A new product from the German manufacturer Umarex in the form of a spring-powered air rifle called Synergis Elite. Although at first glance it may resemble any other break-barrel, it offers a lot for a very attractive price.
This air rifle is powered by a classic spring, which is cocked using a steel underlever. The barrel is therefore fixed, allowing the air rifle to achieve higher accuracy.
Another special feature is the 10-shot magazine, which is automatically indexed when the underlever is cocked. Compared to the competition, this magazine, with its much simpler design, offers higher reliability. A small drawback is the fact that the air rifle cannot be used without the magazine inserted. Therefore, the package includes 2 pcs of magazine.
Due to the protruding magazine, the air rifle is not fitted with any open sights. Instead, the package includes a riflescope with variable magnification 3-9x40. A special feature of this air rifle are the 2 mounting rails. The first, an 11mm Dovetail rail, is located directly on the body of the air rifle, and attached to it is a raised polymer base with a standardised 22mm Picatinny rail. The safety is manual and is conveniently positioned in front of the trigger.
All of this is set in a lightweight polymer stock with textured sections on the fore-end and the grip. The stock is equipped with a classic rubber butt pad and a fixed cheekpiece.
