Hi Rick, I got the EBOS from Pyramid Air. I've only been able to take it out once. I used a 88g catridge since PA was out of 12oz bulk cylinders. The EBOS shot kind of sluggishly, but I think that was because it was cold outside. I just got the 12oz bottles, but I have to find the adapters. Anyway, I just want to say that your videos are great and I've learned a lot from the comments. I've been watching a lot more as I am deciding which rifle to get. Thanks again!
Nice reviews, thanks for making them. I have a pretty healthy firearm collection, but some of these air guns are great for fun when a firearm isn't allowed (like my backyard). This particular gun isn't for me, but clicking on a video is a lot easier than spending $100 on a gun to find out for myself. These air guns aren't just for the kids anymore, and I think it's great that they are catering to the adult crowd. Thanks again
Tanks for the kind words.. I do really enjoy my work and I'm glad that it can help folks make good decisions on where to spend their hard earned money.
Thanx for this review!! What would you say the average life span would be on this gun? Im thinking about buying this gun would you recommend the scope or the lazer, since I only wish to purchase one accessory. Thanx!
I'm not sure of the lifespan.. I guess that will all depend on use and maintenance, i.e. using pellgunoil every time. As for accessories, the scope is where I'd start..
I think you've missed the point of these videos.. I review products so that other people can see the good and the bad of them. There is a lot of work that goes into these vids. Each video can take 20 to 30 hours to complete. This is not "play," although I do greatly enjoy my job, this is "work." While you may or may not appreciate what I do, thousands of people respect what I do for their benefit.
@Joshdode92 Dude...whats your damage...i was an Amature bodybuilder in the 90's and early 2000. Now at 47 i have a life.. Rick is a good person you can see that.
why you bust his chops??? He without sin cast the first stone....
Josh are you perfect....perfect hair, perfect body, intelligent. No you insult a good man
@Joshdode92 fucking leave rick alone,based on what u have said,he is way more of a man than u,get a life and stop talking trash on the internet,dont listen 2 him rick,keep up the good job.
Hey Rick I don't think you have to say what you normally say at the beginning because everybody just knows that honesty is standard with your reviews.
Thanks for the tip.. I want to make sure that new people hear it too. My intro is getting a bit tired at this point.. let's see if I can spice it up for 2012.
I'm going by emptying the hopper.. I did not count each shot.. but I started with a full hopper and ran it dry.. at the end.. it was really low on co2..
I saw some videos of the evanix giant shooting full auto aswell . dont think ill be able to afford to shoot lead out at that rate but it must be alota fun when u do.
yeah.. it really shows on this one.. I enjoyed shooting this gun.. it is a lot of fun to shoot something that's meant to just tear stuff up vs having to shoot for accuracy.
hey rick, this has nothing to do with this type on gun but do u think the benjamin trail .22 cal would be better to get than the walther falcon hunter .22 cal? because i heard the trail had a problem where the barrel didnt lock back in the same spot?
The Falcon hunter with the gas ram is a harder hitting gun than the Trail. Some trails have issues with the barrel joint.. but not all of them. The key is to have crosman honor their warranty and fix it every time there's an issue. Eventually they may improve quality control and actually solve the problems.
I've had this gun for a while now and love it. I'm in the market for a longer barrel, but so far haven't found one. You should look around and do a modern review if you find one.
Thanks for the review. I was a little surprised to see the low price tag on this gun. I like the ability to accessorize. Keep up the great reviews : )
HaHa that gun is nuts :) well worth a chuckle good on ya Rick!
