Ekol ES P66 Compact is an air pistol for steel BBs in .177 / 4.5 mm calibre. When you pick it up for the first time, you will notice it is very similar to the Browning HP 35 pistol – it looks almost identical.
It is an improved version of the Ekol ES 66 Compact pistol and at the same time a shorter version of the Ekol ES P66. Compared to its predecessor – the Ekol ES 66 pistol – it is almost half as light, weighing only 525 g. The manufacturer achieved this thanks to the fact that, unlike the all‑metal ES 66 Compact, the ES P66 Compact has only the slide made of metal. The frame is made of high‑quality, durable polymer. The P66 Compact model additionally has a 22 mm Weaver rail under the barrel, where you can mount a torch or a laser.
The Ekol ES P66 Compact is powered by a 12 g CO2 cartridge, which is inserted into the magazine. In addition to the cartridge, the magazine holds 14 steel BBs. Handling the gun is very simple. Before shooting, just install the cartridge and fill the magazine with BBs.
The manufacturer produces this pistol in three different colour variants. This specific one is the Ekol ES P66 Compact chrome. The models differ only in the colour of the slide. The materials used are identical in all cases.
