AEAC Video - NEW AirMaks Caiman X .22 Regulated - AEAC Vlog

Steve what is your take on why air rifles are so much more expensive than powder burners I have only been involved with PCP for about 5 years and I am floored at how expensive most of them are. they are by far my most expensive guns and I own quite a collection

There's 2 main reasons PCPs are more expensive than powder burners. They have WAY more moving parts that must be manufactured and assembled to much tighter tolerances, and the volume of finished product is WAY less. Those few things keep consumer cost high. 

My airguns are still way less money overall though. I'm paying $700-$1,000 for 1,000 rounds of 5.56/.223 vs $50 for that many pellets. Thank goodness for 7.62×39 and .22Lr... those are our go-to practice rounds now, lol. Even they are like .45 & .18 cents a pop now! Ugh
