Kongy.'s Review of Ripley AR5s
2nd Jun 2002
Overall Rating
- Value for money
- Handling
- Accuracy
Quality of manufacture, reliability, looks, balance, The way it shoots. All this and much, much more. This is the best gun I have ever shot. Line up the shot and you just know you wont miss. The gun is dead when fired, totally dead. I have a CRX and that is a good rifle but, this most super of the superguns is the one for me.
Bad Points
The length of time it takes to get one. Two months from order to delivery.
General Comments
Ripley AR5s air rifle. I have wanted one of these babys ever since I shot one for the first time last year. Originally I wanted an XL1 in 1.77 but they only made a handful of them before they stopped production. In my quest for the best I bought a CRX, it's a great gun but didn't fulfil my deepest needs, it just didn't hit the spot. So I had to have a Ripley. I went the whole hog and had it shod in a Paul Wilson stock. Waited the two months and finally got my baby. I put my Custom Shop scope on it and hit the range. Five shots later it was zeroed at thirty yards, and ten later doing half inch groups at sixty five yards. The gun is so consistant and dead when fired it fills me with confidence and that is fifty percent of the shot- you just feel that you won't miss.
Without a doubt the best gun I have ever fired.

Totally agree with the review. I've had mine for just over a month now and it's awesome :) I might have to retire my beloved RN10 at long last.

Gibt es eine Firmenwebseite von RIPLEY? | CO2air.de
Ripley ja "freuen". Wer's nicht weiss: die engl. Firmen Daystate (CRX) und Ripley (AR5S) sind in der FT-Szene relativ führend. Umso interessanter also, das K. Montague nun zu Walther wechselt.
