Evanix Max ML

Thanks for all those that have shown an interest in the Semi-Auto Evanix GTL480. Whilst being an awesome air rifle, a lot of people have been asking if there's something similar available at a lower price. Not in semi-auto at the moment but if it's the styling you are looking for then carry on reading.

The Rainstorm Bullpup was brought in by AC Guns of Hastings a while ago and was covered in a number of airgun magazines. It is a great piece of kit, but has been reviewed a lot so here is something along those lines but a bit different in it's styling.
The Max ML. I have no idea how Evanix choose names for their guns, it all seems a bit random, but it is what it is and maybe they translate better in Korean.

At first glance the scope seems a bit on the high side, however in use it is very comfortable. It has a weaver rail for this purpose, so you wont be able to use 'standard' 9-11mm mounts but this does give a nice secure grip.

The UK version is at sub 12ftlbs but can be ordered in FAC if you have a license. It can be in .177 or .22 at the moment with most buyers opting for the .22 version. Other versions available in Korea and the USA at the moment include a semi-auto 9mm and .357 version but won't be here anytime soon.

The fully shrouded barrel means you don't really need an additional silencer, this gun is all about its short length, but if required the front cap unscrews, (I found a BSA R-10 silencer is a perfect fit). 

It has Evanix's standard side lever cocking action which like all of their models, cycles the 10 shot magazine nice and smoothly.

The shot count is officially 170 for a UK .22, however I found I was getting slightly more than that out of the nicely fitted cylinder which also has a built in air gauge. The trigger pull measured at just under 6lbs with the weight of the gun without a scope is 8.59lbs (3.9 Kg) which sounds heavy but in it's short design is very acceptable.

The ML is also rigged to take other additions such as a foregrip and adjustable rear stock. (AC Guns have been experimenting with these as shown below from their Facebook page.... I have just used it as standard.).

The synthetic version of this gun is priced at £750 whilst the walnut stock will cost you £900. Personally I prefer the synthetic tactical look and feel that paying extra for wood is not worth it, however I am sure that some people will like the look and feel of it.

A Walnut stock version is £900.
