PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Machine translated

Taipan Veteran is a prime example of a PCP air rifle with a popular bullpup configuration. Although the brand’s roots go back to Ukraine, all Taipan air rifles are assembled and finished in the Czech Republic. The workmanship is top-class thanks to precision machining of parts on modern CNC machines. The stocks are wooden. Aircraft-grade aluminium and top-quality steel are used for the remaining parts.

The Standard version is the best-selling type of this gun. It maintains an ideal balance between good handling, accuracy and cylinder size. Its overall length is only 705 mm, but thanks to the bullpup design it features an excellent 460 mm long barrel. Taipan air rifles use barrels from renowned brands such as Česká Zbrojovka and Lothar Walther. The muzzle is threaded 1/2 UNF and fitted with an effective sound moderator. Shooting is therefore surprisingly quiet.

The air cylinder runs almost the full length of the rifle and is finished with a clear Wika manometer. The cylinder capacity is 291 cm3 of air. For mounting a riflescope you will use a 22 mm Weaver rail, which is positioned in the centre of the rifle and canted by 20 MOA, making it ideal for long-range shooting.

Loading is done using a side lever mechanism, which is very precise and easy to operate. Here, the Taipan has received several important innovations. The first is the fact that it is impossible to load a pellet twice, so accidental barrel blockage cannot occur. The second concerns the barrel area and the air port, which have been designed to prevent pellet deformation. The side lever can also be swapped to the other side, which will be appreciated especially by left-handed shooters.

If you look at the workmanship of the individual parts, for example the trigger mechanism, you will see the high standard of execution. In this respect it outperforms much more expensive air rifles. The fully adjustable trigger mechanism is among the very best currently found on an air rifle. In front of the trigger there is a manual safety.

The weight of the Standard model is 3350 g. The package includes two magazines, each with a capacity of 10 shots, a single-shot tray adapter and a quickfill adapter.
