Air Rifles
Colleagues amateur weapons constantly create posts about the different types of rifles, pistols, ammunition and so on. I decided to start with the most simple and accessible, but also weapons - pneumatics.
What is this air gun?
Airguns - a kind of small arms in which the projectile flies under the influence of gas under pressure.
The word "air" is derived from ancient Greek. πνεῦμα «wind, breath».
In accordance with the Russian Federal Law "On Weapons", pneumatic weapon is defined as "weapons designed to hit a target at a distance of a projectile receiving directed movement by the energy of compressed, liquefied or solidified gas»

Airguns are very different, and how it works is also different. Here are the main types:
Blowguns, throwing a projectile in which light is produced by force arrow;
Spring-piston pneumatic, in which compressed air is throwing bullets produced at the moment of the shot by the movement of the piston inside the cylinder massive which is accelerated by the expandable spring:
Gazopruzhinnaya pneumatics, in which the role of the coil spring serves to compress gas
Electro weapon - in which the contraction of the mainspring at the expense of the energy stored in the battery;
Pneumatic gas balloon, which is used for throwing bullets gaseous phase of carbon dioxide (CO2):
with integrated refillable tank;
with replaceable cylinder;
Compression pneumatics, in which compressed air is released for throwing a bullet when fired from a special collection chamber. Air is pumped into the collection chamber before each shot by means located on the gun hand pump:
Compression - with a single hand-pumped (platoon);
Multikompressionnaya - with multiple hand-pumped;
Pneumatic pre-pumped bellows, or air, in which compressed air is shot dispensed from the reservoir located on the arms, filling the container with compressed air is provided from an external source: manual or electric compressors, high pressure cylinders with compressed air, helium;
Airguns on gaslift, which uses special reusable cartridges, filled with compressed air. Structurally, gaslift similar weapon on a fire, there are special kits for the adaptation of firearms under gaslift to reduce the cost of training him and recreational shooting.
Pneumoelectric weapon which additionally comprises a combustible member arranged to be in contact with the compressed gas, and when the shot is combusted in the compressed gas ([1]).
Piropnevmaticheskoe weapon, it is a pneumatic fuel gas is essentially a transitional stage from pneumatics to firearms. In use as a propellant mixture of propane-butane with air, gasoline-air mixture. Allows automatic fire.
It is also classified according to its pneumatic power:
3 J., any caliber - according to the law of the Russian Federation is not a weapon [2], is intended for initial training in shooting and plinking;
3 J. caliber 6 or 8 mm - t. n. "Airsoft Gun» c simulated appearance of the weapons of war. Basically, automatic weapons, driven by an electric motor, but also circulated gas and spring model. Ammunition - plastic balls (BB) in diameter 6 or 8 mm. Suitable for recreational shooting and military-sports games "airsoft". According to the law of the Russian Federation and not a weapon;
about 3, 5 J, caliber 10 mm - for playing "Paintball", apparently copying the real weapon (RAM - Real Action Marker), the Russian Federation is not a weapon, and is classified as a sports equipment;
up to 7, 5 J, caliber 4, 5 mm - sporting and hunting air guns, air guns for initial training in shooting and plinking is also used for military-sports games - "hardbol»;
about 14 J, 17 gauge, 3 mm - used in military-sports game "Paintball" in the Russian Federation is not a weapon, and is classified as a sports equipment;
more than 7, 5 and 25 joules gauges 4, 5; 50; 5 5; 6, 35 mm - r. N. magnum pneumatics. Sport and hunting air weapons in Russia is sold under license from the Ministry of Interior and requires registration as a firearm;
25 J and above almost any caliber - sporting and hunting air guns, air guns for military use (training of fire) in Russia, mostly not been certified as the existing legislation does not provide for the existence of airguns with muzzle energy above 25 J and in this connection the turnover of its legislation does not settled (in fact - is certified according to category 3 J as konsturktsiya many kinds of airguns can adjust the muzzle velocity over a wide range).
Consider the basic available in our stores air rifles. Let's start with our usual "perelomok." Rifles threaded and are used only for firing lead bullets.
The most familiar in our country pnevmatichka - a MR 512, popularly called "Murka". Each of us was shooting out of it in the dash.
It is the most common air rifle in Russia and are often considered the best in terms of price and quality. Watershed construction and the relative simplicity of the internal devices provide high reliability.
The rifle is advantageously made of steel. Stock material: stained birch, walnut, beech, plastic boxes are made combined. Established sights consist of a rectangular front sight and the rear sight in the ring, adjustable vertically and horizontally. Steel rifled barrel has 6 right-grooves and a length of 450 mm. At the top of the receiver is directing "dovetail" width of 11 mm for the installation of optical and collimator sights.
There is an automatic safety that blocks the trigger while cocking. Button fuse, which is located in front of the trigger. Before each shot, it is necessary to move towards the trigger. Cost of 3000 and above.
IL-60
MR-60 (formerly IL-60) - spring-piston rifle cocked which the side lever. Modern design: USM is ahead of spring-piston, which essentially is in the butt, which is adjustable in length, which improves accuracy. The rifle is suitable for initial training in sports shooting at targets 10 meters.
Among the advantages of rifles worth noting the presence of 11 mm dovetail mount for mounting optical and collimator sights and a big barrel length (400-450 mm, depending on the manufacturer and year of manufacture).
There are modifications of IL-61 (different multiply charged), another IL-60 was produced in the factory ZMZ (up to 2000) - it is a little different form otlichie- clutch barrel, less persistent and burnishing more "rough" plastic forearm and butt. Just based on ZMZ produced IL-60 rifle made semizaryadnaya IL-60M.
In the early 1990s, small-batch produced IL-60 rifle "luxury" - a wooden forearm and butt, and a hybrid of the AK-104 and IL-60 released 10 edition especially for special guests Izhmash. The same work was done to increase the power of the rifle by the higher value of the stroke project was called IL-62, but not commercially produced, although appeared in brochures IzhMeha.
The rifle comes in two versions: 1) the metal sleeve of the barrel and trigger-from 1992 to 2000. 2) With plastic sleeve barrel and firing mechanism (dubbed MR 60, according to the new classification) - from 2000 to today. Price approximately 4000r.
However, there is no limit to perfection, and, usually, the shooter, played enough with the weak domestic models, and proceeds to import or notebook.
Gamo Delta Fox - the ideal rifle for recreational shooting at small distance. A powerful "Murka" 25 percent, or more precisely, it is easier. Costs about 6000r.
Delta Fox quickly bored. We need to move to a new class - Magnum, that is powerful. Under Russian law, such rifles already need permission, but in fact you just sell the store rifle with a weakened spring, you are on your own risk change to normal, resulting in a rifle about the same power that it befits.
A perfect example of such a screw is Gamo hunter 440. Speed departure bullets polgrammovoy is about 260 meters per second, ideal for shooting at 50 m. The price tag of about 12000r.
Norica Storm - Norica Storm
Excellent powerful rifle magnum class with an expensive nut execution. Airspeed polgrammovoy bullets about 280 meters per second. It costs about 15000r.
Who played enough with the class Magnum, usually goes into SuperMagnum - the most powerful perelomki. In this class, the leadership belongs to three rifles.
Diana 350 Magnun - Mercedes pnevmatichek in the world. Fine, light for its class, beautiful and desirable. To the manufacturer airspeed polgrammovoy bullet 380 meters per second. Price from 24000r
Gamo 1250 - the golden mean in SuperMagnume. And the price is not very high, and the quality level. Just released a bullet with a speed of 380 meters per second, but is already cheaper - from 20000r.
Hatsan 125 - SuperMagnum from the Turkish producer. In the opinion, as luck - you can buy supergaubitsu and possible marriage. Not as accurate as the two predecessors, but the same powerful. People say, "perforate the bucket." Speed departure bullets as 380 meters per second.
Price to 10000r.
Usually, playing with the rifle class SuperMagnum, pnevmanuty man goes in a completely different class - rifles with pre-pumped, or PCP-guns. But I'll tell you about them in a separate review.
Thank you for your attention! Add your own model. Shoot carefully!
