Hey man. I gotta say that I'm impressed with the power of the Alfa. I was pretty close on more than 1 occasion to buying it, but then I had to step back and "do the responsible thing". Unfortunately watching your video didnt help, and now I really want it! You did a great job on showing the difference between the 2 and I'll definitely be picking it up when the time is right. Thanks again man...good job.

The Alpha it is. Another great feature is that it seems that it does not need to be modified to increase the power. For me that makes it a total no brainer. I have a HDS .68 (16 Joule) Since it only holds two rounds at a time, it's loaded with something a little bit more spicy. (Less than lethal - self defense only) Can't wait to see the BB version. Nice work.

I have both the Alpha and the Bravo. The Bravo has a problem when 6 balls are loaded. The spring-loaded follower which pushes the balls together gets bumped when firing the first shot into the locked position to the far right making the balls fall out of the filler hole. I only load 5 balls to make it work.

Hi Kelvin, my favorite CO2 less lethal is the HDR 68 (16 joules).

While for the revolver, in terms of ammo, the sky is the limit. That said, the Alfa has been around much longer and has proven to be a good gun. The Bravo is quite new and it’s less tested… Best of luck!

This is just my opinion. I see how much fun using extra hard projectiles at high joules settings can be. Seems like lots of fun to wreck plywood, coconuts, watermelons, etc. However, for home defense purposes, that ammunition, at those settings, goes into dangerous territory. The less-than-lethal guns are supposed to inflict pain and scare away the intruder not seriously injure or kill them (think of an 18-joule or higher aluminum pellet to the sternum or forehead). And yes, I know that intruders in your house should get whatever is coming to them but, if that's the case, might as well get a real gun. I think that one advantage of the less-than-lethal is that people would not (or should not) hesitate to use them, while a real gun will always make people hesitate. Again, I'm not criticizing your testing or your channel, which is a fountain of knowledge. Just thinking about how I would use these tools.

Hi my friend, thanks a lot and you make a very good point. The line between lethal and non-lethal can be quite thin at times. You do have to keep in count heavy clothing, helmet wearing and high adrenaline/drugs factors - which if confronted with, you would probably feel more comfortable with stronger ammo and more power in your gun. If the guy walks in flip flops and a t-shirt, well then rubber-steel balls at 11j will do it. Hahaha! All this to say that the scenarios are infinite. I like to test the limits of these things and the effects they have on objects which help gage their power. I am however stepping away from modified guns and sticking to factory made. Again thank you!

But because I change cartridge before every test, I go through a dozen at least in a very short amount of time, often releasing half of the CO2 at once. I figured I’d lube those seals a little more.

Sorry for coming on late, my friend. Having huge issues as you know. Well, I have to say bravo to the Alpha, which is the clear winner here. I’m glad, as I am very biased. I literally hate any firearm that resembles a Glock. They are the most ugly firearm made. They look like they came of a Mattel Toy Factory. The Alpha, although the least expensive, looks like a real gun, the beautiful Italian Beretta. The Italians know how to make firearms. Again, sorry for being late to watch your video. By the way, love the intro, as I do all of them. You should write for Hollywierd. 😊

Can you please always explain the gun in question how much joules is the "volume" of each gun tested!
@AirgunAlley
@AirgunAlley Жыл бұрын
Hi! Not all guns come with a variety of joules powers, like Umarex does. That’s why I calculate the joules of each gun in each video every time :)

@Joreel Жыл бұрын
Its odd they didnt perform the same as both are rated at 18J and both fire at 500fps according to the manufacturer. The only difference is one is all metal and the other has one more shot. Internally they are exactly the same. There is definitely something broken on the Bravo and you might want to get that checked out by the manufacturer.

La compro per la casa, qua' in Italia, non avendo il porto d'armi e invalido .Anyway I was uncertain with the Umarex t4e 50 or 68 revolver as it is more versatile on ammunitions,or is it ?Cannot use the Cododo bullets ,do i? . Saying that i hope i wont need to use it against anyone unless necessary ,i undoubtely will as i already survided😅 a frontal RTA with a nightmare of pian and smashed both legs with a thin can old Fiat 128 ,you are young not sure if you can fugure it out 😄 ..So i don't wish pain to anyone ,franckly .Anyone life's sucks at times !Fantastic videos mate ,i mean it .Take care ✌☮🤞

It’s baffling! Same exact gun. The only thing I did with it, between these two videos, was the one where I shot ONE arrow (muzzle-loaded) followed by shooting the balls. I seriously doubt that’s what did it. I didn’t realize the drop was so big compared to the other video - till the editing. Otherwise I would’ve addressed it better! 🤦🏻‍♂️

Desde 🇵🇹 Portugal 🇵🇹 👍 Sinceramente fiquei um pouco desiludido com a prestação da LTL Bravo 1.50, ou de passou algo de estranho pois já vi em outros testes a pistola LTL Bravo com melhores prestações, em comparação das pistolas LTL Alfa com a LTL Bravo, a LTL Alfa 1.50 parece mais um brinquedo, muito plástico, um pouco grande e a sua qualidade de construção deixa um pouco a desejar, tanto que na comunidade, fóruns, a bastantes queixas e chamadas de atenção para a maneira que se arma a botija de CO2, pena a LTL ter continuado com o mesmo sistema na (nova) LTL Bravo 1.50 , já que segundo custa é propício a futuras fugas de ar.... Eu devido mais a qualidade de construção e acho mais bonita, menos com aspecto de brinquedo se compra-se era a (nova) LTL Bravo 1.50, mas parece que se quero potência então tenho que ir para a velha escola 🚸 LTL Alfa 1.50 que cá na Europa é vendida a vir de fábrica com 18 Joules.... Mas a tanta gente principalmente de França a falar mal da LTL que se calhar melhor mesmo ficar pela credibilidade da Umarex... 💪

tell your wife if she would have shot that prowler with one of my 38 to 42 joules modded hdp.50's , the prowler would still be there so he could be dealt with you and the POLICE lol !!! things needed for the build , HDP .50 , all homedefence mod parts like , power valve pin , 2 piece tuning barrel , a sniper barrel extension, a silicone handle sleeve for grip , a push button knob for easy piercing and co2 removal , real fast and easy thats needed in certain conditions , and a complete lubing job to the internals , modded springs , recondition certain parts to make em better , etc.etc.etc. !!! as long as you stick with 12 gram co2 ,you will have a marker that will last decades probably , and please dont run over it with a vehicle like they do with things you often see on info-mercials lol !!! its time you have something you can truly defend you and your family with my friend . now on your .68 , lets make sure you got the best power valve pin from homedefence24 and put you a 2 piece tuning barrel on it . if you wanted to do it yourself , i would be glad to do a conference call with you and help you through doing it yourself ,that would be real fun !!! .... its pretty easy if you know the tricks of the trade lol !!! i only get 38.2 joules with the HDR.68 thats with a 2 piece tuning barrel , it will be more when i get another barrel ext.for it , but im happy with it;s performance , its super loud ,well all of them are now , and not so back yard friendly any longer lol !!! these are all true joules i profess bud , not hyped up imaginary fps that some others claim . according to all the different testing i do , its all the not "non" , but ,,, "less than lethal power " you will ever need to get the job done in a safer way of course !!! ...

You never address why the bravo performed so much worse than you other video seems like something isn’t right mine shoots over 20 joules and has for over a year of owning it yours went from 19joules I’m one video to 13 in this one ????
@AirgunAlley
@AirgunAlley Жыл бұрын
To be honest I didn’t have in mind the numbers it had gotten in the previous video, to compare. I could’ve indeed done my homework better. Fact is, you can shoot these guns 10 different times and get 10 different results. Depending on temperature, how well did the CO2 cartridge pierce itself, etc. I would have to rewatch it, but were they the same projectiles? Just recently someone told me they saw a video “HDR 50 vs Torpedo Revolver” on another channel and the results in that video were the exact opposite as mine 🤷🏻‍♂️ go figure It’s been a while since I’ve shot my LTLs, I need to pick them up again and do some testing, your not the first person to raise the issue.
