The Edge is a coil spring, not a gas ram and the 95 has the Quattro trigger, the Edge does not. 95 has a walnut stock, Edge is plastic.

There are gas piston edges as well . I have one .

yes, I was referencing the one in the link.

Im familiar with the cosmetic differences...was more interested in performance...I like the camo, wish they had it in gas..thanks for the replies

My .22 striker edge(non vortex) is almost a year old. I have not shot a mod 95 so I can't offer a comparison but from the reviews I have read, the edge is very similar in performance. I have shot over a thousand rounds through her and I am still very happy with the power and accuracy I am getting. I have shot a variety of pellet brands and most performed satisfactory. My preferred ammo is the Crosman premiers ultra mags domed. I recently bought a tin of the new Hatsan .22 vortex supreme pellets and they are shooting excellent. I do not have a chrony but I would best "guestimate" my edge shooting in the 17-20 FPE range using the crosman and hatsan pellets.
Just a note on the trigger. The non quattro trigger on my edge has a very long first stage and has a pull of about 5 lbs. .

I've got two Striker Vortex, a.177 and a .25 and a VMX springer in .20. I bought the Strikers because they were on sale and I wanted a .25 in the collection, the VMX cause I wanted a cheap .20. You can get the trigger pull less on them with a longer trigger screw. My Strikers about 3lbs, VMX 2lbs 10oz.
But I shot my new .177 Webley Tomahawke springer first time yesterday. It's suppose to be same as a 95. It's a lot nicer than the Strikers or VMX. AOA $150 and a $130 Hawke scope for $30 if you get the gun. They tested it, mounted the scope, sent a tape with 8 shot muzzle velocities, 5 shot group at 23 yrs. with a picture of the group holes touching . Double Boxed and the inside box had foam padding like what comes in hard shell rifle case. $219 shipped. It seems as light as the Strikers. 7grs Hobbys 1025 fps. 10.34 JSB 820.

Based on my testing over several chronies? I'd say 16 to 18 as a high.
