AirForce Texan LSS .45 Cal - A Quiet Powerhouse of an Airgun!

The Texan LSS is a remarkably quiet and powerful big bore airgun! And we don't want to give away too much, but if you want to see how accurate it can be you need to watch this video! The LSS isn't a compact brush gun, but if you want the ultimate in power, accuracy, and silence then it is the gun for you!
It has the same long Lothar Walther barrel as the original Texan but AirForce has finally given in to customer demand and added on their proven Sound-Loc technology to make it an extremely quiet big bore. It still isn't backyard friendly for most backyards, but with this much power you wouldn't want to shoot it in most backyards anyway!
The most accurate ammunition we shot in it were the NSA 350 grain hollow point, rebated boat-tail slugs, and it was almost unbelievably accurate with them.
We have put together combos that will get you outfitted with everything you need while saving you quite a bit of money, so check them out!

THAT INTRO! THAT CHEST HAIR! THAT FRO! OMG! Man, you studied him well......LMBO! I forgot this was a airgun review....lol. Had the chance to shoot this gun that Hunter1 just bought and she is accurate. Touching holes at 200 yards with the NSA 350's

[@mr.b4634]

Man you guys have such creative intros I love it. Great information thank you for sharing

[@quentincastellanos3296]

very nice opening! Loved the hair!

[@ajmnuisanceanimalcontrolll3895]

It's not to long and would make a great brush removing piece of equipment. Since it's a single shot, you can swing it around and kill everything in sight. You can attach an ax head to it and cut down trees. You can tie a string and hook to it and catch fish. Attach a shovel or broom head to it. You can test the thickness of the ice when fishing in the winter. It's a great all around survival weapon.

[@Wickedstickyflowers]

Just so you know Bob Ross ain’t no joke…. Drill Sargent one upon a time

One correction: the 50 yard group was shot with the NSA 290gr slugs, not the 350gr slugs. Also, here's a link to some additional chronograph testing with very heavy slugs: facebook.com/AirForceAirguns/photos/a.312102848857883/2245933742141441/?type=3&theater

Great shooting man! Wondering if i should use the 350 also in my Carbine! I have a Carbine with the TX2 valve.

[@airgundepot]

You could try them, but the NSA 290s might work better in the shorter barreled gun.

[@hpw8334]

when you remove the sup pressor does it look the same as the non LSS model?

[@tyl8ter]

it looks like the " suppressor" has a connected tip...about 2 -3 inch?...if so, why? Thank you

[@jimmcintosh3075]

I appreciate the DB meter, what does the shorter suppressed model register. trying to compare relative length and sound velocity decrease and of course accuracy will be marginally less with less of a tube.?

[@andywatts7130]

137 db on the texan ss

[@EarthSurferUSA]

Interesting echo in that pipe shooting range. I bet somebody can use that sound in a rock song. :)

does the .45 fit with a .457 or only a .45?

[@krodkrod8132]

I want one of these for Coyotes at 50 to 100 yards. Will the .357 be good for that? I'll be in a 3 story nest. Won't be running around.

I love these rigs but the dove tail, even to shis day, I mean . . . . common man.

[@michaelmeier3919]

I would like to see outdoor decibel ratings of the .50 Texan LSS vs the un-suppressed carbine .50. The primary consideration for purchasing the LSS model is how quite the moderator makes the shot. This information is not available on the Airforce website and requests for the decibel ratings from them has not been answered.

[@airgundepot]

We'll try and do a comparison.

[@Gunner-ll1zd]

Super funny!

[@NobodyHere44]

I don't care about the length at all it feels more powerful and more accurate with the extra length added to it

[@rudavathsurendra6811]

How much is this gun in india and how can I buy it this hun plz tell me

[@hunter-jx4my]

Can someone there tell me if its OK to use ballistil oil on the bolt probe o-ring on my pcps or should I stick to pure silicone oil ?

[@airgundepot]

Ballistol could be combustible at those pressures, so we recommend silicone grease (not oil, which can also be combustible at high enough pressures).

[@elijahhughes6455]

If you could make the can easy to take off for transportation it would be a lot more appealing to me

[@gilb9593]

Does this gun compete with the Umarex Hammer, and how does it compare?

[@airgundepot]

When the Hammer comes out it will compete with the Texan but it's hard to say how it compares because the Hammer isn't out yet. So we don't know how accurate it will be or how it will perform in any way.

[@garypostell5268]

Travis just not right!

[@edhoreynd8685]

This gun now will be so crazy 😜 with NITROGEN Lol

[@christiangonzalez6122]

Texan should come out with a 20mm Texan lolol

[@kevinalt1707]

So the tx2 valve is just the valve with the return spring removed??

[@AirForceAirguns1]

It's got quite a few tricks up its sleeve. Removing the return spring was a big part of the redesign, it also allowed us to remove the spring retainer which blocked some airflow, making the new valve more efficient. We've also redesigned the valve pin, the valve seat, and the valve body to flow more air and to be overall a smoother operating system.

[@R.KaandorpProductions]

@@AirForceAirguns1 Sounds good, however is understand this is NOT the CF tank with 250 bar fill, but still the first aluminum tank with 200BAR, correct? so the CF will gain another 100 joules to it? Looking forward to your reply pleas. im in the market to buy this great pcp, however it seems the supliers here try to get rid of the 'old stock' first, without the cf 250bar bottles so less power. Please let me know. thanks in advance. grts.

[@alpha2zulu854]

what is the effective long range of this airgun? 200 yards?

[@HunterXenios]

probably more, 400-500

[@homerororor]

Is like 600-1000

[@Bc-um9qx]

How long can the gun be stored in the ready to fire position loaded ? Indefinitely?

[@freedomchannel3656]

I leave mine ready to rock

[@MasterQuack14]

It depends on the type of seals. Anything with a rubber or softer based o-ring should not be left under pressure for anything past normal use. Anything with copper ring gaskets should be fine for quite a long time. Do be aware that all seals left under pressure, especially at 3K+ PSI, will eventually fail. Probably not the best firearm for some form of home defense unless you use a high quality ball valve between the tank and the firing valve.

[@lindseyzacek5211]

@Bryan Rutkowski he must have not got the memo send instructions anything under 1200 PSI is bad for your gun.. I have kept my Benjamin bulldog full for 7 years and never linked and never will link air

[@zhingonizuka5537]

That's an artful painting class. The painting alone worth a thousand awesomeness especially the one in LSS .45 cal style. Start saving my $1 for turkey day. But why a .257 still better than .308? Any explanation sir?

[@AirForceAirguns1]

The .257 bullets just seem to fly better, better BC's than similar bullets in .308 means a flatter trajectory and better accuracy. Also, .257 has been the go-to caliber for folks modifying the condor into a big bore for quite some time so there seems to be a better selection of ammo out there as well.

[@zhingonizuka5537]

@@AirForceAirguns1 Thank you for the explanation and it does make sense for flatter trajectory of the projectiles since the V2 valve is the same as .308 cal. It also true that the .257 got more slugs selection. But why Airforce didn't make a regulator built on top of the bottle for more shot count and consistent shooting? I think everyone would be very happy to upgrades their bottles. I know I would...just a suggestion 👏😍👍
