Kind of off topic, but has anyone seen those handguns that shoot rubber bullets in their ads before videos? The ones that are advertised all over YT? Does anyone know anything about them? It says they’re legal in all 50 states…..
I've been skeptical of the less lethal guns for actual home defense, BUT -this looks like some real progress in the usable power dept. My wife has been asking about less-lethal for herself. We have grand children around here, and here in SoCal, we have a few weirdos that walk by the block once in a while. If this can reliably bust coconuts, it would probably work well on street weirdos -just in case. Plus, it isn't going to over -penetrate walls or result in dangerous ricochets. Thank you so much for your work here -it is important. I'm glad to see your channel growing, as well!
My park has a lot of dogs. Most are well-behaved, but I have a less-lethal launcher just in case one goes after our toddler-- I'm sure my kid will shake off a nylon ball, but not a 180 grain .40 cal FMJ!
@TheShonuff888 yes but you have to remember with these less than lethal weapons you have to be very careful of who you go up against because there are some really crazy people out there and there are people on drugs and sometimes these less than lethal weapons just end up pissing them off to the point where now they will kill you. Personally I would much rather have a 9mm or a 45 Cal. I always worry for the people wielding the less than lethal when they're up against criminals. Stay safe God bless in Jesus name.
I haven't been out here in a bit...it's good to see you again my friend and I'm very happy to see your ok after the storms. I have friends in FL who lost everything....homes, vehicles, etc. so im happy you seem to be ok. It's about time that these companies start producing less lethal launchers that actually have some stopping power! Up until recently these launchers were the equivalent of a bug bite. I was highly considering the Grimburg, but now I'm sold on this!!! Thanks again for another great video.
George!! Great to hear from you again!! Very sorry to hear about your friends! It’s indeed very sad and it’s just becoming worse. As a News cameraman I’m always in the middle of these things (literally, we go where the eye makes landfall every time) and the hardest part is having to report on the total loss that follows these storms. And I’m getting so sick of it! (Hens this channel ahaha) That said, my home has been spared so far, in all these years in Florida. A huge relief as that allows me to go to work without also having to worry about my family. Anyway, that said… did you see this thing? A true pleasant surprise! And apparently it shoots even harder with other kind of ammo! Again, always a pleasure my friend! Thank you
There's a few places in Europe like France and some of the Slavic countries where black powder weapons are unregulated. Talked to a Slavic dude online a few years back and he was telling me that people in his country keep double barrel black powder muzzle loading shotguns as door guns but these launchers seem like a good idea especially for grey area self defense situations and of course places with restrictions on guns which is most places in the world. Good video.
Another excellent video. I love your imaginative and creative intros. The IntruBuster is an excellent launcher for LL home defense. From what I have seen on other channels, I think you could get closer to 50 joules of energy if you used projectiles which are better bore-matched for the launcher. Some other UA-camrs report that the Grimburg Jul V3 projectiles give them results of high 40 joules to over 50 joules. They credit optimum bore matching to their great results. Some other common projectiles gave much lower kinetic energy values. I am providing my comment as food for thought.
Thank you so much Anthony, I truly appreciate your very kind words. Indeed, I used simple nylon lightweight balls for the chrono test - I’m sure I could’ve gotten more out of it with other ammo. I think I saw that same video, made by a NY guy in his office, talking about this gun. He made some very helpful videos. Thanks again
It reminds me a bit of the Tiberius Arms - Tiberius 8 (a paintball pistol), although Mercuryrise have solved the issue that the Tiberius 8 has which is a weird gas and ammo combined magazine which leaks. Mercuryrise might want to consider releasing a 7.5 joule version just for the paintball market as it looks and functions better than most paintball pistols out there and is far more wieldy than carrying something like a Tipx or a T68 Firestorm or something similar.
HAND CANNON? That's quite a claim for a CO2 POS that only delivers 30 Joules! There are many SLINGSHOTS that make well over 150 Joules! Please don't EVER consider using one of these for any kind of self defense. You will lose.

There’s one 68 caliber gun that has a rifled barrel and it’s accuracy shows in its shots. The TRP is highly respected and used pistol used by law enforcement because of the quality and forcefulness, accuracy and reliability of use. So, remember this when choosing a pistol for home defense.

Yet another informative, accurate and 'fun' video. Love the animated Elves in the intro. Creative, imaginative and ON POINT for non-lethal home defense. Personally, I would shoot from a closer distance, say ten to fifteen feet, no more. Should put accurate delivery on target more easily. Smooth bores and round balls (bullets) are well known to curve rather than fly True. Consider using a 'fixed' pistol rest to test valiance in accuracy by avoiding the hand-held approach. Thank You !

Great video as always brother. I was waiting for this one! The Intrubuster is a real hand cannon. Very impressed and pleased with mine. Have a lot of different proyectiles to test in my videos.

Hi my friend! Thank you very much and you make a good point! I did that in my last video, with the watermelon LTL Alfa 1.50 ORANGE [.50 Caliber] Less Than Lethal Defense ua-cam.com/video/D-oLWtUeG4s/v-deo.html Thanks again!
I think that a huge interest in your channel starts out with your cleaver, well written introductions. It was those awesome intros that really caught my initial attention my friend. I've said it before and I'll say it again, you need to compile them in a series of videos. Anyway, regarding IntruBuster beast; I'm glad you mentioned it as a LESS lethal CO2 pistol, because, in effect, it can be a very lethal weapon. That thing is a powerhouse, which makes my Umarex TR50 look like a BB gun in comparison 🥴. Question is, should I upgrade? The way things are going on your channel, I'm gonna end up going broke 😂. Another great video. keep 'em rolling in. 👍
Hahahaha great to hear from you my friend!! And thank you, you make all those hours moving gnomes worth every minute :) Oh man, don’t give me such responsibility! the bad Karma I’m piling up by making people broke because of the addiction I got them into is already to my neck! So I say… buy a GK1 ahahahaha! Big hugs my friend!
Great video, as usual, plenty to learn about the product and you keep it fun and interesting. That IntruBuster looks great, I hope it becomes available in the UK. It looks like they solved most of the design issues of their rival's products such as the Grimburg Gavle with it's weird loading and co2 puncturing method and the S2 with it's sheer bulk and front loading magazine and all without any obvious compromises. Since the barrel is removable, I assume we will see some longer aftermarket barrels which might help with accuracy in the future.
I think so too, new barrels will be coming out sooner than later for this. And thank you so much for your very kind words and for your input! Can’t tell you how much I appreciate it
@@Ijusthopeitsquick We're allowed 11 ft-lb HDR50s, so they could equal that at least. There's also aftermarket kits for Umarex guns that would probably become available for this gun, but they do take the power over the legal limit.
@@vihaanreyansh6244 Unless the UK laws have been relaxed (unlikely), then air pistols are still limited to 6 ft-lb and air rifles to 12 ft-lbs. Here in France the limit is 20 joules for both (and for paintball markers also). I think the UK self defence pistols/revolvers are the German spec (7.5 joule) versions.
Hey man! So nice to hear from you as always! I think if they come out with longer barrels that could really improve accuracy! Also balls are just not the best aerodynamic projectile to shoot. I’ve noticed hehe
I still have my 68 from 1996, Edge catalog. 600-plus FPS firing solid, heavy, hard polyester cannonballs. Used to cut Chicago phone books in half with it! Doesnt work right last time I tried using it. Hope I can fins someone to help with it. It's a first Gen paintball gun souped up for training cops or some shit. Those white ones do the trick. Serious pump-action biz.
I know that exactly, I used one in a paintball training exercise on an Air Force base when I was in the Army. The basic principles at work mean that if any paintball facility around you has a respected armorer, he should be able to troubleshoot, check wear, and tell you what is wrong and what is needed. But insurance liability may prevent him from doing the work and leaving it in that overpowered condition! At least he can order necessary parts for you, and he can help make sure that you don't get ripped-off with substandard components! But I would _really_ check the reputation, see examples of his work, and _don't_ leave your piece there overnight -- burglaries are common, and that thing is almost irreplaceable!
@@AirgunAlley Sigh, yeah - I normally love politics but there's an old curse which goes "may you live in interesting times" and this year's election has gotten TOO interesting for my tastes. >_< But hey, at least it looks like you got off as easy from the hurricane as we did up in Orlando, although I'm guessing you ended up without power for a few days as most of southern Florida went dark despite Duke's best efforts. If you're thinking about shopping for a generator for next year, ignore the solar powered and other gimmick ones - just score a gasoline powered one in the 5200 watt range - that's enough to keep the fridge running, a box AC mounted in the window and a couple of lights and floor fans. You want gasoline instead of natural gas because while natural gas is easier to store and doesn't expire like gasoline, it's far harder to replace/refill after a hurricane, plus, you can't use it to fill your car if it comes down to it. As for the gasoline expiring - what I do is come summer time I start topping off my truck/boat with my generator gasoline and then refilling the containers so that by hurricane season it's all fresh gasoline, thus resulting in no wastage, plus, I'm not dropping a couple of hundred bucks all at once since, instead, I'm simply filling a few tanks at a time with the money I would have used to have filled my truck.
The Gavle is 35-38 Joules. The Intrubuster is 34-50 Joules. The downside is it's only a 6-7 shot launcher, but with so much power you shouldn't need more than 2-3 to drop anyone.
The Gavle 2.0 claims 39 joules. And in my experience (I have 2) is more accurate than this weapon. Anything above 20 joules is getting into the usable range, IMO. And I know over 30 joules is very serious trouble for a human target. Potentially lethal at the usual ranges of self defense encounters, depending on where the target is hit.
@@shadowmihaiuCan't wait for the Solstice to be released. Last we heard it would be 2025 so fingers crossed that we'll see a production model at ShotShow 2025.
Several channels in the community have been posting about this launcher. Some are getting 47 to 50 juuls out of the box. Until it’s had some time to work out any potential kinks, I stick to the Gavle that came in almost twice months ago. Also after getting the Gavle, it may be awhile before the wife lets me order another launcher.
To expensive for me right now but this is impressive. Truly the best fir sel defense right now. Im ginna buy a hdr .68 is cheaper, but this was made with self defense in mind...truly a beautiful weapon
I like it. Almost. If they offer longer barrels I would consider it. The barrels are so easy to remove and install, they must have options. In a close in ,tight space it would really knock the starch out of an aggressor.
little pricey for an airgun but i love it. although it didnt appear all that accuate it was pretty much spot on IF you got used to aiming slightly lower with it... i might purchase one down the road. thanks for the video !
Thanks my man! Well, you might want to get both for your awesome channel! I haven’t tried the Galve yet, but this one was a pleasant surprise. Thanks as always my man
Very interesting video brother. Appreciate the content. Ive been curios about these guns for awhile. I got a shorty gk1 but its NOT less lethal its lethal. Again, great vid
Thanks for this, it's a great demonstration of why I like LTL launchers (if they are powerful enough). Now I saw this launcher mentioned on another channel I was surfing past, and one of the comments noted that this is not a Mercury Rise product, but a white label product from another manufacturer (which name I don't recall). I do like the gun, and am considering a purchase. Though currently happy with my Grimbug Gavle 2.0 (both me and my daughter carry one), which in my experience is definitely more accurate, and claims 39 joules. I especially like this gun's loading and charging which mechanism is a better design than the Gavle.
Yes it’s weird how this gun is being branded under two names. But they’re the same gun, just sold by different retailers. I see that addiction creeping in 😂😂 always wanting the next thing coming out ahaha I never reviewed the Galve, I’ve tried, but haven’t been able yet. Sadly I can’t help with the comparison…. Best of luck to you and your family and thanks again!
Great question!! Probably this one, although they both have their advantages. The torpedo revolver has a huge variety of ammo you can use, versus the balls-only of the IntroBuster. But this one really hits hard…
All I could get my hands on is a compound bow with repeating steel ball launcher. But it's also set at around 33 joules using 40lbs draw weight, shooting 13gram 15mm diameter steel balls. It should deliver similar damage in a larger package. But it has a way longer track barrel and that helps with accuracy. Also a laser sight.
These markers could use a small bit of rifling/twist in the barrels. More of just a twist rifling of some kind like in the barrel of my old Daisy SG22. That would help a bit with accuracy. Or maybe even some hop up spin like with airsoft. Adding something like that shouldn't raise the price all that much. And loading a powder ball followed by the solid projectiles, even though you didn't intentionally do it that is a good idea. Hit an intruder with a pepper ball or two followed up by solids would definitely ruin their day. Especially if you could land a few on the face. Great video!
The mention of them barrels being so poor that the alu balls ruin them kinda seemed not so good.. But. A removable barrel? Hellyea! This one definitely getting then barrel alternatives made in the future (or so I'd personally bet, since the LL industry gotten quite wide thru the recent years). A long, precision made, stainless steel barrel would be damn nice - and then the pistol put into a carbine kit for ultimate coolness..😁😁
Boom! They better be reading this comment and follow suit! Totally agree with you! (I think the the original barrels are mainly made for paintballs, thus the “poor” quality)
@@AirgunAlleyyou can't shoot paintballs at this power, but at the umarex it's the same shit with the stock barrel. A longer barrel makes the accuracy much better at any of them. And also a power increase of course.
The barrel is made from steel or aluminum? If it's steel the aluminum balls are no problem. If it's made from aluminum the steel balls would be a problem and aluminum balls after a while longer.
The launcher shoots at 40 -50 joules out of the box (Unless you have a lemon) with rubber steel, pvc 9.9g, juls, aluminum, just about anything other than the real light plastic balls. I like your testing format and presentation. I think 15 feet (or less), however, is more likely for LL engagement. Thanks for you great videos over the years.
Thank YOU! Yea I might have screwed it up by doing the Chrono test with the light weight nylon balls… but this way at least we have a good idea of the whole power range this gun has
Love all your videos you're amazing. I also live in Florida. Is there anyway you could do a a rating system like 1-10 like the pizza guy like 7.3 9.5, etc. etc. to all your handgun air guns pellet guns, etc. I think that would be a new way for you to help us understand which one's better than the other and could you explain Jules and compare Jules to an actual gun I 30 J is that considered like a 22 bullet just a few things
Hi there, first off thank you so much for your kind words! And also for the very good idea… I’ll definitely look into that! Thanks I’m not sure you’d consider this a video on similar lines, but I made it (and then unlisted because I thought I was shooting one type of vest when it turned out it wasn’t what I thought) - but it gives you an idea of the damage difference between a variety of airguns CO2 AIRGUNS VS TACTICAL VEST ua-cam.com/video/6mUG6w1fnoM/v-deo.html
So myself and DK Spencer have been doing extensive tests with this on our channels. Grimburg JulV3s are the best bore matched. And getting over 50juls This launcher is a beast. Nice testing. 👍👍♾ I love you don’t practice on Human targets

That thing is a powerhouse, which makes my Umarex TR50 look like a BB gun in comparison 🥴. Question is, should I upgrade? The way things are going on your channel, I'm gonna end up going broke 😂. Another great video. keep 'em rolling in. 👍
Hahahaha great to hear from you my friend!! And thank you, you make all those hours moving gnomes worth every minute :)
Oh man, don’t give me such responsibility! the bad Karma I’m piling up by making people broke because of the addiction I got them into is already to my neck!
So I say… buy a GK1 ahahahaha!
Big hugs my friend!
Best video intro ever!
Oh man, THANK YOU!
I missed the videos with these co2 airguns..Nice video as always!
Oh man! You have a lot to catch up on 😜 that was my bread and butter at the beginning of the channel…. And thank you!
Ooo,,,dude.😮
If a firearm can't hit what you're aiming at . We'll it's useless !!!😢
But one good thing, I found your channel and I'm now subscribed 👍👍
Great video, as usual, plenty to learn about the product and you keep it fun and interesting. That IntruBuster looks great, I hope it becomes available in the UK. It looks like they solved most of the design issues of their rival's products such as the Grimburg Gavle with it's weird loading and co2 puncturing method and the S2 with it's sheer bulk and front loading magazine and all without any obvious compromises. Since the barrel is removable, I assume we will see some longer aftermarket barrels which might help with accuracy in the future.
I think so too, new barrels will be coming out sooner than later for this. And thank you so much for your very kind words and for your input! Can’t tell you how much I appreciate it
Yeah that would hurt like a mofo no doubt.
If it shows up in the UK it will be limited to 6 ft-lb or about 200 fps. That would sting, but would it deter?
@@Ijusthopeitsquick We're allowed 11 ft-lb HDR50s, so they could equal that at least. There's also aftermarket kits for Umarex guns that would probably become available for this gun, but they do take the power over the legal limit.
@@vihaanreyansh6244 Unless the UK laws have been relaxed (unlikely), then air pistols are still limited to 6 ft-lb and air rifles to 12 ft-lbs. Here in France the limit is 20 joules for both (and for paintball markers also). I think the UK self defence pistols/revolvers are the German spec (7.5 joule) versions.
Looks great, shoots strong out of the box, love it! About accuracy, maybe some heavier ammo would fly more straight. Great vid as usual. Cheers
Hey man! So nice to hear from you as always! I think if they come out with longer barrels that could really improve accuracy! Also balls are just not the best aerodynamic projectile to shoot. I’ve noticed hehe
Great video as always my friend. Very cool and powerful pistol 😎💥👍
Thank you Maestro!! Hope this makes it to your channel too at some point! 🙏🏽🙌🏼😎
@@AirgunAlley Thank you my friend. I hope so too 😃
This content is so good I love it.
Thank you so much! Truly appreciated
Great job man you're always so entertaining.
Uh oh, Spaghettios! Great review. 🔫
I loved the stop action animation, totally brilliant! 👍 😆
I have a nice pcp rifle, and can have pretty much anything I want in the USA .This gun looks like fun!
That's a neat little thing!
Yessir!! Hope you get to sell some at some point ;)
Damn nice air pistol !
I still have my 68 from 1996, Edge catalog. 600-plus FPS firing solid, heavy, hard polyester cannonballs. Used to cut Chicago phone books in half with it!
Doesnt work right last time I tried using it. Hope I can fins someone to help with it. It's a first Gen paintball gun souped up for training cops or some shit. Those white ones do the trick. Serious pump-action biz.
I know that exactly, I used one in a paintball training exercise on an Air Force base when I was in the Army.
The basic principles at work mean that if any paintball facility around you has a respected armorer, he should be able to troubleshoot, check wear, and tell you what is wrong and what is needed. But insurance liability may prevent him from doing the work and leaving it in that overpowered condition! At least he can order necessary parts for you, and he can help make sure that you don't get ripped-off with substandard components! But I would _really_ check the reputation, see examples of his work, and _don't_ leave your piece there overnight -- burglaries are common, and that thing is almost irreplaceable!
I have gen 3 Lazer tr50 pretty strong
Glad to see you made it through the two hurricanes OK.
Thanks so much Sean!! Man I’ll take a hurricane any day compared to what’s coming: Elections!! 😩
@@AirgunAlley Sigh, yeah - I normally love politics but there's an old curse which goes "may you live in interesting times" and this year's election has gotten TOO interesting for my tastes. >_<
But hey, at least it looks like you got off as easy from the hurricane as we did up in Orlando, although I'm guessing you ended up without power for a few days as most of southern Florida went dark despite Duke's best efforts.
If you're thinking about shopping for a generator for next year, ignore the solar powered and other gimmick ones - just score a gasoline powered one in the 5200 watt range - that's enough to keep the fridge running, a box AC mounted in the window and a couple of lights and floor fans.
You want gasoline instead of natural gas because while natural gas is easier to store and doesn't expire like gasoline, it's far harder to replace/refill after a hurricane, plus, you can't use it to fill your car if it comes down to it.
As for the gasoline expiring - what I do is come summer time I start topping off my truck/boat with my generator gasoline and then refilling the containers so that by hurricane season it's all fresh gasoline, thus resulting in no wastage, plus, I'm not dropping a couple of hundred bucks all at once since, instead, I'm simply filling a few tanks at a time with the money I would have used to have filled my truck.
La mejor pistola para HD, pero en precio, sigue ganando el revólver Umarex. Saludos desde Chile 😃👍🇨🇱
it needs an adjustable hopup system like on an airsoft gun it would help the accuracy a lot.
That may be more Powerful then the Grimburg Gavle. I may have to Purchase one for the House.
I haven’t tried the Grimburg, but I was indeed pleasantly surprised with this one!
The Gavle is 35-38 Joules. The Intrubuster is 34-50 Joules.
The downside is it's only a 6-7 shot launcher, but with so much power you shouldn't need more than 2-3 to drop anyone.
The Gavle 2.0 claims 39 joules. And in my experience (I have 2) is more accurate than this weapon. Anything above 20 joules is getting into the usable range, IMO. And I know over 30 joules is very serious trouble for a human target. Potentially lethal at the usual ranges of self defense encounters, depending on where the target is hit.
@airgunalley how was your second Co2? Did the FPS/joules increase at all?
@@shadowmihaiuCan't wait for the Solstice to be released. Last we heard it would be 2025 so fingers crossed that we'll see a production model at ShotShow 2025.
Love your stop motion work!!! ❤
Your 4th shot hit the same hole 🎯 my friend.
Thanks for the Video👍.
Cheers 🙏
Several channels in the community have been posting about this launcher. Some are getting 47 to 50 juuls out of the box. Until it’s had some time to work out any potential kinks, I stick to the Gavle that came in almost twice months ago. Also after getting the Gavle, it may be awhile before the wife lets me order another launcher.
Thanks for that!
Yes, indeed I’ll be doing more chrono testing with different ammo, here I used very light (2.8g) nylon balls.
So pick up a few extra barrels. Nice!👍
AYYYYeeeee 😂 your intro was hilarious and the gnomes 😂😂
Hahaha thank you!!
Cool
There are some really good first strike style projectiles. I came across the FN303 and it was the gateway to projectiles.
As soon as I saw the Buffalo Trace I was hooked on you video. BT is the best!
To expensive for me right now but this is impressive. Truly the best fir sel defense right now. Im ginna buy a hdr .68 is cheaper, but this was made with self defense in mind...truly a beautiful weapon
I like it. Almost.
If they offer longer barrels I would consider it.
The barrels are so easy to remove and install, they must have options.
In a close in ,tight space it would really knock the starch out of an aggressor.
little pricey for an airgun but i love it. although it didnt appear all that accuate it was pretty much spot on IF you got used to aiming slightly lower with it... i might purchase one down the road. thanks for the video !
Wow, bel bestione come piace a noi!!! Felice di rivederti all' opera, un abbraccione da Stefano!!!
Grazie carissmo!! Come diciamo a Roma, trampo moro! Tra uragani, elezioni e questo canale mi sta 🤯
Ma per i figli si fa tutto!!
THANK YOU ....SP - Brazil ...
Was gonna get the Gavle but after seeing numerous videos on this, think I might go with the Intrubuster and it's 100 bucks cheaper...great review 😎
It was, but they raised the price a hundred dollars this past week.
Thanks my man! Well, you might want to get both for your awesome channel!
I haven’t tried the Galve yet, but this one was a pleasant surprise.
Thanks as always my man
best unboxing ever!!
An excellent video. A total surprise.
Great job nice gun👍
Thank you Michael!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Very interesting video brother. Appreciate the content. Ive been curios about these guns for awhile. I got a shorty gk1 but its NOT less lethal its lethal. Again, great vid
Thank you so much!! Oh yes this def more LL than the GK1 🙌🏼
Thanks for this, it's a great demonstration of why I like LTL launchers (if they are powerful enough). Now I saw this launcher mentioned on another channel I was surfing past, and one of the comments noted that this is not a Mercury Rise product, but a white label product from another manufacturer (which name I don't recall). I do like the gun, and am considering a purchase. Though currently happy with my Grimbug Gavle 2.0 (both me and my daughter carry one), which in my experience is definitely more accurate, and claims 39 joules. I especially like this gun's loading and charging which mechanism is a better design than the Gavle.
Yes it’s weird how this gun is being branded under two names. But they’re the same gun, just sold by different retailers.
I see that addiction creeping in 😂😂 always wanting the next thing coming out ahaha
I never reviewed the Galve, I’ve tried, but haven’t been able yet. Sadly I can’t help with the comparison….
Best of luck to you and your family and thanks again!
If you could only buy one Mercury Rise, would you buy the 50 cal revolver or the 50 cal or 68 cal semi automatics. Thanks. Tampa alley.
Great question!! Probably this one, although they both have their advantages. The torpedo revolver has a huge variety of ammo you can use, versus the balls-only of the IntroBuster.
But this one really hits hard…
I like it. It maybe what I'm looking for! Thank you
Thank you
No, thank YOU!
All I could get my hands on is a compound bow with repeating steel ball launcher. But it's also set at around 33 joules using 40lbs draw weight, shooting 13gram 15mm diameter steel balls. It should deliver similar damage in a larger package. But it has a way longer track barrel and that helps with accuracy. Also a laser sight.
Good round ball accuracy
That thing is pretty badass for being powered by a regular CO2 cartridge, impressive.
Sickk intro
Thank you!!
Bom teste em gelatina balística, obrigado por esclarecer as opções de produtos de co2 e PCP. Continue com seus vídeos.
These markers could use a small bit of rifling/twist in the barrels. More of just a twist rifling of some kind like in the barrel of my old Daisy SG22. That would help a bit with accuracy. Or maybe even some hop up spin like with airsoft. Adding something like that shouldn't raise the price all that much.
And loading a powder ball followed by the solid projectiles, even though you didn't intentionally do it that is a good idea. Hit an intruder with a pepper ball or two followed up by solids would definitely ruin their day. Especially if you could land a few on the face.
Great video!
The mention of them barrels being so poor that the alu balls ruin them kinda seemed not so good.. But. A removable barrel? Hellyea! This one definitely getting then barrel alternatives made in the future (or so I'd personally bet, since the LL industry gotten quite wide thru the recent years). A long, precision made, stainless steel barrel would be damn nice - and then the pistol put into a carbine kit for ultimate coolness..😁😁
Boom! They better be reading this comment and follow suit! Totally agree with you!
(I think the the original barrels are mainly made for paintballs, thus the “poor” quality)
@@AirgunAlleyyou can't shoot paintballs at this power, but at the umarex it's the same shit with the stock barrel. A longer barrel makes the accuracy much better at any of them. And also a power increase of course.
The barrel is made from steel or aluminum? If it's steel the aluminum balls are no problem. If it's made from aluminum the steel balls would be a problem and aluminum balls after a while longer.
The launcher shoots at 40 -50 joules out of the box (Unless you have a lemon) with rubber steel, pvc 9.9g, juls, aluminum, just about anything other than the real light plastic balls. I like your testing format and presentation. I think 15 feet (or less), however, is more likely for LL engagement. Thanks for you great videos over the years.
Thank YOU! Yea I might have screwed it up by doing the Chrono test with the light weight nylon balls… but this way at least we have a good idea of the whole power range this gun has
The gnomes are back! Most entertaining airgun channel on YT.
Thank you so much Keith! Truly appreciate it 🙏🏽
I didn’t know you could really use the ballistic gel. That’s pretty cool.
Dobar video.
🙌🏼🙌🏼
Impressive, bro
Thanks my man
@@AirgunAlley welcome, bro
❤ your videos and im so close to decide which one is going to be my first less lethal gun/🔫
Absolute .
Great channel my paison! You found the home defence 24 PVC coated metal ball in this video is more effective than solid smooth aluminum ball?
Good question! I’m not really sure. But probably the alu balls are better. A lot lighter and yet hard as hell
And thank you!!! 🙏🏽
Veramente molto potente ed è perfetta per la difesa domestica non letale🎉🎉🎉 veramente formidabile 🎉🎉🎉
Plan to buy one.
😊
No way should less lethal equal 500 bucks, that’s straight up outlandish 😂
Love all your videos you're amazing. I also live in Florida. Is there anyway you could do a a rating system like 1-10 like the pizza guy like 7.3 9.5, etc. etc. to all your handgun air guns pellet guns, etc. I think that would be a new way for you to help us understand which one's better than the other and could you explain Jules and compare Jules to an actual gun I 30 J is that considered like a 22 bullet just a few things
Hi there, first off thank you so much for your kind words! And also for the very good idea… I’ll definitely look into that! Thanks
I’m not sure you’d consider this a video on similar lines, but I made it (and then unlisted because I thought I was shooting one type of vest when it turned out it wasn’t what I thought) - but it gives you an idea of the damage difference between a variety of airguns
CO2 AIRGUNS VS TACTICAL VEST
ua-cam.com/video/6mUG6w1fnoM/v-deo.html
I didn't know Hi - Point made BB guns ?
😂🤣😂
Thanks for the video ! Isn't the top metal though?
No secret, the longer the gas piston remains open the more power - less shots. Not short barrel- no rifling.
I doubt it can shoot slugs like the HDR68. Or can it?
That's what I'm wondering
Hi my friend! Sorry for the late reply! No, sadly this only shoots balls. No other shapes…
I have one and with an 8 gram jul v2 hits 382 fps over 50joules.
So myself and DK Spencer have been doing extensive tests with this on our channels. Grimburg JulV3s are the best bore matched. And getting over 50juls
This launcher is a beast. Nice testing. 👍👍♾ I love you don’t practice on Human targets
which do you prefer? This one or the Gavle? Thanks
@@TheJaYSolo I prefer this one. But I don’t think you could go wrong with either
thank you!!
awesome 😀
Thank you!!
Is there adjustable sites on that pistol Very.
Great video. Man
Thank you!!
I like that video. I always wondered about the accuracy of the IntruBuster (Pistelle X-68), from a distance.
Thanks
Thank YOU!
