 All right Tyler, we need a new host for pyramid air videos. Okay, they all want just not working out and I'm thinking You seriously. Yeah. Wow. You're for the Jenin. You look good. I'll take your word for it. Thank you. Wow Okay, what guns Let's do That's a multi pump. Yeah, I will not do a multi. I won't do a multi. I don't care I won't do a multi pump. These arms are not built for pump it. No It's my one condition. Take it or leave it. You let me know. Oh, nope. I'm out. So How about Daisy at 80? That's a multi pump now. Yeah Sorry, yeah Great news dragonfly the multi pump. Yeah Get out of here. Don't I told you not to come at me with that crap Tyler Yeah, Val great idea Dragonfly mark to Multi pump. Yeah, what's different? It's easy to pump Why? You'll see The dragonfly mark to comes to us in air venturi Seneca line This guy was announced at the 2022 shot show although we saw something called the butterfly that looks really similar a Couple of years prior that never hit the market So this is the kind of rebranded and finished version of that gun that was announced all those years ago Some nice cool enhancements some patented technologies as well built into this gun And personally I said I'd never review a multi pump gun just because I don't want to pump it a million times But this thing is actually really intriguing and I'm glad we're gonna take a look at it today Let's dive in starting at the front of the gun We do have a threaded muzzle on this gun one of the few multi pumps that does you thread off the smooth part here This is actually a two-piece adapter, but this is gonna reveal half inch by UNF threads 1 1⁄2 20 for your moderators suppressors What have you you can actually thread the knurled end off as well, although you don't need to for anything So that's a cool little feature that doesn't get added into multi pumps a lot now Moving back from that threaded muzzle. We do have a red fiber optic front sight and a fully adjustable rear sight One thing to note about that rear sight. It is removable. You can see I've got a little bit of clearance there with my scope But for those of you that are mounting a different scope This is a three to nine by 32 leapers But if you were to go with something with a 40 millimeter objective you are gonna have to remove that It's one screw and then you knock it off It's super easy and obviously goes back into place just as easily now our scope is mounted onto an 11 millimeter dove tail that's built into the breach here and Dropping down you do have a bolt action system now in the gun currently we have the single shot tray which comes with it But it also includes a magazine now this gun's available in 1 7 7 and 22 in 22. We have a seven round mag It's a nine round mag in 1 7 7 and that loads real nice and simple into the breach very easy system to use Loading the magazines of breeze as well. You do have a safety that is a push button style safety So that's safe. That's hot. You can see the little red ring right there Oh, you can de-cock the gun as well just by putting it on fire holding that bolt back pulling the trigger You hear it release and you're good and safe now The trigger is non-adjustable, but I can tell you it has a nice two-stage feel to it Nice take up comes to a solid wall and releases. It is a little on the heavy side But not bad certainly usable as a pest control rig hunting gun What have you the stock overall nice hardwood stock here? It does have a raised cheek piece on that right left-hand side of the stock for right-handed shooters I think a lefty is gonna have no problem with this as well, but it is not a raised cheek piece on that side You do have a rubber butt pad at the back and then working our way forward to the heart of the gun here is The patented butterfly high efficiency pump system. So you look at everything that's going on there You've probably never seen something like this on a multi pump gun before let me explain to you What's going on here now? This is a patented pump system invented by a guy by the name of Bob Moss a very interesting system That was originally developed for the Benjamin 392 397 line of rifles that never really made it into production There were a handful of guns out there, but basically Airventury got their hands on this patent working with Bob to integrate it into the dragonfly model the dragonfly the original was a Notoriously hard pumping rifle it was rated up to eight pumps and was by the eighth pump 35 or 40 pounds of effort to close That pump arm this reduces that pumping effort to around 15 pounds across the board It does not get any harder as you pump, which is very atypical for a multi pump rifle This is the only time I've ever seen something like this It's super interesting and because it is so easy to pump you can pump it to eight pumps with a breeze But it is rated all the way up to 15 pumps and they're getting a max velocity of around 730 feet per second in that 22 caliber. It's higher in 177 But this pump system really makes this gun different than everything else that's on the market and a real pleasure to use I obviously in our pre-testing. I've been pumping the hell out of this thing and it's worked flawlessly No issues and other than personal fatigue as I pump it a million times It's super easy to operate and really an impressive system now Just to demonstrate this for you while we're here before we head out to the range You do have to cock the gun to go ahead and start pumping it for it to build pressure If you don't cock the gun it will actually just vent out so something to keep in mind there But with the gun on safe with the action cocked There's nothing to this guys really simple and it's the same Every time you can just keep going And going And going Redundant enough for you So this is a very simple system nice smooth and pretty elegant in my opinion Obviously the fit of that stock where these pieces come together is really seamless Very nice finished quality on this for a $200 gun for those of you that remember the original dragonfly in my opinion This is a massive upgrade not just in the ease of use and efficiency, but also in the look it just has a nicer look to it I love the fact that they've got the half inch UNF threads there on the end, but let's get to the important stuff Let's head out to the range test it for accuracy See what it'll do over the chronograph get some sound levels for you and then we'll come back and wrap it up Quick pro tip for you guys as I'm shooting this here and realizing kind of the best way to operate it from a pumping perspective You know the normal thought is that you're going like that That clack right there while not super loud compared to other multi pumps You do have control over it as you're coming in you can go nice and slow But here's the real nice key thing instead of having to close it all of the way You can actually come back down just to here and that is a full pump You don't want to shoot it like this, but when you're pumping Coming back just to here is going to save you some time and it's going to be a little bit quieter for those of you in the woods Now I'm going to show you all these pumps because this is going to take a minute and I'm going to need to take off my jacket So before we get to our 45 yard accuracy results Just so you guys know did about ten different pellets out at 45 yards because those were shooting really well at 25 yards Where I did all of my pre-testing. We also only pumped the gun eight times I did that because the previous version of the dragonfly was a max of eight pumps and quite frankly if it performs at eight pumps It's probably going to perform at 15 pumps or 10 pumps wherever you decide to pump it up to max as well So taking a look at our results at an inch and a half group You have the JSP 18-1 threes four out of five there in about a three-quarter inch group, which is not too bad again Your mileage may vary moving on to the H&M barracudas Which are going to give us the most power right about 17 foot-pounds an inch and three eighths five shot group out there and Then moving on down the H&M and 18 grains those new barracuda 18s an inch and a quarter for all five again Not too bad, but by far the absolute best Crossman premiere 14.3 domes a half-inch group five shots at 45 yards This is absolutely stellar was not one of the best pellets at that 25-yard distance So it was good, but not great and pretty much stayed the same from 25 out to 45 Which is super impressive. So those crossmen premieres a definite winner in the dragonfly and quite frankly I'm a little surprised that we're getting this good of accuracy out of it at 45 yards wasn't expecting that But certainly very happily surprised with the dragonfly Looking over our chronograph numbers We decided to chronograph all four pellets that we used in our accuracy testing and test them at five eight ten and Fifteen pumps respectively now what strikes me is that you're getting good energy at five pumps If you want to do short-range pest work just under 12 foot-pounds and with just three extra pumps going up to eight We do see a pretty big increase in velocity and energy there Which is going to be great You don't have to go all the way up to 15 if you don't want to and what you'll notice and what strikes me is that the jump Between five and eight pumps is more Significant in terms of the amount of velocity gained than the jump between 10 and 15 now don't get me wrong It's great to have 17 foot-pounds of energy at your fingertips But 10 is still getting you 15 and a half. There's nothing wrong with that either So for me what I'm questioning is the actual necessity to go to 15 Do you have to probably not but if you want that energy you can certainly go there and it's still easy to do thanks to that butterfly system All right, let's wrap up the dragonfly mark 2 if you compare this gun to the original dragonfly This is a massive upgrade of some big improvements built into this Obviously the big one being this high efficiency pump system the butterfly pump system is awesome I got to say if I had to pump a regular multi pump 600 times or so, which is what we did for the accuracy testing portion of this that would have been brutal But with this it was relatively easy a little bit of arm fatigue But overall not too bad a lot of nice features outside of that built into this gun as well Obviously you have a repeater capability with a bolt action system and you have a threaded muzzle Which is a huge upgrade something we should see on more air guns in my opinion But obviously that butterfly pump system is the key point of this gun The fact that it's taken this long for somebody to build this into a multi pump is really quite astonishing Honestly since it's been out there a while, but glad to see it's finally getting done really makes this kind of dream to use for youth shooters If you aren't the strongest person in the world But you still want to multi pump something that's self-contained gonna give you a decent power up to 17 foot pounds here in 22 This is a real winner in my opinion and obviously half inch accuracy at 45 yards Definitely has the goods and performs well at range too for the insider.
