Ammunition Capacity: 1 Arrow.
Max FPS: 300 / 450.

Trigger Pull: The trigger pull on both the Umarex AirJavelin and the Umarex AirSaber are both single action that require the bolts to be pulled back in order to shoot them. The Umarex AirJavelin trigger is not as short, light or crisp as the Umarex AirSaber, the Umarex AirSaber for sure feels higher quality as expected.

Accuracy: This is going to be very interesting as I have never shot anything like this before but from what I was told at SHOT Show this year I can expect very accuracy results from both the Umarex AirJavelin and the Umarex AirSaber Archery CO2 and PCP Arrow Rifles. I’m not sure if I will test the Umarex AirSaber unless I can make a safe shooting range for it, luckily I live out on average so as long as I can setup a good backstop I should be able to test them both.

Build Quality: The build quality of the Umarex AirJavelin and the Umarex AirSaber Archery CO2 and PCP Arrow Rifles is very good overall, the Umarex AirJavelin is mostly plastic and is not very heavy but the fit and finish is good all round. The Umarex AirSaber on the other hand has a lot of metal used in the construction, the only real plastic found on the Umarex AirSaber would be in the stock. The Umarex AirSaber is for sure a step up in quality over the Umarex AirJavelin but will cost you almost double in the end.

Realism: This is going to be pretty short section since both the Umarex AirJavelin and the Umarex AirSaber Archery CO2 and PCP Arrow Rifles are not replicas of any actual gun in production. Their primary use is going to be for hunting and or pest control I would say.

Pros:

  • Only Canada non PAL Airguns with enough power to hunt medium and larger game.
  • Overall price point is good, nothing like this to compare to.
  • Arrows are propelled from the front, no archers paradox when aiming.
  • Arrows come with field tip arrows but can be unscrewed and replaced with broad tip arrows for hunting.
  • Easy to use cross bolt safeties.
  • Pistol grips allow for easy hold and control.
  • Fit and finish is very good and excellent on the AirSaber.
  • AirJavelin: 88 Gram CO2 for quick easy use.
  • AirSaber: PCP for more power and larger game options.
  • AirJavelin: White dot up front with fully adjustable peep sight on back.
  • AirJavelin: M-Lock on sides for adding accessories.
  • AirSaber: Picatinny rails on top for scope, sides and bottom for accessories.
  • AirJavelin: Adjustable AR-style rear stock.
  • AirJavelin: Rubber buttplate for added comfort.

Cons:

  • No scope or sights with base model AirSaber so you will need to get one for it.
  • Not a lot of shots per 88 gram CO2, will need a pump for the PCP AirSaber.
  • Arrows are not cheap so make sure of your shots.

Comments:
The Umarex AirJavelin and Umarex AirSaber Archery CO2 and PCP Arrow Rifles are very interesting in that they are really the only Canada legal “firearms” that can actually put down small, medium and even large game without requiring a firearms license (PAL). This is because they do not exceed 500 fps, they do exceed the foot pound energy limit of 4.2 foot pounds but since both of these rifles do not exceed the 500 fps limit they do not exceed both requirements to place them in the regulated firearms category that requires a firearms license. This is great news for anyone in Canada without a PAL license that wants to be able to hunt various game or take care of pests humanly. Umarex has also been kind enough to bring us two variations on this design. The Umarex AirJavelin more economical and easier to use CO2 powered version designed for small to medium sized game and the Umarex AirSaber higher quality PCP powered big brother version designed to be used even for larger game. Both are great, all you need to do is pick which one is right for you!

Nice toy!

So, I put 1,000 PSI (Max recommended pump pressure is 3,650PSI with the PCP pump) into the Air Saber & kinda sighted it in @ 25' in the garage/laundry room. I can't believe the accuracy of this thing! Less than 1/2" groupings (mind, you, only 25' away) {I'd submit a pic of the targets, but not available tp post here} After a dozen or so shots, air pressure only dropped ~100PSI The Air Javelin is much noisier - using 12gram "el cheapo" cylinders with an adapter. Get 5 good shots per $1.00 12 gram cylinder. The 88 gram cylinder$ are ~25 shots per ~$22 cylinder..but more powerful,.so.. Accuracy is OK on the Javelin,.neither here nor there, as I'm just using "open" stock plastic sights, ..so far. Made the target box with compressed, used, leftover "saran wrap" AKA: used pallet wrap from grocery stores.. It works really well! Never penetrated more than 6-8" (again, well packed wrap, in a cardboard box) /end today's toy rave

Great product but poor customer service

I purchased this product several months ago and it has worked great. However, a few days ago I noticed that the screw that holds the barrel to the air tank had fallen out and is now missing. I contacted Umarex to request a new screw and they informed me that they cannot send replacement parts to Canada. I assume that this pertains to all Umarex USA products. Buyer beware.

Buy it from Replica Airguns

Great impulse buy. Gun is fun to shoot and fills full in under two minutes with my compressor. You can research online and see for yourself about the gun but I do recommend buying from these guys here at Replica Airguns - fantastic service. When I had received my gun it had seemed incredibly difficult to slide the arrows on. Research online had shown that the arrows slide on extremely easy and secure via o-ring. The arrows on mine took two hands to jam it in there. I called Umarex and they were helpful up until I mentioned I was in Canada then they seemed uninterested to help and told me to contact a company in Manitoba to repair the gun on their behalf. They did mention that there was a "bad run" of the guns and some sort of design change. At this point I decided to contact Replica Airguns and see what they could do. Dealing with them on the return process was quick, clear and very little effort on my part. Leo had very good communication throughout and was a pleasure to deal with. About 3 weeks later I received my replacement gun. The arrows were still a bit stiff but went on easier, not needing two hands to force them on. Tried out the gun this weekend and I was very happy with my purchase of the arrow gun and investment in compressor, target, accessories. After a number of shots fired the arrows seem even more easy to go on than before. *While unconfirmed I believe the design change at factory was the change from securing the arrow in the gun via popping the arrow shaft over the o-ring, to now just the arrow seating more tightly overall and no more popping-over-the-o-ring to secure it. In short if your new gun takes some force to slide the arrows on at first, you are probably A-OK still, just fire a few shots first and see how it goes. Excellent service from Replica Airguns, this wasn't my first purchase here and surely will not be my last. Thanks!

unbelievable quality for price!

Aside from shipping taking longer than expected (no fault of Replicaairguns.ca ) The gun build quality, assembly out-of-the-box coupled with the power and accuracy....good luck finding anything better. Far exceeded my expectations.
