Total: $279.99

Type: BB Rifle
Manufacturer: Air Venturi
Model: Hellraiser HellBoy
Materials: Metal and polymer
Weight: 2.36 g (5.2 lb)
Barrel: Smoothbore
Power Source: CO2
Action: Semi-automatic
Ammo Type: 4.55(.177cal) BBs
Ammo Capacity: 18 rounds
FPS: 495

Buy the magazine: AVT1033

Trigger Pull: Double action only triggers since there's no blowback action to set the trigger in single action mode. It'll be heavier than a true single-action trigger. That said, the trigger is not bad at all and can be activated very quickly for tons of fast action shooting, or at least until your 18 rounds are all gone :). I would say the trigger pull is between light and medium with a medium pull length and not that much take-up at the beginning.

Accuracy: I've played around with the Air Venturi HellBoy shooting at clay pigeons from various distances and it was surprisingly accurate for off-hand shooting. I could easily hit a clay pigeon from about 50 feet away with most shots. On a target, I shot a nice 10-inch 10-round grouping using a mounted red dot scope to help.

Build Quality: The Hellboy is made in China and some people will not like that, but I found it to be very well-built. Fit and finish are as good, if not better than any Taiwanese airgun I have reviewed, so quality control in the factory must be good. You're going to find metal parts where you would expect them to be on a real M4 (AR), like the receiver, barrel, buffer tube, magazine, carry handle, forward assist, charging handle, sling mounts, safety, and magazine release. Plastic parts are going to be the rear stock, hand guard, and pistol grip.

Realism: The Air Venturi HellBoy M4 BB Rifle is a 1 to 1 replica of the M4 or AR platform and even has some interchangeable parts like the hand guard and rear stock. You can take this gun down into the two halves, upper and lower, which makes for barrel cleaning or BB jam removal pretty easy. Even though there's no blowback action or internal bolt, you can pull the charging handle back which opens the dust cover just like the real deal. Other working moving parts are the magazine release, selector switch, forward assist, and adjustable rear stock.

Pros:

  • Realistic M4 carbine replica
  • Full metal receiver, barrel, and magazine
  • Handguard and rear stock can be swapped out with real steel AR parts
  • Integrated sling swivel mounts
  • Adjustable rear sight with dual apertures
  • Carry handle removable to expose Weaver/Picatinny rail
  • Working dust cover, forward assist, magazine release, selector switch
  • Powerful 495 FPS muzzle velocity
  • Field strip capability

Cons:

  • No blowback operation
  • Low-cap magazine only holds 18 rounds
  • Does not have full-auto functionality

Comments: Unleash hell with this CO2 powered M4 air rifle from Air Venturi! The HellBoy sports an ultra-realistic metal construction with the only polymer parts being the handguard, pistol grip, and six-position crane stock. This rifle is built for customization with a removable carry handle, rail-mount-ready handguard, and two integrated sling attachment points. With a blistering 495 FPS muzzle velocity, the HellBoy spits semi-auto fire.

Air Venturi HellBoy CO2 NBB Steel BB Rifle

Overall nice unit !! Feels like the real deal in your hands, and I like it !!! A little $$$ for mid-capacity (18-rds.) semi-auto (as compared to Crosman R1 or DPMS which are higer cap (25-rds.) and full-auto capable), but the quality and POWER compensate for the price-tag. Plus the mags can be reloaded AT LEAST 6 times before the CO2 pressure noticeably drops. Couple sidenotes: . barrel-to-mag seal fell out of the receiver as the unit was first removed form the packaging - attributed to "jolting" during shipment - EASY to reseat thru the side ejection port/dust cover opening (intuitive how and where it fits, and can only be reseated one way). . if you're going to field-strip it, know what you're doing BEFORE removing the receiver seat-pins, or you'll have pins, springs, pieces coming out, and if you're not familiar with the whole thing may not have fun after getting it back together ! . if your hoping to remove the forward barrel extension to shorten the overall length, it's not possible as the inner barrel is a solid steel piece - would only save you 3-4 inches anyway - at 30" it's pretty short as it is outa-the-box ! . Air Venturi rates the firing sound as 3/5,..honestly I would say it's more like 2/5,...VERY QUIET (so if you're hoping for a loader discharge sound this doesn't have it)

Money well spent.

Picked it up today from the PO and couldn't wait to unbox it. I spent 8 years in the U.S. army and carried the M4, this is as close you are going to get to the real thing here in Canada. 10 yards out I was consistent with my groupings and average fps was more than 490. I am on the island and a sea level. The report is average but I highly recommend this rifle, 20' out I was able to puncture an empty spray can and yes I cleaned up my target. Glenn in Victoria....

A very cool gun with some flaws

I received this from Replica Airguns in the mail and was very happy when it arrived. The look and feel is great. However the magazine has a major flaw in it. Mine hit the O ring leading to the inner barrel only the second time I ever took in and out the mag. This broke the screw, then forcing the O ring spring to eject the inner barrel into the receiver... Amazingly the gun is still working but you literally have to hold the inner barrel in against the springs power where it should be, through the dust cover when putting the magazine in or the barrel will obstruct the magazine literally being in the middle of the receiver.. Very awkward... So ummm Overall I hate to knock it because other than this issue the gun is really nice. I Emailed Replica Airguns about the issue and am awaiting a response. So far they have been really great with all my previous orders. Finally I'd say I've seen a lot of other friends who have this gun and theirs works fine. No matter how good the quality of a gun you are always going to get those flawed ones every couple hundred or thousand the factory spits out. Mine could be an odd case. I'd still consider buying this gun if you are looking into it.

Fantastic

My Hellboy exceeded my expectations. It looks and feels awesome, and it shoots hard with great accuracy! I get over 100 decent shots per CO2. The recoil and report are basically nil, but this was expected. It’s perfect for a whisper quiet backyard plinker. I love the nostalgic look of the carry handle and basic hand guard. I added an M9 bayonet for a bit more old school “tacticool”. The bayonet lug works well. My only complaint is that the magazine in my rifle “wobbles” slightly every time I pull the trigger. I contacted Replica Airguns, and I was told that can be normal out of the box. I’ve put hundreds of BBs through my Hellboy, and the “wobble” remains. Although this mildly detracts from the realism while handling the rifle, the “wobble” does add a slight sense of recoil to an otherwise recoiless shooting experience. All-in-all my Hellboy is an excellent shooter and beautiful replica. I am very impressed with the product and level of customer service I received. I highly recommend the Hellboy and Replica Airguns!

Very Nice Gun

This is a rather well made M4 replica. A little let down by the metal quality but this was to be expected. Everything is as shown and as specified. The gun uses C02 very sparingly and you get a lot of shots out of one chamber. If you're only going for realism and not functionality there are other options, I would recommend real steel replica airsoft modeals that cost around $500 USD. If your on a budget this is it. Good gun, Good price.

What a GREAT M4 replica!

Even though it came out of the box with its front sight post not square (crooked), its so well built, I fixed it in a hour or so in my tool room. I'm a grad of AGI's Practical GunSmithing course, but anyone with patience could fix it cause its well built. BUY one if your thinking of it cause you may not be able to in the future.

HellBoy M4 tactical Co2 BB air rifle

The replicaairguns review is bang on! This is a super fun m4 replica BB gun that actually shoots a hard as the manufacturer claims! The velocity helps me reach out and kill cans to 40-50 ft �� I added a rubber recoil butt pad for comfort and replaced the carry handle with an AimPoint style rear combat peep sights. I put a rail on top and one below for a foregrip and flashlight. I would love an AirGun like this in .22 caliber roundball!

Type: BB Rifle. Manufacturer: Air Venturi. Model: HellBoy. Materials: Metal & plastic. Weight: 5.2 pounds (2.4 kilograms). Barrel: 14.5 inches, smooth bore. Propulsion: 12 gram CO2 single cartridge. Action: Non-Blowback - double action only. Ammunition Type: 4.5mm steel BB's. Ammunition Capacity: 18 rounds. FPS: 495fps I think the Air Venturi HellBoy M4 CO2 BB Rifle is a super addition to the replica rifle lineup. I know we all wish it had blowback operation and shot in full auto mode too but there are trade-offs here and you can still have boat loads of fun shooting the Air Venturi HellBoy M4 CO2 BB Rifle even in semi auto only mode. The fact that it does not have blowback allows for some generous fps velocity and more shots per CO2. It looks really great, feels really great and shoots really great all in a mostly metal build which is what everyone has been asking for and at a reasonable price. I think the Air Venturi HellBoy M4 CO2 BB Rifle is a total winner and recommend it 100%. You will not be disappointed!

I had a lot of outdoor fun just playing around with the Air Venturi HellBoy M4 CO2 BB Rifle but a real Field Test Shooting review had to be done, maybe not as fun as my outdoor video but I still had a great time shooting the Air Venturi HellBoy M4 CO2 BB Rifle none the less. So how did the Air Venturi HellBoy M4 CO2 BB Rifle do? Unfortunately my Chrony Chronograph bit the dust, even though it I just bought it well I guess we are going back 2 years ago but still my luck with the Chrony Chronographs has not been good :( I thought it was perhaps the battery but when I switched it out for a new one I still got the same gibberish on screen!

When it comes to accuracy, match grade pellet pistols are going o be your best bet, not always the most powerful but they are sure good at driving pellets down range with super small groupings. The Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol is no exception to this statement and considering all that it offers it is fairly reasonably price for a match grade pellet pistol of this caliber. Right off the bat I have to admit that my Chrony Chronograph stopped working, all I get is gibberish on the screen (Strike two for Chrony!). So I was not able to get any personal Chronograph results even though I even tried using my Airsoft Chronograph without success :( I did however watch a few other Youtube Video reviews where users tested out the FPS using a similar Chronograph and the Air Venturi V10 Match Pellet Pistol should get right around 390 fps using 7 grain lead pellets, this is close to the 400 fps claimed velocity.

It's been a while since I made a just for fun shooting video, especially a multi-camera kinda tactical shooting video. Well the weather was nice, I had the perfect CO2 Air Rifle for the job, the Air Venturi HellBoy, and I need to keep things simple since I am in contest prep for a fitness show I am doing this weekend and being so low on calories and high on activity messes with the brain a little bit which makes it hard to focus.
