Evanix semi autos aren't a new thing at all. I also firmly believe these or any variety of semi auto won't become super popular until they can group as well as single shot, if I am wrong and they are already at that level then color me impressed, but I have my doubts!
Also wouldn't it be a pain to always have a pellet seated after firing a shot? What if you don't want one seated while the rifle sits between shots...seems like a pita?
Also, semi auttos are only really needed for recreational reasons, if you need a follow up shot as a hunter you should be slapping yourself and not make it common practice..
JMO! I love Evanix and their designs/products/company but I still have gripes with semi-auto pcp's.

Yeah you make a good point Matt. I would like it for quick follow up but on the farm I can shoot hundreds of squirrels in a day during spring time there's so many. But any other day shooting birds and such a semi auto wouldn't be necessary. It has it's place but would be fun.
And no Evanix has made semi autos before but were battery powered and unreliable. These are all air actuated taken from the valve itself and supposed to be extremely reliable. We'll see how they do once people get them!

Yea I noticed the difference from battery to air actuation which is an advantage. I still feel how I feel but these beauties still have their place! Just not for me.

Hopefully their design function and reliability will be superior compared to the FX and Hatsan.

Gotta say, Rick’s looking pretty good these days. Every video I see of him that’s current, I can see the pounds shed off. Anyway, Rick, if you’re out there, good job, and keep it up.
sorry, Chuck, didn’t mean to derail your tread on an awesome gun that I, too, am foaming at the mouth for.

At least I’ll have a Couple more months to save up untill the .30 is available and it will give me time to figure out what scope to use or maybe I’ll try a RDS on it that I have, hope there is a good pellet sale coming up hahaha.

Seems like a wicked gun, hopefully Airgun Source can get these eventually for us Northern folk.

I was waiting for the .30 Rainstorm II to be available again then I seen this Air Speed .30 and thought it would be just plain fun to have and it will go just as good with my Bully .30 and HMx .30 as the Rainstorm II would of and besides a nice squirrel getter it will also be a nice rabbit getter too.

Pretty neat. Maybe after they are on the market for awhile an see some numbers groups & reliability . The circle with the hand describing the groups did not make me feel real good. I am sure it will shoot better with in time with the right energy & pellets. Oh, we will be neat to see all you guys reviews over Winter. Give me something to read & watch. Heck, my first PCP was a Rainstorm & I sold it to a friend years ago & he still uses it.

Been sayin- whoever comes out with a reliable, accurate semi auto that is light on air is going to take over. I thought Hatsan had it in the bullmaster and barrage, but there have been too many cycling issues for me to take the leap. I hope these are better. Exciting that other companies are giving it a go. Sooner or later one will for the bill.
