Well that is cool glad you found my other channel. but I did move a couple years ago so I do not live in the same place anymore. So not sure we would be able to get together and Jam as I do not live anywere close to were I used to live. Hope you enjoy this channel as well I have lots more cool air rifle content coming on this channel ans more cool air rifles as well.

@@BravoBassin I remember you moving. I remember you making the new music room. Speaking of airguns, how do you feel about the Air Venturi Springfield Armory M1A underlever pellet rifle in .177 or .22?

@@BostonWhoFan515 I actually own the the spring field M1A in .22 cal and it is a great solid air rifle and super accurate with open sights out to 30yds. It is on my list of air rifles to do a review of and make some accuracy shooting videos of. I like mine so much I want to buy one more lol. well worth the $199 price tag from pyramyd air in my opinion.

@BravoBassin yeah I have it in .177 but the underlever malfunctioned today. I just got it last week. I was having a ball with it. I gotta get in touch with Pyramyd Air Monday and do a swap. I'm hoping they'll let me swap for the .22. I think .22 is better for that rifle.

@@BostonWhoFan515 well that kinda sucks I hae had mine for years and i ahs been great. I am sure they will let youmswap it out. Stay away from the gamo CFX air rifle though check out my videos on that one and you will understand why.

Thanks for the great comment and for watching the channel. Ya my wife loves her beeman R7 so much she will not shoot any of the other air rifles we own lol! We shoot a lot together but she is not a big fan on being filmed but I do talk her into it every once in awhile lol!

thanks appreciate it and appreciate you watching the channel.

Well I will have to respectfully dis agree with you on the wood stocks over plastic stocks as I have found that wood stocks absorb the shock of the spring or gas ram way better then any plastic stock. and as far as screws backing out I have always had more issues with guns with plastic stocks backing out over and wood stock as well uless it is my weihrauch HW97K that is the only one that I love with a sythetic stocck on it. I will always take a wood stock on a springer over a sythetic stock any day of the week. Now with PCP air rifles I do not care actually prefer sythetic with them. But never with a springer. Not sure how you came to all those very bad kinda crazy conclusions in my opinion but we will have to agree to dis agree. thanks for watching the video as i do appreciate it and the comment.

@@BravoBassin OK, agreed to disagree. Though, if you want to really get deep into the matter, consult the technology experts and I guarantee they will confirm my words. The thing is: plastic (the kind that is used for stocks mostly) is more flexible than breech and/or nutwood/walnut wood, so, when hard-pressed against metal (or any other rigid material) it "follows" the line, so to speak, or, in other words is more "compliant", tends to stick to the metal, to stay "in a position" after being more or less bended by screws (pardon me if I'm too wordy, English is not my native language, thus I try to use different expressions trying to explain same views/ thoughts hoping I will be understood better).

@@DrAgan_tortojed Well first off in my experinece people that call themselves experts in anything are usually not an expert. Second I can only speak from my experience in my oen testing which why I ahv ethe conclusions I do which also comes from shooting air rifles for 44yrs now starting when I was a kid. And I awlays say in my videos I am no expert this is just what I have learned in my experiences and testing and that is all I can do. thanks again for watching the channel.

Well thanks rick for commenting and it was a very hard decision to make but as I am a 100% disabled vet I have been struggling more every year with my debilitating injuries. I did not want to have to leave but one I am not able to get out and fish as much as I need someone to go with me just in case I have some issues hell I am not even able to get out in my kayaks and fish anymore due to my injuries getting worse. And 2 I can"t really afford to keep getting the boxes anymore as I am having to cut cost anywere I can just to keep food on the table these days. Contrary to what people think I do not get a lot of money for being 100% disabled and people seem to think I get all my gear for free which is way not the case as I have paid for everything I have ever used shown or reviewed on my channel. So I wish I could have kept going and making my monthly monsterbass box video as I have always enjoyed getting the boxes and i used to give away baits from the boxes every month as well till it was costing more to mail them then the price of the baits I was sending people in the give aways. Anway I appreciate the fact that you let me be a small part of the monsterbass team I know I was not a big shot like some of the other guys but it was nice to be apart of it as I got in with you guys way back when you first started up. I wish you guys all the best and I will keep sending people your way as I think you do a great job and I am sorry I had to give it up. thanks again for the comment it means a lot to an old veteran like myself.

thanks for watching and the great comment and I am pretty sure it was some youtube bush hippie/ survival dork that decided to do it in a video because he thought it was a good idea and then a bunch of other idiots jumped on that band wagon. I know several Knife makers and my older brother owns a custom forge shop and is a knife maker himself and they will all tell you the same thing. Do not baton wood with a knife even though it might be able to do it does not mean you should. And they all will say you are stupid if you do do it. thanks again for watching the channel.

thanks fo rthe comment and I 100% agree.

thanks for watching and the great comment and sounds like you have a pretty nice collection of air rifles there as well. And All my weihrauch air rifles ahve shot amazing right out of the box as well.

So I appreciate the comment but you should really go watch my last video I made of this gun after this video as there are so many issues with that i would have to write a novel to tell you all of them. On top of the fact that it initally shot well the first couple days see first video I did to see that. Second I should not have to cut anything off the gun to make it shoot well because if that is the case then that is just another reason this gun needs to go back to the drawing board because it is poorly made as I have pointed out in my last and final video I did talking about this rifle.

Ya man fishing for smallies is my favorite kind of fishing to do hands down.

@@BravoBassin I like that you went over Rod and Reel set up and terminal tackle for all us geai heads. Do you do any Fly Fishing?

@@TheCuttingEdge_Channel I have fly fished in the past but honestly I hate it. I would rather have a good spinning rod and few good baits that I catch fish everywhere I go. I have out fished every fly fisherman I have ever been around using a spinng rod and a few good mepps spinners fishing for trout. Even tought a few of them a thing or 2 when they said there was no way I could cast and catch a trout in that small little hole or stream with that set up but I did. I also usually catch much bigger ones as well. lol!

ya the off grind knife is in the daily line up now for sure it is a very great knife just as good as the Jokers in my opinion.

It is a very accurate air rifle and I do have a follow up video coming now that I have owned it for several months now. Also I will be showing how accurate it is with a scope on it as well.

Going to watch it. Thanks for your video's!

@@joostvanpoppel ya it won't be out till late june or july I can't rememeber were it is in my Q for videos but it will be somewhere in there. I would suggest taking a look and some weihrauch air rifles over at the airguns of arizona website as they are my favorite air rifles to own and shoot and once you own and shoot one of them you will not want anything else I promise you. they are the top tier when it comes to air rifles and cost a little more but are well worth it, They are like family airlooms and you will pass them down to your kids and to your grand kids. But just a suggestion.

Thanks for the tip. I will certainly look into it! They have some nice Weihrauch in the shop bear me, here in the Netherlands

@@joostvanpoppel Awsome definitely go check them out for sure I think you will like them.

Lol! like a taco huh? No I have not had that issue with my table but were I set it up and shoot has pretty good shade and I do most of my shooting in the evenings when it is cooler. I have to say that gave me a good laugh though with the whole taco thing. But I also appreciate the question as I will be careful to not have it out in the direct sun light for long periods of time so that does not happen. thanks for watching the channel and for the great comment as well.

@@BravoBassin Yeah, like a 🌮. On hot days if I use “heavy” bags the table will sag. So warped, when it’s folded the legs don’t reach the table to be able to snap into place 🤦🏻‍♂️ I eventually got a Caldwell Stable Table lite, and I’m much happier 👍

@@AGDavid Well that sucks but good to know I have another table that is rock solid but its a lot heavier and does not have as much room to spread all my junk out on it lol! But I will have to look into the Caldwell table as well because I like good gear for sure so thanks for the heads up and the info.

thanks for the great comment I appreciate it and for watching the video. I have another video coming as an update video on how the air rifle is holding up as well as did scope accuracy testing with it as well so it will be coming out soon.

thanks for the great comment and for watching the channel and I could not agree more. I have the HW97K as well and I will be doing some videos on it as well. I actually several Weihrauch air rifle videos on the way as well as the new Air Arms TX200 laminate stock air rifle. So there will be a lot more AIr rifle action coming for sure. And I do have a very cool surprise air rifle I pre ordered not sure when it will get here but it will be a super cool one to do a review of and I am very exited to get it. So ya lots of air rifle action on the way!

Just trying to help the next guy or gal out so they have all the best information available about these radios and some better options in my opinion. what people do with that information is entirely up to them. thanks for watching the channel and for the comment.

So one of the reason I wanted to get this air rifle was exactly that the older ones were said to be really good and I missed out on getting one back then. But this one I can say with all honesty is junk and I would not recommend it to anyone. I talked to several others who have this new one and all are having the same issues as well as a guy smith form over seas who says he has worked on and had to fix so many of these and we are talking the older ones and the newer ones as well. all having the same issues. Turns out from talking to many people they call this a project gun with a lot of the air gunners who like to tinker with air rifles. Many contacted me and told me they buy it take it apart and then re build it an then it is a pretty decent rifle which requires putting a lot more money into it. which turn a $169 air rifle in to a $500 or $600 air rifle and for that money you should just go buy a weihrauch. Anyway thanks for watching the channel and for the comment.

Ya they are really nice knives very well made and I have always been a flat grind blade fan over a scandi. Not that I have anything against a scandi blade just prefer a flat grind more. thanks for watching and the great comment.

yep exactly!

thanks for the tip I will try that next time I shoot this gun. thanks for watching the channel as well appreciate it.

these radios work off cell towers and services if there is no cell service then no these radios will not work at all.

So the fact that you are telling me that the first thing I have to do when buying this gun brand new out of the box is I have to take it apart remove the grease in it replace the valve seals and then re grease it and put it back together before I can even enjoy shooting it is. 1. proves my point that this gun needs to go back to the drawing board because it is a very bad design. 2. stupid as hell that you should have to do that at all before being able to shoot this rifle. 3.No one should have to buy a brand new air rifle and have to take it apart and do all this before they can even shoot it. 4. not everybody is even able to take apart an air rifle and work on it as well. The fact that you and some others even think that this is totally acceptable to have to do when buying a new air rifle just blows my mind. Most people want to buy an air rifle and take it out and shoot it. do some general maintenance and have fun. Not be a freaking air rifle gun smith.

​@@BravoBassin. Благодарю за ответ. Дело в том, что в Восточной Европе для нас это норма. Почти никто не стреляет после покупки. Все знают, что нужно провести подготовку оружия. Я более 15 лет увлекаюсь пневматическим оружием. И всегда при покупке новой винтовки приходилось делать расконсервацию. Внутри все производители кладут густую смазку, которую надо удалять. Иначе получается эффект дизельного двигателя, из-за чего повреждаются уплотнения поршня. Я это видел в винтовках Hatsan, Gamo, BSA, Diana, Norica. Ко мне часто обращались друзья с просьбой починить их винтовки, в которых прогорели уплотнения или сломало пружину. Единственная винтовка, которая досталась мне новой и готовая к стрельбе - Air Arms TX200HC .22cal. Привезли её из Польши новую в упаковке. Вот где я впервые увидел готовый к стрельбе карабин. В Gamo CFX уплотнение затвора чаще всего порвано уже с завода. Это старая проблема этих винтовок. Острые края трубы рвут резиновое колечко при установке затвора.

@@A.Romanov So your telling me that all these companies besides Air arms puts a thick grease in there brand new gun that will actually damage it? How does that even make any sense? Other then cleaning my barrel with a bore snake I have never done anything to any air rifle I have owned and I have been shooting them since I was a kid. I think you fella's over sea's got sold some B.S. years ago that this is what you had to do when you got an air rifle. I mean that literally makes no sense what so ever that you should have to take apart a brand new air rifle and do a bunch of crap to it before you can shoot it. And I will stand by that, did anyone ever ask any of these companies if you should do that? You are not going to tell me that a brand new weihrauch needs to be taken apart and have it re cleans re greased and all the seals replaced because I call major B.S. on that as I own several and have for years never had any dieseling and they all shoot great and are tack drivers. I have to say that just blows my mind that is what you guys do and that is what the norm is.

thanks for watching the video I am going to be working on a follow up video of this air shooting it with a scope on it and talking about how well it is doing after owning it for a few months now. And a few things I have learned that I hope they fix in the gen 2 model. if they make one.

Sat phone are not a bad idea but they can fail as well and you can have issues with getting a signal with them just like a cell phone. Perfect example is lone survivor if you know the story or have seen the movie. Mike murphy was not able to get signal with there sat phone so he had to climb up to a spot that was out on a rock out cropping which exposed him to enemy fire. he was only able to get a signal for about 45 seconds before the signal dropped and he was killed.

@@BravoBassin Damn! Bummer.

@@oregonpatriot1570 Ya so I recommend looking at a few different options when it comes to radios. Me personally I like GMRS but I also have Ham radios and FRS radios as I said in the video so I can cover most of the bases and all 2 of those type radios can communicate with each other as well. thanks for watching and commenting on the video as well I appreciate it.

I've got an inexpensive BaoFeng radio, but haven't taken the time to learn how to use it or get licensed yet.

@@oregonpatriot1570 well if it is the GMRS version the license is easy to get and cost $35 if it is a ham one the there is a test and a $35 fee. But you do not need either to listen and in a SHTF it will not matter if you have one or not lol.

Ah! another one of my adoring fans! Hey dipshit you can always fast forward to the shooting parts dumbass! But it seems you are to dumb to figure that part out considering your stupid comment.

well Ham radios are better for one so good to know you are into those. And no if there is no cell service then these radios will not work. Sorry if the video dragged on but just wanted to make sure I covered everything I new about these radios as fully as I could.

I’m not sure if these radios need cell service.

@@Radar55 they 100% need cell service to work as they are based off the old nextel push to talk set up. they are able to use all the cell service networks but if you are in any dead spots or all the net works are down then these will not work at all. example if you are out hiking in the mountains in wyoming or colorado there are lots of dead spots were none of the net works have service so these radios would not work either. Same as were I live lots of dead spots were no net works have service so they are usless in my area.

right lol! thanks for watching and the comment.

Ya I hope to get out again but we will see I have a lot of knives axes and air rifles to do reviews on and my fishing videos just do not do as well as those others do.

yep I just wanted to make sure people know the truth. thanks again for watching and commenting.

yes it is makes a big difference when shooting at different distances for sure.

awsome! that is a great price for that knife! thanks for watching the channel.

thanks for the comment and yes Purna makes some really great blades for sure in my opinion.

Well I do not know if it is the best one but I do know it will work just fine for taking small game and the fact you can fold it up to a more compact size is definitely a plus for sure. thanks for the comments and watching the video.

@@BravoBassin The only thing close in size (IMPORTANT) is a pistol such as Beeman P1/Crossman 1322 etc. But you go ahead and carry a long, heavy Weirauch or AirArms for survival if you think they are better (for survival purposes) So like I said...Until someone makes a smaller, lighter, faster and more accurate one, this one is the best survival air rifle.

@@scottmerrow7617 well first off not all Weihrauch rifles are heavy the HW30s and HW50s are both very light and very capable. Second I will take a weihrauch air rifle over this black bunker BM8 all day long for a survival rifle hands down. the build quality and accuracy of a weihrauch alone on top of the fact that it will out last this BM8 for decades and generations to come, So I sure will be happy to carry one or an air arms over this bm8 any day. and by the way the BM8 is not a small air rifle it is a full size one and it is only compact when it is folded up but if you are in a survival situation you will most likely always have it folded out and ready to shoot. But what do I know I am just some guy on youtube that makes videos.

@@BravoBassin Of course there are better air rifles available but this one is the best for survival purposes BECAUSE IT FOLDS. Buy two for the price of one Weihrauch. No one said this is the best air rifle period but put a folding stock on a Weihrauch and I'll be the first to buy. YOU just don't get it.

@@scottmerrow7617 Do you even on a black bunker BM8 air rifle? And I do get it you really like this air rifle good for you. But the fact that you think because this air rifle can fold makes it the best survival air rifle out currently lets me know that you really do not know anything about survival let a lone what a good survival air rifle would even be. I am glad you like this air rifle so much and I am sure the company will be glad to sell you as many as you want. and good luck with your survival skills because with that mentality your really going to need it.

Ya the R7 is my wife air rifle and she loves it. She prefers the hawk scope she has on it verses any type of open sites, But she does know how to shoot well with the open sites as well because I told her she had to learn open site shooting first before I would put a scope on her air rifle lol! I really like her R7 as well I have a weihrauch HW30S on the way should be in my hands soon.

@@BravoBassin Sorry for repeating myself, It's a family trait. But try som ping pong balls, they go boom with a good hit. I shoot them off hand at 50ft as head shoot practice for small game hunting. They're often cheap in the dollar store. And cake decorations work fine too as small targets.

@@robertunderdunkterwilliger2290 thanks for the suggestions I will try them out.

Ya the R7 is a great rifle and it is my wifes and she loves it. She will not shoot anything else not that she has not at least tried them but she loves her R7. I do have a weihrauch HW30S that should be here soon looking foward to comparing the two.

No I have not sorry.

glad you liked it thanks for watching the channel.

awsome! I hope you like it as much as I like mine. I think you will. I will recommend that you get a 55lb thrust trolling motor or higher for it you will be much happier that way.

ya you have ot buy the bayonet separately which people thought that was going to come with it. its still a good 30yd or less gun for taking small game in my opinion. But nothing will beat a weihrauch or air arms tx200 in my opinion this was an interesting rifle and cool concept though.

@@BravoBassin Very innovative design. But keeping the gun cocked all the time must be bad for it.

@@BravoBassin This is a good vid on survival airguns, and .22s ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-sBFFWSuVS6I.html

@@robertunderdunkterwilliger2290 I am not sure why you would keep it cocked all the time? I only cock it when I am going to shoot it like every other spring air rifle I have.

@@BravoBassin Oh, I juts thought that was what it did to get into that triangle yoga position!?

well I am pretty darn good with any sight but I do like a good peep sight on a rifle as I have a lot of experience with using them. But I always like having some sort of open sights as a back up to a scope on a rifle. With this air rifle I plan on putting a scope on it and making a video with it. And doing a follow up video on it as there are a few things I want to point out now that I have had it for awhile. Like the rear open sight has started drifting and will not stay in line it slowly moves out as you shoot it. the rifle is still very accurate but there are some definite improvements they need to make with it.

Ya when I first started the channel I did a lot of fishing but I have moved away from that I still fish but I am just not filming much of it anymore I will be doing a lot more air rifle stuff as well as knives and other outdoor type stuff. I will still through a fishing video once in a blue moon probably but not very often anymore. And thanks for the correction on the geography of the animals lol! And if you sub or not does not matter if I have some videos you like then just enjoy them I appreciate you just watching any of the videos. I am not trying to be some super star youtuber I just enjoy making content about the things I enjoy and if people like some of the videos then that is great! so thanks for watching.

@@BravoBassin Cool, subbed. (I stay away from fishing vids, cos I can't afford more hobbies!)

@@robertunderdunkterwilliger2290 Y aback in the day I was sponsored to fish and used to compete in kayak fishing tournaments but did not enjoy fishing the competitions so I gave that up. I still enjoy going fishing but I am more into shooting my air rifles and reviewing knives these days. again thanks for watching and the sub as well. I have a weihrauch hw77k coming out soon.

I love the hawk 4x32 mildot scope for air rifles I have them on a few guns and I also have a few UTG 3x9x40 mildot scopes on a few as well. both work great for me as I like the thicker cross hairs as I can see them better and quicker when lining up shots for critters. The hawk scopes are my favorite by far though.

well usually 20yds 30yds and 40yds I can group them all in a sub 1inch group with this rifle. but some times I have an off day because the gun shoots better then I do for sure. I have an Hw30s on the way should be here in a couple weeks.

@@BravoBassin The HW30s is extremely accurate for what it is. Although, out of the box the trigger is a bit gritty. However with some tuning I'm certain it can be close to Feinwerkbau levels, and it's probably my favorite airgun ever!

@@robertunderdunkterwilliger2290 Ya I really enjoy shooting my wifes Beeman R7 so I decided to get the HW30s in .22 cal as I like the .22 cal pellet the best when it comes to shooting air rifles.

wow! that is a big jump but still worth it in my opinion. thanks for watching the video.

thanks for the comment and ya they are a great boat I love mine and I am still using it well worth the money and a very solid little boat for sure. I have many videos on my channel of me fishing out of it as well on lakes, ponds, and rivers.

well I am glad it helped you as that is why I made the video. IT is a shame that this air rifle turned out to be a dud as I was really excited about it as well hense why i bought it. But it just has way to many issues and in my opinion they need to stop selling it and go back to the drawing board with it. I thing the magnums have been doing well from what I have seen on line in videos. I personally have never had one or shot one so I can't speak on how well they do. But as for the CFX it is a definite no go in my book. thanks for watchign and commenting on the video.

thanks for watching the channel appreciate the comment as well.
