Part #1 is general information about the rifle and some of my initial thoughts. I also discuss the battery and the charger which has been confusing to some. Part #2 will begin by looking chronograph data and groups at 10 yds, 30 yds, and 50 yds respectively. Keep any eye out for Part #2 in the coming weeks. Until then enjoy this video and feel free to subscribe so you will know when the second part is released. 

Now to hold my breath, as the critics will be out on this one I'm sure. ?

Good review. Now to my question:

I know the gun is eye candy to most, and the traditional platform appeals to many people. (obviously not everyone likes the bull-pup configuration) But other than form and aesthetics, isn't it really the same as the Pulsar ? The shot count is higher only because it's a bottle gun, but it appears that the electronics are pretty much the same. Both feature the Map Compensated Technology, three power levels, programmable interface showing shot count, cylinder pressure, power level, etc. Is my thinking wrong?

2manyAirGunz, This version of the Red Wolf is 45 inches long. I do believe that the HP (high power) version is slightly longer, but I have not seen one in person. As for the scope, I am currently using the Aztec scope and have been doing so for about a year now and feel that it works well for me on the field target range. The scope weighs in at 25 oz. and this does not include the weight of the FX No Limit rings I use. The entire rifle w/ scope comes in at 10.34 lbs, which may seem a little heavy, but it balances very well for off hand shooting.

Scope wheel and pointer come from Scope-Werks in Michigan.

Hope this information helps!

Hawkeye69, I'm not sure of the differences between the electrical components. However, I do know that the Red Wolf's components are based on the Pulsar and AirWolf. From what I understand, there have been some small refinements to the system.

I imagine the electronics have been improved somewhat, but I don't see any significant differences overall. I believe the Air Wolf only had two power levels, but the Pulsar seems totally on par with the Red Wolf, and I understand the new programmer will work with any Daystate computer controlled rifle. It's certainly a nice gun, it just doesn't live up to all of the "groundbreaking" hype when it seems to be no different than a gun that's already available.
Just my opinion...
