Yeah!! Been waiting for this video.
This X-FIVE is one of my favorite ASP's - along with the M17.
I absolutely also love the fully adjustable rear sight on this one. The pistol is big and weighty. The cartridge cam lever system is awesome for being so handy and quick. Those plastic stickmags are a bit "cheap" in my taste - but it is nice that the P320 ASP's mag also fits and work with this X5. I oughta buy a 2-pack of extra mags for my X5.
Not a fan of the slide movement sound though (same goes with the P226 ASP).. Woulda myself also liked a cut out ejection port in the slide. And never really liked it when the slide spring is around the barrel. Often too little of space underneath the hood for a decent spring around the barrel - and then the slide gets sloppy movement because of a weak spring and no decent slide rails (only short rails in the back, front of slide loosely around the barrel). Better off with a guide rod and a decent spring - as the M17 has..
And now.. If only this particular X-Five design/model would be manufactured as a steelBB version with a full size mag... Wow! I'd be there out in line for one! The old Cybergun BB shooter is one of my all-time favorites - but this one would definitely upgrade the looks..😁
Outstanding feedback!!! I agree 100% with everything you stated. I would like to one day design my own Co2 pellet pistol. Do you like 1911's? I think I have almost every model made. I will feature them in the future. I hope all is well!!👍
@@AirgunDetectives Never really were into 1911s... until I bought one (UX Colt M45 CQBP Rail Gun)!😂 Just had to buy at least one - and it was not a bad decision. No wonder 1911s are much sold. The Tanfoglio Witness probably was a top-seller at some point - or that is at least the impression I have gotten..
Hope you get to design your own co2 pellet pistol someday. I bet new ideas oughta be welcome. As of now I am very interested to get to see how the new Walther PPQ blowback pellet pistol will perform. Blowback, belt, fullsize mag... Great expectations, to say the least. The mag at least looks solid in the pics. Just love how well the PPQ sits in the hand - as well as the HK VP9 I'd say. Great ergonomics on those grips imo..
All good at the homefront, thank you for asking!
Opened up my cheap (€20) ASG STI M1911 Classic 6mm airsoft spring pistol the other day.. Just for the interest of what is inside etc. Never really used it anyways. Own several co2 airsoft pistols nowadays. But the ASG 1911 is my very first airsoft pistol and bought just for cheap fun back in the days..
After getting the slide halves apart, the slide spring shot out of it. Noticed it's familiar shape and size. Decided to make a small test since just spendin time in my storage room.
How about testing if it fits over the barrel of the Sig Sauer X5 ASP? And does the slide go back on after that? ..Yes, it did!! The 1911's spring first looked a bit short for the X5 barrel since not being as long as the barrel - but the short space for the spring within the slide made quite the perfect fit.
So. If the og Sig X5 slidespring ever gets effed up, or just gets tired - I know now where from to take a stiffer, unmodified (not pulled longer while effin up the tension abilities) spring that fits the X5 perfectly..
@@AirgunDetectivesI love 1911a broo
Another really good review. Thanks
Thank you for watching!!👍
😎👍🏻 good review , cool eyeglass camera 🎥
Been wanting to buy this, looking forward to your take on this beautiful gun:)
Not a bad gun for the price! It is a heavy one and it feels very solid. 👍😉
@@AirgunDetectives BTW, what do you recommend to go SIG P226 or X-Five version of it? Or maybe anything better with real blow back, pellets and with real feeling?
Just got mine. Only got to shoot a 20 mag before leaving for work. Doesn’t seem as powerful as my cheap Gamo p-85. And how come these manufacturers can’t figure out how to lock back the slide after last shot. I’ve only seen BB guns do it.
So true...I think a lot of the airgun manufacturers have inexperienced technical staff. I could make a list a mile long on easy upgrades that would drastically improve their products. I don't think they listen to the guys with real experience. I appreciate you tuning in and Happy Shooting!👍🏻😉
Just got mines love it 😀
Enjoy!! Thanks for sharing!! :)
Greetings from England , ive just bought the X Five ... so your review was wonderful to watch . full of great imformation . thank you for your work . its 2021 and this pistol costs around £ 210 new ....... Cheers Simon
Thank you for watching 👍
@@AirgunDetectives , no worries . enjoy today
Thanks for the review. Very informative as always and of great interest to myself in the UK where CO2 pistols are the closest most of of us can get to firing the real thing! I've had the X-Five ASP for a few years now and after having put 1000's of pellets through it, began suffering far more frequent jamming. The cause was wear in the magazine, such that the pellets in the chain weren't perfectly concentric with the barrel when the CO2 was released to fire. This caused the edge of the pellet to hit the edge of the barrel and jam. Using a wooden dowel down the barrel to push the pellet back into the chain allows the magazine to be released and the pellet inspected. Most of the time, the head will have a crescent imprint on it from where it hit the end edge of the barrel and will be bent over to one side relative to the skirt. To confirm the cause, I removed the CO2 from the gun and loaded the magazine and peered down the barrel with a torch whilst cycling the trigger. You can then see that some of the openings in the chain don't rotate into perfect alignment with the barrel. It might not be every one though so check all 20 - I had 2 out of 20 that were particularly bad, but others were starting to also loose alignment as well. I have since bought a twin pack of new magazines and although they worked better than my old one out of the box, they weren't perfect. On disassembly, I found the spring loaded clamp at the top which holds the chain in position to be tight on one of them due to a bit of plastic flashing that hadn't been removed. Once this was sorted it moved freely to hold the chain in the firing position. As others have stated, a bit of lubricant on the chain does help, but I feel the most important and best area for this is on the top of the central divider tab that the chains passes over as it turns to come back around after the pellet has been fired. The spring loaded clamp effectively pushes each link against this tab, so the top edge of this wears away over time causing the barrel alignment issues. What I do now is put a drop of Pellgun oil on this edge prior to every shooting session and it makes for a much smoother trigger action and so far, zero jamming even with rapid fire. Accuracy has also improved as the pellets are no longer being damaged due to minor barrel misalignment. If you own this gun and are having problems with jamming then hopefully the above will be of some use. Granted, on a brand new gun this shouldn't be necessary, but it's a simple check to at least look down the barrel (safely!) to see if it is due to magazine chain misalignment. You can then decide if you want to return it if it's recently been bought with the benefit of being able to argue what the problem is, or, when outside of the warranty period, do as I have and tinker with the magazine to try and sort it yourself. I suspect all this also applies to Sig Sauer's other ASP models the P320 and M17 as they share the same chain magazine system. When it does work flawlessly, the X-Five ASP is a great gun and awesome fun! Happy shooting!
David, I appreciate you watching and thank you for the detailed comments. You may want to see if you can add a Chiappa Rhino to your collection! 😉👍🏻
Estupenda pistola para lo que a mí me gusta, el plinking. Y dispara super bien. Saludos desde Sevilla, España
Hello again brother. Not joking this is probably my 4th time watching this video this week. Got the SIG P320 M17 and didnt like how inaccurate it was but loved everything else about it. Just packed it to return it. Then picked up the P226 based on your 4 stars and absolutely love everything about it, would be nice to see the cut outs like you mentioned but its definitely solid. I cant find the X-Five anywhere so I will have to wait till after the holidays. Quick Question, what do you use for that target practice setup? Is that customer made or some kind of old BBQ Grill ? Just curious. Many thanks for your reviews and God bless! Be safe
Hey Buddy...I built that from the ground up. Watch this video and at the end I give you a close up :)
ua-cam.com/video/aKK2dx_skoQ/v-deo.html
Very high quality video! Elevation is a big problem for me in handguns as I learned to shoot when the bullseye was balanced on top of the front sight ("Target"), not the Combat superimposition sight picture Glock rolled in. Now I shoot low. I have a TX22 with comp kit and this is only firearm available for reasons that became obvious. Dial up the rear sight and the hammering of the slide causes it to roll back down. I fixed this with epoxy. My new Bersa 380 shoots low but I have tall suppressor/co-witness sights on the way. Destroyed the predecessor to this airgun trying to raise the sights. Filing the front sight is ineffective with 3 white dots. The X-5 should be great. Sig reps will be at the Gun Club this weekend where Susan will ask questions about her new Macro 9mm. I'll put in a good word for the Airgun Detective.
Thanks for the videos. Out of the Sigs you reviewed which would you say is the most powerful and accurate. P226,p320 m17 etc. Also heard Gamo pt-85 was good. Trying to decide from one of these as to which is most powerful and accurate to get. Thanks man
Just went out & bought my'self a black version, a bit heavy, but the price was right at £155. Thank you for a very good Review.
Very solid gun!😉
Which seller I’m in the UK and I’m looking at this or the Sig Saver P320
@@philipg7929 Hi Phil, You may have already purchased but in case this still helps you, the best in the UK in my opinion is www.sportsguns.co.uk
Fantastic prices and good service.
I love how you load co2 on these guns.
Do you recommend this or M17 ASP? They are very very similar.
Amazing review. BTW, what do you recommend to go SIG P226 or X-Five version of it?
P226 is one of my all-time favorites😉👍🏻
Should i buy XFive or P226. What is your opinion?
Yeah glad to hear 4/1/4🌟I brought one, shoot 117 🌬luv it!!!🤠🤔💪
I think the Daisy handgun 408 The power line Is the best video you Ever Did. I' like it Because it Have a lot of power I think you should Gave it 5 stars
I would like to see a video on the sig sauer P320 being that I haven't seen you do one before. I'm thinking about getting one what do you think about this version
I have one...not a huge fan. 30 round magazine is excessive. The gun cools down once you get to 15 rounds and the rest of the rounds are useless until the co2 warms up. The X5 is a better choice and it has adjustable sights. I'll review P320 one of these days.
I'd get the P250 instead - if found one. Uses the 8+8rd rotary flipstickmagazines like the P226. I have yet to get one. The P320 model been often suffering from jamming - and the 30 rounds is a bit much. But the P320 do shoot good when it works.
do you ever go back and do another chrono after a couple cartridges have been run through, on a few occasions i've seen the FPS on CO2 guns increase by as much as 70 points after all the manufacturing oils and crap have been blown through, usually 60-100 rounds......
Yes...I have chrono'd them out of the box and we'll beyond. Ambient temperature impacts the velocity the greatest. That's why I love summer time to shoot the Co2's.
Where did you get the diopter clip on sight?
Have been looking for years.
Sir your channel is very informative and excellent for gun enthusiast like me. I have some Co2 guns like CP 88, CP 99 Si sauer X 5, Dan Wesson 2.5 inch and 4 inch, Beretta 92 Fs, Beretta PX4 Storm etc. What I want to know is that how far these guns can shoot accurately, look forward to your views, Cheers!
Thank you for your comments. Those pistols are all designed for 10 meter shooting, however I shoot soda cans at 20-25 yards. It takes a little bit of skill to adjust the arch. But it makes for a fun contest. I will demonstrate that in a video. 😉👍
Thanks for your views, will wait for the video, would be great to have an incisive insight into distance vs accuracy for Co2 pistols/revolvers (particularly pellet versions), Have a great weekend Cheers!
Since I did not like the accuracy of RWS R10 Match 8.2 grain .177 pellet so I just ordered Gamo Air Gun Pellets PBA Raptor. I hope they will be more accurate and effective on Muscovy ducks. I was at the range with a 9mm Glock and had very tight groups 3 of 5 each time on top of each other. So it’s not me, it’s the pellet gun
Which is the most powerful pellet Pistol nowadays?? Nice review!!!
A brand new one never been shot before
Zoraki HP-01 Ultra
Just brought this
Hi there can the x5 take a silencer ?
Hi, thanks for your vidéos i'm watching from france and they are very interesting and fun to watch, I actually want to buy à sig sauer pellet gun for shooting in my garden, please tell me which one is the Best for you between the p226 navy and the xfive?
I like the P226. It has a really nice trigger and a proven magazine 😉👍🏻
Your a pretty good shot
We all have our moments 😉👍
I have heard the gun jams a lot is that true? Didn’t hear you say anything about it jamming?
Hello there
Is the feeling of recoil strong?
No...its is nice but not strong!
Three questions... 1) Is there an X-Six ASP? 2) Where do you get the X-Five in silver? 3) Which do you prefer, SS X-Five or Barra 191? These two are in my top picks for my next purchase and im trying to decide which one.🤔
How strong is it? Joules
The price of these in 2023 in the UK are about £215 (about 190 dollars!). I like the chrome version.
3 years later:
I finally managed to obtain one piece and I’m not really happy with Finish on it,bad paint spots on the slide and mag when ejected pops open.. I don’t know if that’s a feature or bad magazine but I silicone lubed everything, it works ok,and you definitely have to adjust sights.It’s not bad gun but eats CO2 like mad 😡 3 clips and Game Over…
Do I recommend it? Yes..BTW it’s Full Metal so it’s Heavy…
Are there any hard tip pellets this piece can cycle reliably? I suppose the lethals are too big for it, what about the hornets?
No...too long...these magazines are not setup for those style pellets. Thanks for tuning in 👍🏻
@@AirgunDetectives Gotcha! Really enjoying your channel, specially the video where you compared the three DW 715's.
Absolutely grade A content, much regards and respect from the other side of the world!
Hello From France & Thank s' for all this Vidéos ..!
In the beginen of this Vidéo , in the Sport Club , is it Clint Eastwood just rear ..??
Hits harder with lead pellets too!
What gun oil do you recommend
Any synthetic is good. You want something that will not harm the rubber seals.
I can't decide between the X five and the m17 HELP MMEEEEE...
I really want one of these but for some reason the grip is putting me off. It would be much better if it was fully stippled.
What's the most accurate pistol you have tested, that has a full-length blow back?
BB or Pellet?
@@AirgunDetectives I don't mind as long as it's the most accurate. 😊
Pity the ejection port is not cut out. Total deal breaker for my collection.
Just a question , can this gun harm human beings too or kill them if they get it in the head. And can it kill lizards ?
Beretta , way better. i told you how to get rid of writing on Beretta slide in other video
Jams Jams and more Jams! 😢
Do not buy this gun until manufacture fixes stuck pellet issue.
Mine keeps on jamming. I have to shove a stick down the barrel to push back stuck pellets about two times a magazine.
I think you may have gotten a lemon. I have about 500 rounds through mine with no issues.
@@AirgunDetectives Thank you for replying.
I have the same issue as on this video with my X5.
ua-cam.com/video/BDlcEHzMdmM/v-deo.html
@@JanBerges is it too late to return it? My only other question is does different pellets make any difference?
@@AirgunDetectives As mentioned video showed, I have switched to flat nose instead of super dome.
--I have made sure a fresh CO2 cartridge is installed, it malfunctions on first mag.
--I bought the two extra mag kit, issue happens on all the mags.
I am contacting Pyramid Air support.
I really wish this issue gets resolved, its a great piece and I do have other models from same manufacturer that have been working accordingly.
Thank you for your videos.
@@JanBerges don't let that go...If you have to go directly though SIg!!
The 12 gram co2 system is a deeply flawed system. Although I do own 3 guns which use co2 . What ever happened to the 9 gram refillable co2 ?
Unfortunately you can't get this gun ANYWHERE. Might as well not exist.
You can make a pre-order it looks like it should be around by the end of the month.
@@AirgunDetectives This gun has been out for awhile? What's with the shortage? They weren't making guns because of the DemPanic?
@@slapaleftyhard6231 not sure...maybe it's a flow over from the firearms record sales? 😉
I bought this gun today
