Head to Head: Umarex Gauntlet vs Gamo Urban
Entry level PCPs have reached new levels of quality and features that just a few years ago would have been unthinkable. The Gamo Urban and the Umarex Gauntlet embody the best of this trend. These guns have a lot of similarities and some big differences so let’s put them in the ring and see which […]
Head to Head: Octane Elite vs Benjamin Trail
With it being the heyday of the PCP rifle, sometimes it’s easy for us as airgunners to forget our roots. For many of us this hobby started off simply, with a basic multi-pump or break barrel rifle, most likely purchased from a big box store. These “big-box” rifles often come packaged in boxes plastered with […]
Head to Head: Kral Puncher Breaker Silent vs Hatsan BullBoss
It’s not every day that we get to do a head to head between two guns from the same country of origin, it’s almost like a mini National Championship! Fitting with it being March Madness and all, so let’s jump in the ring and meet our two competitors. In the red corner is our reigning […]
Head to Head: AirForce Texan .357 vs Ataman M2R Tact Carbine .357
I have to admit, as much as we try to go into writing every head to head match up with an unbiased opinion, this one was a little tough. Most of you by now realize that I am a lover of all things big bore air rifle. Coming from a mainly firearms background they really […]
Head to Head: Ataman M2R Bullpup vs FX Bobcat MKII
Bullpups have been all the rage in the airgun world for the last few years and really, what’s not to love? Bullpups are compact, quick handling, easy to manage both in the field and on the range, and the same level of accuracy as a full-length sporter stock rifle. It’s easy to see why a […]
Head to Head: Benjamin Bulldog vs Hatsan Hercules
The .357 caliber is a key contributor to the big bore class of airguns. Heavy enough to pack a punch but light enough to fly flat. Surprisingly there still aren’t a lot of airguns that use this caliber of barrel, but we suspect that will change quickly in the coming years. With that said let’s […]
Head to Head: Crosman Challenger vs. AirForce Edge
When it comes to our Head to Head comparisons we usually have some hands on experience with the guns we choose beforehand that helps us when pitting the two guns against each other. But for this Head to Head things are a little different. With the Olympics in full swing, competition air rifles have been […]
Head to Head: Smith & Wesson M&P 40 Blowback vs. ISSC M-22
Today we are matching up two CO2 blowback pistols that are fairly new to the market and that are designed with training in mind. These guns give you the look and feel of their powder burning counterparts, but is one inherently better than the other? Let’s throw them in the ring and find out! In […]
Head to Head: Beretta CX4 Storm vs. Sig Sauer MCX
Semi-auto CO2 plinkers are some of our favorite airguns. Always ready for some quick plinking indoors or out, plus the fast action and close resemblance to their powder burner counterparts make them a great way to keep skills sharp at fraction of the price of going to the range. But what difference is there, if […]
