this gun is great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=twh1brrOrWo

the bolt action is very stiff and I would include another magazines. also make it easier to mount a bipod.

its not pellet fussy at all

Accuracy and comfort.

Bolt action is way too stiff

Just because it's inexpensive doesn't mean it's cheap. This is an awesome pcp for under 400 bucks. You can't go wrong.

zero after spending days rebuliding my pump and checking my the tank... i realize my new gauntlet leaks like a sieve. And yes i bought it from you.

buy something else

crap

It's very accurate for a sub $300 rifle and the shot to shot consistency is awesome. I went with the .25 cal. for small game hunting and it kills squirrels with authority.

I'm a fairly large guy (6' 1" and 195Lb) and everything on the rifle is incredibly stiff and hard to work. The bolt is so hard to work at times I thought I was doing something wrong. Its very difficult to lock back as well. My wife occasionally has to use both arms and brace the butt against her hip to get the bolt closed. The manual safety on my rifle was also super stiff and I thought at first it was broken, nope, just really hard to actuate. The safety on my wife's rifle operates smoothly though.

If you don't want to spend more than $300 then its a good choice. My wife and I weren't sure if we'd like air rifles so we didn't want to drop a ton of money on them. If you are willing to spend more there are much better choices. I love the accuracy and it's a good small game rifle, but I'm already researching higher end rifles to replace this one as the stiffness of the bolt and safety mean its not much fun to shoot. Hopefully the rifle will break in after a while and become easier to operate.

The accuracy, power, low noise level!! I have the .25 version, and head shots on squirrels at 60 yards plus have been no problem. The gun is more accurate than me. :-) At 60yards I get 1/2 inch 5 shot groups with Baracuda Hunter 28.47 grain, shooting off a bipod. CRAZY ACCURATE AND LETHAL!!!

Not much!! This can be easily modified to your individual needs and desires!!

The rifle is a little heavy but shoulders, and aims well. My rifle loves the jsb 25.39, Hades, andH&N Baracuda Hunter pellets. The impact of the pellet when hunting is louder than the shot itself!! This is awesome as is doesn't scare game animals, or annoy the neighbors!!! I get 27 good shots per fill, but will be upgrading to a 4500psi bottle and a 2000psi regulator soon, as this will increase power slightly, and will drastically increase my shot count per fill!! This rifle is also very handpump friendly!!!

Great bang for your buck. First step into the PCP world. Looked and looked and looked for about 6 months before choosing this rifle. Accurate, pretty quiet, simple, absolutely hammers crows and ground squirrels with 26gr hybrid slugs. Consistent 870 FPS shot string, with ragged hole groups at 45 yards.

Nada, zilch, nothing, only purchased sooner.

If you're on the fence, like I was, go with a regulated rifle over the bullpups. I think that consistency in shots is better than not. I slapped an old leupold varix3 6.5x24x50 I took off the Lazzeroni Warbird and it provides the glass to punch a fly on your target at 45 yards. Hopefully can upload a couple of pictures.

Got the Gauntlet in .25cal and it hits very hard using 20gr. H n N FTT at 50yrds it's quarter size groups got some JSB and FX 25.39gr pellets but haven't tried them yet also got 26gr. Polymags haven't tried them either, just got the rifle a couple days ago and I'm going to "season" the barrel with the 20grs. Right out of the box this rifle's shooting great, like I said, quarter size groups at 50yrds and I barely got a hundred rounds thru it! It's a loud rifle, like a .22 short but I live in the country so it's no big deal even if it was f*** it... put a UTG 3x9x40 Hunter scope on it and it's a pretty good combo since I'm only gonna be shooting out to 60-65yrds, got a few coyotes and a bobcat to get rid of and this is the rifle to do it with, with the Polymags...just a little FYI I got the handpump and it's not to bad to pump 'til you get close to the 3000psi mark then it's a F***ing bitch, I'm 57yrs old 185lbs and I have to REALLY put my fat ass (lmao) into it to get from 2500 to 3000

Nothing to change this is a bad ass rifle I'd recommend it to whoever wants to get into PCP airguns...This is my 1st PCP I have 3 break barrels a Benjamin Summit .22, Gamo Varmint .177 and the Remington 725 (which the scope rail fell off) and I can't believe what I've been missing with this rifle, it hits so damn hard it's ridiculous can't wait to go hunting to see what it does to the poor squirrels and rabbits on the receiving end of a Polymag

If you can, get a 4500psi compressor (they're very expensive) the handpump will wear your ass out (lol) I shoot 2 mags 8rds each and it takes 75 pumps to get it back to 3000psi I shot 3mags and it took 150 pumps to get to 3000psi F*** that!!! Lol it's doable but you'll hafta take a break after wards lol...I got the 10 for 10 and my rifle came with 2000psi in the tank, left it charged over night to see if it'd lose pressure and it was good the next day, the trigger isn't to bad outta the box I need to adjust it, it's got a lot of "creep" to it...Another FYI...I was sent the Benjamin handpump came with the bundle, 199.00, they have a Umarex handpump for 179.00 wtf didn't they send me the Umarex pump since I got a Umarex rifle, wtf? Lol guess they wanted extra money!!! The magazines aren't bad haven't had any problems with them yet, the bolt on the rifle is a little tight but not as tight as when I first got it so over time it should smooth out

For the money this is a great rifle shoots perfect and looks like a real rifle

Nothing

If you want a single shot & Accurate this is the one.

Accuracy and value

Upper sling stud is useless for a sling. Single shot tray is a pain to load the pellet with the scope on.

Love the rifle overall. The Gauntlet is my first pcp rifle.

This rifle is a tack driver and in .177 at $200+ dollars there is nothing that will touch this. I like the feel and size of it and just how awesome it looks.

Trigger needs serious adjustment out of the box and does take a little work to do it, but once adjusted it is much better. It should be at least closer to being where it should be.

Buy it!

es economico para todas las opsiones que posee

e;imonar un poco de peso en el mecanismo de la culata

es verdad lo que indica con respecto a los tiros y la presion de salida de este

Excellent rifle. I got mine in 25cal, I couldn't believe how light it is fills real good shouldering the rifle. Couldn't believe how quiet it is definitely back yard friendly. Trigger is vary lite a little spongy but I will adjust. Love the air tank with regulator, excellent rifle for the money.

Nothing

This is my fifth air gun, I should of bought one awhile back. Excellent all weather gun, vary accurate.

That's so excellent gun for adult size and easy to shoot.

N/A

I wish to have some airgun club in our location

The idea of owning a higher powered pellet gun

Can only shoot 10 rounds? And its a very complicated system for a pellet gun. Plus the pellet magazine blocks your site of aim

It is extremely heavy. I was not very satisfied with the purchase. Gun looks awesome and pictures but when holding it in your hands it’s quite bulky heavy and hard to a.m.

Good balance weight,powerful and precise.The Marauder style magazine works perfect and the barrel band gives the barrel more stability.

A tank with more capacity.Extra magazine.

Of the 3 models of gaunlet for me the .25 is the Best it is true that it has fewer shots than the other two but the power compensates it also it is easy to get another tank of great capacity and increase the shot count.I had a slight problem of air leakage through the o rings of the tank block, replace them with new ones lubricated with pure silicone grease and thats the problem solved.

So far I have had the rifle about 3 weeks and I have put around 400 shot through the gun. It loves the JSB 18.13 Gr pellets. The gun looks great. Shots great. I love this gun. I have already took some starlings and a few crows out with it.

Nothing

I did work the trigger. And I added a picatinny rail to the bottom of the front stock. And I am looking to add a bigger tank to it soon.

I like this .177 air gun. I also have a .25 cal in this model. It has a little heft to it like a real rifle but the balance offsets that and it actually handles pretty well. the regulator was nott set at the advertised pressure,( was only 1050psi.), So I reset it my self with the use of a pressure gauge and shims to 1300. It shoots extremely well and I have only tested it out to 35 yards but it grouped very nicely. (The gun shoots better than I do LOL). I added a barrel stabilizer to it, moved the front swivel to the forearm. Now it is set up the way I like it, and there are no leaks,and it broke in rather quickly so the bolt is smoother now.

The only thing I would change is having a barrel stabilizer with it, and moving the front swivel stud forward. Also making sure the regulator is set to factory specs.

Shoots very well from a bench, and fairly well off hand. Not as unwieldly as it looks.

I like pretty much everything about the air rifle, for the money it is a great value. I am just getting in to pcp Airguns, this seems like great entry level way to get experience.

Good Acurancy. Lot of shoot for fill.

Easy Mode to get more velocity

This is an awesome air rifle get one and if dont like it send to me will gladly take it

Nothing am not an engineer Price is already rocking...

It's accurate and a blast to shoot sooo many shots per fill is a dream
