The Turkish airgun giant Hatsan introduces the tactically tuned air rifle Factor Sniper S in sand-coloured FDE.
The air rifle operates in a repeating mode, with a straight-pull cocking lever with a sufficiently long handle for reloading, which can be mounted on either side. The rifle is secured manually using the two-position safety located just above the trigger. The fully adjustable two-stage Quattro trigger is equipped with vertical and horizontal adjustment of the trigger blade position. When shooting, we can use a 19-shot magazine or a single-shot adapter.
Special attention deserves the option of adjusting the hammer spring tension and external adjustment of the regulator pressure.
The internal mechanism is powered by compressed air stored in a carbon bottle with a capacity of 480 cc and a working pressure of 300 Bar. The filling port is a male 1/8 BSP pin, for which a female quick-coupler is already included in the package. The current pressure in the bottle and at the regulator is shown by two separate manometers.
The shrouded Quiet Energy barrel with a length of 585 mm reduces the shot noise by up to 50%. Thanks to the 1/2 UNF thread, the suppression efficiency can be further increased by adding an external moderator.
The aluminium body features several mounting systems on its surface, including four weaver (22 mm) rails at the 3, 6, 9 and 12 o’clock positions, keymod and M-LOK slots, and a QD sling swivel, which is included in the package.
A chapter of its own is the modular Mil Spec stock with height-adjustable cheekpiece and laterally adjustable rubber butt pad. The setup is completed by an extendable monopod. For a stable grip on the rifle, a quality pistol grip is also needed; in this case you can choose between two options – the standard wooden one or the polymer one supplied separately in the box.
