I get asked all the time what my favorite guns are? Truth is it changes from time to time but I still keep coming back to these guns over and over again, here are my top 10 Airguns. But this does not mean these are the only guns I like and you never know, I may change the list from time to time...
A quick heads up for all our Canada Replica Airguns Store Customers. We just got in a bunch more Umarex products so if you have been waiting on something to come back in stock it may just be waiting for you... Including the very popular Umarex Steel Force BB Machine gun.
As promised I did a redo of my Original Chronograph Test for my Pedersoli Derringer Guardian #11 4.5mm .177 Pellet Pistol. The first time around I just could not get my Chronograph to read in the poor lighting I had going on that day. I spent a fair bit of time doing some testing with my Chronograph since it is that time of year when the lighting is poor and determined that I need to use the white defusing panels as it seems that my roofline and the low light are playing havoc with the Chronograph readings.
Once I sorted this all out my Chronograph worked perfectly and I was able to get some readings for you with my Pedersoli Derringer Guardian #11 4.5mm .177 Pellet Pistol. As I assumed I did not get much over 350 fps. I also got a lot of variation in the fps, most likely due to the fact that I had to roll down the pellets a bit on the backside in order to feed them in the barrel from front to back, some pellets where tight and some where a bit looser, the looser ones seemed to shoot a bit faster as less of the pressure may have escaped out the back where the primer was situated.
I wanted to let all our Canada Store Customers know we recently received an order of Umarex and Cybergun products!
It's a bird, it's a plan, no wait... It's a pellet gun, no it's a cap gun, or is it a blank gun or maybe it's a real gun? Well it shoots lead bullets out of the barrel using gun powder so who really know's what we should call it? At least here in Canada you don't need a license to buy or own the Pedersoli Derringer Guardian #11 4.5mm .177 Pellet Pistol so that's a good thing :)
If you have not already watched my Table Top Review for the Pedersoli Derringer Guardian #11 4.5mm .177 Pellet Pistol, make sure to do so to find out a bit more info on it since I don't go over too much in this Field Test Shooting Review.
So on with the Field Test Shooting Review results... Right off the top, I have no Chronograph test result, try as I did I could not get my Chronograph to read the pellet speed in the rather low light situation I had today, even with a bunch of added extra lights :( I would say off hand that it was shooting somewhere in the 350-450 fps range and when I do get a brighter day I will pop outside and shoot a couple rounds off and post the updated info here for you all, so check back in a bit if this interests you.
What I can tell you for sure is how this gun shot in terms of accuracy. I was expecting to spray pellets all over the target because there is no back sight on the Pedersoli Derringer Guardian #11 4.5mm .177 Pellet Pistol, there is just a post sight up front. I was not even sure if I was going to get all the pellets on the paper. I even setup my target at the 20 foot mark just to be safe and as per usual I was using a semi-rested position by placing a sand bag to rest my hands on and then sitting on my knees in the back, pretty stable all around.
I started off the target test by aiming dead center but quickly found that I was shooting about 6 inches high, so my next 5 shots I aimed 6 inches below the bullseye and low and behold 4 out of 5 of the shots landed within 1.5 inches of each other. So I guess having a rear sight is over rated! If you can figure this gun out, the rifled barrel will direct each pellet straight and true so I think it really comes down to knowing how to line up the front sight with an imaginary rear sight and don't try to shoot really small targets far away. Once you get used to where to point the Pedersoli Derringer Guardian #11 4.5mm .177 Pellet Pistol, you should easily be able to hit a pop can out to 20-30 feet with no problems.
Of course you have to reload this pistol before each shot which consists of cocking the hammer, placing a pellet in the front of the barrel and pushing it to the back with the loading ram rod and then positioning a #11 percussion cap on the primer nipple. Not a rapid fire gun at all but you do appreciate each shot considering the work involved. I also found pre-rolling the back side off my pellets helped to reduce the rear diameter so that the pellets loaded into the barrel much easier. You may have to blow out some residue between each shot which is not something I would recommend with most guns but it's very clear that this pistol is safe since in order to see the barrel obstruction there would be no percussion cap loaded onto the gun.
The Pedersoli Derringer Guardian #11 4.5mm .177 Pellet Pistol is a very unique pellet pistol and actually kind of fun to shoot since it involves a bit of work for each shot and of course some hands on time to figure out exactly how and where to point it to get accurate target results.
Make sure to watch my second Chronograph Test where I was able to get some readings for you!
I wanted to let all our Canada customers know that if you place your order by December 16th, we will get your order to you by the 24th. Of course if Canada Post screws up then this is outside of our control.
For our US customers we of course will do our very best to get your orders to you as quickly as possible during this holiday season.
What can I say, most places are jack'n up their prices and we seem to keep lowering them!
Now I know some of you are going to say, "why are these guns so much lower cost in the US than in Canada?" You can blame that one on the money grabbers along the way when we have to ship and import many products from the US to Canada. In fact our supplier is exactly the same for all the Cybergun products in both Canada and the US, it just costs a lot more for us to land them here in Canada , and you guessed it, we pass that extra cost right back to you our beloved Canadian customers :)
So back to the good news for our US customers...
If you have not already picked up one of these amazing Replica CO2 Blowback BB pistols then make sure to do so now that they are at an all time low price point:

I wanted to share some information about our Canada Replica Airguns Store that some of you may not be aware of, and that I feel sets us apart from our competition.
We ship from within Canada to ALL Parts of Canada. So there is no chance of your order getting confiscated at the boarder or having a bunch of over inflated duties, brokerage fees and taxes added to your order.
We will match any price from any other Canadian based resellers. This is true on all Canadian based online and brick and mortar retails stores and applies to in-stock items.
We recently dropped our prices and constantly look to have the most competitive pricing period! We do not want to be undersold! We want your business, plain and simple!
Our regular shipping & handling cost has now been lowered to $15. And this even means that sometimes the shipping costs us more to ship then our actual shipping cost to you! So we eat the difference!
We now offer express shipping for $35 for when you need it now! You asked for faster shipping and we made it happen!
Our 30 Day Warranty starts when you get the product, not when you buy it. You ship us your defective item and we will replace it. This of course applies to Manufacturers defects only, but if you got a lemon then why ship the lemon back to you again?
We are one of the only Online store in Canada that brings you all these informative videos and help with your pre sales questions and needs.

The deadline for uploading your Halloween Costume Contest Videos has concluded (end of day October 31st), so now it's time to figure out who has the best costume with incorporated weapon. To make things fair, I'm delaying the announcement of the winner till Friday in order to let the late entries catch up a bit and also so I can remind everyone to checkout the Halloween Costume Contest Playlist I setup that has 8 videos added (not including my Wolverine Costume).
What I would like everyone to do is please watch each video and then pick your top three Halloween Costumes and give them a thumbs up, the video with the most thumbs up will be the winner, thumbs down will not be taken into consideration.
Good luck to everyone who took part in this Halloween Costume Contest, to show my appreciation I am going to do a bit of a shout out to each of the YouTube Channel Entries:
It's Movember again, time for us guys to band together and grow a Moustache for Men's Health! It doesn't really matter what age you are because Protate or Testicualr Cancer as well as Mental Health issues can hit us men at any age or affect someone close to you.
What can you do to help the cause:
