12 is not powerful enough for hades. You need minimum 20ft/lb for it to open up and do what it was designed for

Great airgun, the Walther CP88 is. I got the blued with the wood grips about 8 yrs ago. Your video popped up on my feed today. Forgot how nice looking these things are in the nickel finish. I love seeing others having what I have and sharing.

Pos you need a drozd, can do a magazine in about 3 seconds on semi auto due to the electronic trigger... Never seen anything better for sale in the UK

Excellent review!

I bought one of these and after 6 days only using it for range shooting 3 days of which, and the cylinder stopped working and wont cycle at all, Id recommend passing on this revolver unless you can fix anything!

I feel like an idiot but charging it is impossible for me..

For sub 12 i like the H&N Hornet’s. Better penetration and a little bit of expantion but not much but the biggest thing is that penetration.

any good places for pellets to order them?

I thought semi auto rifles were illegal?

Only one problem may I put this forward, the barrel is not rifled its smooth . Good quality 👌

Like so

I recently purchased a Stoeger XP4. Structurally and in appearance, this is a complete analogue of the Beeman P17. Impressions are the best. Of course, it is not for collecting as a copy model, although it vaguely resembles the "Beretta" (it is not for nothing that the box says DESIGNED IN ITALY). But, as for the entertaining side of the issue, you can't imagine better! Here are the arguments for: 1. Relatively light (the hand does not get tired in prolonged use). 2. The corrugated surface of the handle, which allows you to confidently hold it in your hand. 3. No need to spend money on gas canisters. 4. Bullets - lead, very accurately placed on target. 5. Possibility to use bullets "Glare" (explode upon impact with a hard surface, which is very impressive in the dark). 6. Minimum return. He does not need any "body kits" (LTC, calimator), not the case, he is for "close combat". In addition, body kits will interfere with the process of pumping air - you need to be able to confidently cover the frame when pumping air. In general, I liked this gun, I recommend it. Great choice. There are many different models in my collection, but this gun is in a special place of honor. 👍😀

Just bought one, when I got it I cannot slide the safety at all

I opted for the uk crosman 1377. But since I brought the stock for it, I am still hankering for one of these. I want a pistol which I am not tempted to turn into a carbine. But at that price why not buy the P17 as well. Time to go shopping.

Try a softer material like ballistic gel. As the Haydes pushes through the gel the travel distance and force around it is what helps to peel back the pellet for better expansion. While a bar of soap may seem soft it really is too dense and smashes the front of the pellet and flattens it before it has time to open up. At least that's my theory, hope it makes sense. As for accuracy it all depends on the barrel and/or gun. My NOTOS absolutely loves the Haydes, it's the most accurate pellet so far for this gun.

What kind of accurate distance can you expect from the FX Impact mk3

Only one way to test is on live quarry! With at least 20fpe then look for pellets?hard soap ridiculous!!!

Skip ahead (4) years...how's your DMK22 holding up? How many firing pins have you broken? Have you rebarreled it? Have you experienced any feeding or cycling issues? I just bought a used one and after 300 rnds, I broke a firing pin. Which is on backorder.

Mine had instructions. They're never gonna be collectible just a handy accurate ratter. My only gripe would be you have to make sure it's latched by pushing the hammer / latch forward as sometimes the barrel pops up.

I’ve got one I bought 2 extra magazines and a red dot ACOG scope for it , zeroed it in yesterday at 15 meters absolutely bang on

As others have commented, the .177 hades are travelling faster, and in my sub 12 ft/lbs Remington Airacobra, I'm getting sub half inch groups at 40 yards, and shooting in to full plastic milk bottles , great expansion, in fact the head expands to greater than .22 ..the medium used in your tests is too dry, expanding ammunition is designed to increase hydrostatic shock, expansion being only half of the tale, the cavity in the nose of the pellet , even without expansion causes greater hydrostatic shock than a point or dome, I would suggest repeating the expansion test with a wetter medium, I find potatoes give a good idea of shock as the temporary cavity / hydrostatic shock wave can be seen as bruising beyond the permanent cavity created. Kind regards Rob

Interesting video... I have virtually no experience with airguns, but I do have over 6 decades of experience with powder weapons..... So...... It has been firmly established that bullet expansion is very much tied to velocity. A hollow point lead bullet that mushrooms nicely at 1300fps will not expand at all at anything below about 1000-11oofps. Air rifle velocities are not high, especially in sub-12 weapons, and even with full power PCPs velocities much over 1000fps are rare. From this it seems evident the the idea of "expanding pellets" is more an advertising gimmick than anything. We have found with handgun bullets (which are mostly sub sonic) that maximum wounding effect is from a medium-hard alloy with a flat meplat on the bullet nose, sometimes quite a large one. This is not good for velocity retention but as handguns are rarely used seriously over about 70 yards, this is not really a problem, and I would guess that for hunting, much the same criteria would apply to air rifles. The differences are starkly illustrated by pistol calibre carbines. A .44 Magnum pistol with a 6" barrel can manage about 1100fps with a 240gr bullet, but put that exact same round in a 20" carbine barrel and velocity goes up to around 1700-1800fps and the terminal effect is hugely different. Energy rises as the square of velocity.... So I would posit that best killing effect with an air gun, rifle or pistol, is to be had with very flat nosed pellets with which a good measure of hydraulic shock is possible without actual expansion. As always, penetration has to be adequate, so such flat fronted projectiles need to be driven at a reasonable speed, and speed at impact would need to be over 800fps. That's about muzzle velocity for a sub-12 and probably retained velocity at 40 yards for a full power (FAC?) PCP rifle. For sub-12s I'd tend to go for a pointier pellet for velocity retention and all the penetration I could get. At least, that's what my knowledge and instincts tell me. I live in New Zealand, I am 80 now but have been a life time shooter and hunter (and gun smith) and have recently come to own my first air rifle...a little BSA that is accurate enough for anything that it is capable of killing, at a range where its low power is still effective. My chronograph tells me that the 10-odd grain pellets are spat out at around 1000+fps giving about 17ftlbs. It's just a little springer, but I am surprised at the quality of build and accuracy for the modest price. It even has a passable trigger......I have not considered a PCP as I have a bunch of .22 rimfire rifles (and a revolver) for more gnarly quarry, and centre fires for further up the scale, so the large price of a good PCP is hardly justified at my time of life, although the PCPs are lovely things, even if expensive accessories are needed to run them. My powder reloading gear is not exactly cheap either. 🙂 The world of serious air guns (I discount CO2) is new to me and I look forward to learning more about them as I go.....

What bullets does it take and how do i order them aswell as the gas?

Umarex glock 17 gen 4 vs umarex glock 17 gen 5 which is better ? (gbb version)

Can I get a link to download instructions for using KWC UZI (manual)?

Can I get a link to download instructions for using KWC UZI?

Hi James ,I used to shoot full bore on ranges and for vermin, I gave up about 7 years ago but I am missing my shooting ,so I thought let's just go back to air rifles ,anyway to the point ,is there much difference in accurately between the HW100 and the HWk ? As its got a shorter barrel length, I will only be shooting the od rabbit or pigeon or tree rat ,and might do a bit of barn ratting Thanks Ps we used to do this with a .22lr at 200m as ppl would say they were no good at 200m

Why didn’t you have to buy two tone? U in UK?

King of co2 replicas ! Accurate in shooting, and looks to the original. Yes, the C-More Sight would have completed the build, just like Eric's .....😊

Using the Pard. is it helfull to use a IR flashlight? is it necessary or helpfull or is it the same with an external flashlight. I have a couple of Pards but have not tried the flashlight combo. Thanks!

Question; I just got mine in today and curiously, the ejector rod does not seem to move. Is there perhaps a pin blocking it or some such?

I can't see where you said what calibre this gun was. .177 or .22?

Not allowed Handguns in the UK but you can have this puppy 😂. That’s the Uk government for you all over .

£127 is wild I payed USD$90

Frame cracked where the hammer meets and the mags leak if you leave it in for more than 2 hours, its a cool gun love the feel of it but I dont recommend it till they can fix these issues

Is the forward assist functional on this model?

XThanks Thank you very much

Ram rod is for pushing in the ball on a cap n ball pistol or rifle, on the Peacemaker is an ejector rod.

How do i remove the handle thing?

What? There are no shooting ranges in UK? You have got to be kidding me.

Great ammo for hunting Hawaiian B-52 humongaloid 3" flying roaches shot out of a Crosman 1077 👍

Looks like junk :( im very hesitant to buy one after this
