This is the first time I've ever seen you, but what a great review. You are a natural on video with your honest no nonsense approach. I subscribed immiediately after the video ended I'm looking forward to seeing more of your stuff, well done mate.

Hi Chris, I recently commented on your review, though after watching again, I don't think I've done you the justice you deserved. I think you've come across very well. You look very comfortable in front of the camera. Your review is very in depth, covering every aspect of the rifle. Very well done! I'm warming to the rifle, still feel like, if I bought one, I should be shouting, "Hey, don't push me" and wearing a headband! One thing I've noticed about these tactical air rifles is, they come in a moulded case, with all you bits and pieces, attachments securely placed inside, sat in moulded foam. I think that's very enviable and a great idea. I look forward to more of your reviews, as they're a great watch. Best wishes my friend.

Great review... I've owned my sub 12 ft pd's factor chambered in .22 for around 6 months and really like it. The only issues I've encountered is the trigger keeps dropping down, I've had the gun Smith refit the trigger and adjust the retaining screw but it keeps happening and wonder if yourself or any one else has had this problem? The adjustable AR style stock has a little wobble but it's not really bothered me. I get through around 6 magazines of pellets per range visit (shooting targets), so it's a good practice to keep a couple of tins in sock at any one time. I paid around £500 uk pounds for mine added a vector optics scope at around £200 more and a bi pod, I've also wrapped my air tank in camo cloth tape to stop any damage.

Hi Chris. Like a few others, I stumbled across your review by accident. I really liked the watch. You come across very well. In my humble opinion, you have a great manner. A general, easy going, honest, likeable kind of bloke. The rifle looks fine, though I'd go for the more traditional kind of rifle. I love the wooden stock, precision, craftsmanship of an air rifle. With upmost of respect, that's more Robocop, Rambo style to me. Not my thing really. It looks good though. The cocking lever looked a little notchy/clonky. Overall though, it looks good and twenty one pellets per magazine is pretty good too. You've done a great review, and you have a thumbs up from me. Well done! Good luck for future reviews. Best wishes mate.

Nice review! I initially found you channel when looking for Pard NV reviews, great to see you review the Factor too, although I have the .25 cal, 42 ft-lb version which is probably slightly different in behavior. Still interesting to see your views on it, there's not a huge amount of reviews of this rifle out there yet. I enjoy your style of presenting, clear, informative and to the point. Would be interesting to see some more serious (as in, also usable for hunting) "mid-range" air rifle reviews too, many review channels tend to focus on the cheap plinking ones or the really expensive ones. A small suggestion regarding the video, maybe add a text mention on the shooting part of the video of the distance you're shooting at? You did mention it later but I think it would be even better if displayed at the actual point of shooting. Looking forward to more reviews!

@icuppu2 3 ай бұрын

Fireworks effect such as BANG! The report at the muzzle is from the difference in pressures meeting each other. Setting the rifle to it's highest velocity will require the highest pressure and that highest pressure will give you the loudest report because of the sudden high mass of air concentrated on the muzzle area. A suppressor suppresses the amount of mass of air exiting the muzzle and thus gives a small report as the large air mass hisses out the suppressor cavities and out the muzzle.

Stumbled on this review by accident , I must say the way you talk to your audience and they way you speak about the rifle and your thoughts on it were very professional , I don't know how long you've been doing this ,however long or short the period is you are a natural mate , the rifle is not for me , unfortunately I overlook the more affordable rifles because I've seen and heard so many horror stories about the everlasting list of problems they seem to have had , however I'm keen on the reximex myth as a pure pest control rifle , have you any experience with them ?( I've just subbed)

@chrisparkin431 Жыл бұрын

Thank you. I have been a magazine reviewer for 12 years, video is something I do if I have the time for it, it wouldn't even pay the ammo bill for a rimfire, never mind centrefire rifle review. I haven't had a Reximex but it's fairly easy to see the fashionable design cues being followed
