Questions for anyone who is experienced with Benjamin Armadas..

[Jake4578]

Hi, & thanks for checking out my thread, I’m new to the Armada & fairly new to PCP all around..
If any of you can help me out it would be much appreciated! (.22)

1. Is the Armada capable of being a slug gun? If so what does it take to get there?
2. What are some good mods for functionality & or Cosmetically?

Thanks all!

I would really like to find a big over size bolt as it seems to be a bi* ch to cock..

I know this is an old post. Nontheless, you do not need or want a larger bolt. What you do need is to either make or purchase (from AGR) a thumb rest that screws into the aft end of the tube cap. You place your thumb on the thumb rest and index fingers on the bolt in a close as possible to center line and then instead of pulling back with your hand, you just squeeze as if squeezing a rubber ball. Much easier to cock this way and as fast and tactile as a SL.

You are correct!

Has anybody tried the semi auto armada?

I've got one and love it. Pellet on pellet at 26 yards with Predator 11.1's. I just got some JTS 18's and 22's to try. It's all stock so far. The 22's don't load well. Going to try some adjusting. Just got a Garmin Chrono so I can start getting serious. My old Chrono was showing 930's with the Predators but not catching most shots.
It's takin down lots of coyotes at 20-30 yards. I'll have 12-15 go by a night. Some even come up my driveway. Well, let's say use to come by.
