Air Venturi 3000 PSI with Stock & Adapter Aluminum Tank

Type: Airgun Accessory.
Manufacturer: Distributed by Air Venturi.
Model: Air Venturi 3000 PSI with Stock & Adapter Aluminum Tank.
Materials: Aluminum.
PSI: 3000.
Capacity: 13 CU.
Output PSI: 1100.
Diameter: 2 inches.
Length: 10 inches.
Features: Two ASTM burst disks, integrated pressure gauge.
Accessories included: Buttstock, CO2 Adapter.

Pros:

• Compact and is the perfect size to use as a rear buttstock for various 88 Gram and or HPA rifles.
• Smaller tank means if you are using a foot pump it won’t take all day to fill up.
• Comes with adapter so can be used with regular HPA and 88 Gram CO2 systems.
• Regulated to 1100 psi so should perform better in terms of max velocity and consistency compared to CO2 which is around max 800-900 psi with velocity being effected by cool down.
• Not effected by colder temperatures compared to CO2.
• Once you have this tank the cost is virtually nothing to shoot compared to expensive 88 Gram CO2 cartages. You just need to buy your pellets or BB’s.

Cons:

• Still takes a while to pump up using a foot pump system.
• Higher initial cost ($195) than simply buying 88 gram CO2 cartages when you need them.
• Will need access to a pump or compressor to use it.
• Doesn’t look as good as the supplied buttstock at least with the Sig Sauer MCX and MPX.

Comments: I guess the question is who is this for? If you are a casual shooter that perhaps owns the Sig MPX or MCX or even another 88 Gram CO2 Air Rifle that the Air Venturi 3000 PSI with Stock & Adapter Aluminum Tank would work with then this may be a bit expensive especially if you don’t have a way to pressurizer the tank at home. On the other hand if you already have a foot pump or air compressor or easy access to one and maybe you have other HPA or CO2 based airguns this tank will work with then it’s kind a no brainer to get it. Maybe you juts want a system that gives you maximum and consistent velocity no matter how cold it is outside. All good reasons to get one in my books.
