I was laughing at that thing until it went through that steel tray.

Thanks for not editing out, malfunctions and mistakes, like not replacing the metal disc after shooting. It helps us to honestly evaluate the product. You might try, adding some articles of clothing to the ballistic gel tests, so we can see what level of penetration we can expect in a realistic setting. Thanks again!

A little silicone oil on the burst discs and they'll hold air 100% for months and maybe longer. No more "psshhhh" failures either. I've had the D2 for a while and shot it lots in 357 457 and shotty barrels. Only had 2 "psshhh" failures *ever*. It does work once you get the hang of it. If that happens it means you lost air pressure before firing. But as I said it's something you can reliably prevent from happening for longer than you would think.

Air guns have come a long way,thanks for the real deal tutorials

Firstly, THANK YOU for all your videos!!! I can’t stress that enough. I have learned almost everything I know about air guns and projectiles from your presentations! I’m now Rocking a 20+j TR50 and 30+j HDR 68. Your channel was indispensable in helping me make my choices . You always have interesting subjects, informative content and top shelf production value! As far as this weapon… A whole bunch of NOPE. 😊

First video of yours I've watched. I enjoyed it very much. Very informative, and well put together. You earned my subscription.

Its bad but in early stages. I love the ammo/ projectile. Great idea. I can see this becoming a viable option over time.

Great in depth and honest review Thanks for the data brother. Saves a lot of time and frustration 👍🏽

Thanks for making these videos. I think these devices are pretty cool 😎.

I love your channel and your acting. Also love this new gun!

Thanks for sweating it out and your great work.

very original system for this gun. Impressive impact power

Great video. Very informative, thank you.

Very interesting piece of equipment. great review. thanks man.

Great video, thanks for posting.👍👍👍

I like the concept. There's a lot of good ideas that went into creating this airgun. However, it seems it still has some refinement required to make it more reliable and get full performance from the cartridges

Man, I just love the intro.

THANKS MISTER 🎯

"Gun control is hitting what you aim at." _Charlton Heston_

I just made my own version of these a couple days ago with .25cal slugs. I used 26.9gr nsa slugs and put brass tips from h&n crow magnum pellets in the slugs hollow point tips. Had no idea anyone produced slugs that are metal tipped.

Great video buddy happy new year

For a self defense tool i think a hard trigger is fine, and accuracy for close range would be fine as well. I suspect you could do some home tuning for a great tool. Great video that answers all questions.

i googled it and your video popped up first wow !!!

That looks like a useful "getaway" tool. Deal some serious pain while exiting a bad situation!

It's like a really big air powered Derringer. Makes my Bond Arms look tiny. I kinda figured it was going to have air charged cartridges. There was a company importing and selling... I think it was a PCP replica of an old Springfield Trapdoor. It had cartridges you would fill with compressed air and add a projectile to do, then load them in one at a time. Looked really cool, but I think the company importing them went under. Don't know if they're made anymore. There are compressors that run on 12VDC, and can be hooked up to your car battery. You were probably shooting low because the hard trigger will cause you to pull the gun down as you fire. I can't say for sure, but it did look kind of like your barrel did dip a little before you shot each time.

the derringer of air guns ! nice.

Excellent video as always. I enjoy your channel very much. I have version one of this when it first came out. The barrels were loose and wobbly in the frame. That would greatly effect accuracy. I had to wrap a little electrical tape around the barrels to snug them up a bit. I have never fired it. There is no way of knowing if the loaded air cartridges have leaked out the air until it is fired. If this airgun was needed to defund oneself and the air leaked out, not good 😂

Mine lasted 2 months if that, the handle needs to be redesign for quality & comfort in the hand. Weakest point (hindge) will break, takes all the recoil from 5000psi cartridge with a 68gr slug. Once the hindge cracks, the firing pin can not strike the burst disk properly, a gap forms between the burst disk & firing pin, makes the ppphhhsssss sound. UPDATE - reached out to airgun tactical, informed them of the handle damages, sent few photos showing the areas that broke. They shipped out a new handle, no charge to me. Surprisingly excellent customer service 👏

Love your videos bro

been looking for this video

Ive been close on a couple of occasions to buying this, but its reliability has always been an issue. Its such a great concept and i cant help but think that at some point its gonna take off and its issues will be worked out. PLEASE be careful when carrying these. Ive never heard of any accidents, but theres a lot of pressure being held by those discs...God forbid something bursts when its close to your chest and other "body" areas. I really dont wanna see anything happen to you. I hope i dont sound like im telling you what to do, I just dont wanna see you get hurt. Hope your holidays were good my friend! Great job as usual...see ya next time buddy.

Nice work 🤙

I'd imagine that would be an excellent self-defense tool if you're attacked by balloons.

That electric pump you have is made for filling in the field. It’s set up for battery power too.(car) at least in the one I got that’s the same model.

If this air cartridge concept were incorporated into a pump action style like a shotgun, I’d definitely buy. The only company I’ve seen do this before or similar would be Innovairtech with their MAC air rifle.

Great vid. Where's the shot string? Kidding. What a workout! ... it is quite anti-climactic when you pump 40 times and the thing blows out the back. Thank you for suffering through that.

Great video alot info 👊🏿

How long will the cartridges maintain most of their air pressure?

nice but... they couldn't think of a better way to indicate it's charged except using a disc that is technically in the process of failing??? I was already wondering about the structural integrity of the air cartridge as that is obviously a potential disaster if it isn't very tough. This bulging disk is not just a poor choice, IMO, it's actually negligent design because it is reasonably foreseeable that it will fail. Thank you for your continuing service to the airgun / less lethal community. You are a gem.

Oh, Brother. Are you about to send me down a whole new rabbit hole? ;)

Great vid.

Bonsoir , c est sympa tout ça,je valide à 100%🤠👍

there is a cool 3D printed revolver shotgun prototype out there called the Liberator 12K zig zag revolver shotgun. with very little modifications, i could totally see it shooting these PCP cartridges.

I have considered the pre-charged cartridge concept before, but his is the first practical one I've seen. I know this is a first generation of this tech, but I see it being embraced by airgun designers in the future. I can see more efficient revolvers and autoloaders in various calibers coming. If they get too good, I can see PCP getting regulated by the ATF at some point. Watch...

kudos! my question: how does one get the 60 joules they say this gun can reach?

Why they dont make pcp air reservoir in the handle like co2 guns?

i conceeal a gk1 but I think im gonna pick that one up too.

Your favorite felon gun channel!

Make that with the HDS body design would be cool. But I'm confused with the metal disk. They bubble up?

Thanks for the great review. The Defender series has always had reliability issues. Did you test what the performance is at 4500 psi instead of 5000 psi. I think that 5000 is too high and a prime source of failures. Thanks again.

Good video! How much energy does the pistol deliver with the pellets your using? How does it compare with other firearm pistols?

I like the power but just a little too much work for such a small airgun and with only 2 shots. Not bashing ( with all due respect ) but I'll take my chances on C02 pistols with the capability to shoot 8-10 shots at a time with .177 hornets 😅

Whoever designed this is fired.

Nice video as always. Cool pistol. Not legal here. Keep up the good work. Cheers from your friend in Norway 😃

That's nice

I can’t wait to see version 3.0

Thanks for another great video I wouldn't trust that platform for self defense it seems those cartridges always leak. I will stick with my gk1 hey what compressor do you have that goes to 5000 psi? Thanks😊

That’s what I’m talking about! Good morning brother!

I wanted to see if itll break glass.. eill it penetrate fiberglass?

Heyup chap, quite an innovative pistol, looks like a potential too much fun gun 😁 all the best for 2024 cheers buddy, Jon 👍 Hawkes Eye TV 👍🇬🇧😁

Thumbs up for your great magic trick :D Damn that's a cool gun, I really like that it have what looks like a great sight with fiber optic. that is something I really miss in my umarex guns :D Great video as always :D Thank you for the great content :D

How does the firing mechanic work? Is it a hammer strike, or does the firing pin just push against the rear of the cartridge?

Nice little PCP

I'll be sticking with the huben gk1

Hi Gian I've seen plenty of those videos on Macabe Speed channel and always a misfire so even these Gen 3 ones are unreliable for personal defence but thanks for sharing I always enjoy your content greetings from SA 🇿🇦

Noticed everything is shooting very low. I suppose a laser or a red dot sight will be an adequate fix.

I dont know this gun! You are a very good handyman😉👍

Another great vid with something new. But, this gun requires way too many steps to shoot just a couple of rounds, but seems pretty powerful. I'll stick to my Umarex HD 50 T4. Simply insert the co2 click to activate, and shoot away. Thanks for this new update!

Thank you for the review, Gian. 🤔 I think your name is Gian. Cool little gun. Love your videos bro. 👍😎

Cool!

I'm 68 yrs old and I luv the new air guns, Ive had airguns sInce I was 12 yrs old and got my first within which was the pump action gun . Pump it about about 20 times and could see the BB come out. Lol Today's air guns are awesome I would have a whole collection of these new air guns if I could afford it.

Needs refining and practice to get used to, probably, but this is a very powerful gun!

Interesting

What I'm wondering is if I could just pre fill say 12 air cartridges and pre load without worrying about the cartridges loosing pressure.

I mean the fact that you can carry it in Boston without no gun license is pretty cool, can’t carry a Airgun in NYC but can in Massachusetts

Great Video 💯💥💥💥💥💥💥💥

The Design and Concept of Both the Pistol and Ammo have Serious Potential. I think that if the Right People focused on just the Air Cartridge and Redesigned it and made it Totally Dependable, then it could be Safely carried for Active Self Protection. Thanks for the 411.

This is the future

Could this thing really compare to the air ringer? In self defense terms?

Nice tunnel!

Is the stl file available? Because I have the AEA defender and a 3 d printer.

I was really thinking about buying this gun but after seeing this video it turned me off. It's described to have eliminated the same old issues but obviously not yet fixed. I'll stick with my s45 mini for now. Thanks

Wow magnifique❤

think this would be great with a shotgun style round clip on a rifle that is semi or full auto in the 9mm pellet

I actually like it. Yes, it’s a 2 shot and that’s all you got type of weapon. In an altercation, this gives you a chance to escape/evade, or a small snickers break to figure out what to do. Or, maybe a chance to close the distance for a clinch if it’s a must. It’s an option. I love options. So, pick your poison wisely fellas....

Guys I really enjoy the content but have you ever thought to maybe fire your rounds a little higher on the target? Asking for a friend. You, you are my friend....😂 Thanks for the video

how many pumps it takes to charge them my awesome brother ???

What about building a slamfire tube mechanism like one of those cheap diy slamfire shotguns but out of pvc pipe? Cheaper, I think. Also more concealable... and legal since it's not a firearm

Et voilà !👍👍👍

Is this weapon legal to carry loaded in a vehicle ?

This is great news for responsible citizens that caught a felony. Also it looked like the pellet tumbled 180° in the gel.

Alright mate 👍 great little gun good power shame about the reliability of it .dont like the idea of them disc plates incase fauls fier . On the plus side glad you are showing me all types of guns that i didnt know where out their 👍 probly stupid idea would the ammo fit the torpedo revolver you have or was it smaller as always keep up the good work 👍

Umarex makes the best self defense co2 guns.

Do these ship to uk?

cool

Airgun Tactical makes an upgraded version of this same pistol with longer barrels, higher velocities, and upgraded firing pin assembly that does not break like this one in the video did. At nearly 500 fps for the heavier pellets, it is a viable self-defense option for areas where a real firearm is illegal.

Hi guys I recently moved to an area where firearms are illegal but air guns are not. What is the best air pistol for self defense within a reasonable budget. I’m fairly new to the whole airgun thing as I used to legally be able to carry a firearm. I’ve seen the videos on the Huben GK1 and others like that but cannot currently afford something like that right now. What’s a good option within a reasonable budget? I’ve also seen some videos on tuned hdr68 s but I’m not sure how effective those would be. Is there something slightly more expensive/effective than that but cheaper than the Huben? I know you cannot feasibly get firearm performance from and air pistol but that Huben comes pretty close which is what I’m aiming for. I was really hoping this one would be that but it seems to be unreliable Thanks in advance!

What hand pump is that?

*I own 3 of these and know how to make them 300% more powerful. I just put a dab of Klotz oil & grease mixture in the back of each pellet and the 5000 PSI burst of air makes the oil explode and "Diesel" making the pellet go twice the speed. My pellets Kronograph'd out at 1800 FPS when DIESEL'd in the 'Defender 3! Also it was LOUD! Like a real gun!!! This is the only way to carry a concealed a gun in California that really has stopping power and since its an AIR GUN there are no laws regulating it,,,,,, yet. After a few Rapists and Robbers are killed with air guns I am sure the Democrats will do everything possible to protect these people from being shoot.*
