Gamo Boxer Bullpup — Lightweight PCP Air Rifle

Gamo Boxer Bullpup Review — Gamo’s First Bullpup

The Gamo Boxer Bullpup is Gamo’s first entry into the bullpup air rifle market. Europe knows it as the Furia. The rifle uses a BSA-sourced action and BSA’s legendary cold-hammer-forged barrel. This combines British manufacturing with Spanish beech wood styling. The Boxer is available in .177 and .22 calibre. It features a 10-shot rotary magazine, a Whisper barrel shroud, and a bolt-action cocking mechanism. The Whisper shroud reduces noise by up to 52%. For shooters wanting a compact, manoeuvrable PCP for pest control, the Boxer delivers exceptional value.

Gamo Boxer Bullpup Problems — Honest Owner Feedback

The Gamo Boxer has some limitations. The bolt-action cocking position is the most common complaint. Unlike many bullpups with mid-action cocking, the Boxer requires you to come off aim after each shot. The bolt sits rear of the trigger. The bolt also requires significant effort to cock. Gamo bolt actions can suffer from double loading if you don’t operate them positively. The dovetail rail is 13mm rather than 11mm. Standard scope mounts may not fit. Owners recommend Sportsmatch BSA-specific mounts or BKL mounts. The cheekpiece does not adjust. A recess under the cheekpiece contains an 11mm dovetail rail. You must remove the cheekpiece to access it, and it provides no height adjustment. The two-stage trigger unit has no adjustment provision. Expert testers found it reasonably light and comfortable anyway. On the positive side, owners note the mechanical simplicity. The action uses the BSA Bucaneer/Gamo Venari/Coyote/GX40 platform. Owners describe it as not complex, so less to go wrong.

Gamo Boxer Bullpup Accuracy — Expert Test Results

Airgun World tested the Boxer and found it performed well. The reviewer spent countless hours shooting in the garden. He found the accuracy more than sufficient for pest control. Taking pot-shots at rusty nails in barn walls became quite accurate and quick on the draw. The .177 version produced an extreme velocity spread of just 8 fps over 10 shots. The reviewer noted that the Boxer will excel for pigeon and squirrel shooting. A longer rifle would keep getting hung up in heavy undergrowth. For hunting use, 80-100 shots per fill is generous. Most hunters won’t fire 80 shots in a single session. The Whisper shroud system keeps the rifle quiet for discreet pest control without adding significant weight.
