Your channel is singlehandedly the best air rifle review channel out there. Honestly, the professionalism in everything you do, scripting, cinematography, unbiased reviews...it tops them all. Your effort makes them days when I get back from work shafted, so much easier to get on and shoot after. To get some me time! Invaluable mental tool these vids. Here's to many, many more! Cheers.

You do fantastic work Andy! You are one to emulate. Thanks to the Mrs as well.

Just found this channel, it's so nice to see a UK based airgun source that is so down to earth. This is my second video, and I am already subscribed. Looking forward to catching up and viewing new content.

Another brilliant insight to FAC guns, looking forward the the "BSA shootout", that will be worth watching, stay safe.

Thanks to your channel and a couple of others I acquired my first pcp rifle this month. An avenger in 22cal. with a wood stock. The extra weight makes it easier for me to steady. The vermin in Florida needed another thing to worry about. Thanks for a great channel.

Another fair, balanced and informative review of three great guns. Thanks !

I have shot air rifles for the last 54 years. Had a few in my time but my favorite is my BSA S10 in .22. A friend let me try his BSA R10 in 177, what a gun!!, so accurate you could cleanly shot the nuts of a gnat at 30 yards. Trying to think of an excuse to get one!.

Today i got An r10mk2, it's a beast indeed.

I can honestly say it is you alone that has both encouraged me to get into air rifles and since watching your videos, I've bought 6.

I have had my trusty .22 HW80 for 44 years it's a bit heavy but still does the job well, great show Andy keep up the good work.

Greatly Appreciate your being open with the integrity of your business and greatly appreciate your candor and ability to work with other supplies and companies to get the most stuff for your customer. Also I wish go could review higher powered guns than 12 ft lbs guns.

Just entered the 177 fac family with my own purchase of a FX Dreamline bullpup. I could not agree more with you comments of this superb calibre at 18ft/lbs. Love it. Superb and so capable. Great video content. Si

Nice to see Mrs AAR!

Thank you , Mrs. AAR for your participation and for sharing Andy with us . You are both an asset to the airgun community . Cheers from Texas !

I just ordered the BSA R10 SE in .22 caliber, glad to see its your favorite. Can't wait for mine to arrive in a few days and start shooting!

BSA Meteor was my first air rifle, so looking forward to seeing the BSA range!

Nice garden setup behind you

Thanks for a wonderful presentation. All the best for the future. Looking forward to all your upcoming reviews. Keep up the great work Andy. Cheers Mate. 🥳🤠

Andy....keep keeping it real. The unbiased reviews and opinions are well respected and needed in the community

Absolutely brilliant video and I have to agree that the .177 is the most underrated FAC gun in the bag. 18ftlb is ideal for up to 50m (and beyond on a still day ) with very humane dispatch and accuracy, ideal for enclosed barns and round live stock where collateral damage has to be avoided but longer range/terminal efficiency for the pests is needed. I wonder if the possible slugs being talked about in the caliber will finally materialise as this would most definitely put an end to people tittering quietly about the "lowly" .177. Oh and a note about Spain and the 18ftlb rule, yes thats with out Certificate but all Air Weapons are "in theory" banned from any type of hunting or pest control though as with most things there it is a tad flexibly enforced.

Great stuff. I'm looking forward the the BSA range video. Thanks.👍

totally agree with the 18fpe for us non FAC holders. Would eliminate many problems for the fans of .177 calibre. Yet another quality video from you 2. I owned a BSA goldstar SE a couple of years back and I thought that the gun was not very accurate. It turned out it was me not understanding how to shot properly. Watching videos like yours helps me to understand shooting, and therefore I have improved as an air rifle shooter using a sub 12fpe set up. thanks Andy and the misses. 👍

You deserve sponsors my friend. You have earned your following because of your honest unbiased reviews. You do not seem like a man that would let that change.

Great channel guys well done. Look forward to it each Friday!

Congratulations guys. 👊. I'm an addicted to this show. Appreciate the work you guys do.

From one independent collector to another, just a great channel buddy. Well done again 😎👍

Love your channel, it's by far the best air gun oriented channel in KZread. I have gotten a lot of good tips from you as a beginner hobbyist and hope to see a lot of new videos from you in the future. I particularly love how responsible you are with the gun safety and thorough you are with the reviews. Meanwhile I'm focusing on modding my Crosman AK1 (witch I chose from your recomendation) and building my indoors shooting range to my basement. Keep up the good work!

Good job you two... great team!! Man I love that BSA and now you’ve opened my eyes to .177 again lol. Stay on top, never filtered by persuasion 👊

Your outdoor sofa area back drop looks stunning!

Thanks Andy, great video as always, I love BSA rifles, albeit I live not far from the factory and it's a British company, the R10 sub 12lb is my dream rifle.

Your presentations are excellent. All my guns are magnum break barrels. My favorite , SIG asp20 in .177. A squirrel busting machine. Thanks and keep up the good show.

Great video awesome production as always. Keep up the good work. Thanks 🙏

I love the fact that the Missis had her hands on the BSA! Bet she gets first “dibs” when you guys shoot together! 😊

Thankyou for another great review!!You and the mrs.stay safe!!

Talking BSA - a few months ago my dad handed me his original BSA Meteor and in its original box too. It even has the small bottle of oil that came with it. It still shoots accurately using the BSA scope it came with after all these years and has an oddly satisfying kick though it is really loud compared to my RM8 carbine.

@Ejuice Vaper When I said original I should have stated that it the first ever released model of that rifle (I think 1959-ish). So considering it's all still as it came and shoots well is saying something. And yes, I agree, shooting with open sites and then moving to scope is a good way of developing accuracy as well as patience.

I had the .177 BSA I loved it and regularly took rabbits out to 60-70M cleanly. Mine did prefer the 10.65Gr baracuda match in 4.52mm.

It's good to see British made rifles still hanging in there with the big boys gr8 reviews keep up the good work 👍

Bsa, air arms, daystate and others may fly the flag but often have Italian (minelli) stocks and Lothar walther barrels. I believe BSA make their own barrels. I bought Daystate because I thought I was supporting British manufacture. How wrong could I be!

Love your program Andy and I don't even own an airgun... but now I really want to get one again!

BSA R TEN acquired. New to shooting, but your review, helped me decide, Andy. Feels a quality item and I'm looking forward to shooting.

My Gamo Coyote .22 FAC is a my go to rife for accuracy and dispatch - Superb bit of kit

Great idea to do a BSA lineup review, like you I wonder why so few are covering their excellent products.

Andy (and Mrs AAR), thanks for the review. I too think the R10 Mk2 is my all time favourite. Looking forward to a BSA line up. (Also, sitting here in my AAR Fleece!)

Another really good video, I have BSA Meteor Evo and am looking at getting something with some more power but I'd love to see a review on a full line-up of BSA's

Well done and said to another great information video. Great shooting to her indoors. Keep them coming please. JC

I for one appreciate your honest independent reviews and salute you and have just ordered a BSAr10TH caerbine Black Pepper cant wait

What a brilliant video guys. Thanks andy😊👌😃

Genuine enthusiast.. Nice collection man! Good videos, very informative, nice demonstrations

My first FAC was 2006 Air Force Condor, after that 3 Steyr FAC, Sam Yang FAC, Daystate Ranger FAC, PP700 FAC modified.

I wish you well, from Northern Ireland, love your work!

Informative as always, esp on the FAC .177. Now, a couple of weeks ago you teased us with a forthcoming review of a Kral,.... so KRAL! KRAL! KRAL! : -)

Hi Andy, I have to agree with you about the 19ft/lbs, and the R10. I have a .22 R10 SE And it is superb. I did have to change the Regulator for a Huma though. The Scorpion Se is also a fantastic bit of kit. Looking forward to the BSA 'range' test. Brilliant review, keep up the good work.

To AAR I would like to thank you for the lucid reviews you post. Loving to watch and listen to true reviews without any productmanagemant. Please do pardon me for my English, since it is not my primary language. Anyhow, Thanks

I've not been watching you for long but watching u has got me more jnto shooting always had springers for back garden fun but today I'm buy the hatsan at44 tactical due to your review on the normal hatsan at44-10 big thank you

I always enjoy your videos and so nice to see something on FAC. Would be nice to see you do a Hatsan FAC BT65 review

Excellent review as usual....keep up with the good work you do Andy ;)

Honest informative review, thanks Andy, I look forward to the all BSA line up.

Great video and interesting opinion on the .177 FAC. I think it makes for a compelling argument for accuracy and power, so much so I have ordered one for my collection. And very nice shooting by the Mrs's. Wow, she is very steady and calm. That was all wind creating that tell tale spread in her group. Love the show and thanks for the wonderful content.

You are one of the reasons I got back into air pistols and rifles in 2020.💪🏻🇺🇸

Well done folks,congrats on 50k and all the best for the new venture!👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎

Great review Andy and I’m with you on the BSAs. I have an R10 SE (.177) and an Ultramax SE (.22), both are fabulous, mega accurate and I wouldn’t swap them for anything!

Excellent reviews! Tempting me to invest in a PCP air rifle. I've enjoyed airguns for years, recently got more into firearms, getting the itch to get back into air powered more.

Great video, would really like to see a BSA range review. Keep up the good work!

Hi Andy, I love your videos. Very informative. I have bought a couple of air rifles that you have presented in your videos.

Back in the day I had my share of Weihrauch's, and even a Saxby Palmer bolt action, but my last owned air rifle a BSA Airsporter Stutzen out shot them all. More on BSA for definate please. 👍

This is cool! I recently managed to fix my .177 cal Soviet-Era Baikal IZM-38P. Nothing comparible to the stuff featured here, just a break action springer with dovetailed-in iron sights, but can still get pellets moving at a fair clip, around 750fps, (from what I've heard) and does actually have compacity to mount a scope. With a more powerful spring in it, it would probably become a quite viable little gun. I honestly didn't realize they went this beyond, well, toys though. Very interesting!

Great video as always. Would really love to see the BSA video as i feel they are very under estimated these days. Keep up the awesome work you are a great team.

Great review!! That Wolverine .303 is a beast, way to heavy for hunting. I have a PCP with scope at 6 1/4 lbs in .177 regulated to 120 bar = 840 fps for 10.8 fpe at 40 yards with a 10.5 pellet have taken coyotes, fox and raccoon, shot placement is everything. CCI subsonic 22lr 1070 fps is 90+ fpe @ 50 yards , CCI 960 quiets 22lr 730 fps is 40+ fpe @ 50 yards and quieter than the PCP.. just can’t get excited about the big bore air rifles 🤷🏻‍♂️. Always looking for new vids from you and the wife. Thanks I’m in the Western U.S. without any regulations on air guns so far OMG they are coming out with 700 + fpe toys.

A great review keep up the good work look forward to the bsa review 👍👍👍

Great video yet again. Enjoyed it - totally! Not my area of airguns, but it surely was interesting. Thumbs up!

Thank you very much for your excellent review. Fabulous as always and extremely informative!

Agree! I have started my own playlist and don’t trust anyone else really.

I have the BSA R10 SE in .177 cal. I have the right handed Walnut version. Iam getting 50 shots per fill. It shoots 10.34 gr. JSB around 900 fps. I absolutely love this rifle. It can still get 820 fps with the JSB 13.43 gr. Monsters. Thanks brother for your excellent review. I think the UK should change the laws to at least 30 ft pounds. This would be ideal for most. 177, or. 22 rifles. Or unlimited for Air Rifles. Put in perspective. A. 22 long rifle powder burner using CCI STINGER bullets gets 190 ft pounds of energy. Most Air Rifles 30 cal. and under, aren't even half that. Times have changed. Better laws will only increase sales. God bless you!!! From the USA!!!👍👍👍😎😎🎯🎯

Personally I agree *but* I can't see this happening in the UK sadly. In some ways we're lucky to have the 12ft/lb in some countries it's terrible, think in Ireland it's 1 joule! It's especially ridiculous in the UK though as the way the certificate system works it's technically easier to get a 2+1 semi-automatic shotgun than a 20ft/lb .177!

Great to hear with such clarity Andy during the intro of your past associations with certain businesses and your previous links with them and the new greater focus toward absolute independence. Hopefully all those sending items for you to review in future will be completely aware of this fact. No holds barred reviews are refreshing to say the least. It was lovely to see your wife taking a slightly more prominent role and shooting in the video also. Perhaps it would be particularly nice Andy to properly introduce her to everyone in the next video, instead of people having to refer to her as Mrs AAR! Your video editing was even more slick than usual and seeing the split screens was very modern. I hope at some point that you make the shift to 4k as that's always the way to go. Exciting times for you both no doubt. Keep up the great work.😃

Hello, I am an American viewer and I am often intrigued with how big of a fan of silencers you are, I rarely hear of aftermarket silencers in my area. I personally shoot only Benjamin air rifles with Redfield optics. I appreciate the high quality videos you produce and thoroughly enjoy watching your videos

Beautiful rifles......lovely review and kudos to Mrs AAR shooting skills...two thumbs up.

Good honest review,i went fac a few years ago and never looked back,i went with a .303 hilite,still stunning but way lighter and with the carbon buddy bottle i can eek out 20 decent shots,my regal has 30 ft lbs and also have a airwolf with 40 ftlb,it was a bit of a tank but took off the heavy 500cc buddy bottle and fitted a best fittings 500cc carbon which transformed the rifle to my go to hunting airgun,i also bought a .25 renegade tactical which i ordered with 60 ftlbs,got it delivered just before they brought out the regulated versions which was a bit silly as the regulator would have gave me another 10 shots 🙁 will maybe get it done at some point.keep up the good work Andy👍

Please do full BSA review thanks for your great work

Really enjoyed this especially the bit on BSA R10 in .177 FAC being good after seeing many people slating it.

Hi Andy very exciting news in the pre video . i,ll be looking forward to all the new content on it's way . Any way back to the said video on your F.A.C collection very nice indeed young man , it would be good to see a video of your full collection including my favs pistols .Thanks for a very interesting informative video .

Without doubt the best Gun Review and Information site in Britain. Equally nice to see you giving BSA a thumbs up as I own a R10TH and my first gun was a BSA Magnum 365 .25 bought in 1987. It is in absolute mint condition but the .177 R10TH is equally amazing. Great channel and keep up the good work.

QUALITY REVIEWS EVERY TIME.

Smashing reviews as always,thank you.

Great video as always - Many thanks

I agree, I have two sub 12ft lb air rifles. First one I bought was a BSA scorpion se Como in 1.77. Second one was going to be the gun I wanted first, which was a Weihrauch 110 again in 1.77. I have a number of issues with the Weihrauch, loss of power, not cycling and firing. And firing by it's self on safety. The BSA no issues, and it's my go to gun. By the way I use H&N Baracuda Match in the BSA and Bisley Magnum in the Weihrauch. I recently tried Hades. Good hitting power but not very accurate, ok for 15 yeard ratting.

Thank you for staying independent and all the very best for the future 👍

nice informative video. thank you.

Thank you Andy for all the info you give us and thank the behinde the sceen mrs AR. Here in Cyprus , we mainly have f.a.c.'s, and Only in .177, so its much appriciated when we get anything regarding f.a.c.'s. I personaly had a steyre lg, a weinrauch hw100 and an hw97, wich i 😥, had to let go when i imigrated to Canada. Im back on the island now and, couldnt be without a pcp, i bought a walther varmint, for its price realy, and am happy with it. Maybe a review on it sometime? Anyway , this was to thank you for your channel as its enjoyed very much. Keep up! Thank you.

I’ve two slots on my FAC it’s not until the last 2 years I’ve seriously considered putting in for it it was granted 3 months ago until fx and slugs came along my options would of just been a basic 30/40ftlb Theoben or impact but now I’m looking at a .22 fx impact and .22 dreamline both running at different speeds

I don't hold a FAC, but that was interesting... And I love the idea of a BSA special!

I too think 18 FPE is fair, we should all start a petition. Also, pistols should be allowed up to 10/12 FPE..
