Benjamin Armada Standard - Airgun Review by AirgunWeb / Rick Eutsler

My .22 Armada once cocked and sits for few minutes or several minutes a lot of times it barely pushed out the pellet. Must be loosing air around the transfer port do you have any thoughts? Thanx in advance. Love your vids.

A must have!!

Is it normal some air comming out when shooting in magazine area

How many ft/lb is this as standard on your review?

More like a paid ad than a true review

Very accurate with standard Crosman 14.3 grain pellets. Don’t waist money on high priced pellets. After a break period its dead on at 200 feet.

Love the tactical, not gimmicky “tacticool” look of it. Love to have one with a red dot,3x flip, and laser. And light and bipod lol.

Please don't wear a black shirt when reviewing a gun that is black. I can hardly see the gun.

I have one, and have not managed to shoot it as the magazine is so shit.. it just doesn’t work! Any ideas how this is supposed to be loaded?

now that was a good review

What is the gun in the Rack behind you at the very top?

whats that hot gun on the back left ? 👀

between Benjamin Armada and Hatsan bullbos, which is the best?

I just got my self a .25 cal benjamin armada for $ 424 dollars, ( rifle only )

Hi ..can this gun take down a hog?

LE PRIX SVP

I just placed an order for a Benjamin Armada .25 caliber today. After reading hundreds of awesome reviews I decided to buy one and get rid of my Benjamin Trail NP XL .22

Would the bolt bother me if I'm a left handed shooter??

Hey Rick thanks for all the videos and the hard work! Partly because of your videos and others, I went ahead full bore and got the Benjamin Armada .25 and I've customized it to my own style and liking. It looks so great but I have not shot it yet due to time constraints. I know from watching all of the videos on the marauder .25 as well as those on the Armada .25, I would like to boost the FPS to the upper 800's, like 880 or so. do you know a good air gun smith that can do what it takes to raise the feet per second as well as install a hammer de-bouncer?

When will they make this in .357?

hi
please I want ask a but a gun at back of u in your right hand what's the name and the option

Rick, can you convert the .25 Armada to Magpul? Would be nice if it could be done. I know in one of your videos a year or so ago you mentioned that Crossman might make the .25 in the Magpul edition. Can't understand why they wouldn't offer it. Thanks.

how does it come in the mail? un-boxing?
does it come as a large assembled packaged for the mailman to steal? or is it in a kit to be mostly assembled when oppened?
I like this one.

Hey Rick,
I've been looking at both the Evanix Sniper and benjamin Armada in .177 cal and I'm trying to choose between them. I'm in the UK so power is limited to just 12fpe. I'd be looking to have repeatable accuracy out to 50 yards to be competitive in field target comps.
Which of the two rifles would you suggest to be better? even if the Armada in the vid is .22, while the sniper is .45 lol

I'm debating between this and the hatsan bullboss

no slings

Does your wife help with scripts, these days? Your delivery hasn't gotten quite good over the years, certainly in your early days with the kid's slide in the background. LOL

Tell Crosman to make the Armada in a .357.... If you're going to make an AR style rifle licensed by Magpul... Make it a big bore!

Hello again Rick, I just watched a video where a guy said that you cannot leave the armada pressurized, and it needs to be degassed when not in use. Is this true, and is this not opposite of the marauder, because I've left that pressurized as I thought that's what the manual said. So, with the armada, do you know if I can leave it "charged" while not shooting it. Having to fill it completely every time I pick it up could be troublesome. Thanks. :)

It's funny reading through the comments how many people complain about the gun and/ or it's specs, but have never touched or even shot it. Hahaha I will wait for mine patiently and give an honest accurate opinion. ;)

Damn you Rick! I just bought one of these bad boys, now the waiting game till it gets here. :/

do you need to switch to a Foster female quick disconnect adapter to fill it up by pump? I'm thinking about buying the armada with pump combo.

can you kill something big like a dear with those weapons?

Did they fix the hammer bounce with this model or do you still need to install an hdd like you did with the maradauer?

i wish it wasnt 700 bucks.

what crossman premiere were you using and which do you prefer.

Where abouts in AZ are you?

Hi, i'm looking for a air rifle for longer distance shooting, of about 100-200 yards. Would you consider this duable with this gun? If not what gun would you recommend?

Thanks in advance.


p.s.: What would you think the M.O.A. is of this gun?

+Airgun Expert & Critic-Rick Eustler / Airgunweb Hi Rick, I have a .25 marauder synthetic and it started to leak air a while ago. I am having it sent in to Baker Airguns and they are going to fix it for me and send it back. How can I make sure that this wont happen again? Also, the zoom function on my scope has been damaged somehow. It is very hard to turn the knob but otherwise the scope seems to be fine, should I be worried about this? Will It effect the performance of my scope? I appreciate your answer, Thanks.

What's that rifle in the background and what call. does it shoot

so which is the gun to buy?? price is pretty close..the Benjamin Armada...or a Air Force Condor? any thoughts?

Wow! Puts my old Crosman pump to shame, but my old Crosman was a top-notch air rifle 55 years ago when I received it for Christmas. I still have that Crosman, but it looks like it's time for an upgrade.

I wish they made this with the rogue platform for big bore.

is the scope worth the extra hundred dollars or should i buy the scope separately?? How fine are the reticles on the scope? hopefully its not as bad as the wire reticles on the utg swat scope

that's kinda weak on those 15GR pellets. I was hoping it would do 1000FPS with a 14GR pellet. 8(
so basically the only thing you're really getting for a $$1000 is a ati / ar style furniture. although i do like that accuracy, this doesn't seem to be much of a performance jump from most break barrels, and falls below some of the better break barrels. for a $$1000 i'd expect a lot more rifle.

why doesnt the armada average 900+fps like the .22 marauder. A bit disappointing

seriously dreaming about this gun!!

I'd really like to get one of these AR's in my hands, especially the Benjamin Armada,  but this side of the planet a $1000 equals 10'000 of our currency. Eissssh! thats an arm and a leg! Where's a charity group when you need one?!?

Awesome air gun. We expected you guys made big claiber armada. With long distance 2000 fps.

Made Benjamin armada 2000 fps. With big caliber. I have tow Benjamin air gun. Is amazing
