Pyramyd Air Announces New Build Your Own Airgun Service

Pyramyd Air, a retailer of airguns, optics, ammo, and more now offers airgun customization with the introduction of its Build Your Own Airgun service, available exclusively at Pyramyd Air.

“Airgunners put time into customizing their guns, and love to show off their finished product. We built this service with them in mind, to give them the ability to make their customization happen right at the time of purchase. We’re excited to see the different combinations people come up with, and will showcase an online gallery of the custom builds for others to view…and get inspired by,” the company stated in a press release.

Colt Single Action Army

At launch, the Build Your Own Airgun program will offer the ever-popular Colt Single Action Army Peacemakers out of the gate, but Pyramyd Air plans to include additional airgun models in a variety of price points and manufacturers in the future.

Customers start off on the airgun builder home page, where they can choose which air pistol they want to customize. Options include pellet and BB versions of the Colt Peacemaker, as well as the popular Ace-In-The-Hole pellet revolver. From there, customers are led into the builder screen where they can swap out barrels, grips, triggers, and more until they get the airgun that is right for them. As they swap out parts, the gun build is reflected in real-time, giving customers an accurate representation of what their gun will look like. Once finished customizing, they’ll be able to see estimated production time along with pricing.

Once the purchase is complete, Pyramyd Air’s technicians will build the custom gun and run it through their new Test Drive Service to ensure it not only looks good but performs as it should. Every gun will include a certificate verifying it passed performance testing.

Custom Build

Going through the build process is very easy. I built a custom Colt Peacemaker SSA that you can see below. There are currently six different options for the hammer, and on this build, I used the “Fanning Weathered.” You can choose from standard or fanning triggers in three different finishes. For the barrel, the 5.5-inch Weathered was used, but there are nine total options and three barrel sizes from 3.5-inch to 7.5-inch in three finishes. The cylinder has three options. Again I chose the weathered option. For the grip, I selected the faux wood, but there are two other options. Finally, for the trigger, you choose the gold or nickel. 

Custom Build Test Drive

It’s important to know that your custom creation looks great and works great, right out of the box. For every Pyramyd Air custom airgun build, the company will:

  1. Carefully inspect the finished build to ensure there are no physical defects or blemishes.

  2. Fire two magazines’ worth of shots through the chronograph (number of shots vary by gun).

  3. Enclose the chronograph tape of fired shots.

  4. Confirm that the gun cocks and cycles reliably for all shots.

  5. Verify that the trigger functions reliably for all shots.

  6. Verify that the safety functions properly.

  7. For PCP airguns only: Test the airgun’s accuracy from a distance of 10 meters (airguns will be secured in a vise to ensure consistency). The test group will be included.

  8. Ensure there are no audible or visible leaks in the build.

  9. Include a signed and dated testing certificate for your records.

For every custom-built gun, Pyramyd Air will honor the same length of time as the original manufacturer warranty, as well as the same terms and conditions stated by the manufacturer.
