Walther Parrus, Synthetic

Rifle is HEAVY, as I received I returned also is too wide on the fore stock end.
Customer Service from Airgun Depot is top notch.

Pros
Quality out of the box is top notch.

Cons
HEAVY, not suitable/comfortable for hunting and walking around, may be ideal for bench shooting. The 3 starts is for being so heavy.

My first three shots at 10m on the .22 spinner we use as a field target.

Pros
Automatic fun for a casual plinker getting my two young sons into target shooting.

Cons
Decibels, especially with lighter pellets; charging weight/pressure is significant.

Pros
Normally don’t do reviews but this thing is amazing. Sights are so easy to adjust and very easy to see. Made in Germany and High Quality.

Cons
A little heavy, but I wouldn’t want it any lighter because of the force it takes to cock.

This is a well made rifle that is a bit on the heavy side but seems to work well. It is a natural aimer and the sights work well. Would like them to have the optic dots on all 3 surfaces and not just the rear sites. But iron sights are very adequate and usable. I did have a hard time mounting a scope. Needed an adapter as this uses a 10mm dovetail mount. (not an issue) The issue was difficulty with getting the scope to line up with the point of aim. Had to shim the rings to get it on the paper. Overall this is a well made and powerful shooter. 177 pellet was punching through the plywood backstop we had the target on. Still playing with pellets of different weight but it seems to like the light to mid weight pellets best for accuracy. Not an overly loud gun but not quiet either. Would not recommend as a good one to plink in the backyard in a city neighborhood with nervous neighbors. A little to much gun for that. Good hunter but not a toy.

Pros
Well made powerful shooter. I believe it will be a long term go to gun.

Cons
The only thing I would consider a con is the scope mount that I think could be a better setup

I have shot this gun for a week or so and I continue to have great success hitting the target. It is easy to sight in and balance. The action is smooth and cocking it is pretty easy. I can shoot it for a while without getting tired. Inspite of its weight, I am able to hold it steady when taking a shot. The trigger is very good. It does not require much force to pull it. I have not been tempted to try an adjustment since it came out of the box. Ins[ite of the weight, it does give you a bit of a jolt when it goes off. It probably has more kick than any gun I have. It is also the loudest of all the guns I have. I am really amazed that with all that kick and noise, I am extremely successful in hitting the target time after time. I am extremely happy with this purchase.

Pros
Very accurate, has a great trigger. Solid build with a very smooth cocking action. Through glow site on the front.

Cons
A bit loud. Only front site is through glow.
