Swiss Arms TG-1 Air Rifle, Tan

I bought this for kicks and the price for a Swiss Arms rifle is so low I got it. It sat for 8 months as I didn't have a chance to tune it, it is accurate. The price is unbeatable. When it first went off, I could tell from the vapor trail that I never tuned it or sited it. Quarter size range (1 inch) with alloy pellets.

The rifle had loose screws and joints which were easy to remedy. The scope is mid-level, which could be better. Loud! Nothing absorbs the shock and there is a noticeable kick. The trigger is way off the sweet spot. Those two things are my guess at the reviews claiming low accuracy...(maybe?). My experience was, this barrel and this combination of shoulder rest is awesome and dead-on accurate)... I was surprised at the power and noise this gun released the first time. That has gone down somewhat over time....or I'm imagining it has.

The unique look of this gun makes it toy-like. I don't mind that, it's different, sometimes I get concerned the neighbors think I'm discharging a firearm when it gets above average in loudness.

The coyote tan color is about all

the stock is not worth a dang every time we shoot it is all over the page no good

Do not waste your money on this gun

This rifle is accurate out of the box! Don't know how the scope is that comes with it because I put one on that I had ordered weeks b4. Put the scope on and set up a target and started shooting. The first shot was a little right. 6 click to the left I was at bulls eye. My Benjamin Titan .22 took 500 shots to get this accuracy. This rifle is powerful,accurate, and well balanced. People with bad reviews needs to learn how to shoot a springger or a NP. It shoots accurate with Crosman Premier hollow point 7.9 grain. Hitting quarter size targets at 20 yards. Did a penetration test with the Benjamin Titan .22 and the TG-1 at 30 yards and both equal in damage to a 55 gal drum. For you preppers this would be a good collection to your arsenal. Silent hunt small game without giving up you location. Has open sights that work well in case scope gives out. 5 STARS FOR THIS ONE.....

Nothing

Learn to shoot a springger or gas ram gun.Test out different holds and pellets. Main thing is to have patient when learning a gun and at the end it will be rewarding.

Just received tan TG-1. The velocity is as claimed w/PBA pellets! So stepping up to heavier pellets gives more power down range. Trigger pull is crisp. The scope is clear. Pyramyd shipping is reasonable and supprisingly quick.The stock is comfortable and as it looks very adjustable. So far the TG-1 will group w/any pellets that have been put through it. We have used six different brands and weights. Including some 35 year old original Beeman silverjet and ramjet. I'been doing this for a while! The accuracy with these pellets is very good. Now...

The cocking force(no one @ Pyramyd knew) is around 40+lbs. it has gotten slightly better after 500 shots. It required tightening all the stock screws.The stock screw on the right side of the forend has the head nearly stripped out.This is the one the carps me. The scope rings are cocked The supplied scope rings are so mismatced cockeyed so much that the supplied scope points down and to the right. Having spent some time jiggering it around and found it hopeless. Good luck getting anyone at Swiss Arms answer the Phone or get back to you. In looking at other sites this is common. Broken mainsprings barrel not locking are common complaints. WAIT this just in someone picked up though they don't know if they can ship another set of rings! will try to keep everyone informed. Have sometime before sending this item back for exchange.

The reasonable price surrenders to lack of customer support. The open sights are at best adequate(plastic) the fiber optic don't light up except in bright sunlight. There are better choices.
