I like them both

But your looking a 2 different guns all together.

RWS 850 is a great Co2 repeater and about $250.00 no compressed air

The Air Force is a great single shot, uses Co2 & compressed air, good for hot and cooler weather/winter and $500.00 to $600.00 without a pump.

These guns are so different you could buy them both and find a practical use for either one and not feel like you spent money unwisely.

For longevity, superior for hunting and target shooting I would go with the Air Force.

But

RWS 850 is a great gun as well, good for hunting smaller game, it’s a repeater not as loud and shoots straight, I liked every one that I shot.


If I was to choose just one I would go with the Air Force then look into the RWS 850 at a latter date

The 850 can be made dual fuel as well.

The 850 can be turned into a Dual fuel gun also and run on either
air or Co2 for around $540 you can one modified to run on both
from www.the850store.com or I can help you convert your own.
The 850 is a really good platform and highly upgradable.
