We asked airgun writer Tom Gaylord for his top-5 reasons to own an AirForce Escape:
- Most powerful smallbore air rifle
- Accurate
- Quickly fills with a hand pump
- Variable power
- Compact/lightweight
Are you a survivalist or prepper? The Escape air rifle was made for you! Its compact, light, accurate, very powerful and has adjustable power.
Conceptualized by TVs Ton Jones of Auction Hunters fame, the Escape air rifle makes it easy to grab & go when you need to get out of Dodge immediately! Keep your gun ready to move out by making sure you have the hand pump, pellets and gun in one place (preferably in a lightweight case or backpack made to carry rifles). Because the Escape air reservoir is small, most people can fill it quickly and easily with a hand pump.
Does not come with sights, refill clamp or device to fill the tank. If you plan to put a scope on your gun, you wont need to buy open sights. The AirForce hand pump comes with the correct fitting to fill your Escape air rifle.
Ton Jones didnt just conceive the Escape series of air rifles, he also did a good bit of the testing. Besides the velocity/energy figures shown above, here are some more figures supplied by Ton and AirForce Airguns:
.22-caliber Beeman Kodiak pellets
21.14 grains
