Taipan Veteran II TAC 550mm 6,35mm Tactical Laminate Grey

If you have ever shot or handled the Taipan Veteran, you know how well-made and accurate it is. The gun received an overwhelming reception and was highly praised for its accuracy and excellent trigger. As the time moves on, so does technology and trends in the airgun world and this applies to Taipan as well. And now the time has finally come to present to you its latest iteration – the Veteran II.

It is so much more than just an upgraded version of the first-gen Veteran. Think of it as a completely new rifle, which builds upon the success of its predecessor and takes it even further.

Veteran II received a number of major improvements and chief among them is the completely reworked cocking mechanism, which was moved forward to be placed just above the trigger – in the perfect reach of your trigger finger. The side lever also has an exceptionally smooth action and you can now easily switch it to the other side of the rifle. 

The free floating barrel is another prominent new feature. Unlike the original Taipan, the barrel is now completely free of any bands. This means that the barrel will always hold your zero and won’t be susceptible to weather conditions or the movement of the other parts of the rifle. 

The barrel is also fully shrouded and its twist rate was especially designed for slugs. Taipan Veteran II Tactical is shipped with an extended sound moderator.

The rifle comes outfitted with a 480cc kevlar air bottle. The maximum working pressure is 300 bar and the pressure regulator has been tweaked for increased performance.

The 20 MOA Picatinny rail on the top of the barrel is in the same axis with the barrel and offers an unparalleled accuracy. Another mounting rail is located in front of the trigger guard and offers an excellent spot to attach a bipod.

The beautiful laminate stock from Czech producer KLINSKY is made of finnish birch and ensures good ergonomic properties and comfort while taking aim.

The only thing that remained the same is the trigger mechanism. You can’t improve on perfection as they say and the trigger on the Veteran II is as crisp as ever. Manual safety is still placed in front of the trigger as well.

On request we can swap the charging lever from the right to the left side of the air rifle.

NEW UPGRADES

This modified version of the Taipan Veteran II air rifle is newly equipped with the popular ADF (Anti Double Feed) system, which prevents loading a pellet into the barrel if there is already one inside.

Additional changes apply to the side lever handle, which now offers a tactical look with a grooved surface. However, if you prefer the original one, you'll find it in the package as well.

The last tweak has involved the Kevlar cartridge (Tactical version only), which allows you to detach it under pressure without having to drain any air. This will be particularly appreciated by anyone who likes to carry spare cartridges on them.
