I would invite readers to click "buzz" link at top of page. Tom is a PA pro who gave a indepth review of this rifle. It was enough to get me to bite. The Black Ops is an 880 clone with major upgrades: the 11mm picatinny rail is a master stroke! The thin dove tail on my 880 is a worry, and I make sure not to bang the scope. The Ops rail is thick. The easy to grasp cocking handle feels great and locks down well. The hard sights are much improved from the 880. The front sight also acts as a muzzle guard - sorely lacking on the 880.
Things I would have changed:Change pump hook up! Ok, I have an 880, 77xs, M-4, and now the Black Ops. These are all inexpensive to collect and are serviceable hunting guns. I took the Ops head to head with the 880, and it was a dead heat on power and accuracy. Where old reliable (in production since 1972) still out shines the Ops, is trigger pull and pump behavior. The 880 has a short and crisp release by comparison. The Ops takes a harder pull. The Ops pump makes a loud "snap" because of a button that engages and disengages during pumping. So if you plan on hunting in the open field, anything will fly or run away within 30 yards of that racket. The 880 is silent. Now if you do it like me and prep inside a house, then sneak out to deal with pest animals, that will work. Still, that Ops pump needs to be re-designed for quiet action.
What others should know:Black Ops has a double meaning. It is a cool name, but also I believe it is Gamo covert operations. Check out the Bone Collector Cadet to see the similarities. Gamo, a big company, would not let an upstart firm rip off one of their designs like that. Or maybe that is what happened and Gamo doesn't know. Either way this is a great deal for collectors or a newbie. The little scope never got put on mine because I had a variable power one sitting in a drawer. Unlike $100 magnum springers that cause many buyers heartache, like gross inaccuracy and shattered scopes, for $50 a shooter gets a recoiless gun that is easy to sight in and scope with a basic 40-50 dollar Tasco or Simmons. A Bug Buster right here at PA would look great on this Ops. Either way the gun is a good value and worthy of a scope upgrade. Penny size groups at 15 yds for this shooter. Hammer pellets.

This is my first BB gun! I love everything about it. It feels really sturdy, and the pump works really great. I have used it with and without the scope. I was pretty amazed how accurate this thing is without it. Once I put the scope on, I did have to make some adjustments, but once sighted in, its a pretty decent little scope!

The Barra air gun is an impressive choice for both beginners and experienced shooters looking for a reliable and well-built air rifle. Right out of the box, the gun has a sturdy feel with a well-balanced weight, making it comfortable to hold and aim. The accuracy is one of its standout features, with a smooth trigger pull that enhances precision, whether you’re target shooting or using it for pest control. Depending on the model, it offers a good velocity for an air gun, delivering consistent power with each shot. The rifled barrel helps maintain tight groupings, making it a great option for those who value accuracy. Durability is another strong suit of the Barra air gun. The materials used feel high quality, ensuring long-term performance without excessive wear and tear. The design also makes it easy to maintain, with simple mechanisms that don’t require constant adjustments. Some models offer customization options, like adjustable sights or scope mounts, which further enhance the shooting experience. While it may not be the absolute best for high-end competition shooting, for the price point and performance, the Barra air gun delivers excellent value. Whether you’re a hobbyist or just getting into air guns, this is a solid investment that won’t disappoint.

I bought this air rifle for around the house target practice. I just got it today and it seems to be a decent rifle for that price point.

This is my first time buying a BB/pellet gun and I must say that I absolutely love it. I bought it as a safer option for me and my sons to go outdoors and just shoot a couple of targets in the yard. It definitely provides practice for targeting especially with the scope that comes with it. I may switch out the scope for a red dot however, but that’s just my style. It may get a little tedious for some reloading but it provides great practice for young ones to work up to the real thing.

Birthday gift for my sons. They have one each. I put the scope on thinking I would take the time to sight it in. Not necessary, it was dead on first shot about 20 yards away!

Great looking riffle with nice safety features and functionality. Very accurate. However, the scope is a bit weak, but at this price point, it doesn't matter.

I bought this 900 model on March 6 2025 and it performed as advertised, it seems to have decent power for plinking cans at 20-25 yards at 6 pumps with BB's, only things I didn't like was the scope, it was hard to see thru, and I didn't bother using it, the other thing was the rear sight was cocked to one side and when i straightened it out and retightened the screw it didn't really secure the sight good enough which would still move some and I was afraid I would strip it out if I tightened it down any further.

Bought this series about a month ago with intent to teach my 8yr old the basics of riflery. SO glad to have chosen this model and set-up. Super easy to unbox and get started. The scope was easy to install and calibrate. I have already done a few test rounds, and the sights included were spot on. Love the safety set-up at the trigger. Just overall very impressed !

I recently had the chance to try out the Barra 900 rifle black for the first time, and let me tell you, it was an experience filled with laughter and some unexpected surprise First Impressions Right out of the box, the Barra rifle felt solid and well-made. It was easy to assemble, which was a relief, especially since I had my family around to witness my attempts. The design is sleek and modern, making it visually appealing. The Family Experience We decided to make a day of it, heading to a nearby range with my family. As soon as we started shooting, the hilarity began. My brother, who claimed to be an expert marksman, had a bit of a rough start. Watching him miss the target completely while making exaggerated "sniper" poses had us all in stitches. Performance In terms of performance, the Barra rifle did not disappoint. It fired smoothly, with minimal recoil, making it beginner-friendly. My sister, who had never shot before, found it easy to handle and even managed to hit the target on her first try! Her joy was contagious, and we all cheered like she had just won an Olympic medal. Fun Factor The funniest moment came when my dad decided to give it a go. He took aim dramatically and, in a moment of overconfidence, pulled the trigger too hard and ended up stumbling backward. We couldn’t stop laughing, and he quickly dubbed himself the “Backward Bandit.” Conclusion Overall, using the Barra rifles was a fantastic experience, not just for the shooting, but for the family bonding and laughter that came with it. If you're looking for a reliable rifle that’s perfect for both seasoned shooters and newcomers, I highly recommend giving the Barra a try. Just be prepared for some funny moments that you'll cherish long after the day is over!
