Most detailed review I've ever seen. You earned a new sub'
Awesome, thank you!
Hammerless valve design is indeed the future for airguns. I Loved my Huben K1 and now I love my Western Rattler 357. I'm very tempted to get the Sidewinder too 😀
My evanix max air 2 is also hammerless. Great semi auto 30 cal that is often ignored. 😎
@@jisskk28 how many shots on a 30 cal with full pressure?
Hi, I have a 22 cal sidewinder and love it, I have 3 more on order, 30 cal compact, 35 cal rattler, 45 rattler soon to come, this has become my fav air rifle!
I have the .25 cal LCS SK-19 and after nearly 4 years I can honestly say it is my favorite and most accurate PCP. It is perfect for hunting and pest control and at 70 FPE with a FX 34 grain pellet shooting at 960 FPS effortlessly and efficiently I can only imagine what improvements have been made on the Rattler and Sidewinder and since the LCS is already amazing there shouldn't be that many improvements honestly. Easy as can be to tune for whatever you chose. Not hard to do maintenance if needed either. Hammerless IMO IS the future of PCPs and the price should come down also in time. 2300$ may seem like a lot but it is a buy once cry once kinda thing. For me...money well spent and it is used on the daily. Semi is enough but full auto does put a smile on everyone's faces. I like the fixed mag. Don't know if I would like a removable mag on this platform. Time will tell.
As owner of the K1 and GK1 i greatly appreciate the attention to safety. Very well done Western
How this only has 39k views is wild, these PCP’s are next level, if they can somehow come down on price I’d get one, but it’s also cool to have a PCP golden goose goal …. Save all those pennies
@Airgunsofarizona404 this is scam account anyone viewing this message this Airguns of Arizona account is trying to do fishing attacks I presume
Fantastic, Fantastic! I will make it known, there's nothing comparable. THANK YOU.
Fantastic review on The Sidewinder, the only nag is I wish you would have put up the shot count on each caliber going full power.
Just received my 25 cal sidewinder Wed. Let me just say this. YOU WONT BE DISAPOINTED WITH THE ACCURACY OR POWER. I wont give away any numbers, but I had to re-set my reg to 130, and turn the power wheel down to keep it under 1000 fps shooting 31 grain pellets and 34 grain slugs. Maybe the elevation makes a difference and I live in North Carolina which is a lower elevation than Arizona but I wasn't expecting the gun to push a 31 grain pellet subsonic out the box, that's why I had to turn the power down. Eight different pellets, and five different slug weights and it was accurate with all.
Wow! Amazing 🎉
That Sidewinder is sweet very interested on purchasing one , is it slug friendly in 25 cal ??
Awesome review and presentation
We were really waiting for this rifle to be produced! Thanks for video bro!
is this air rifle powerful enough for home defense/deer hunting?
@@-jank-willson i am not really sure
In .30 it definitely is but even in .22 15 of those bad boys 1 right after another your going down especially if it's 15 head shots ... Army standard impact lethality is 58 fpe, up from 42 fpe around WWII times ... If you want semi auto home defense try the s45 from aea it's about as powerful as traditional 9mm handgun and costs way less than this gun by way less I mean about 700 bucks out the door
Great video, great gun
Awesome! Talk about Ninja!!!
Ulasan sangat detail untuk unit yang luar biasa👍👍
Thank for helping make mind up for a companion for my LCS SK-19. Don’t know if I will like the removable magazine but hey don’t know till you try. I like the fixed mag tbh…have yet to forget it for sure.Easy to load and quick as is. Simple.
Looking forward to more hammerless designs. As a suburban backyard .22 shooter I have to consider noise. In your opinion, how quiet is the stock .22 and with their moderator? Also, the clip does not look like it is indexed. Does it stop by itself when the clip is empty (or does it continue to fire blank shots)?
As i sit here with my Hatsan flash at just under 30 fpe in .25 cal. My head hangs in shame that I did not save up every darned penny and eat Ramen for 6 months and Buy this masterpeice! You guys are front running this technology!
Bro, you did well the first time around. It just means no early morning coffee, no lunchtime Gatorade, and no Coca-Cola for the trip home. After many spaghetti dinners, the Sidewinder will be yours.
I have a Sidewinder, but... mine's a Schwinn. 😂 🚲
I'm getting the Sidewinder and the Rattler over the next year. Specifically for hog hunting in Texas and coyotes here at my house in Mexico.
@@MexicoAdventurer It will be mine, oh yes!!! Have fun with yours, those are incredible masterpeices of engineering!
@@arsenelupiniii8040 I'm gonna sub so I can see your videos of when you get your Sidewinder. And I'll try to let you know when I've got mine in hand. I'm more than likely getting mine from AOA and having them send it directly to my house in Mexico.
As always, Great review! My invitation still stands for some population control of critters north of Wickenburg. You and your staff are always welcome. (Bring a lot of Rounds)
Will you be running slugs through this as well? Please have a review with slugs.
Thanks Jared!
Awesome reveiw do you know the shot count on the rattler 357 and fpe
Are they coming out with another barrel for the 30 cal and a diff mag for slugs?
Nice! Id love to see a huge magazine of some sore. Belt fed maybe?? . 100 rounds in about 3 seconds would be FUN!
Love it. I would have loved it even more with a longer warranty though…
Facts if you make a good product give it a good warranty otherwise there's cheaper full auto options with better warranties... If the price comes down yea a 1 year warranty isn't bad but if you want damn near 2500 for an air rifle it better be backed up for 2500 dollars worth of use
Can I run it at 300bar consistently though thats the top end of it's useable range?
Awesome PCP rifle! Nice Chat GPT description. Next time include a link to the product silly! -Nate
Senapan yg luar biasa....👍👍👍
Which is the best working and most quiet Moderator for the sidewinder .30?
Nice 😀
As soon as I saw the Titanium mag with a magnetic face stop I thought... This won't be cheap🤔$$$
Looks quite well made indeed.
拍的太好了！good
👍
Great review to bad they don’t make it in .35 thank you
What a beautiful pcp.❤
This looks well machined but is it as good as the Hatsan Blitz with 32rd extended magazine? We really need someone to come up with a bottom fed traditional style magazine for these air rifles. It will make bullpup drop in kit designs a lot easier.
I believe our guy Macabespeed is gonna be the breakthrough for trad magazines, check out his channel!
Đẹp quá tôi thích nó , vì nó được tự động !
I've had a question for some time, never got around to calling AOA.
Those air chambers - do they detach from the rifle, so you can take one to the air source used to refill them?
And, if they do detach, do some users buy more than one so that if/when they run out of air, they can just insert their second chamber fully pressured up?
You can buy a quick connect to be able to exchange the bottles, but I don’t know about any pcp rifles that come with a quick connect bottle.
Most people just buy an extra bottle (like an airsoft or diving bottle) and fill the rifle on the go.
Can you make a magazine with 30 rounds like the hatsan blitz ?
nice
Thanks for the awesome videos.
I'm in the market to buy my first air gun for target shooting and iguanas - I have researched a lot of rifles and wanted your opinion which one you would suggest (FX Impact or Western Sidewinder or Epoch Skout or maybe something different)?
This Sidewinder would do well for Iguana and fast follow up shots. For Competition and Hunting, look at the BRK Ghost as a great option. They are winning competitions and Jessica over @IguanaSolutions loves using her Ghost for iguanas.
I like it sir
Can you run slugs, and if so, how does it handle them?
Did i miss the cost. Very nice gun , good reveiw.
It is about 2500 $ USD. Going with the blitz instead. Macabespeed's channel has an AR frame option, he has really gone through the blitz!
Looks like LCS SK19, what is the big difference ?
hi, does it have a two stage trigger?
Want the 72 caliber made in select fire with a drum magazine made especially for slugs with the power of the Zeus, one can dream right?
I remember seeing a full auto pcp rifle that I believe came out of South Korea about 5 years ago that was banned from import to the U.S. because of the rate of fire.
Man that thing is sweet
Hi, it seems to me that the Wester Sidewinder is top air rifle gun in the world now thanks for showing the video, i just bought my first air gun FX-M3 about 3 months ago i wish i knew the Western Sidewinder before i bought my FX M3. How much this gun cost?.
We accept trades! Give us a call.
@@airgunsofarizona I really love this Sidewinder, and I believe you guys have it in a compact? Anyway, most folks are leaning towards the Blitz, but only because of price point. But G damn! I want this! I try to only buy American made, I also build custom wooden boats and understand how hard it is to beat other countries pricing! Savin my pennies. First time I have ever dreamed about any gun!
Sana all my pcp airgun
would you compare this with FX?
Hi,, im from north of asia,, im realy interesting to have this airgun,, can you advise me please, how to get this one,,
What scope would you put on the compact? I need suggestions
A small scope like the MTC Copperhead is cool. Also Athlon has a few smaller scopes to stay with the compact profile.
What's the .30 cal's shot count on full power? Also, if you'd put on the optional 700cc tank, could you still mount a suppressor (for example, a DonnyFL Yokozuna) using the currently available adapters?
30 shots at full power, which is over 120 fpe. You can add a 700cc bottle and still use a mod with the adapter. Just watch out for the OD on the Airgun mod.
@@airgunsofarizona Ok, thanks.
OD?
How to order
Hi, Great review, I have not shot the one I bought from you yet, but very anxious to. On another note, you are correct about corvettes being not practical, however if you drive the speed limit they get 25 plus MPG, and fun as h… to drive, just like your sidewinder is not practical, but fun to shoot. Who needs either, need and want are 2 different things. Keep up the good work!
Como adquirir uma Sidewinder em Portugal ?? Ou o contacto do exportador.
Cump.
Mantap ❤
Between hatsan blitz and sideminder witch one is better ?
Hands down the Western, but price point on the blitz is hard to beat, especially since you are gonna chew through pellets like a mutha! I would bet Hatsan is reverse engineering this full auto beauty! Hatsan is really good at price point engineering. I just wish we could get the Blitz Bull pup in the states.
Is it possible to purchase and send to Indonesia?
I to know where I can get one
Yes there is another rifle out there that was sooner. The Leshiy 2 has the same removable mag and is semi auto. 😉
Sameone posted "apples to oranges" and then removed the post . . . FYI, it's apples to apples . . .
Leshiy 2 is another great airgun. But...this Sidewinder is full auto too, so back to the apples and oranges! 😉
Is it full auto,,absolutely not
The blitz is full auto with a high capacity mag and a fraction of the price... It doesn't carry the fpe this has on the high end but 60 fpe is more than enough to get the job done and again at a fraction of the price and with a 30 round mag. Is a hammerless tech really worth almost 1500 dollars more if we're getting the same 60 fpe but only 15 shots before having to reload? I mean you shouldn't need 30 rounds to off pests but it's nice to have options 😂
@@airgunsofarizona Leshiy 2 and Sidewinder both shoot from/through the mag without chambering. hens the oranges and oranges. Full auto is more like a gimmic, a "fun switch". Not a serious option because the gun simply needs a second or two for the plenum to fill and get optimal power at the set reg. pressure. Yes it's fun and yes, in that sense it's appels to oranges, but I like to look at the way I would use it, in semi auto shooting through the magazine.
Cool review 👍 is that a steel bottle? 300 bar sounds like that should be a carbon bottle…
It's carbon fiber
Is there any electronics on it? Solenoid or sumthin? iirc Evanix was the first to release a pcp with full auto, it has electronics components.
No electronics. It uses a hammerless valve and they are virtually problem free.
@@airgunsofarizona that's awesome cool if no electronics because Evanix design is just like an airsoft
Do you have a 72 cal. air rifle?
LCS SK-19 rebrand?
Buat satu titik dengan 50 pelet sekali jalan...pasti keren..
Que carabina linda e completa, que pena que no Brasil, aqui tudo fica muito caro por causa de impostos
im from philippines how to avail..
Why no .177 or is it in the making
What type of gas charge does is this gun use?
Very nice video, and a very interesting air rifle. Oh, one other thing. You could use a manicure! Lol! 😜
Loved to own one but the price point is ridiculous. I just checked all the websites that sell this. None of them offer the case as indicated in the video that I can see and the extra mags are $160 if they dropped it to 1500 I might consider it. Also, they should drop the price of the mags at least to $100. I’m not quite sure what the cost of titanium is but it can’t be that much.
.25 Can I reach 1000fps when I play with eggs weighing 2.4 grams or 2.8 grams at a constant pressure of 15?
I also want to know
Cual es el precio de ése rifle
I love it where can I get one like this?
Air guns of Arizona, I just bought one and love it!
You're not the brightest candle on the cake, eh?
Not sure what you mean, I know what it seems like it means, so KMA
@@Deleba333, not sure what you mean, but I think I know what it seems like, so KMA
Sudah belikan senapanya berapa harganya boy?
I was supper stoked to buy this riffle until the last moment when I realized a left handed shooter can't use this gun. The magazine is right where I would put my cheek 😢
HELLO MY NAME IS BRAZIL AND I AM LOOKING FOR A PELLET RIFLE LIKE THIS WITH NON CO2 OR AND AIR TANK, JUST A PELLET RIFLE THAT IS FULL AUTO OR SEMI AUTO. PLEASE SEND ME ANY OF ONE, IT IS FOR MY DAD, HE HAD ONE AND IT WAS STOLEN AND WE WANT TO REPLACE IT AS A SUPRISE WITHOUT HIM KNOWING. AGAIN, PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHERE I CAN FIND ONE. THANK YOU
How much this airgun
I have the blitz thirty which is under a thousand dollars compared to twenty five hundred dollars, This one is more powerful but still that's a lot of money
If you want rapid fire, you should try Hatsan Blitz 😉
I bought one of those and returned it steaming pile of 💩💩! You only get 650 ft per second with the blitz. All I can say is you get what you pay for. I put about 200 rounds through it. Had problems cycling leaked air jammed. Not that accurate either compared to a lot of other air rifles. I haven't tried the sidewinder yet but all the stuff that I'm seeing online they are hitting 950 ft per second. Full auto is flawless. I rather have the 15 rounds of complete accuracy than the 30 rounds of spray and go. The shop that I bought the blitz from tells me one out of five of them get sent back. At least they returned it and gave me a full refund. It might be a cool air gun if it worked, but for me after holding it I was happy to send it back 😂
how much?
So whats the difference between a sidewinder in 25 cal and a rattler 25 cal ???
Msg to myself, I went with the 25 cal sidewinder and I'm glad I did !!! Out the box I was pushing 43 grain slugs @ 1010-1015 fps. Turned reg down to 130 and also the power wheel down and still pushing 43 grain slugs @ 945-950 fps !!! Now have it set to push 27-28 grain pellets @ 975-985 fps. The sidewinder is a beast. Six mags (90 shots) 140 psi left in tank.
Wow
@airgunsofarizona you know what I dislike about this channel? They sell these so they are not going to give you honest reviews though they should.
I sell AEA and do honest reviews on my guns. The fully auto does not ever give you all of your shots. I have the .30 cal and it may give me 5 shots then you have to let off the trigger then press again. I sent it back and they “adjusted “ it and it came back the same. Sad but true.
The positive is I love the trigger on this thing.
4:35 Excuse me, everyone. I have a question. Will there be air leakage at the wheel of this toy?
Holy F***'n S***! $2000.00+ for this rig???? I drive tacks with my Umarex Syrix with open sites because I do pest control in town. The rest of my rigs don't even touch this price point because they are not wall hangers. A Colt M4 is about $1400.00 retail.
I believe the Edgun Leshiy 2 can before the sidewinder and it has a removable mag and is hammerless The would make the Leshiy the first hammerless airgun with a removable mag.
I believe we said "full auto" on that list as well. Not knocking the Leshiy 2. It's a great airgun too.
@@airgunsofarizonanot exactly what was said, but yes if we are talking full auto then this would be the first. Can’t wait till I can get one, but .30 in the short.
Price please?
Price
How much
Awesome but at the price it better be love the fact there's no charging handle just air it up and your reedy to go
Berapa harganya om
Quanto costa un'arma del genere grazie...
Why aren't they selling this in the uk
As long as there’s a hatsan blitz this will never a weapon of choice.
Lol fuck me unreal. Brilliant lads.
I want to have one pl guite

For 2.5 K a secondary feature better be giving me a tuggie.. and then able to clean it up

I bought 2 evanix max air 2 semi auto hammerless air actuated 30 cals for the price of 1 sidewinder. 😂😂 Evanix is on point😎
With 2 removable 7 shot mags. Western airguns isn't the first. People been sleepin on Evanix😂
80ftlbs with 50 gr
Satisfactory Air Rifle, l have seen now!!😂
It's an awesome gun, but my Leshly 2 has removeable magazines. I have three of them. It''s just not full auto. Still fun to shoot.
I have a leshiy2 .25, , I wonder which Ammo and the bar yours run at please?
@@marcverbeke4050it shoots the JSB MK II 33.95 the most accurately. Thats also what Edgun West recommends. It likes the heavier pellets the most. Mine is still factory tuned. I don’t shoot it below 150 BAR
@@airguns_rc ok thanks, I can make more progres with that. I have already replaced the regulator with a huma reg. I 'm ging to shoot the 50 gr altaros with it. Thank you many times, I 'll keep you informed .
Let me know how it goes
Can it shoot slugs?
Pls courier me one of its kind..i really love it😊
