America has no restrictions
Love the channel and show as always. Can I be cheeky and ask your opinion on the sub £200 Amazon compressor's.. Thanks from a fan in Yorkshire.
@@syitiger9072 good point, but I think he's aiming restrictions advice at his UK audience. That has many restrictions..
Andy: I’m one of those “new starters” and have learned loads from watching your channel over the past year. Thank you! I can tell that you put a tremendous amount of thought and effort into creating this video - as you do with all of your content - but it’s particularly evident in this instance. This is a gem sure to become reference material for new entrants.
All they need is to subscribe to this channel. The rest will all become clear 😊👍
The amount of hours in total this video has saved newbies to get into this pastime is unreal. Thanks
Being a seasoned gun owner (including FACs), I would like to add to Andy’s excellent rifle review with a couple practical issues for first time users. (1) Decide why you want to shoot and talk to lots of shooters, dealers, and watch Andy’s videos. That will help define your purchase options. (2) Be realistic with your budget. (3) Fun back garden shooting - a good pellet catcher is essential and add some cloth to reduce the “ping” sound that may annoy neighbours. Tin can plinking will make a noise.(5) Pest control needs a lots of practice and skill to be humane. (6) The law and safety are paramount, including storage of rifles. Enjoy.
What makes a good pellet catcher for the garden pal?
@@daveshaw5293I use a scrap cabinet. Its rear wall is padded with two layers of scrap rug which allows me to suspend any kind of plinking targets in front of it. It is amazing how long those rugs last. If you have a higher than 5,5 ft/lbs "device" just add as many layers as you feel safe with. I can even place a 17x17cm steel pellet trap in it for the paper target work. I also lay out some square feet of painter's rug in front of it because many pellets don't stay in the cabinet. This for easier cleanup inside and to avoid pollution of the soil with lead outside.
@@ytucharliesierra thanks mate the scrap rugs is an excellent idea 👍
New air gunner here- I’ve really gained all my knowledge of the hobby via channels like this so I appreciate this video!
Restarted air gunning (after 20+ years) during lockdown 2021. The help and information I have received from this channel has been invaluable. Thank you Andy and keep the reviews coming 👍🏴🇬🇧
My suggestion would be to join a local club and try.Most airgunners are pretty friendly and will help you loads,most will let you try their guns out too!.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Greatly appreciate your style of commentary. Had to laugh about "getting of the couch and getting outdoors" while sitting on the couch watching this video :)
Easy to get hooked on this sport , I've got 8 pistols 9 rifles love every one for a different reason, great review andy keep them coming.
That was bloody fantastic .. im by no means a beginner ( 61 yrs old & shooting since I were 13 ) BUT just watching this vid kinda ( and I know its a strange thing to say ) RESET my thinking of the whole airgun experience .. bought back memories from the early 70's .. ahhhhhh great days ...
The best thing is though , getting down the range ( tomorrow will be the first time ever for my mrs , together with her very first rifle I bought her last week ) its the banter and the chat .. the togetherness of like minded people , together with heaps of snacks and soft drinks .. .. fantastic fun .. ( she opted for the HW110 kt , because she's a,short arse ,) ..
if you have good eye sight use the iron sights till you get really good ,and yes a springer is the best start ,it worked for me.after 60yrs of shooting ive gone full circle.
Andy, from an ex vet, thanks mate, learnt a lot about weapons and rules I had no idea about. I hope other ex forces chaps get involved in this sport. Totally different rules from my Forces days, but even with an air rifle, I find myself applying all of the stuff we get taught in regards to shooting, without having to worry about all the 'other stuff' that using firearms in the armed forces entails... Plinking and target work really is therapeutic for me and I am sure it would be for others with similar experiences.
I have tried to watch and like all of your videos, but confess to being very new to the sport, and cramming somewhat, but really want to show my appreciation to both you and Mr.'s AA . Lovin' your work big guy& lass....
Thanks for serving chap , many of us appreciate it though we sadly rarely voice those thanks . I really think airgun shooting is a great form of therapy for almost all that can ail anyone , It's pulled Me through some tough times in My life . It is also a sport that demands a certain amount of discipline which of course You will of become accustomed too , I think You made a good choice of sport , shame some of the bored Youths of today don't get the chance . Shoot Straight Stay Safe & Stay Well .
Great vid! I am in the class of returning air gun enthusiast. Owning a beeman r1 back in the 1970’s. My son would spend lots of time in the garage shooting match heads,,becoming quite proficient at lighting them. Only recently began watching vids of pest controllers in the uk dispatching rats and such with the pcp rifles. What a hoot! Need one of these. Thanks for a great tutorial !
This got my juices flowing. Loved my BSA Meteor Super in the 70's, today's offerings look a different kettle of fish altogether.
Thank you! Looking to get started and I’m pretty overwhelmed. Your channel is wonderfully informative.
Thank you Andy .Always look forward to your reviews .Very impartial and honest .I have learned a lot from watching .
I came back to air gunning after a fifty year break, wish you had made this three or four years ago, I wouldn't have felt so out of my depth. Great video, thanks.
Thanks Andy for my Friday fix.
In Norway there is no power limit for the 177. Thank god hehe
Lucky You ! , I am pleased to here that though , just slightly envious .
Hi Andy, I have been following your channel for about 6-7 months now, and it is very informative and pleasant indeed. I started shooting airguns (again) during the lockdown, after not having touched a gun for over 30 years. And I bought some decent price-quality stuff thanks to your advice. Greetings from Belgium.
whatever subject of the week it's always a pleasure to listen to Andy
Thank you for sharing your the best Andy..
A really good, definitive, explanation. As an 'old' returnee,to the sport,I found this very useful. Thanks Andy.keep up the good work. 👍
Another video that is as much fun to watch as it is informative, as a newbie air rifle nut, much appreciated and enjoyed!!
As always, very informative and a pleasure to watch. Thanks Andy.
I recently got back into airgunning after shooting shotguns and firearms for many years. I purchased a second hand air arms s200 for a very reasonable price along with a pump, Wow talk about accurate and out to 40 yards outshoots my CZ452 .22LR. Great video Andy keep the good work up, the more of us taking up the sport the better.
Hi Andy, loved the Show. Thanks for the hard work you've done. Cheers Simon from York England 😎
I came back to the sport about 11 months ago and picked up the Gamo Phox kit, after using it for a month I was hooked. Then the expense started with a HW100KT, air tank, Nikko Stirling scope and has now moved on to include a S410TDR, a HW45 and a HFT500 with all better scopes. It is a really enjoyable sports and when I bought my Gamo the RFD i when to spent nearly 2 hr just talking me through the options and allowed me to try guns on their own range.
Absolutely great explanation of why one may want to consider the hobby! 👍🙂
Thanks for all the info
I’m thinking about the Barra 1000 with a hand pump
My first rifle was a Crossman multi pump 7600? From Sussex Armoury circa 1980. Fired pellets or bbs. Recoiless, a great plinking gun, just a pain having to pump it up.
Always recall drooling over the paratrooper repeater air rifle in the grattan catalogue. Why it was called a repeater I've no idea. Great channel. Love it.
Another great vid. Loving the book shelf background. Looks like the perfect backstop to me.
An outstanding explanation for the beginner. Appreciated
Another informative video Andy, which I could have done with a year or so ago. I would echo your advice about local gunsmiths. Get to know a good one; beware some can be pants; and then use them for support. Once you build that relationship and develop a trust in their unbiased advice, stick with them. I wasted time relying on the local 'box shifter' before I found a dealer in North Notts. that was reliable and welcoming to customers. Funnily enough, it's the same company that lend Andy most of his 'props'. The petrol to fill by diving bottle costs twice the price of the fill; but the welcome and the craic are well worth the effort.
Thanks Andy for another great review and very helpful to a mid tier shooter like myself I want the edgun leishy 2 just waiting for the uk rifle store stock them and clear up a the understanding but thanks again enjoy the sunshine and shot safe
this is just what i needed ive just got back in to the sport after 30+ years
Another quality and needed topic. And a pleasure listening, great style. Like a cross between the "Mad Science professor" you dared not listen to and the "Favourite Uncle" who let you in on all of life's gems, quality, thank you.
started with a break barrel meteor at 12 then went straight to 20 and 12 bore but always liked the skill of closer range and accuracy required with for vermin control with an air rifle. Something am considering taking back up as now live near a club. Thanks for the vids, which i only just discovered.
Absolutely brilliant information as always! Thank you Andy!!
I would love to see you collection Andy cheers for another lovely review
Great review & info Andy Thank you 👍
Hello Andy. Thank you because like any beginner in the pcp, I was faced with several dilemmas to find a beginner's rifle at the best value for money at the cheapest possible price in 20joules 4.5mm with regulator, bezel and manual pump. You convinced me to buy a hawke 3-9x50 ao mildot (119€) rather than a range of scopes from 40 to 80€. The pr900w gen2 rifle (204€) and a 3-stage manual pump vevor (38€).Total 361€.Hate to mount the bezel as you recommend.Really a big thank you for your work, your intellectual and moral honesty with a touch of humor is great 😉😘
Love your channel. I have returned after being a schoolboy plinker. Got myself a Crosman 1377 until I can find a good club and speak to people who know their stuff. Also decide what's right for me. You are an excellent guide. Thanks.
Brilliant video, well explained and concise. Keep it up Andy. Just bought the Webley Nemesis X can't wait to try it out when it arrives.
Another well produced and informative video from AAR. Thanks Andy.
Great review Andy and team. Very well done!
Andy here is one of my favourite Air Gun CZcamsrs, he approaches everything from an informative standpoint and doesn't just focus on the "big boys" of the industry. I got back into airgunning around 3 years ago, though due to covid, it's been over a year since I last shot, due to health issues and the range I shoot at being closed. Andy's reviews over the last year have at least taken the edge off of that and have given me ideas for what I'd like to look at upgrading my kit to eventually.
Andy I would love to see you review the Lee Enfield Sentry, as I've only found 1 UK youtuber who has reviewed it so far and he just couldn't hold my interest.
Excellent I've always wanted to get in to shooting having tried it when I was a kid.... now at 46 I've just moved and discovered there is an air rifle range just outside our village! Your videos are so informative and im really keen to buy a rifle and get involved. Thanks so much.
What a great video, I love your explanation and passion for the hobby
Nicely done Andy 👍👏👏
Born again novice here and a couple of points to add that you have said before that really helped to make me decide on a quality springer as opposed to CO2 or PCP (apart from cost, of course);
1) CO2 canisters will probably leak out if you don’t use them during a session.
2) Even cheap PCP pumps are also required/best to have a moisture stripper or you risk long term damage due to moisture damaging internals. So buyer beware.
Keep up the good work, my friend. 👍👍
The only therapy that works, Andy, is more trigger time.
Just brilliant.
Thank you Sir, I love this channel!
Wished I had seen this video before i went out to purchased the Norica Dead Eye GRS. Informative video.
Very well explained but would still be rather complicated for the beginner, the show is very well written and narrated, this guy is very likeable.
I have always loved guns and shooting , target shooting to be more precise . Sadly the laws and restrictions in the uk are very restrictive so the easiest way to get back to shooting seems to be the air rifle path , with the added bonus of being very affordable . Let’s see what can be done 👍🏻
Great video, loads of info and very entertaining, thanks
based on your videos, i've recently purchased a new (pcp) rifle to supplement my old (springer) one.
Air gun shooting is all of the things Andy alludes too , plus it's also a discipline which once You get into it becomes addictive , I think I've watched every episode of AAR and everyone of them is full of excellent advise , this one is just the same , My advice is to watch a few more (All would be better ) of the AAR videos ,specifically the one's that have the type of gun Your interested in , and try some other channels such as S&C TV they are currently doing episodes aimed specifically at beginners . On a personal note My preference is for spring guns , maybe I'm old fashioned but I enjoy the feedback from the recoil and the added challenge of being able to shoot recoiling guns accurately , when You pick up a PCP later they feel like Your shooting a laser and are a breeze to shoot accurately , but they feel lifeless - just My observation . Thanks Andy . Shoot Straight Stay Safe & Stay Well .
I also like the nitro piston rifles. They are easy to pump and you use less energy.
Tick - VG Andy! Excellent as always.
However, one of the best bits of advice I would give to a new/prospective shooter is to go to a GOOD gun club.
There, a newbie can get professional advice, but also meet with shooters who will generally share their knowledge, and most will be only too happy to allow new starters to try their own kit.
Difficult subject matey, but you did it proud!
TTFN.
Brilliant as usual Andy. Keep up the great work.
Fun .. Thanks
I must admit I have started shooting again when we went into lockdown and really enjoy the sport again! It can be on the pricey side but then again I have an over priced push bike and a wicked set off golf clubs! lol I did set out to buy a midrange 22 pcp and found it shoots just as well as the top guns! I have a Krale puncher Knight and I haven't seen anyone else with one and its a real head turner down the shooting range. I would have loved if you did a review on this gun as there are not many reviews on CZcams! I might have to do my own on-line review? Any tips??? lol
Awesome bud cheers 👍🏻
Well done Andy
Thanks Andy your videos are very informative and you've got me hooked on the sport just wanted to send thanks 😊, keep up the great work.
I just got back into the sport. Used to do CQB and PvP competitions. I have a 30ft long 10ft wide basement i converted into a isolation foam board and cardboard lined indoor range. utilities are enclosed in a separate room. I bought a crosman snr357 co2 it came with the gun and 6 bb and 6 pellets cartridges has iron sights not highlighted but rear is adjustable with eyeglass size flat screw driver. I bought a dan Wesson 25 pack of bb cartridges for it. And a few revolver speed loaders. I also have a Barra Sportsman 900 rifle. that came with a cheap scope. But has adjustable rail sights with 2 green (rail) fiber optics and red (mussle tip) fiber optic. But find if there's less light behind you then in front of you, the fiber optics don't show as well but with light above/ behind you they are clear greenredgreen. The rear sight is elevation and windage(right side only) adjustable. Easy 10 pumper. Max. I find in my range they work well. I paid around $80 USD forcthe pistol and around $60 for the rifle. The cartridges i mentioned were about $40 USD on Amazon at least the USA Amazon format. I forgot to mention as a disclaimer that i own my home it is a brick row house in a city. I have 1 window I mentioned i lined the walls with insulation boards. I have 2 windows. And for safety while i am shooting I have hinges drilled into the wall with mason screws and 1 inch thick ply wood and insulation board 1 window is at the very front (street side) which is the end i shoot from. And the other window goes to my backyard. Which is only 10ftx10ft and on top of my garage. So my safest option is the indoor range.shooting toward my back yard.
Very good vid Andy well put over 👍
Interesting video as always Andy. Perhaps in a future video you could indulge us with a video showing all of your airguns, both rifles and pistols, and a short rundown of what you like most about each one. I'm sure I wouldn't be the only subscriber to your channel that would find it most interseting. All the very best, Anthony.
Excellent video!
Great video mate, I was shooting 35ish years ago, and dug out my old ASI sniper last lockdown, then bought a Diana from a colleague. Now I want a PCP, I toyed with getting a Huben ( but my wife would kill me lol ).
Time will tell where and what I end up with 👍🏻
I still want to get hold of a rabbit destroyer for vermin. I've read old reviews about leaking seal issues.
Hey am new to shooting I started just b4 the first lockdown and I started with a gamo Spring but after being at the range and that really want to start shooting pcp guns if it's possible would you be able to make a video were we get see what happens and that as we fill up the guns and see how to put co2 in to guns the right way without damaging are new guns and about the air pressure on the guns as so when I get round to actually getting a pcp gun ill have a good idea of what am actually doing lol
I shoot and ride a bicicle and cyceling is way more dangerous 😨 ive been injured more on a bike than i ever have with airguning but no restrictions on buying a bike 🤔
All so true and well said
Well its your own fault for trying to ride a bike and shoot, You shoulda known it would end in tears lol.
I absolutely hate restrictions .
After all WE ARE ADULTS.
Yes,but airgunners get a bad rap.
They are an easy target ( excuse the pun).
Even the 12 foot pounds restriction is a mess because there are so many variables, pellet options etc that a rifle shooting close to the limit can go over with another pellet.
So checking with a chronograph with a range of pellets is a must.
If the gun is proved to be capable of this with the right pellet combo and conditions you could be in a pickle.
Actually I would love to know what foot poundage a golf ball can achieve with a strong golfer?
Unfortunately I can see airgunners targeted again in the future and ownership will become more and more difficult.
I'm hooked lol 😆 thanks for sharing bsafe
as always 1.000.000 thumbs up !
thankyou, im brand new, im sure the gx40 is going to be the starter kit of my choice, il keep you posted, im going to vector on saturday, to purchace, best regards, mike.
Love the vids. Cheers from your restricted cousin from across the pond.
Grate content 👍
Best Big Bore PCP for the money, can't wait to go hunting with it!
My advice to any new air gunners is to try and get yourself a springer weihrauch, if possible an underleaver. The accuracy is astounding and no need for CO2 or pre charged cylinders. Iv had several air rifles covering all the different types and iv still got and will always keep my weihrauch hw97, don't need anything else but the pellets. There's plenty of those too but ignore all the fancy tipped stuff and get sample packs of a few different brands and different wieghts of pellets. Some rifles are a bit picky on which pellets they like and their accuracy can differ quite a lot so if you can't get anywhere with the pellets your using try others. Wieght of pellet is definitely a big factor in sub 12lb air guns don't go too heavy or you may get issues with the pellet getting stuck in the barrel. My sub 12lb HW97K likes most pellets, loves h&n and for 30yrds I find pellets around 16gr in weight are getting the job done brilliantly.
I too have your problem, I collect guns which I probably don't need but it gives me the option to use various types both CO2 and PCP which hopefully will improve my skill. I wish I'd seen a video like this years ago when I first started shooting, I could have saved myself a lot of cash by not buying the wrong type to start with....As always a great video, cheers Andy and Mrs AAR for helping improve the face of this sport/hobby.
Andy .. you should also note that in Northern Ireland, which is still in the UK you need a FAC for any air gun over 0.737 ft lbs, there are also restrictions on guns with lower power than that
Brilliant
I live in Texas we have no restrictions on airguns. Or powder burning guns. But I just want to say that I really enjoy your videos. I have real firearms but I use air guns for practice. Please up the great videos
great vid. just what i was looking for. liked and subbed.
Great video
Im a shooter of many years and the gx40 is a very good all rounder target and pest control made by BSA and british made i recomend this to any one just starting out shooting, my son claimed it. Weight wise its very light and if you look after it you won't need another gun.
Great advice. Can u review the hw100 kt please 👌
Hi Andy I have had air guns ever since I can remember I am a garden shooter, anyway I have just part exchanged 2 rifles one a co2 and the other a springer for a 2-month-old HW45 177 pistol very nice gun, I did ask the owner of the gun shop in Bristol about lubrication points on the HW45 and he said it does not need any,, which I find a bit strange as there are quite a few moving parts on this pistol as you well know, he said people over lubricate their guns, I said I am not going to pour oil down the barrel, but as this gun is not the easiest to cock I thought a small amount of gun grease on the actual cocking movement might help would love to hear your opinion kind regards Alan. Love watching your videos.
new to the sport and looking for info. great video and im clicking subscribe! =)
I don6 know if this has been said - not enough time to read all the comments! - but the gas-ram is a valid alternative to the springer, with a recoil that's easier to manage in my view. Worth a mention I think in this otherwise excellent beginners' summary!
Nice! ... 😀👍
I've got airguns from the 60s and onwards, I recently got my old 177 Diana out (ooo'er misses), that's the one where you push the barrel back into the gun and unscrew the prod at the back and push the pellet into the chamber (about 1and a half inches) it's still works but has the impact of an ice-cream at 100yds...ha ha ha.
I had one of those as My first air gun in the early 1970s courtesy of My Grandad , couldn't poke a hole in a cardboard box at 5 yards ! and about as accurate as a shuttlecock in the wind , but I loved it . Sadly it went missing when We moved house in the early 1980s , Happy Days ! .
@@richarddixon7276 Love your discription of the power of that little gun Richard, I think they are classed as "Antiques" now...or they should be. 😆😂👍
@@andrewkerr4965 I agree , if there not antiques I think they should certainly be collectable. I think "Antique " refers to things that are Over 100 years old . So maybe the term should be Classic or if its over 50 years maybe Vintage is the correct terminology . I used to have an old orange box lined with card board with cardboard on the front , I would hang pictures of Tanks or Planes from the Victor or Hotspur comics , the darts I used to fire would occasionally go through that first layer but more often than not they would be sat there with there flights highly visible , with practice I could hit what I aimed at 95% of the time . Perfect for indoor shooting ! .
@@richarddixon7276 Yes, 100 years to reach antique status, definitely a classic, I forgot about the little darts they fired, blimey I love "Memory Lane". As for the comics you mentioned...I got them every week, had a huge stack then me mum chucked them all out while I was at school, I was well gutted. 😭👍😂
@@andrewkerr4965 yeah My Mum never got that chance , but She did sell My Action Men , I was gutted because I'd hoped to pass them on to My sons in the future , so It's a good job We only have two Girls then . But both of then shoot very well ,and the eldest has put that marksmanship to good use recently , taking several rats in her back garden , with what used to be My 1980s Webley & Scott Stingray , so I shouldn't complain.
I own break barrels and c02 powered rifles. Both are good, but the break barrel rifles require a bit of strength and energy after every shot, and it's a little more powerful than a co2 air gun. Personally, i like the pneumatic piston air rifle.
best air gun channel ever
Thanks Andy. Would you chose the Crosman 2250XL or Webley Nemesis for a first CO2 gun?
Top Notch!!
