That’s a beautiful table of goodies

[@dnick49]

I enjoyed the review. Good Job

[@stevejenkins9984]

Full review texan 357 ss lol. I cant wait till the ss comes out. Great vids guys love it

[@Grafdesgn]

Great Video. You can spend alot of money on a PCP. What you get for your money with the Airforce brand is amazing. I have a Condor .22 with a talon Tunes Moderator and a Talonp .25 with night vision. Add a regulator and they are tack drivers. The key to these airguns is heaver pellets and understanding more air is not always better. I rarely miss with my setup. LOVE THESE GUNS. Made in America.

[@diantrecreagh3269]

Hearing safe NOT QUIET been there done that but still pretty dang accurate

[@22lr_plinking]

I have the talon as well as an escape both in .25. Love these guns. Texan is next. Can’t beat “AF”

[@MiscMitz]

I just got a Texan 457 from you guys. Love it so far. Got a bunch of pellets too. Been trying to find polymer tipped ones but looks like no one has them...

[@WillemLuntungan]

Nice

What could be going on with my Benjamin Proweler Air Rifle when I started to shoot right through cans now I sent them

[@EdBraunbeck]

What are the decibel levels for Talon SS at the various power levels?

[@mikebenoit158]

Dead center shots nice

[@merlesater4484]

I would expect a much tighter group with the big cal. airgun then what you are showing here. Perhaps you were antisipating recoil? as your grouping is much tighter with the smaller cal/

[@mikebenoit158]

Just bought it over this last summer

[@shawndubay4050]

Airforce airguns are Awesome. Great accuracy very powerful and the SS models are pretty quiet. I absolutely love my Airforce Condor SS .25. It is literally shooting multiple pellets right behind each other in the exact same spot in my steel shot box at thirty yards. When it's set at middle to high power hits it hard enough that it rings my shot box like a bell

[@motorgearhead]

How ammo picky is the 308 Texan? And will it print 2” groups at 100 yds if fully bagged & shot from a bench?

[@jacobgreen6939]

Would you say the 257 is the most accurate and by how much? What is the next most accurate?

[@user-us3yy5jx8w]

Hi Mr. I own a texan 308 LSS. I read somewhere that the TEXAN 308 can replace the barrel of the TEXAN 257, but is it possible to replace it with the LSS? Also, is there a video that shows how to replace it? thank you

What's your indoor range distance?

[@nickcol8767]

I wish they made a .30 condor. Is it possible to change the barrel to .30?

[@airgundepot]

AirForce doesn't make any, but a gun smith could probably turn a .30 cal blank for you, however you would probably need a new valve also. Tofazfou and others have converted Condors to .257, which would be our choice.

[@markturboi]

I'd like to see a video on FX PCPs From least expensive to top of the line.

[@airgundepot]

Great suggestion!

[@Biffo1262]

I was handed a Gunpower Stealth the owner had given up on as pellets kept jamming in the barrel. He sent it back twice and they returned it both times as 'no fault' found. However they must have used their own bottle as that is where I found the fault. The top hat had been screwed right down so the valve wasn't opening fully and the valve seat was scored causing a hefty leak. The top hat adjustment was simple enough but how the valve seat got scored is a mystery as the owner swear blind he hasn't removed it and if he had it should have been picked up by the importer when it was returned and that's why I suspect they never even bothered to look at it. I removed the valve from the bottle and using an electric drill I inserted the valve stem into the chuck and reground the valve seat using Solvol Autol. It's a fine metal polishing paste and just perfect for polishing a brass valve seat. After 5 minutes careful polishing it looked fine under a magnifying glass so I reassembled it and bingo; perfect. 8fps variance on a 10 shot string at 11.7fpe. 10 bar drop from 200 bar gave me 15 shots so I reckon about 15O shots in the sweet range down to 100 bar. It's blindingly accurate too. No more leaks either. It's not an aesthetically pleasing gun to my mind but it is light (with a red dot) and easy to hold so it isn't as tiring for me to use at 74 years of age as my own guns. He handed me the gun saying he'd had enough of it and didn't really want it back but I suspect he was more disillusioned by the fire UK after sales service. It was a simple repair and shouldn't have taken them more than 30 minutes to sort out. Now he's full of enthusiasm for it again now he's found someone cares about how they repair. Damn!! The only thing that bothers me about it is the basic way you can adjust the power and, to cap it all, on the gun. Just loosen the the two Allen screws in the top hat and screw out for more power, in for less. To my mind this makes this gun illegal under the VCR act. I believe the import 12fpe valve for the UK should have a fixed top hat but this is easily adjustable on the fly. That's a bit naughty. My only solution is to alumium weld the top of the screw holes once I am happy it is a permanent fix. The plugged holes can always be drilled out for any further repair and that should satisfy the legal aspect......I hope. These Shadow valves are so hard to get hold of but I have ordered a fixed vent Condorvalve from China AliExpress but it remains to be seen if it fits the bottle AND the smallest vent size is 4.5mm. I intend to thread the inside of the vent and make smaller vent threaded inserts out of Delrin. I can experiment with hole sizes to give me different size insert to give different energy outputs as at 6fpe this would make a superb bell target gun and a quiet back yard paper puncher with the ability to swap out the insert for hunting power in a couple of minutes. I'm surprised I haven't found something similar done already on the forums.

[@removeafspainindia6309]

High shot count per fill is preferable for hunting.

[@hardworkingamerican8847]

When will they make a repeater . What are your thoughts on dieseling the Texans or in general for that matter

[@airgundepot]

We will be the first to announce it when AirForce Airguns releases a repeater! Dieseling is almost always a bad thing when it results in detonations, and we never recommend doing it on purpose. In spring guns it will often damage the mainspring and sometimes the seal also. PCPs don't diesel when firing, but if oil or grease make it into the air tank the pressure and heat of filling can cause the dieseling to be deadly!

[@hardworkingamerican8847]

Airgun Depot In those spring guns couldn't you just upgrade the spring and beef up the seals . I saw a seemingly competent guy using a single shot .22 break barrel I believe and it was croning at 1140 without Vic's vapor rub and 1400+ with . He was very methodical and showed how to only put the grease on the cupped end of the pellet being careful not to smear it around . Also watched a 3 part video on upgrading the Texan 457 with a 4500 psi canister with 2 upgraded springs , a medium and heavy . The results were impressive to say the least . I think the Texan 457 big bore is at the top of my list along with another companies full auto .25 for whatever wants to be an idiot and come creeping at night , that hasn't happened yet and hope to God it never does . Looking forward to more air gun tests , thanks and take care .

[@airgundepot]

If you are willing to replace the spring and seal on your break barrel and void the warranty then go ahead! The other problem is that pellets are almost never accurate above 1000 fps. Yes, the 4500psi kit for the Texan is impressive!

[@trackwalliusmc2772]

Air gun depot sells you the $1100 + Airforce Texan but than they refuse to answer their phones or return a text when you call to let them know it broke down. When you buy an expensive quality product and it quits working in one month you expect a quality company to at least call you back. Has been over 4 days now. Not real happy with their response time. By it somewhere else.

[@Biffo1262]

No dealer in the UK will show any interest once they have sold it to you. They're just glad to get shut of their inventory and then stop selling them. They are nothing but trouble.

[@ILOVE2WATCH2]

Can anyone tell me what they think of the Hawke scope that comes with the Texan SS? Should I buy the rifle without the scope and find a better one? Or is this scope perfect for the Texan with not much room for improvement? Anyone?? Please?? Thanks in advance!!

[@loo1515]

Is that anybody know the name of the tool for unscrew the cylinder ?

[@airgundepot]

It's a wrench made by AirForce. You can get them directly from them. However, you can often get the bottle off without the wrench by loosening the set screw and then twisting the bottle counterclockwise until it breaks loose. Then you can finish unscrewing the retaining nut.

[@robertortiz3141]

Not quiet at all in the apple shot.

[@mikec9684]

Im not alone when i say for that much $ i need a multishot! *thats what makes us go to fx. Trust me when i say it was a hard decision but i came up on pumpers, break barrels, the disco, to the.25 cal mrod. So when a guy makes the plunge to hit that $1000 mark ,well it should have more than 1 shot?

[@airgundepot]

The $1000 gun is a big bore Texan, and most big bores putting out that kind of power are single shot rifles.

[@LoneWOLF-ku7mf]

If you need more than 1 shot for a deer then you shouldn't be out hunting. Also let me know what state allows anything under a 30 cal to hunt deer or large game.

[@highwayman1224]

Single shot is what makes them so much fun 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@jisskk28]

@@highwayman1224 ..exactly, too many Xbox snowflakes out here nowadays 🤣

[@Biffo1262]

@@LoneWOLF-ku7mf The ability to make a second quick shot is always preferable. To say you shouldn't be hunting if you can't drop with one shot is rather idealistic. Anything can spook a prey at the vital moment that is a given.

[@rayhart7753]

35 yards should be pellet on pellet. they need to use a better barrel I'd have the 22 anyway over the big slugs

[@joenic4303]

I'm a little disenchanted with my AF talon. Both my tanks are leaking air years later and I get 2" group at 50 yards. CO2 is much less accurate. I would like to get an FX but those are $$. I guess this is a good fit for someone living in a place unfriendly to firearms. I live in AZ where half the state is a shooting range.

[@airgundepot]

We're sorry to hear that. If you picked up replacement tanks they would have the new Ring-Loc valve system which is a definite bonus.

[@joenic4303]

@@airgundepot Agreed-thanks. I may have been overly critical...I enjoy shooting it still, and can shoot a one-hole dime sized group at 25 yards at best. I just want that same accuracy at 50-100 yards.

[@alinm3634]

Great video! I believe the Texan with a fully shrouded barrel (Sound Lock) comes now in 3 calibers: 308, 357, 457. All three have enough power to take down deer and hog, but for me the most important feature is the sound level. That will determine which gun I will buy. Would you please do a sound level test between the 3 calibers. Your help is most appreciated.

[@airgundepot]

That is a very good idea! None of them will be extremely quiet, but if we can we will do a test for you.

[@aboutthemetal8783]

It’s strange to see an American company having success using English platforms, and with raw/theoben now under the umbrella it will be interesting to see what happens with regards to the theoben brand (BEN TAYLOR IS A GENIUS)

[@airgundepot]

Martin, previously from Theoben and CEO of RAW will continue with RAW for the next few years at least to ensure that the production quality and procedures continue to meet the high levels expected of Rapid Air Weapons.

[@aboutthemetal8783]

Airgun Depot thanks so much for the reply guys, Very glad to see your channel isn’t down!

Or am I getting you confused with aoa?

If you had the UK import versions you might change your mind. The Shadow 2 I have is about a much use as a doorstop. The warranty is worthless and the importers simply don't want to know, won't accept it for repair and no dealer will take ANY Gunpower rifle in part ex working or nor will any private buyer show any interest. Absolute junk.

There smaller calibers shoot way to slow and shot count sucks. Especially for the price and in single shot that's 3 strikes for me.

[@brandonmorgan4871]

let me understand something here: You're telling me that, for more than $1,000, I can get a rifle that's much louder, much slower, and more complex than a traditional Gamo or Crosman pellet rifle? And it needs to be replenished with air pressure? What am I not understanding here? Why does this even exist?

[@airgundepot]

If you are referring to the Texan, it is a gun designed purely for hunting. Instead of the 15ish foot pounds your typical Crosman or Gamo break barrel makes, you are getting 500 foot pounds, enough for hunting wild pigs and deer.

[@nickcol8767]

You are talking about break barrels that shoot ultra light lead at around 1000-1200 fps. These shoot very heavy slugs at 1000fps. 15fpe vs 500fpe. Also the shot string accuracy is wayyyy better than any break barrel
