Very nice review. the downside for me is coming to a fair conclusion without considering VERY different price points.

Three sweet airguns right there. Nicely done, brother.

I have a Diana Bandit in .22 to which I added 2 barrel bands and a regulator and believe me it will out shoot any of these guns at 25 yards . I love my Diana Bandit but like you said I wish it had a foster fitting instead of a fill probe .

looking for an off the cuff comparison between the Toauto A3 and the GXE- L2 ..... anyone ?

the Benjamin is very good, but costs 2.5 x the price of a PP700/Diana Bandit here in Belgium.... To shoot in my garden the Diana is powerful enough and at a good price.

I have the Diana Bandit PCP Kit on its way just in time for Christmas 🎄 🇺🇸🇭🇷.

Great video John. I never seen a video on all 3 guns . I have the pp700sa it was my first pcp. lot of shots went through it. 👍👍

That was great. I own all but one of those guns, got to get that Benjamin for sure lol. Thanks for the video, keep it up man.

I am getting some crazy numbers out of my Bandit .22 on the chronograph. I was surprised to pass 700 fps with the pistol and over 850 fps with the rifle barrel using 14.3 grain lead pellets.

Close to 700 fps in .22 caliber is very good for a budget pistol.

That was a great shootout between those three. I really like the pp700 styling and agree it's time for manufacturers to toss those probes in the garbage. Pic rails are definitely a better way of securing a scope agreed. The good ol P-rod has made it through the test of time, definitely a classic. Great video my friend! 💪

Thank you and bravo, well executed test. But the PPS700 was DOA for me from the beginning of the video, no magazine. Then you added a few more reasons I won't be buying PPS. I have a Diana and recently picked up the Marauder. In both cases I purchased CARM magazines and I pitched the OEM mags in the trash or they broke. I bought the suppressors from Buck Rail. Carms take those 2 pistols to a higher level the PPS can't touch. And the Marauder quality is well beyond the Diana. Buck has nice tactical upgrades too which I purchased for both. This really wasn't a fair match, but you were very nice to all contestants.

I have four Marauder rifles as my workhorses in pest control and they have never let me down. My oldest Marauder is a Gen 1 and is 12 years old. It's held full pressure all these years without fail. I bought a drop in regulator but haven't found a reason to install it.

The louder the better I say along with the recoil.😎🇺🇸

I have the p-rod in .22 and the bandit in .177. The prod is my go to

Nice video I love pistols, can you recommend a good red dot sight with a clear retical? I want one for my reximex mito

Benjamin marauder P rod😉👍😎

Thanks. I would like to know when you said hunting with the Benjamin marauder what is the maximum shooting distance for hunting if you don’t want to wound the animal? There has to be a point where penetration and accuracy drops off with this gun.

Great vid. sir! LOVE my P-Rod. Shot a couple pigeons couple days ago. Mine likes the pointed 14-15 grainers and have shot some 1" groups at 50 yds with 14.3 gr Crosman pointeds. I have a 4X Barnett Xbow scope on mine with the multiplex reticle that's GREAT for long distance allowing for 100ish MOA trajectory compensation once parallax is adjusted via objective lens adjustment. Actually shot a 165-yd. coke can in 4 or 5 shots couple years ago with it and ballistics program was very close to calcd. DOPE.

I'd like to see a review on that Beeman 2027. I see know coverage on KZfaq of that one on English. Ik it's only .177 but it's $169 and there is a cool tactical conversion kit available for it. If we could get a longer barrel and do some tweaks that be a decent varmint gun for the backpack

I have an Artemis SA and had cranked to blow over 20 ft lbs. I now have it about 10. I see the 1st shot on Bandit was low so I wouldn't fill so much.

I just got my .22 cal. Marauder and I love it. I see yours with a moderator on the barrel in one segment of this video. Which one is it, where can I get one, and how do you install it? Thanks.

Hey John, really enjoyed the comparison. Nice to see some compact options from a hunter that actually uses them. My pick would be the Artemis/PP700SA - for the performance vs size it is a capable tool. Also, the price is pretty good on these. Looking forward to more comparisons like this.

I got two bandits for one prod 1 177 and 1 22. They shoot one whole group at 10 Yards.

Your review was very helpful in my decision on my first air pistol, I had already pretty much decided to go with the marauder but watched your review. Well done. Any suggestions were to purchase the whole kit,, pump, p-rod and stock?

I like the Marauder and know its a really good pistol/carbine as far as price point and build quality and look the PP700 does it for me I think it will. be a great gun to tinker with and modify. thanks 🙏

Thank you sir for the excellent comparison! But the Benjamin is 4x the price of the Diana over here. Most nice air guns are twice the price in Europe, but this one takes the crown.

I have a snowpeak pp800r and i can shoot 18 pellets 177cal and it shoots 23 joules and 230 m/'s And if i mount my diana chaser rifel barrel on it it shoots 260m/'s

74 fps extreme spread and std dev 27 on the Diana seems insane to me! I guess that's what you get for a much less costly gun. Are any of them regulated?

Very good review! Nicely done! I have the Bandit .22 and for the money seems like a great plinker 25 yard hunter. My 9 year old grandson loves it even more with the camo stock added to it. Small and light and fits him perfectly. That PP700 though…NICE! May have to get one of them too! Agree 100 % on probes🤢 Regulators👍💯 and pic rails💪👍💯. Love the left side bolt on the Bandit. P-Rod is the most consistent and accurate I think for the win overall.

Hi John I bought myself a Diana Chase 177 caliber for Christmas I used it in the rifle configuration mostly I really like it really powerful gun enjoy your reviews staysafe John God bless

What are the db for all 3 with moderators?

The Benjamin❤ I love those but UK is limited to 6ft/lb, even a "full power" carbine would only be allowed 12ft/lb, and then it'd have to be long enough to be considered a rifle😢 usa airgun powers are bonkers😮

Do they make a single shot tray for the Marauder ?

Hay John. I was watching this video again because the PP750 (a multi shot) which has been out for over a year now would have been a better comparison and only at 250. You may have to borrow one for a more updated comparison at 25 yards and with chrony numbers too.

Great video and testing Wingman.🇺🇸

I just build a 2240 benjamin discovery hybrid. It's nice and compact. Now I am working on a benjamin marauder pistol with a small air bottle.

The Bandit is back asswords on the shot string lol.

Are u doing any upcoming videos on the Hatsan Supercharger or the Hatsan MOD25 Supertact anytime soon?

so you just picked the most expensive of the bunch and went with that?

There’s a mk2 version of the Diana it’s called the Arse bandit , have you tried that one ?

Can't go wrong with the a Marauder accuracy longevity and a 3 or 5 year warranty!

I can't decide on .177 or .22 for these tiny guns w/ tiny reservoirs.

I had to have a pistol with some good wood handle feel…no jokes.🤣

Very cool! Awesome video!

Diana Bandit🎯

the artemis pp 700 sa i choose you can adjust the hammerspring first remove grip ,and adjust the regulator from the outside ,it shoots the .22 33 grain jsb monsters at high speed , the single shot is no problem ,because loading is easy and litlle magazines are also not handy to load with big fingers ,and its like the bandit not to expensive

Great video

I love the Marauder, but at £450 and running a set 8lb power here in the UK it doesn't seem like the best value for £ here😢

Marauder €585 bandit €179 so easy pick .i go for the bandit 👍😉

The CO2 Ladybug is much better than the Bandit - all around.

I thing this three guns are not comparable. The Marauder is far more expensive then the Onix or the Diana. The Onix it´s just a single shot gun, while the Diana is a multi shot gun. This is like comparing Raviolis with Spaghettis and Maccarrones.

Just put a reg in the P Rod.

I have my pp700sa shooting at 26fpe 17 shots on regulator

Nice

The Bandit is half the price of the other two though.

How does this compare to Notos?

Nice bro, is that decibel rating an app?

LOL from your first few words about the marauder I already knew which one you were going to pick. It's hard not to pick the favorite when you've shot it for so long and had it for so long even though it wasn't the most accurate

Umarex is coming out with the NOTOS later this summer!

A unique characteristic of the bandit is I can buy 2 of them for the price of 1 marauder

When you say you put a moderator on the first one, is it one you have to pay $200 fee and wait a year for??

What's the price of this guns in india

The Hatsan Jet 2 should be a new one on the list!

Might just me..but u dont need a scope on a pistol..rifle for sure..im watching this bcoz i consider to either buy bandit or diana stormrider pcp.

So they can be as lethal as traditional firearms?

AEA hpss

The Air Bug beats them all.

The best caliber for PCP pistols is not the. 22, is the. 177, I have the artemis pistol in this caliber. 177 and gives me excellent results in hunting hares, pigeons, partridges, Vizcachas and ducks the Artemis PP700 W is an excellent choice for hunting. The best thing about the PP700w, is that attaching a culatin, has nothing to envy to the carbines of this same system, for pest control and for the hunting of animals up to 7 kilos in weight is insurmountable Greetings from Tacna Peru South America

So my story is ... well first off becuase of you... i went with the Marauder pistol ha , Glad i did im cookin on my front porch for the holiday i hear my lil yorkie pups i had in the back yard screaming!! i run back there a coyote got one by the tail trying to pull it thru a picket fence i grabbed that Marauder put 2 in his head the coyote let go ran in circles the dropped i live in montana all kinds of critters around here Glad i had that gun i dont think a broom handle would have worked.

I’ve owned all three. The trigger on the 700 is hideous. The grip on the Diana is gross. If I had to do it all over again, I’d get the pRod.

Hard to beat the Prod!

Great shootout John! The Prod would have been my choice too!

👍👍

👍

you are biased and it shows. prod isn't a pistol anyway admit it

Black strike B030- и пусть не говорят, что Диана это из Германии. Хороший пистоль.

Marauder is consistent at stacking dimes but it has no speed no range.Shoot a Squirrel or bird at 20 yard they catch the pellet and throw it back at you faster that itbleft the muzzle.Sent it back for repair.They said no repairs it was working perfectly tuned at 3k etc...Not worth 100$ let 500$

I felt for the marauder also
