Beeman R9 Elite Series Combo

Beautiful German craftsmanship!!! A stunning rifle that feels as solid and well built as it looks.

Double check your scope mount. Mine came with the "free" 20 for 20, which is cool, but the scope was waaaay unlevel and needed immediate re-torquing. Could have been a shipping issue and by no means a deal breaker (it was free) but you should double check after receipt.

Quality rifle

Scope is junk

Fit and finish are nice but not as nice as several small caliber rifles I own in the same price range. . Scope is very nice. 20 for $20.00 is a great deal. Gun is very very accurate. First three shots were high due to the difference in Pyramids range distance and my own. After first three shots it was easy to dial into BULLSEYE after Bullseye. I love the shape of the stock very comfortable. Gun is quieter than expected. Cocking is easy and smooth with a nice solid lock up. I would buy again. Again very very accurate and that’s what matters most. Pyramid Air is great to do business with I appreciate there experience and knowledge in the industry. Thank you Pyramid Air.

NOTHING

This pellet recommendation for PA shoots great. Link below.

Accurate. Beautiful

Nothing

Fit and finish is excellent. Excellent trigger. Cheap to shoot. Nice scope for the price.It was cheaper with the scope than without. Ordered on Monday and received on Thursday. Pretty accurate. Bought for shooting rats. Does the job. Had a problem with the first scope and they sent me a new one. Definitely recommend PA.

The scope was shimmed and it made a dent in the tube. I ended up putting a droop compensating mount on it to center the adjustments. and a better scope I'll put the scope on another gun.

It takes time to learn how to shoot a springer and to find out what pellet it likes. As others said, it liked H&N Ftt 5.54 best. Tried ftt 5.53, 5.55, Hades, predator, Jumbo exact, crossman hp, baracuda 15 and 18. May try predator GTO next. Most pellets fit loose.

Seems very well made. The blueing is good and wood is great. There is zero plastic. Gun is all metal and wood.

After owning a R7 I expected greater accuracy. The R9 will take squirrels all day but its far from what I got from the R7. The safety cant be placed on after its turned off.

I bought this rifle to play in my small back yard. It might a little much. It sends a .22 pellet though a 3/4 piece a plywood at 25yards. The gun is beautiful and feels like a heirloom piece. The scope thats included does not hold zero and is not that great.

The scope, the finish, the trigger

The weight, its heavy

Weight and feel of a full size center fire rifle. Very accurate with the right pellet. Comes ready to shoot, right out of the box. However, check the scope mounts. Mine worked loose after 100 rounds or so. I re-tightened them and re-zeroed the scope and I can now put three shots on a dime at 27 yrds. Great gun to practice and keep my shooting skills up.

Can't think of a thing.

Good bang for the buck. I thought about getting a PCP rifle, but a $1500 - $2000 financial outlay to get a PCP rifle, scope, compressor and all the other necessities to get started in a pellet gun just didn't seem practical. This one serves my purpose.

Almost everything. It's a beautiful rifle. As soon as I picked it up, I knew it was a quality rifle. The scope that it came with is great. It was on paper right out of the box. I only needed a slight adjustment. It came with a 20 for 20 test. I have many other air rifles, and I have changed out the scopes that they came with the first thing. Except for this one and a Beeman R7. Both have the Rekord trigger. The R9 trigger pull was 1 lb 3 oz. No need for me to adjust it.

My only dislike is with the safety. Once the gun is cocked, and the safety switched off, it cannot be switched back on. The rifle must be fired to make it safe.

I have not tried the open sights. They look really good. The front sight is hooded and comes with 5 or 6 inserts for the front post. I held off on buying either of the Beemans (R7 & R9) because they are a bit more in price than the Gamo Swarm Magnum Gen 2, the Ruger Impact Max Elite, and the Umarex Synergis that I have. My mistake! I would not own any of those other rifles if I had bought the Beemans first. The Beemans are hands down, far superior. Other than the rear sight there's no plastic. As I said, my only regret is not buying it sooner.

Very accurate at close range, will not get a good group at a distance, which is what I purchased it for. Great looking gun
