rondoman's Review of EunJin Sumatra .22

Good Points

Extraordinarily powerful. (30+ foot-pounds) Very accurate. Smooth 6-shot rotary magazine, easy to load. Throws 20-30 grain pellets far and flat. Well crafted and good looking airgun. Accepts moderator.


Bad Points

Heavy gun. Could use more shots per fill, based on power setting you use. Extremely loud if you don't use a moderator. Poor accuracy if the pellets are less than 18 grains or so. (Wants heavier pellet.)


General Comments

I've had my Sumatra about two months, and love the gun. It's power is quite amazing, and is ideal if you are hunting game. (Not ideal for small game like sparrows and starlings. Too much power, and it will evicerate them.)

I have put about 400 pellets through it so far, and find it to be very very accurate. ( am using a Swift 4-12X40 scope.)

Nice thing is the price. I picked mine up for $390, not including scope, pump or other accessories. Still a great deal for the money.


It is an attractive gun, ideal for hunting and plinking, but not the best for target shooting.
The gun is not light, and can be a drag if you are hulking it around.

    I am thinking about this gun also, would you tell me where you found it in the 22 cal.. I have a springer now and want a pcp. Do you use a hand pump and if so how long does it take to fill it up and how much bother is it??? Number of shots per fill etc. Any info would be greatly appreciated.I live in an area where it would be necessary to use a hand pump and that is the only thing holding me back on buying a pcp.
    Thanks,
    HC
