 Welcome to the Pyramid Insider. I'm Tyler Patner and today we are going to be bringing you my top five picks in every price point for air pistols. We're going to go from $100 to $250, $500 under a thousand and then over a thousand. Let's get into it. Up first today in that sub $100 category is the Diana Chaser pistol. Now this gun's really cool. It's available in 177 or 22 caliber. We have the 22 here and what I really like about this gun is the customization ability that you have with it. You can buy it as a rifle kit as well where it comes with a longer barrel and a buttstock or you can add those things later. We have them on our website so you can buy just the pistol and upgrade it later if you want to. You can remove the rear sight, throw a scope on it. You can take out the single shot tray and put a magazine into it and operate it as a bolt action repeater as opposed to a single shot like you see it here. With one 12 gram CO2 cartridge you're getting pretty good power and you're getting a ton of shots. They're usually very accurate, decent trigger, nice lightweight. Anybody's going to be able to shoot this in a really nice just fit and feel of a gun for under a hundred bucks. Number two on our list in the sub $250 category is going to be a little bit of a surprise to a lot of you but that is the Bara 009. Now this is a 177 caliber full blowback full auto BB pistol. This is kind of built on like a Polymer 80 style frame so you have a lot of nice features built into your grip frame. You have a double undercut here which is going to let you get a really nice purchase on the pistol with both hands. You also have some kind of side grooves there for your thumbs that you can apply extra pressure to the pistol. Kind of modeled after that Glock style that Polymer 80 is known for and you have nice slide serrations here on the front and the back. You have those kind of standard Glock sights and the best feature of this pistol in my opinion is the fun switch. You can flip that to full auto and blow through an entire mag as fast as you want really probably under a second. Nice drop free solid full metal magazine. This gun is an awesome replica and one that you really have to have in your collection if you're a full auto fan. Next up on the list in the sub $500 category the Benjamin Marauder pistol. This is an old standby as far as pre-charge pneumatic pistols go and it's a fantastic gun all around. Nice thing about it in my opinion. Not a fan of it running it as a pistol honestly. You throw the buttstock on it that comes with it and you have a nice little carbine. Not the most powerful gun out there but typically very accurate. This is going to make a great pest control option out to like 30 or 40 yards only available in 22 caliber but overall very solid quality gun. Been on the market for a long time. Great trigger for under 500 bucks. This gun does a lot. It's very lightweight. If you do want to run it as a pistol you certainly can but it is a little bit big in the hand so know that going in. Fully shrouded barrel fills to 3000 psi via a quick disconnect right on the front of the gun so it's very easy to work with and does come with an eight round magazine as well. Bolt action operated. This thing is just a ton of fun. Very accurate like I said before and going to offer you a lot of value at a good price point. Next up on our list in the sub $1000 category is the Air Venturi AV46M. Now this gun is very very similar to the IZH 46M which is basically what it's replacing since we can't get the IZH here in the US anymore. This is made by a company called Alpha Precision. Still Russian made. They make their own barrels. They're fantastic. Gun shoots phenomenally well but you get a lot of the same features that you had on those IZH guns with a much better grip. More ergonomically friendly and obviously that red laminate is very eye catching and looks amazing as well. You do still have the adjustable palm shelf. Fully adjustable rear sight and this gun is a single stroke pneumatic so it's ready to go whenever you want it. All you have to do open up that cocking lever like so. Bring it on back. You'd go ahead and load your pellet at this point. You close your breach there and you go ahead and pull the trigger and I'm going to show you guys here. This trigger has like zero movement to it. Just a pure match trigger. This is a phenomenal value especially for those of you looking to get into 10 meter match pistol shooting or if you just like a quality gun that's nice and easy to shoot the AV46M is definitely a great choice at well under $1000. Last but certainly not least the Krem De La Krem $1000 plus category there can only be one and that is the Ataman AP16. This is a .22 caliber pre-charged pneumatic pistol and as you can see here I've done some customizing of this gun through our custom shop here at Pyramid Air. You can go do the same. This is what I came up with. I like black and gold. What can I say? Got the black pearl grips on there but there are a bunch of different colors you can choose from. A bunch of different grip styles. You can change out just about everything. You can see I've gone with the long the standard length barrel and the compact air cylinder just to kind of give it a nice look here but you can do full standard length, full compact length whatever you want. It's really awesome. Regulated of course we've done a review on this gun in the past. Absolutely phenomenal performance. Side lever action for the cocking here. It's super easy to operate very sleek design and really probably the smallest truly powerful PCP pistol on the market right now offers a ton of value even at its very high price point. It is everything you would expect of a high dollar precision pistol and puts out great power for small game pest control and is accurate out to 50 yards with ease for the most part. The great thing about this gun in addition from an accessory perspective is we actually sell what is called the P2C kit so you can turn this into a little carbine if you want. We even sell a Donnie FL adapter that goes right in the end of the shroud if you do want to make it quiet because that's really the only drawback of this gun is that it does have quite a bark to it but other than that this is personally my favorite pre-charged pneumatic pistol on the market today.
