In the world of airgunning, traditional spring and gas piston-powered pellet rifles stand as reliable, time-tested tools for target shooting, pest control, and small game hunting.

Earlier this year our Canex CO2 powered air rifle arrived on the market. While this is a very affordable air rifle, it has a lot going for it. First and foremost, this rifle is powered by 12g CO2.

As the technology of airguns improves, the need for better quality ammo becomes paramount. Umarex’s Brimstone line of airgun ammo meets - and exceeds - that need. Brimstone pellets and slugs are precision crafted to minimize defects that reduce accuracy.

This equates to punching crisp holes in airgun competition targets and also being able to take down game animals more efficiently and ethically.

The Octane air rifle was a well-respected entry into the break-barrel air gun market. It brought solid performance at a price that anyone could afford. Yet some felt like some ergonomic options were sacrificed to get the price down to its $259 price point.

Most of the reviews that I write feature new products from firearms manufacturers. It is rare that I get to go back and spend quality time with the classics. Enough has been written about them that most of what I will say may seem redundant. But the Model 34 is a classic. And since this rifle is new to me, I’m going to assume it might be new to you, too.
