Umarex XBG .177 Caliber BB

I know airguns.. this was only 35 bucks.. it looks great.. the barrel moves forward during the trigger pull action which looks weird but it shoots good.. mine shoots down and to tue the left slightly so i just hold up and right because it's fixed sights but the groupings are really good for a little bb gun.. it weighs nearly nothing.. the barrel is steel.. i use only copper plated bb's to be nice to the barrel. the magazine is heavy duty solid metal.. smooth edges too, very smooth, no issues of it tearing your finger nails apart.. 😁 i think the magazine it painted zinc or pot steel.. has no iron though according to the magnet. slide does not move so it has less parts to fail. the backstrap is plastic and opens on a hinge to access the CO2 spot.. the head to the screw is plastic but so far so good. the trigger pull is long and heavy.. it's double action only. probably fits a holster for the Springfield XD. I put two white dots on the rear sight with a "white out pen".. works pretty good. i was shooting in the dark.. plinking cans nicely after some target checking. great little gun at a great price. best for medium sized hands.. has a long obnoxious trigger lol.. it works.. pretty easy to reload the magazine with the bb containers i have but i ordered a little rubber generic bb speed loader in the mail.. those are good to have for this sort of magazine.

In my opinion the best bb gun made, I had mine for 2 years and I used it like every day and it worked great, eventually the seal broke in it tho an this was like 9 months ago, all in all an amazing c02 pistol and is great for whatever you're trying to do whether it's target practice, stopping a pest an or a home intruder. Got a great sight an on a full c02 canister it definitely very powerful it shoots fast asl. Definitely a good pricing for this an would buy again.

Bought the Umarex XBG .177 for my 12 year old grandson for Christmas. I can say that it shoots great and he loves it. It holds 19 BB's per magazine and we are seeing about 7 to 8 magazines per C02 cartridge. It has plenty of power and will knock 12 oz cans off a ledge easily. It looks real and has a metal magazine. My younger grandson which is 8 can shoot it as well. The only negative we can think of is the trigger pull is really long. The sights are nice, easy to see and true. He is having a blast with it. I would recommend this particular model to anyone who wants to teach children how to shoot.

Made of good material it’s pretty loud it’s good for the price love the design feels good in the hand and it weighs 2/1 pounds.

Not the most accurate BB pistol out there but definitely good enough for a basic entry level air gun. A few dabs of bright orange nail polish on the sights made them much more visible. The 19 round metal magazine is a much appreciated convenience and is easy to load. Good for around 25’ but I expect the accuracy to drop off much further than that. Heck of a lot cheaper than sending live rounds down range for those days when you want to practice but don’t feel like heading for your range.

I would have given it more stars. However after using it rather lightly I'd say. Have used 6 co² cartridges total. It will no longer accept co² cartridges? I followed directions putting a drop of oil on the top of the cartrige when changing the cartridges. Bought the same brand cartridges as the BB gun. Unfortunately now it blows the co² cartridges empty. They will no longer seal when changing. The gun lasted less than 2 months. Leaving me with co² cartridges i can't use and more than a thousand BB's left over. The return window past by less than 3 weeks ago. The pistol didn't last 2 months of very light usage. Save your money buy a different brand.

This gun is fantastic and shoots faster than I had anticipated. As you can see from my pictures, I shot at a tree from 40 feet away and the BBs penetrated both the bark and underlying wood. Look and Feel: This gun is not small by any means. With regard to size it is a true-to-life replica. The weight distribution is located mostly in the handle and allows it to rest comfortably in your hand. Although it does have a fairly noticeable plastic feel, the gun still maintains a solid build and can pass as real. Accuracy and Power: I set the gun on a tripod and marked a piece of wood at the point where my sight was aimed. I then shot and marked the point where the BB actually hit in order to measure the drop from different distances. At 40 feet the drop is less than 1/4inch. At 60 feet the drop was measured at 3/4 of an inch. At 80 feet the drop became more prevalent and measured in at a little over 1 and a half inches. At 100 feet the drop was measured as 2 inches, and at that distance the BBs also started to slightly curve with the prevailing wind. I started the test with a full cartridge of CO2. Lifespan of CO2 cartridge size: Overall the C02 cartridges offered a steady 90 shots worth of decently accurate trigger pulls. After that the depletion of air became more evident as each shot started to drop more and more. Overall: 90 decently accurate and powerful shots, 40 lob shots, and 10 shots that travel no more than 10 feet. I recorded an average of 150 shots per CO2 cartridge. Con 1: This is not a quick pour reload gun. The magazine holds 20 BBs and you have to insert them into the clip one by one. I often find myself spending more time reloading than shooting. Con 2: The magazine clip has a tendency to jam. For every 5 magazine loads I would insert I would say 2 of them ended up in a jam. At which point I had to remove the magazine, remove the clogged BB, and reinsert the magazine (sometimes I had to do this 2-3 times until finally the top BB was properly pushed into the chamber).

Decent and inexpensive. Have had this a while now and it's one of only a few C02 that I've owned that doesn't leak. And it is surprisingly accurate with a little practice.
