Anics Skiff A-3000 CO2 Pellet and BB Pistol Review

[3nragedhobo]

does it have a rotary belt magazine... Thats awsome *faints*

[switchingtomac]

@3nragedhobo Yes it does.

[3nragedhobo]

Made in russia! must be powerful

[evo5mad]

buying one of these tomorrow! are they worth it and can you get like laser sights for it ? thanks alot!

[switchingtomac]

@evo5mad They are a very unique air pistol, I like mine! Yes you can put a laser on the front rail mount.

[evo5mad]

@switchingtomac thanks for the advise, i bought one today, and the trigger is a little weird seems heavy, anyway i was wondering how do you change the modes, like double and single? thanks alot man keep up the awsome channel!

[switchingtomac]

@evo5mad Just pull back the hammer for single action.

[Barbossapasa]

your channel is excellent. Huge variety of guns reviewed. Thanks

[switchingtomac]

@Barbossapasa You're very welcome - more two come...

[1942nuclear]

RWS Super mag wadcutters would be good for that gun, or RWS hobby pellets for speed.

[1942nuclear]

cool its got a walther design mag release, also it got a touch of H&K, because of nice hammer in the back, and general shape of the gun, single and double action.

[Nismogtir1]

i had on of these, i loosened the magazine screw a quarter to half turn and it significant reduced the feeding issue. i had no prob with the FPS. def a solid gun and would own it again. not many you get these days that can hold 28 shots of lead pellets. another great video man=)

[switchingtomac]

@Nismogtir1 Thanks for the feedback!

[cyberwolf661]

hey could you tell me if you are ever going to be able to get more of these in stock

[elvensbane]

Very nice rear sight. Reminds me of a compact version of my gamo's sights.

[ED2585]

what is the magazine called?

[switchingtomac]

@ED2585 I'd just call it a magazine ;)

[ED2585]

@switchingtomac haha oh,just wondering cuz its such a unique mag

[Funjackerjones]

Oh dear =P you know something going to go wrong when it gives you a rod to remove any stuck bb's =) Looks nice though

[Nismogtir1]

@Funjackerjones prob cos they care about their customers enough to give them a tool that will actually fit in rather than customer ramming a coat hanger wire. never had a single jam myself with any of the baikal products. great gun.

[RUNZLIG811]

You know, I bought this gun a few years back and I just had the bar set to high I think.. For me it was like a Pretty woman with nothing up stairs.LOL It just wasn't a performer. Low FPS, a T-Rex of a trigger,and a chronic jammer. It's solid, It looks the part, but sooo many quirks. Maybe I got a bad one? Just sayin...........Oh, I enjoy your Airgun vids. Your a credit to the Airgun community.. RUNZLIG811

[switchingtomac]

@RUNZLIG811 Thanks for the kind words. Mine does not seem to be as picky as some but I have heard similar comments about the SKIFF so there must be some truest in it!

[qb78d]

thats some good shooting :)



[switchingtomac]

@qb78d Thanks!

[dvarblo]

i have this gun and i still cant believe u shot it that fast and on target...is this skiff a newer version?

[switchingtomac]

@dvarblo If anything it is an older model.

[as852220]

Hey buddy! Have some possibility to have this gun to sale again?

[switchingtomac]

@as852220 No, I don't think I will be carrying it any more.

[troubleboy]

I wonder how rifled barrel and steel BBs can be combined. Wouldn't they just grind the rifling til it's smooth?

[switchingtomac]

@troubleboy They don't seem to but maybe after thousands of shots it can effect the rifling?

[akamo121]

did he say 1.99

[switchingtomac]

@akamo121 Move the decimal point a bit and you got it $199 :)

[TheStudioSEB]

Why would anybody want an airsoft, when you can buy this?

[switchingtomac]

@TheStudioSEB This one is not so good to shoot at your friends with ;)

[TheAirsoftShot]

Hi! I've watched many of your reviews. And i need to know.

Which pistol is the absolute best 6mm BB shooter you have tried? Which is the best one?

[switchingtomac]

@TheAirsoftShot I have not reviewed any 6mm Airsoft guns.

[TheAirsoftShot]

@switchingtomac I know but I mean which one is the best one? Haven't you ever tried airsoft?

[switchingtomac]

@TheAirsoftShot Not really, never really been that interested in Airsoft guns.

[TheAirsoftShot]

@switchingtomac Wow ;o.. k then :)

[switchingtomac]

@TheAirsoftShot In Canada we are very limited in what we can get in Airsoft, way more airguns available to us because of our gun laws.

[TheAirsoftShot]

@switchingtomac Heard of it yeah ;o.. forgot u were from Canada ;)

[Ofanziva0099]

This gun looks really nice :O

[switchingtomac]

@Ofanziva0099 It is one of the nicer ones!

[thegod098]

ARE YOU RICH????

[switchingtomac]

@thegod098 That depends on who you compare me to? I still have a Mortgage and BIlls to pay but I have a good life and great family which make me rich in my mind.

[thegod098]

@switchingtomac well i mean you have all of these gus that all average $150 dollars there for YOU ARE RICH

[switchingtomac]

@thegod098 I guess if I sold them all, I could then take all the money and apply that to my mortgage and reduce the monthly payments by say $50, I'll keep my guns ;)

[thegod098]

@switchingtomac um whats your next mile stone and sorry for being a little annoying

[switchingtomac]

@thegod098 Not sure yet? Maybe 5000 subscribers?

[jkherberger]

Will you be reviewing the Skif with BBs?

[switchingtomac]

@jkherberger Probably not, too many other guns to review, maybe if I run out of stuff to do...

[jkherberger]

Love your vidz! I'm looking for an accurate powerful bb Repeater, what would you recommend for me? I own some very nice pellet guns. RWS 350 magnum 22, RWS/Hammerli 850, Webley Alecto, Desert Eagle Co2 and the Beeman P1. I would prefer rifled that shoots steel or lead bbs. Thanks!

[switchingtomac]

@jkherberger This one is pretty much what you are looking for, I also have the EKOL ES 55 in BB with a rifled barrel but I am out of stock right now.

[TheCtenoMan007]

Very cool store. Just need some money so I can buy them all :D

[switchingtomac]

@TheCtenoMan007 That's the spirit :)

[herpo14292]

For the UK market these are dire. Check out my videos to see my old one in action. i had to strip two to fix them after the valves went, and the c02 leaks alot. Don't know about over the pond though!

[elvensbane]

This guns amazing, i'm considering getting this as a side arm for my gamo, it's hard to find GOOD pistols but this looks amazing, for the price and with the sights man this looks nice..

[deathdragon6660]

do you know a wed site where you can find bb gun law for Colorado cus when i search goggle it pop up wed sites but there not very useful 

[switchingtomac]

@deathdragon6660 Sorry, not sure?

[nickfred74]

@airsoftnonamer The orange tip is for sales in the states

[switchingtomac]

@nickfred74 Yes, these guns may have originally been destined for the US market.

[mrmactknife]

Nice video, and nice shooting too. Keep up the good work.

[switchingtomac]

@mrmactknife Thanks :)

[MarksmanLeBlanc]

Hmmm... I like the gun in all, but I like blowback. To buy something for a near 200 dollars and not get blowback, I would be unsatisfied. I really prefer realism more than accuracy...

[vovavoyevodin]

how ar you think wich gun its replica of? i see some p99 lines with some thing frome the h&k usp (safty and mag reliss) frome p99 treeger gard

[switchingtomac]

@vovavoyevodin There is definitely a mix of guns in this one!

[dayday831]

Gun performed very well, hate that Orange piece though. In California, they are trying to pass SB 798 to make all replica guns painted Orange, or clear plastic. What a waste of taxpayer $.

[switchingtomac]

@dayday831 It is ridiculous to say the least. Cops will be like... hey don't worry he's holding a toy gun because it's orange and then the criminal will point his freshly painted real gun at the cop and shoot him in the face. Now cops have even more to worry about if this law is passed. If they shoot someone with an Orange gun and it is a toy they will also be in a no win situation. I feel bad for the Californians on this one!

[billymayer1000]

stronger pffft. the gun looks very weird, but nice video, like always

[gunmaiak]

Nice grouping

[switchingtomac]

@gunmaiak I thought so too :)

[HatesStupidPeople194]

Great video as always mike i really like that gun, btw what do you use as a backstop??

[switchingtomac]

@HatesStupidPeople194 It is a "Champion .22 Caliber Bullet Trap".

[HatesStupidPeople194]

@switchingtomac do u sell it in ur store dude ill buy it right now if so

[switchingtomac]

@HatesStupidPeople194 Yes it is for sale in teh Replica Airguns Store:

replicaairguns(dot)com/buy-air­-blank-guns/

[eagle62427]

look's like a glock

[switchingtomac]

@eagle62427 A bit.

[tekmatik2009]

Do you think it would be good for pest control?

[switchingtomac]

@tekmatik2009 Maybe really small pests, it does have pretty good accuracy and velocity for an air pistol.

[fernandocamors]

you can see in the shoting test that the ejection port moves along with the barrel

Keep up awesome videos!

As always, greetings from Argentina and andexcuse me if my english isn't good!

ps: I realy don't like the orange parts in any kind of gun, Airguns, airsoft guns or even toy guns

but there is nothing to do with laws!

[switchingtomac]

@fernandocamors Yes the barrel moves when you shoot it, kind of cool!

[TDF090779]

I just got mine in the mail this morning,I just don't understand the orange tip,correct me if I'm wrong,But I thought in Canada the only guns you needed that on was airsoft soft air guns?

[switchingtomac]

@TDF090779 Just the way they came into the country this time, routed from the US no doubt. I am going to try painting mine at some point :)

[drac00n]

Great video!, i dont know why, but it really reminded me to the Walther P99, haha

Also, this vacation, [ in belgium ] imma buy an Remington 700P, [ or either an 1911 blank fire, or Desert Eagle blank fire, ] so.. are those good things?

or do you have anything else to recommend?

[switchingtomac]

@drac00n I am not familiar with the guns you mentioned? We can't get either of those blank firing guns in Canada :(

[drac00n]

@switchingtomac the 700P is the ''Remington R700 Police'' but thats probally the rifle im gonna buy,

either that one,

or the Swiss Arms SA1G Black painted,

[ Maybe later on an bipod also, but an scope isnt needed yet.. ]

[Xxoo0o0o0ooxX]

Added as favorite loves your videos :-)

[ansibomber]

The orange tip is a US BATFE mandated thing. These guns were originally imported by a US company(EAA corp) IIRC.

I've had one of these guns in the past and I can attest to the atrocious trigger pull. However, when benchrested, it's stupidly accurate for a repeater...

[switchingtomac]

@ansibomber Thanks for the info!

[Xxoo0o0o0ooxX]

I dont know why everyone says that the Skiff cant hit the broad side of a barn. I have no problems shooting inside of a quarter at 10 yards. I dont like the safety it dont work when the pistol is cocked. The pistol with smooth out with time. Almost all of the internal parts are made of polymer but never had anything break. Good gun I payed $100 for mine about 7 years ago.

[switchingtomac]

@Xxoo0o0o0ooxX I thought it was pretty accurate too!

[vovavoyevodin]

luks like it is in my local stor i seen it in theirs web site, but i didn't asked to luk on it in a stor, yes Russia is niere to me but prise on bikal makarov ar simular as you have, i personaly seen it in russian store for about half of the prise

[switchingtomac]

@vovavoyevodin They will be much Cheaper in Russia as they come from there.

[airsoftnonamer]

Red Barrel? Just wondering about Canada Laws, airsoft guns are legal if they are clear correct? But bb gun that fire .177 and .22 are legal in black? Is it legal to sell airsoft gun because you would be a lot of buyers in Canada if you sold also airsoft gun. -Airsoftnonamer

[switchingtomac]

@airsoftnonamer Most Airsoft under about 420 fps have to have clear receivers, Airguns (Pellet and metal BB) can be all black and do not need red markings. This one just has it.

[airsoftnonamer]

@switchingtomac Thanks for answering my questions! I love you videos. Just one last question, what camera do you use to mostly record with?

[switchingtomac]

@airsoftnonamer I use a Canon T21 for my Table top stuff and static photos, A Drift HD170 for my point of view stuff, I was using a Casio EX-FC100 for my slow-mo stuff but now I have a Casio TRYX that I am using for some slow-mo and also some more 1080p shot that I need a larger field of view then my T2i gives me.

[barrettrifles]

that camera is really cool, hope to see it in your new videos as well

[JUNAID187]

whats with the red plastic lol

[switchingtomac]

@JUNAID187 Not sure why but this is the only way I can get these ones, nothing that a little Krylon spray paint wont fix...

[JUNAID187]

@switchingtomac

No I mean is it like a legal requirement or something ?

[switchingtomac]

@JUNAID187 Not in Canada.

[billymayer1000]

@JUNAID187 probably not, its under 500 fps
