Umarex Colt SAA .45 Peacemaker Blued Pellet Version Review

Good job .... An observation rather than a criticism though - get rid of that mat in the background for future ones!
It's too 'busy' and kind of soaks up detail on what you're filming

I keep one of these by my bed, no pellets because this is for house spider season. Point blank it reduces them to unrecognisable fragments and leaves no messy carpet residue the way more traditional techniques can. It also takes out annoying house flies, the kind that keep landing on you in the night and won't take a hint.

Lol. A quick blast of Co2, eh? Like it. ... Reminds me of my Grandad. He used to keep a 410 garden gun (converted Lee Enfield SMLE .303) loaded with home-filled cartridges containing rock salt by the back door for blasting flying rats (wood pigeons) off his cabbage seeds ... Worked a treat, didn't cause any damage beyond twenty yards, and left any effected offending woody ready plucked. That was in the 1950s though. Can you imagine a horticulturalist being allowed to get away with that these days?

Thanks mate, yup I totally take that on board and do it sometimes, I got a white plastic board to do some videos on your see that in some of them, that helps when doing close up tutorials or upgrade videos etc, I was going to do anyway with the tek mat in all my videos but so many people kept telling me to bring back the tek mat so I did lol, I wish I choose a plain work top when I built my man cave too late now though lol..

Oh same goes for the gloves, I don't wear them in all videos and to be totally honest, most of the time I don't wear them out of choice, I have contact dermatitis so some days my hands are either sore so I wear them or my hands just look too bad for me to comfortably put them on camera..

but at Christmas I might treat myself to a different tek mat that's not so over powering or even a different type of mat, they are definitely very good to work on though that's for sure..

Happy Shooting mate,
ATB Marc

I like your mat Marc.
Understand about gloves from earlier posts- must be annoying at least!

Excellent review as usual Marc. I'm the guy that had three bb versions. All developed the bulged barrel and got refunds for all. I now have all three pellet versions (I like them a lot, lol) and all are faultless after VERY extensive daily use for months. I agree with everything said in the review. Every gun is spot on for accuracy but very unforgiving. It WILL show up any fault in shooting technique which is a good thing in my book. The wear on the blued gun is apparent on mine, which disappointed me when first noticed, but now I actually like it. I'm sure "real" guns show useage wear. No wear issues with my other two versions. I don't see the hammer gap as fault in any way as it has to be that way because of the valve. Maybe they couldn't get round that design issue at the price point or I think they would have. Thanks for the review Marc.
