The Turkish manufacturer Kral Arms has earned its position in the PCP air rifle segment thanks to its pricing, quality, and accessories. The Puncher Maxi series is this manufacturer’s entry-level line. By its design, the air rifle ranks among classic long guns.
The polymer stock fits well in the hands. The cheekpiece is adjustable, so every shooter can set their preferred height. In addition, the stock is checkered at the grip area. The shape is universal, making it suitable for both right- and left-handed shooters. The manufacturer also considered the option of attaching a bipod and added a Weaver rail on the underside of the fore-end, so there is no need to modify the stock in any way.
The barrel is finished with a cap that conceals a 1/2 UNF thread for mounting an external sound moderator.
The rifle is cocked via a side lever. The magazines are self-indexing. The magazine in 4.5 mm calibre holds 14 pellets, and in 5.5 mm calibre it holds 12 pellets. The air rifle is also equipped with a manual safety to prevent accidental discharge.
The air cylinder can hold 280 cc of air. You can mount a scope on the integrated 22 mm rail.
Our experience: An air rifle designed for those who are not comfortable with the shortened bullpup version. The stock fits very well in the hands and the adjustable cheekpiece is always a bonus.
