Today we explore the TR 50L (formally known as the HDR 50) Gen3 with a laser. This launcher is exclusively provided by Defense Innovation & Modern Combat Sports (MCS) and it’s a truly improved launcher from its predecessors. Designed and used around the world as a less lethal defense tool, the Umarex TR 50 is one of the most popular airguns of its kind. Today we test it against a whole array of targets, we check its accuracy and finally put it through the chronograph. A MUST WATCH!
A big thank you to Defense Innovation for providing the TR50L Gen 3 today, along with the awesome holster and various ammo.
Also a huge thank you to Jon from https://www.youtube.com/@AlternateArmsSD for helping in providing additional info regarding the TR50L Gen 3. Check out is channel for more on everything less-lethal.
And a huge, massive thank you to the distinguished Members of this channel for your incredibly kind support. I cannot tell you how much it is appreciated!

the z rams didn't go in the ballistic gel because it wasn't leaning flat to a sturdy surface. basically it was just a bouncing bed.
Great test I have this launcher and the torpedo revolver, the hdr 50 is alittle stronger depending on how tight the amo fits in drum, I'm yet to get hdr68 16 j and pistelle x 68 gen 2
What happen to the Dominican coconut
Now I want some SpaghettiOs
Cool, informative videos but c'mon, lay off the noticably fake accent
Thanks for the upload! It's been a while! 🤣👍
I'd love to see you showcasing Mora knives, if you can. They're AWESOME. And cheap (in cost).
U are getting your stuff right baby. Always a fan of your honesty and commitment to your channel. Kinda funny too
Great review I've been waiting for this one👍👍👍👍👍, and the new coconut seemed a bit tougher than the old ones?
Love the intro ! Why is it that coconuts always have a bad day when you are in non-lethal defense mode? Finally, truly junk "food" has faced its just nemesis. Respectful Regards, FMR Intelligence Officer
Impressive
which gun is better the 50 or the 68?
There is another YouTuber in Germany (Joerg Sprave) that demonstrated the "Six Needler" which launches 6 darts which had impressive results for penetration. Hopefully you will be able to test one when available in the USA. The target price is less than $150.
I love the cameo from the guru 🫡
7:46 what a mess !!
I want have the revolver with 7.5 joule. I have a very small wrist . Like a woman . Would be the blowback too intense 4 me?
Merci pour cette présentation 😊 marc de france. French.👍🇨🇵
In my humble opinion this is the most responsible, informative and entertaining airgun channel out there. Very good consistency on this launcher. As for Spaghetti Os why have these things not gone extinct, who buys them? Well done for your efforts to rid the world of them.
i never cared for the temperamental attributes of the hdt "tr.50" . when i first got my hdp, hdr.50 and hdr.68 what a few yrs back , i did an extensive thorough exhaustive study that lasted about 5 months , taking them completely apart and hand finishing each individual part , taking them apart almost on a daily basis and trying different parts from home defence -24 , barrels and firing pins i got to see first hand what the performance differences of each launcher were with different parts . solving all their problems was interesting and fun , its my life long hobby ! . the hdr 50 was my least fav because of the farting problems they had when i did certain performance mods , unlike the hdr.68 which was awesome , and along with the HDP.50 , which i still have 3 of them for personal use , i got rid of one , all my markers still perform as good as ever ! . the key to all of this is continued lubing !!!!
earlier you spoke of "somebody" who was an expert in this field ? haha lol , considering i been modding air and co2 goodies for 4 decades , dont get mad buddy , but for the first time since i have known you i must disagree ! LOL !!!! HEY , WE CAN ALL AGREE TO DISAGREE RIGHT ??? !!!! LOL !!!!
although that "somebody" is definitely getting to be a little more knowledgeable than some , he still has a lot to learn !!! . enough about him , lets talk about you , you on the other hand have fastly become to go to guy for all the newest and hottest things in the less lethal and airgun world , and not only that , you are slowing becoming a dead eye marksman in my educated opinion !!! how i wished you and your family there was in central Louisiana , i could train you in several different martial arts and introduce you to archery , blowgunning , knife throwing and knife fighting , just a few more fun things to add to your already long list of talents , I KNOW YOU ARENT INTO HUNTING , BUT HOW ABOUT FISHING ! .
i cant always promise you i will always be there for the rest of your life MY BUDDY , but will for mine lol !
GREAT JOB AS ALWAYS MY BROTHER AND FRIEND !!!!
Another outstanding video! I have the Gen 1 & 2 HDR50. I want to get the GEN3 as well, and I saw it in pistol style ( not revolver type). It advertises 15 joules. I think the pistol type would be easier to carry and give you a faster draw if needed. Do you have a video on this one? Thanks so much for what you do, I so much enjoy every episode of AirGun Alley! Take care now!
Not many videos on that launcher yet, I dont think ive seen that much damage on the spaghettios can before with 50 cal rounds, appreciate it very much, in a future video can you try deez bullets?, im curious since that round reached 20+ joules in the 11j version
well good video as always, and I do really like Jon's channel as well. and Jon is a really good guy. I have one of these, and I am thinking about buying more and replacing my older models with these. the laser is good for the dark.. give you about where you will hit on someone.and in other countries , like England , bad guys still have alot of guns. as well as other countries. in Italy you are allowed to own firearms. even in countries like the Swiss and Checks, firearms are owned by people, but that kind of crime is low because people are different with different values. even Germans can get a permit though I don't know how hard it is. most cases a gun like this is a good thing to have. even in the USA , because if you can end it with one of these it is much better, no one dies, and you don't end up spending millions to prove you are innocent'. but in countries like England you really DON"T have the right to defend yourself ( it is really becoming a COMMUNIST country, even Canada, Australia.) so I don't know about how these are used there. ( and that is what they want us to be here, powerless and victims, they keep trying. so we must keep fighting, even guns like this are mentioned now in gun bans in "democrat" controlled states.)
3 movies in 1 respect 🙂👍
Nice! I love my TR50!
HDR50 is more affordable than Byrna.
More versatile ammo to choose from.
It looks cooler and more unique.
Both can secure CO2 until use.
Both can be lethal with the right mods.
Highly recommend pepper ball for home defense. (Use safety gear when practicing)
Heilà alley ciao fratelllo. Italiano dopo mesi ti rivedo 😊😊… Cmq è uguale della mia vecchia ed intramontabile HDR 11 joule gen.1… bella potente e implacabile… Vedo che sei abbronzato .. ciao frà
I literally bought a gen 2 with my last check 3 weeks before seeing this. Had no idea a new generation was coming out but given how tricky it is to get even an airgun delivered in Massachusetts, getting a gun, 4 extra mags, a box of 6 c02, and 100 rubber riot ball ammo delivered in 48 hoursH that i don't regret it. Honestly it's a fun enough product and I got a decent deal so I'm not concerned. Also, Having grown up in one of the toughest on firearms states, target shooting id half the fun.
My Gen 2 puts an aluminum ball completely through the shell of a coconut ! It also shoots completely through 1/2 inch of plywood.
Does anyone know which gun is quieter the .50 or the .68? . Are there moderators available for either?
