Umarex started producing gas and signal guns in 1972, at that time the highest quality on the market. This gave the company a dream‑like kick-off. Later, they added air rifles. And when two leading men in the company, Wulfa-Heinze Pflaumer and Franz Wonisch, came up with the idea of making gun replicas, no one knew it would be a gold strike.
It all began with the first model RECK PK 800. It is absolutely faithful to the original Walther PPK, which appeared 18 times in Bond movies. Today, the brand has the right to use licenses from world‑famous manufacturers and therefore makes perfect imitations of pistols and revolvers by Walther, Colt, Browning, Reck, Smith & Wesson and BERETTA.
When it comes to long air guns, the company offers 4 types. The basic models are classic break‑barrel rifles such as Hammerli 750 combo. The second type is spring‑piston air rifles with underlever cocking such as Hammerli 900 Combo. The third type: CO2 guns, including the popular Airmagnum 850 model. And to complete the four: PCP guns with a modern metal design.
Today Umarex makes almost everything you can think of: airsoft guns, optics, tactical gloves and handcuffs, ammunition and filling equipment and other firearm accessories.
