N/A What do you advise? Brands.

Edgun vs Fx here we go. First challenge is being run over by an SUV.

That's the same argument the Evol guys make. But me, personally, I just choose to not run over my guns...or drag them behind my truck for miles for that matter. Easier life that way

lol I’d NEVER EVER do any of that. I’m totally playing. I’ve owned them all. None are immune to anything even my Edguns. My wildcat was one of my best shooters

My Leahiy classic stays in a backpack which gets moved around by my wife because I put it in front of a cabinet she uses. Always on target each and every time

I dont think you will find many precision rifles being run over by an SUV on purpose however I also own a Leshiy2 I love!, (but I don't intend to try the SUV test on it)

The weak link in the L2 is the magazine and mechanism unfortunately but the rest is tough as nails. I own a couple of the 2s and I’m very careful with them. The L1 is probably the rougher and rougher brother of the 2

As with many sports different Brands come to mind. What is a Brand/Brands of Air rifle do you recommend shying away from? There are so many it's hard to keep all of the names straight. Are there certain ones that you personally avoid, and encourage others to do the same? With Newbies like Myself, what brands come to mind that you would avoid? This could be a big help to many. Thanks.

I like Daystate or Brocock via Airguns of Arizona

Brocock is tough and reliable and priced right

AOA is great I bought my first 3 "adult" air rifles from them.

I would add BSA to that list form the same dealer!

I would never touch a Hatsan.

My Criteria is high, but My budget is moderate. I want 210 Bar fil or lower, Quiet, Accurate, Medium price range. Hatsan as well as Umarex are out, so I keep researching. Thanks for everyone's input thus far.

Airforce Condor , Talon. Raw micro hunter is a 200 bar fill

Two absolutely murderous on pest PCPs that meet your criteria… They both killed hundreds of pests for me. An Artemis pp700sa and a Gamo Urban, in practical use they simply got it done… Low fill pressure, hand pumpable, accurate and capable.

 

[PasadenaMike]

I want to add the Urban is part BSA

I have thought about a Talon or Condor myself as a tinker gun. If one doesn't mind a single shot. Price point is right and very modular with numerous aftermarket upgrades available.

If you can find a used S510...that would be a good choice.

The brands that I've owned that seem well made and have been a joy to own and shoot are Daystate, Brocock, RAW and Weihrauch. The brand I would never own again is Hatsan.

The simplest airguns to own and operate that I have experience with have been the Benjanin/Crosman renditions of the Marauder. I had a Marauder rifle years ago until I started getting into some of the higher end ones. I still have a 1701 pistol as well as the Prod and 1720 in carbine configuration. I'll never get rid of them because of how simple they are to work on should you decide to make any changes.

No matter which airgun you use, you’ll have to spend sometime to manage/maintain/fix it. The only difference is how much time you’ll spend doing that.

I’ve ended up with two; an AirForce Condor SS (as simple as an airgun gets for me) and a Daystate Delta Wolf HP (the most consistent one I’ve ever owned, requiring the least tinkering). I avoid everything else.
