General Comments
Just upgraded to the Air Wolf after years of my trusty axsor serving me well. As soon as I picked up this rifle I knew I had to have one, it looks the bees and is such an effortless pleasure to use. It does feel a tad heavier than other guns on the market, but the weight is in all the right places - i can hold this gun perfectly still, so shooting without a bipod(standing up) is easy. I found the magazines a little fiddly, you have to push the pellets into a tiny hole and then spin it, takes a good few minutes and is nigh on impossible in the dark - so a spare or two is a must which, at 50 notes each, aren't cheap. The electronic trigger is a joy although i have pressed it accidentally on a few occassions due to the sensitivity setting(which i haven't got round to adjusting yet).
410 shots per fill, say no more, 5000 shots from an electrical charge - good enough and one shot kills everytime. The only gripe I have is that i was thinking of applying for my FAC and to up this gun to over 12fp, is not just a case of shaving hammer springs and opening ports. It must be sent to Daystate for stacks of new bits including electronics - which i didn't know. So, it looks like ill be staying under the UK limit for now.
At 1100 quid, it isn't the cheapest rifle about, and there are cheaper versions that will do the job just as good - but if you demand the very best and dont mind spending a few extra quid - then buy this gun, you wont regret it.
