Very cool technology. From what I've read, the ZRS tech can be (or could be) incoroporated into pretty much any springer design. For example, I believe the inventor has built one with the TX200 guts, and I also remember reading that it was initially going to be co-branded with the Cometa Fenix 400 springer, but the contract ended up with Norica in the end. The Spanish forums have some cool reading for those of you who enjoy geeking out on air gun info, reviews, and other people's experiences, etc. It's cool to see Rick so excited, and now I'm very intrigued about the ZRS...well done to the people responsible for bringing it to the market. Thank you Rick, your videos are always great.

Break-barrel airgun are in a league of their own. That stock is other worldly

I just got one of these in .177, and have no doubt it has ZERO recoil. It's is kind of amazing how it feels to shoot. But I have some tips to make this gun even better. First, in my gun, it is pellet picky - and I mean very picky. It didn't seem to like light weight pellets. The accuracy was very bad - so bad I initially thought about returning the gun. At 50 yards I'm talking about 6 inch groups. But with the heavier Air Arms Diablo Field Heavy pellets (10.34 grains) the groups came down to about one inch. The other thing is the gun started to come loose as I shot it, and the sliding mechanism inside the barrel needed adjustment. Turns out Norica made this very easy to do - 4 bigger allen screws on the lower half of the stock, and two small 2.5 mm allen screws that engage the ZRS system at the front. Then there is a thin steel pin just forward of the trigger assembly that needs to be driven out, which on my gun was very easy to do - all you need is a small hammer and thin metal punch. The cylinder can then be slid out. At the back of the cylinder is a plastic sleeve with another 2.5 mm allen screw holding it to the cylinder, which was not tight and allowed the sleeve to loosen up, creating a lot of play which was killing my accuracy. A little blue Locktite and I snugged it up, but don't overtighten as these are small screws. I also used blue Loctite on the rest of the screws when I reassembled it. NOTE: The 2 forward facing 2.5 mm screws need to be threaded into the ZRS system properly or the barrel won't lock in the forward position after you cock it!! I added a very light coating of lithium grease to the sliding mechanism and now the gun is an absolute tac driver. I haven't tested the FPS over a chronograph, but I bet it is low 800ish with the Diablo heavy pellets. Another tip is get some Crossman Pellgun oil and add a few drops into the trigger assembly. This REALLY smoothed out the trigger and makes it sooooo much more enjoyable to shoot. Now at 50 yards this gun is a squirrel killer. Overall, this is quickly becoming my favorite break barrel. I am really hoping Gamo will adopt this technology into their Magnum series of break barrels, including the Swarm line. After I had the Norica apart I could see that there is absolutely no reason why the two technologies cannot be combined into one amazing high-power break barrel. A Gamo Magnum 10X Swarm with ZRS technology would absolutely corner the airgun market in my opinion. Are you listening Gamo???

Good to see you there.

Excellent concept. I can't wait to see how much you progress once it's broken in and you become more familiar. 👍🎯

That is definitely an interesting rifle. Great video Rick.

Let's fantasize here for a minute. RWS quality. Side cocking lever. Magazine feed system. 900 fps at sea level in .22 cal with a 20 gr pellet. This zero recoil technology. It doesn't hurt to dream.

Great video! Gotta love that ZRS!

That was amazing 👍

I THINK I WANT ONE!!! Thank You!!!

You can demonstrate the no recoil by placing a pellet on the rifle. It stays when firing.

That is impressive! Makes me want to get a breakbarrel!

Recoil for Break barrel Airguns are normal. They did a good job for the recoil 👍 I only wish they add 10 shots magazine with anti double feeder. It will be a top notch😀 👍Thanks for the review Rick 👍🙂👋

That was some very good break barrel shooting

Out of all the guns I have and used, springers/gas are my favorite. This seems like a blast to play with and awesome for new shooters or your wife so they don’t need to worry about holds.

I’d like to see more of the internal workings. I own an Air King and it’s amazing. I’m intrigued by what they did to float the action. I agree with you about the stock, I’d also prefer something more traditional. But I do like pistol grips. They could make the stock look better in a tactical configuration.

Pretty cool. That tech would be great in an old school wood stock. Thanks. Kevin.

Nice scope, my get one my self

Finally a real game changer in the break barrel industry. Very interested to see much more, thanks for this one Rick!

Yea. It's a pretty neat system..

You make the cocking efford seen heavy using two hands to complete the cocking? 😊

Not even a twitch...amazing.

That's intriguing and I can tell you really like it. It's ugly though!

Increíble, como lo lograron

The barrel is moving toward the stock when you pull the trigger. So is it moving toward a piston to counter the recoil? I've been noticing these rifles popping up alot lately. While 660fps isn't terrible it doesn't matter if it isn't accurate. They look like a fugly kids toy. But im interested in seeing more if the same tech is in their cheaper rifles.

What? I like the recoil! It reminds you you are using a weapon!

Virtually almost no sound like a ordinary breakbarrel. Puts out.

Rick??Only 660fps??Thanks

basically it's a big boy pellet slinging red Ryder I say that because they don't recoil also look closely at the barrel it sucks into breach block like a cannon

i really want to see the group size in cm

Is that 15 ft pounds of energy?

Just needs a mag feed to be perfect.

What is the velocity with the JSB's?

I love pyramid air eighty percent of my stuff came from them

Please take your offhand hand out of the sandbag/rest when zeroing. That introduces your pulse and respiration into the shot placement and groupings.

Why not direct your audience to observe the reciprocal motion of the barrel in the stock when the gun is shot thereby achieving recoilless shooting?

Meus amigos, tenho várias armas de ar comprimido, tenho uma destas comprei à 1mês atrás, moro em Portugal, ao lado de Espanha, está arma é espetacular, não se falha um tiro... Podem comprar, tenho várias, mas está não fica atrás de algumas PCP de gama alta. Nórica omnia zrs.... Top

If they can do this with a magnum break barrel I’ll be impressed

Go shoot iguanas with that neat rifle.

Me personally if it is a accurate rifle out to say 30 40 yd I will get rid of all of my PCP

O cara tá mais ofegante do que eu depois de correr 8 km, e eu tenho 50 anos... 😬😬😬😬

Zero Recoil - Zero Interest 😂

Disappointing results on accuracy

Heavy with scope at ~9lbs, no wonder there's no recoil.

If one is going too use A "Rest" , , allow the rest too do it's job....

Can hardly even hear the thing too.

Kind of ugly, lol. Looks like it might be a shooter with the right pellet.

Shoot already

Tongue tied, literally can't speak when describing this ugly, ugly rifle. Not 1 word about the trigger. Accuracy was NOT what I demand for a $400 rifle. Pistol grip takes this rifle off the table for me. No wonder there's only 2 reviews on the rifle @ PA after being offered for sale for 6 months or more.

this kind of tech is not a new one - Diana with the mod 54 and some other brands like FWB landed it 40-50 years ago
