Andy, I don't even own any airguns these days but I enjoy watching the odd episode. Your presentation has got a very professional feel to it and is a joy to watch. Kind of reminds me a little of Topgear when it was less of a pure comedy product. Keep up the great work mate.

I've had an HDR 50 for quite some time and it's the most fun back yard blaster I've ever known. Great review, I can see you love it too !

HI Andy , great review today ... yes they are fantastic , i bought one of these myself ... i can confirm everything you say .... Worth buying to keep the balloons away ! thanks for your hard work Andy .. .... Cheers Simon

fun fact, these paintball caliber markers got banned in Finland and confiscated from stores. They are trying to figure out how to ban them without banning all paintball guns. Right now the ban applies to all T4E markers because an online seller was selling the different types of more "dangerous" ammo.

I love to see how much fun you had with this one

I’ve got the Glock Gen 5 and the HDR 68 shotgun and both are top quality and pack one heck of a punch .. great guns

A bit of light hearted fun even for the most serious of shooters. Another great review Andy👍

Thanks so much for the interesting and great review, Andy. I look forward to seeing more reviews.

Looks like great fun. Top notch video as usual Andy.

Was an instant fan of this gun from day 1, got mine last summer. at about 25 yards was able to knock tin cans all around the yard, Found it benifited from painting the forend blade white, the recent clone from Snowpeak has high viz fibre sights, much better set up in my opinion. The Umarex quality shines, found alternate cheaper brand .5 cal rubber balls available on line without the eyewateringly high price tag for OE suppliers.

Be looking forward too more of these

Hi Andy. Great vid and range footage. Light hearted, fun and educational as always. The HDR might not be everyone’s cup of tea but there’s no doubting that it’ll provide endless hours of fun for a lot of people. Hope you enjoyed your hols.

Great review as always, I loooove my HDR50 💀👍

I need one now! In my life such fun.

You said it - looks like a real fun “gun” just need the sun 🌞 certainly on my bucket list😀

Great review.

it was a review like this that prompted me to buy one. 🙂

Just acquired two, one the HDR50 and the other the TR50, just in case the balloons appear out of nowhere to save re loading , so in effect 12 rounds available !!

Sick gun, have one my self. Best one in the collection

It looks a really great fun gun. I have a Umarex replica Colt 45 which is also great. I got it as "toy" but was amazed at its performance. At ten yards, hand held all, 6 •177 pellets are within a 2 inch circle. Maybe you could test one of the Umarex replica range, I think that it'd be of interest to your subscribers.

I like these as a target gun. They seem to have a punch and make a nice sound. I do, however, prefer the HDP.

Andy, it's great to see one of your fine videos reviewing this pistol. I've been seriously considering acquiring one, and it looks like great fun - though seeing it drawn from a holster makes me think of Roger Rabbit for some reason. When you do a follow-up video, could you give some idea as to how many shots you can expect from both the low & higher power versions? Thanks for an informative and enjoyable video.

i would think some simple fiddling with its insides should unlock its full potential, but even still... should you choose to defend yourself with it, 6 rounds from it is more likely to seriously anger an attacker rather the stop him! but on the bright side it will be empty when its taken from you, so it cant be used to shoot you with before being used as a hammer to whack you over the head with... repeatedly.

​​@@ralphbooger4756 au contraire. Speaking from medical knowledge, trust me on this, in a bad situation those half inch balls if sadly unfortunate enough to hit the wrong spot would very likely be fatal. About 30 years ago we worked on a chap who'd been hit in the neck from about, we were told by the armed police who guarded us and him in theatre, 4 feet with a .22 round. He was lucky enough to walk out of hospital 2 weeks later.

Looking forward to the .68 review!

The outdoor shots look like spring mill golf course, I wish it was :)

They look loads of fun, imagine turning up at the range with the paint balls. I don't think you would be there for long 🤣🤣😉

Had one a few years ago when I lived in Finland. Great fun for plinking out in the countryside, however calling them 'home defence' is a bit cheeky on the part of Umarex

I got the HDR 50 a few years ago, and mine came with 5 mags, which I thought was an absolute bargain at the time. I always pick up spare mags so having them in the box really was the cherry on top. I also have the HDR 50's little brother, the Umarex Tornado (or Brodax, for our US cousins) which is pretty good, esp for the price, and you can use the Umarex Colt Python mags in the Tornado and shoot pellets.

Rotherham needs a few of these

Hi, Andy how far will these shoot accurately with paintball ammo.

I really want one, I need one for the hunt.

Home defence-24 in Germany has some parts to make it better 👍🏻👍🏻. Much better 👍🏻 But will cost as much as the revolvers purchase price. 1/3 or 1/4 as many shots available but more confident shots.

A real balloon stopper which sits in my gun cupboard in its holster. In the event that I ever felt threatened by balloons or tin plates, I think it is sufficiently safe to store in the house. No question that it would leave a bruise the size of a tin plate on the chest, or leg of any balloon that wanted some action and at 5-10 yards it could easily stop a balloon.

Hi Andy I am 74 years old and just been mugged by a crazy Junkie! I need some form of self defence that is legal but not lethal, I have watched many of your videos and the videos are very well done. Can you advise. The guy pled guilty to serious assault and three other charges, I was jumped in my backyard. I just dont feel safe anymore.

Do these require any type of licence for these like paintball guns with orange bits on them? I'd have thought with a hole that big in the front you might get shot by SWAT! Love though, the grin on Andy's face indicates a lot of fun to be had.

Can you let me know where to buy this and all the necessary ammunition etc, please?

Can you order them in the uk?

Has anyone tried the Snowpeak Defender .50? It's basically a copy of this with slightly different styling. Around 99 quid.

As long as you buy and use this item or similar for it’s intended purpose, a bit of fun in your back garden etc, where do you stand legally if you should decide to fire off a few rounds at someone attempting to or having actually broken into your property? I know this whole area is a literal minefield, but a basic overview would be greatly appreciated.

Hmm. I wonder what 'HDR' stands for.... By the way, at 8:44 I think you meant 'report' (an expolsive sound), not 'rapport' (a close and harmonious relationship).

I live in France and I have just bought the HDR 68 revolver. It's the big brother to the HDR 50 and looks similar - apart from the size, and it's only 5 shot.. With the rubber ball ammo provided it delivers over 16 J. With other types of ammo you can apparently get up to 19.9J. The legal limit in France is 20J. ( Up from 10J in 2013 ). Not sure how long the CO2 lasts. I haven't had a chance to properly test it yet. I think it's only 10 shots.

Hi Andy, I bought an Hdr50 a few months ago from a chap who used to live in France, but has since returned to live in blighty. The problem I have is that when you fit a new co2 cartridge in it & pull the trigger, it empties the contents of it instantly. I was aware of this when I bought it from him, as this was reflected in the price. I was assured it would be an easy repair, but as I am new to the airgun world I don't have enough knowledge to risk tampering with the gun, so can you recommend somewhere I can take it to have this problem sorted, or where I can get a comprehensive owners manual plz. Thanks. Love your channel & content, & am learning so much from your in depth analysis of this sport.
