Norica Omnia ZRS Air Rifle

As far as looks go it’s not that impressive, it looks kinda funky, and some people think it cost way too much. Which would be true if this were a regular break barrel gas piston pellet gun, but there is nothing regular about this rifle. The whole action moves inside a housing so when you shoot there is no kick, but if you have checked the internet, you already know that. But what the internet has not been saying is how much fun this thing is to shoot! It is so easy to use, if you can shoot a .22 rim-fire you can shoot this, and it shoots well from what I have seen so far. Maybe not as well as a PCP, but for a break barrel, not bad. For me H&N Excite pointed pellets seem to work the best. The pellets do drop a bit from 30 to 50 yds, and I don’t think I would shoot past that as this rifle does not have the power of some other break barrel guns. But for blasting dandelions in the backyard, it’s perfect.

Like the rifle, but the stock really needs some love. The back portion feels good up to my shoulder and with the cheek pad removed I can comfortably see the sights, but the pistol grip needs help! The way it is made it’s hard for me to get my finger where I want it on the trigger because of this "thing" sticking out of the side of the grip. It’s just not a good fit for my hand. A simpler grip would have been better in this instance I believe. But I am getting used to it and it’s not bad. Maybe later after the warranty runs out, I can file it down and make the grip a more custom fit. Also, in front of the trigger guard, I don’t know what the cross groves are supposed to be for, but I think smooth would have been better for cocking and handling.

With this being the first rifle of its kind I’m not sure how long it will last before there are problems with it, but for now I’m Lovin it. As for the price, when I think of everything that has gone into making this rifle, so far, I feel like I got a great deal. It’s just fun to shoot!

The lack of recoil makes it very easy to shoot with no need for specialized holds like a conventional spring/nitro piston gun. Power level seems adequate for a non magnum .177 rifle.

The rifle I received will not shoot decent groups despite trying multiple pellets from multiple manufacturers in different weights, even after two thorough cleanings and at least a thousand pellets put through the gun. I believe this is because of the recoil absorbing system resulting in a barrel that is very loose in my gun, which you can easily wobble left and right and up and down even when locked in the firing position. Unlike a system similar to the Diana 54, the scope is mounted to a portion of the rifle that does not move with the barrel, so any movement in the barrel results in pretty pitiful accuracy. The materials and craftsmanship of this rifle are also not that of a $400 rifle, so you are really paying a premium for a rifle with no recoil, but the lack of recoil does not make up for the lack of accuracy. Additionally, I find this stock and grip very uncomfortable.

I do not advise purchasing this rifle at this price. Maybe mine is a dud, but the accuracy, barrel wobble, and overall lack of quality control in this gun are unacceptable at this price in my opinion.

recoilless, trigger, grip, adjustable check piece, safety location

Very long to break barrel to engage. Would be great if thy yea offered rifle with LW barrel.

Shoots AA 8.4 pellets around 900 ft/sec. It has been shooting same hole at 30 yards but it will throw 1 out of 5 pellets somewhere. Hopefully accuracy keeps getting better as it gets broke in. I didn’t expect a bunch out of something like this or compared to my tx200, but I really enjoy it. It is recoilless and trigger in my opinion is good and I haven’t messed with it. Would be great for plinking, hunting or maybe a beginner field target rifle. It is something different and a keeper!
