If you have ever shot a Taipan, you already know what a high‑quality and accurate rifle it is. However, technology and trends in the world of air rifles are moving forward relentlessly, and despite the overwhelming wave of positive feedback, the manufacturer did not want to rest on their laurels. This brings us to the brand‑new model Taipan Veteran II.
This is not just a slightly upgraded second generation of the popular PCP where someone simply added a Roman numeral II. It is a completely new rifle which is structurally based on its predecessor, but elevates almost all of its aspects to a completely different level.
Probably the most striking new feature is the completely redesigned loading mechanism, which is now located directly above the trigger. You can therefore reload the rifle biathlon‑style with just one finger. This effectively eliminates the common issue that plagues most bullpups, where shooters, due to the rear position of the cocking lever, feel like a Tyrannosaurus rex. Also worth mentioning is the very smooth action of the entire mechanism and the option to switch the lever to the other side.
Another major improvement is the free‑floating barrel. Unlike the original Veteran, the barrel is no longer held in place by any barrel bands, but by the design of the rifle itself. This ensures the barrel will always hold zero regardless of ambient temperature, mechanical wear of the bands, or cylinder expansion.
The barrel is also fully shrouded and its rifling has been specially designed for use with slugs. At the muzzle you will find an external sound moderator, which has been significantly extended compared to the standard version.
Kevlar cylinder has a capacity of 480cc. The maximum fill pressure is 300 bar. The pressure regulator has also been modified to achieve the most optimal performance possible.
The top Picatinny rail with a 20 MOA incline is perfectly aligned with the barrel, offering unrivalled accuracy. Another mounting rail is located on the underside of the frame, which is an ideal position for attaching a bipod.
The ergonomically shaped pistol grip follows the AR-15 standard and, if needed, you can replace it with any commercially available grip designed for this rifle platform. Overall comfort is further enhanced by the rubber buttpad.
The trigger mechanism is probably the only thing that has remained unchanged from the original version. They say you can’t improve perfection, and after trying the trigger pull we can only agree. The manual safety is still located inside the trigger guard, just in front of the trigger.
On request, we can switch the cocking lever from the right to the left side of the air rifle.
The 2024 version does not include the ADF (Anti‑Double Feed) system, the possibility to remove the cylinder under pressure, or the new cocking lever handle.
