Have you found that “ One Airgun”?

bigmike · 2025-01-17T09:56:27-0600

So, I have been on sort of a quest. It has been in the search of that one gun. You know the one you would keep if you had to get rid of all your other airguns.
It has been an expensive quest for me so far have I bought and sold about 25 pcp’s and seven springers looking for the one. I currently have 15 pcp guns all higher end guns. I have had $800.00 guns up to $2700.00 guns but I just can’t seem to find the one gun I would keep above all others.
My question to you all is have you found that “one gun” ? The one you would keep if you could only have one.

As I write this today I still am torn between four of my current pcp’s. Not sure which I would choose and would not be sure if any are the one. Maybe there is still one out there I have not thought to try. I do lean heavily towards PCP airguns. Springers are just not for me.

So if you have found that one for you post a photo here and if you want share why it is the one for you ( springers welcome). I am hoping there is something I have not tried yet that could be the one for me.

I know this question has been asked before but it seems like there are constantly new airguns being manufactured and released.

EDIT 1/18@ 9:45am.

I have most of the popular FX airguns, Taipan, Edgun, Airmaks, Brocock and have had many other brands. But as my collection stands right now I think it would be between my Taipan Mutant and my Crown MKII with the Crown having the advantage.

Having said that looking at the replies to this thread there are more airguns I need to try.

Search the forum for this same question being asked quite a few times before. There are pages of answers/suggestions. It's so subjective too. What checks MY "one gun" box might not check YOURS. If I HAD to pick one it would be one of these (FX Bobcat .22, Royale 500 .25, Boss .30 front to back) The ONE would probably be the Royale.

UDABEGGER · 2025-01-17T10:44:16-0600

The M4 Impact in 22 cal . I love to fiddle and tune . I have yet to find a pellet or slug that I cannot tune great accuracy for.

But which one of these?

I have had the same problem in mind for some time now. Circumstances last year forced me to sell my entire collection, so this year, i vowed to only buy one gun, and stay that way. I use my guns purely for pesting, and no farther than 75yds. My criteria other than that is easy to repair, built rugged, accurate, and cheap ammo. I settled on my evol mini. Hate that I sold my first. I now have another. If it’s anything like my original, it’s the only gun I’ll ever need.

Ranchibi · 2025-01-17T11:06:44-0600

Definitely my RAW HMx LRT .22 the older smaller breech version. It's so consistent unlike me....

MikeAllen · 2025-01-17T11:48:52-0600

R.A.W. HM1000X without a doubt.

shambozzie · 2025-01-17T11:55:20-0600

One of these two. Both lefties and blessed by AZ. Raw hm1000x .30 and Rapid mk ll .20.

I said, the Royale (.25). The .30 Boss is my most used for hunting (mostly all I do) but the Royale still packs punch, pellets are cheaper & a wider selection that it shoots well compared to the Boss. But man, the .30 is so impressive in it's terminal power & range of distance, always makes me smile. If a "one gun only" choice though the Royale makes more sense to me.

This side of small teething problems, i am very happy with my epic airguns two rifle.
Actually for a brand new rifle i have never felt this way before, my Maverick was initially a nightmare and looking back i should have sent if back.
My old Cyclone though, always been bang on, so also love that, but it is ancient technology and not able to do what i like to do these days.

I am amazed the Two can get into such a small case considering it is a conventional design and 700 mm barrel, so big fan of the folding tacti cool stock.
Also like the CZ barrel and the accuracy i get, though i do wish there was a .177 barrel revolution, not least for us slug whores.

Okay i was also happy about my Vulcan 3, but its internal regulator and hard to reach hammer adjuster soon ruined that, but otherwise not much i can falter it for.

DeanB · 2025-01-17T12:13:23-0600

Crown MKII Continuum .22 380mm barrel, it does everything I need in a hunting gun, super accurate and balanced very well.
Have 7 others that are real close that I dont want to get rid of except maybe my standard Airacuda, only reason Id sell it is because I have a AA S510 Extra .25.

Treefrog · 2025-01-17T12:14:49-0600

The one?

The old QB-78. Now that it's done, it suits what I sought to accomplish perfectly.

Cheers,

Jaxjax · 2025-01-17T12:20:06-0600

RAW BM500x is my #1

tdog1 · 2025-01-17T13:00:29-0600

Daystate huntsman Safari in 22 .

bigmike · 2025-01-17T13:13:11-0600

Lots of nice airguns so far and many I have never had my hands on. Glad I started this thread.

gendoc · 2025-01-17T13:19:34-0600

i found mine about 3 years ago

UDABEGGER · 2025-01-17T13:55:52-0600

Beware the man who owns just one gun because he knows how to use it !

Scotay42 · 2025-01-17T14:01:53-0600

I would say my Delta Wolf, but it is electronic and that will fail at some point, so it would have to be an Impact variant. The one I have currently is very hard to beat. Thank you again! @starlingassn

Sleestak · 2025-01-17T14:09:27-0600

I'm cursed w being more of a grass is greener than one gun to rule them all type. So nope.

I haven't found it yet but I am getting closer. Probably the next one or two
