Umarex Ruger Mark IV Break Barrel .177 Caliber Pellet Air Pistol

Fun pellet gun. Heavy trigger but there are videos to follow to put a lighter spring and polish internal parts to make it perform much better. Fairly easy to do. I’d buy it again.

Nice pellet gun. Seams pretty accurate and easier to cock than I thought it was going to be. The power seams OK for what it is but no need for co2.

Good value for the money. Bought it because I love shooting my Ruger Mark II and this is similar in feel. I purchased it for indoor plinking at a steel trap. It is much lighter in weight than the Ruger but it easy to cock the piston which allows for quick reloads. It's fairly accurate with the right pellet although I had to experiment to find one that would give me a tight group without too many fliers (flat head match style). The trigger pull is as bad as other people have mentioned but I found a good YouTube video on how to disassemble and polish the trigger mechanism. It took about thirty minutes from start to finish and it reduced the trigger pull from 10 lbs to just under 4 lbs.

I bought it for under forty plus the usual Uncle Sam levies. I was a bit apprehensive about the amount of force it would need to break open the barrel, but I was pleasantly surprised to see that it is not a monumental effort. Loading a pellet, releasing the safety and shooting are all easy. However, as others have noted, the trigger needs a heavier pull and that tends to spoil the aim. I expect the effort to decrease over time as more pellets are shot.On the positive side - no CO2 cartridges, no finicky springs, easy as cake. On the negative side - being lighter than usual, and the trigger pull needing more effort, aiming is a roll of dice. It is fun - no doubt, and well-made too, as I saw nothing that can snag my skin or clothers, and it looks nice too.Overall, it is two thumbs up.

This is my 1st air-pistol, but not my 1st gun. I own a few BB/pellet guns and a lot of real firearms. I shoot often & am a good shot & know how to work on guns & sight them in. So, understand I'm not a kid that doesn't know how to shoot & therefore am blaming my lack of skills on the gun. I bought this for dispatching mice caught in glue traps. Don't let them suffer by throwing a living animal in the trash. Put it out of its misery. This is not powerful enough for anything larger than a mouse so don't run around wounding animals with it. Pros:1. Looks & feels good. Very nice looking replica of the real Ruger Mark IV firearm.Cons:1. Low powered2. Not very accurate.3. The adjustable rear sight cannot adjust down enough to make the sights accurate for anything beyond 10 feet. Not 10 yards, but 10 feet, or about 3.1 yards. 4. The rifling is not cut very deep at all. Rifling is so shallow that I mistakenly thought it was a smooth-bore barrel.For the point blank work on tiny rodents, this pistol will work fine.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Well I wanted try a different maker because I have bout two different pellet pistols from this one company and was disappointed in them both cause the broke I wanted to find a good one so I tried this one and I really like it so far absolutely no problems thankyou

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Did not want a long gun pellet rifle so this one was intriguing. Unfortunately, the trigger would not pull. Called Umanex and they said send it back. Did not seem surprised. Even tho reviews said it was a “hard” pull, it was just not firing.

Love it! Only had the chance shoot a few times so far but I'm pleased.
