- Gamo Phox air rifle top up with a stirrup pump. Easier than you might think. The bundled hand pump is well made, easy going and fairly light weight. topping up from 150 to 200 bar.
PCP Air Rifle, Gamo, Air Gun Reviews.
As a rule I’m a die hard springer man but recently bought the Gamo Phox as an introduction to PCPs. I chose this particular one as the reviews are mainly positive and you get everything you need to get started in the package deal, gun, pump, carry case, pellets and scope (I’ve upgraded the scope). Thanks for this good little tutorial, a great talk through and demonstration . 👍
Thanks for watching, I hope you get a lot of fun out of your phox.
I just bought one of these to keep the rabbits, rats, pigeons and squirrels down at our cemetery. Needed something cheap and simple, this got the nod. Seems like a nice kit
Hi, it will do the job and has everything you need.
Thanks for watching.
The foam pad is a nice touch and shows how you take great care of your rifle.😎🇺🇸
Thanks. I am very fond of my Gamo. 😁
Really sorry to hear about your heart condition Look after yourself Really pleased to hear bottle lasts you 18 months Always wondered how good they were Thank you
Thanks, I don't even think about unless it catches me by surprise. Life is for living. 👍
Great video, thanks for showing us newbies. Also I’d go along with your comments about ptfe tape. I was struggling with my pump until I used the tape
Glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for watching.
Superb vid, been looking for 1 like it for a while.thanks.
Glad it's helped someone out. 👍
I thought a pump would be no probs but I'm older than you I will be pricing up a bottle Thanks for that 🙂
A bottle is a much easier option. I have a heart condition and my recovery time isn't great but I can still pump up the pcps manually. A bottle lasts me about 18months.
Great to see a video of the stirrup pump. You could see at the end that the effort was needed to get it over the line. I guess if you didn't push those last few pumps you could still shoot but with less shots? ATB MMMD
You could stop short of the last few pumps and it wouldn't make a huge difference. The trick is to use your body weight and bend your knees, rather than your elbows. That needs a bit more space than I had for the video.
@@RealAirgunAdventures Thanks buddy
my cheep pump £40 gives one shot per pump and about one bar per pump to 250 bar the same effort as pumping up a bike tyre cheaper and more convenient than a bottle i wasn't expecting that. strait arms and drop through bent knees to use body weight especial from 200 bar + so extra body weight helps . so the soprt envolces a little exercise and every 12 foot pounds fired you can say i did that
Vry helpful video.

You're welcome Terry, thanks for watching. 👍
And what better way than interest in air gunning I find it very relaxing but interesting 👍
Excellent
Thanks for watching. 👍
I bought one of these phox today because of your lovely reviews. Now my question is, I'll be shooting in my garden, which is,around 10 meter max what is the best scope for that because I think the one in getting with Phox is too much for this little distance
Hi, I was thinking about making another phox video ax it's been 2 years since the last one. The bundled scope will, I think, do the job at 10 mtrs.
It's certainly worth giving it a try, as it will save you a few bob.
helpful video, just bought a second hamd one. missing the adapter with the two o rings though.
Is that the filling probe? They are widely available as a spare. Even places like ebay and Amazon. I believe the later ones are quick release and the older ones are threaded.
Hello RAA I wondered if you could please clarify if there is an upper limit of the BAR/PSI you can achieve using the hand pump? I note you filled it on here from 150-200BAR but also noted the Gamo Phox can be filled to max of 232BAR (I have heard/seen on other videos stating that 200BAR down to 100Bar is the sweet spot with less of fps spread/curve etc) but just wondered can the Gamo be filled to 232BAR using the hand pump? or does it require divers bottle/ mains compressor to take it over 200BAR up to the 232BAR limit?
Hi, you can keep going. It will do 232 bar, just takes a few more pumps. I'm not sure it's worth though.
Bought the phox setup, cracking gun. When using the pump though I get just over 100bar and the rubber gromet on the gauge blows and dumps all the silicone liquid, any idea why there could be such a pressure build up? Much appreciated
Does the guage on the pump correspond with rifle?
Bit of a late reply but This happened to me with my Gamo pump, I purchased a new gauge, installed it, never had any issues since, easy to replace as well.
A quick question. Why did my black cap come off near the gauge and liquid popped out when I was pumping
The liquid is oil, its an oil filled guage. Someone else had the same problem. Did you get a service kit with your pump?
What is the adapter called please? I have a hand pump and a gamo venari and i cant find a connector bit for my pump
It's just a quick fit adaptor. Most gun shops will have them. The manufacturer is Best Fitting. Hope that helps.
Hay do you you know roughly how many shots you get per fill? Great vids by the way 👍🏻
I get 45 to 50 shots in .22 but I tend to top up early, it's easier 👍
Just thinking , do you think an inline moisture filter would be advantageous when used with a dive bottle? Or , more too the point would it work with one? ..
Divers air is dry air and already filtered. So you won't need to add a moisture trap. If you do there is no moisture to trap. Another advantage of using a tank.
@@RealAirgunAdventures
Cheers , just wondering .. im 62 and a physical wreck .. gonna stick with the bottle , think the Phox package , with the stirrup pump is fantastic though , better suited to a younger man then me though ..
@@markhomer5704 the Gamo Urban and GX40 atr much the same riffle if you have a tank it's a better way to go.
Good video id love a chronograph on it but anyway im going to ask a stupid question now, when you let all that air out did you empty the rifle or was that just lingering in the pump itself because that hissing went on for some time,
Thanks
I just ordered this kit cant wait to find some rats while im bsa super sport is being serviced 😂
It's just the back pressure in the hose. I let it out slowly. I'm told that high-pressure air can enter your body via the skin. Never a good idea.
@RealAirgunAdventures aaahh I see ok that makes sense. One of quick thing are you able to supply a link for that quick release adaptor on your video ? Many thanks for replying
My valve doesn't "click in" like this. It just kind of goes in and moves around. It's got both O rings on it. It's always happened. It's the most unsatisfying connection I've ever felt, and until I saw this video, I thought it was meant to be that way. Any idea why mine won't click in like yours did?
Mine is a good positive fit. I do know that Gamo have changed the probe. Mine is a couole of years old now. I would talk to Gamo, see what they say.
Thanks for watching. 👍
mine is the same, did you ever get any answers to it? Like it's loose to the point where its worrying me.
nothing at all. I can't pump it up.@@Teknosmack91
Next month, I'm planning to buy a Gamo Arrow which doesn't have a regulator.
And this Gamo pump is currently the cheapest one I can find.
Do you think it's better to get a more expensive pump with a water-oil separator included/built-in (like the Hill Mk4) or should I go for the cheaper Gamo pump and couple it with the separator you are using (it will still be cheaper overall by quite a bit)?
Hill pumps are excellent but you do pay a premium. The Gamo pump is very good. I've had mine for well over a year now and no issues I have a couple of pump friendly rifles that I top up with. Personally I would save the money.
@@RealAirgunAdventures Thanks for answering. Yeah, I'm going to go cheap - don't want to end up paying the same or more for the pump :D
Did the pump come with any silicone oil/grease?
@@user-od1yi5iq1k it did and a service pack of o rings and seals. You can also buy a complete seal pack for about fiver.
Hi chaps, new to all this, just bought a phox without a pump, finally got a pump but I hope this isn’t a nutty question but do the pumps work on the upward stroke or the downward or both,, cheers
Hi Steve,
They work on the down stroke. I won't say any more on the subject 😁
Cheers for that my good fellow. Didn't look to bad at all. Would you recommend I get a moisture trap for the phox or not? And also is the moderator supplied with the phox metal or plastic and could you reccomend a replacement for it or is the one supplied sufficient? Once again thanks for the vid and will let you know how I get on when mine arrives. Regards John
Hi John,
The silencer is metal and its pretty good. If you want t to upgrade I think the Weihrauch is as good as any. To be honest the supplied one is more than adequate
@@RealAirgunAdventures cool thank you. Mine should arrive sometime sunday. Keep up the good work. 👍
@@ARPC_jb78 you won't need a moisture trap either. 👍
@@RealAirgunAdventures ok thank you. As soon as I get my phox and get it zeroed in I will let you know how I'm getting on. Cant wait to get down to my permission with it for a spot of rat and rabbit bashing.
Hello, i was just wondering if you know the size of the o-rings on this rifles pump ? Because mine have cracked and I can’t use it anymore, please reply, thank you.
Hi, are you talking about the stirrup pump that's bundled with the riffle? There is a small box with the kit and it has spare o rings and some grease.
This is pretty much what's in the box

@@RealAirgunAdventures great thank you very much !
@@harvey5146 you're welcome.
Hi can you adjust focus to the reticule on these? Ive just bought the bundle.
I'll have a look tomorrow. I haven't got the standard scope on there at the moment. I've been trying out a couple of digital scopes. I'll be glad to get a standard one back on.
@@RealAirgunAdventures ok thanks.
what is the smallest scuba tank i can get for this gun ?
I think you would be looking at a 3 litre cylinder. That's the smallest I've seen. Probably best to check with your gun shop. Thanks for watching.
@RealAirgunAdventures how many times can I refill the gun with 3l ?
@chupacabra7224 my guess is somewhere in the low 30's. Topping up from 100 to 200 bar. So if you live near a gun shop or dive shop, it's probably going to be good for your needs.
@@RealAirgunAdventures thank you so much
New to PCP is it save to take a 1ltr refill tank in a backpack on days shooting is it even legal I need advice
Hi, yes, it's safe and legal. A lot of people carry a bottle with them when shooting. Some rifles have plenty of air on board and don't require a top up. Hope that helps.
@@RealAirgunAdventures thank you 👍👍👍 I just got a gamo phox 👍
@@chippsloop1482 Great rifle, you'll be enjoying that for years to come. 👍
@chippsloop1482 did you buy the male adaptor like on the video
How did u put the bipod on
You just need to screw in a sling swivel. If you take the action out, there is a moulded screw housing inside. Drill through from the inside (3mm drill). Most Harris style bipod fit.
@Real Airgun Adventures thanks buddy 👍
Hi.
I have this set up and absolutely love it but I am having an issue with the pump. When I am pumping, I get to just shy of 200 bar and suddenly the little black plug on the pressure gauge blows out and starts leaving the glycerin / silicone oil that's in side the gauge. Have you ever had an issue with this? Can it still be used without the plug and fluid or should I look at returning it?
Thanks and great video BTW
Hi,
That needs to go back. Sounds like a faulty pump. It you carry on using it it will eventually fail. Gamo seem to have made some changes, the filling probe is different now and maybe the pump is too. Sorry its not better news.
Thanks for the reply! I have just tried it now and managed to pump it up to 2 bar without the plug in and managed it fine. But if you think it's going to eventually fail then I will take it back ASAP. Thanks for the advise, much appreciated.
I had my rifle this week and my pump is doing the same! Did you return it?
@@jordanclabby5247 yes I returned it. Apparently they had a few come back that was doing the same thing
@@tommybobbins thanks mate I’ll return mine aswell then
What is that extension bit you plug into the rifle called I need to buy one
It's a moisture trap. You can pick one up at your local gun shop or online. They are all much the same.
@@RealAirgunAdventures you see the gold part you push into the air part of the gun behind it there a screw part below it what do you screw that into because on my pump there no screw I can screw into
@@spiritualdylz Hi, it this on a new pump?
@@RealAirgunAdventures yes
@@RealAirgunAdventures what pump do you have can you tell me
Hi I’m struggling to pump the phox up I’ve read on a forum that I need a different connection on the pump but not sure exactly what it is I need any help is much appreciated
Hi, what's the issue? Hard to pump, Air not going in, Air leaking at the pump/probe connection? You should be able to charge with the supplied connections. I swapped mine for quick release but that was just convenience. Let me know what's up and I'll try to help.
@Real Airgun Adventures Many thanks for replying yes air not going in. the dial on the pump not even registering any air going in. I’ve pumped for quite a while the dial on the gun did go up very slightly but for all the effort the dial hardly moved.
@@metalheadz07 OK, the probe has a 1/8" bsp thread as does the pump hose. Once you remove the quick connector (supplied with the pump) the probe will screw straight in. Usually it will seal without any help but it has to be really tight. If it isn't sealed properly, you'll be looseing the air before it gets to the rifle. So you can pump like mad and get nowhere. Does that make sense? The answer is a few turns of ptfe tape (plumbers tape), on the probe thread. Although a nip up with good spanners may sort it. Hope that's helpful. You can test the joint with a little bit of soapy water on a brush.
@@RealAirgunAdventures that’s Brilliant Mate thank you so much I think maybe I just need to try harder also maybe use the ptfe tape like you suggest. But thank you so much again for all your help with this Take Care I will drop you a message to update once rifle is filled.
Just to add if I remove the gold quick connector it leaves me with a threaded part but the probe doesn’t have any thread on at all just a straight part similar to the end that goes into the gun.I need to have the quick connector on for the probe to fit into the pump. Hope I’m doing everything correct and not being stupid. Many thanks again
A bit OT. Gamo fox kit or Rotex RM8 kit? Money not massively an object.
I think it depends on what you plan to use it for. The phox is a good accurate, robust, knock about rifle. The RM8 more one to be cared for. The synthetic stock version is good, they are a little heavy though. If your going to be doing pest control, the phox is ideal. For more targets, plinking and the occassional rat, the RM8.
@@RealAirgunAdventures More the former, than the latter. I was really thinking of bull pups but can't seem to find any packages.
@@roop298 have you looked the Hatsan flashpup? They are really good value. You could put your own package together. Worth thinking about.
@@RealAirgunAdventures Hmm, might do. I'm not in any hurry. Tnx for the advice.
@@roop298 no problem. The Kral Puncher np02 is a great compromise. Tons of air on board, shoots well and looks good. Comes in a hard case.
Hi guys, just purchased a Gamo phox in kit form so comes with the stirrup pump. Question rifle is about 100 bar and when I try to pump air after about 5 pumps I am unable to pump any more with out really putting all my weight onto even then pressure not increasing really. The ease of the pump in the video is nothing like mine. What am doing wrong?
Sounds as if the air isn't going in, just pressurising the hose. If your guage is reading 100 bar the first 25 to 30 pumps should be fairly easy. Check the connection both ends. Let me know if that helps.
@@RealAirgunAdventures plenty of air in hose when I disconnect it. Air conning out of end of pump and looks clear so does the tiny hole on rifle where you connect pump. First time using a PCP and don’t want t knacker anything by forcing it. When you insert the hose into the rifle does it matter if the hole on the pump is in align with the tiny hole on the rifle? I wouldn’t have thought so as the air should still pump. Thanks for your help
@@amillett6863 shouldn't make any difference. Is it going all the way home?
@@RealAirgunAdventures yes pushes in fully
@@amillett6863 I think I would give it a twist and if aligning the holes helps. Bit of a long shot but worth a go. Just out of interest does the guage on the rifle correspond with guage on the pump?
Real airgun adventures,, don't suppose you could put a link to the moisture trap in the comments or description can you, I've looked all over..??? Thanks mate.
