Taipan
It has only been a year since the Czech company Taipan unveiled the now extremely popular semi-auto air rifle Taipan SLASH – and now another major new product is coming.
We are finally getting the long-awaited 7.62 mm caliber (.30 cal). At the same time, a wide range of tuning accessories is also arriving, developed mainly in cooperation with the Czech company Air-G-Tac.
And the cherry on top? In this video, we are revealing the first-ever footage of the brand-new Taipan Spectre air rifle. It will feature an automatic valve, energy of up to 140 J, and a uniquely designed air bottle placement.
Epic Airguns
Another new product we were able to see at the exhibition was a new Czech PCP air rifle called Epic Vision. Although it clearly builds on the proven EPIC TWO model from the outside, the inside has been completely redesigned and the construction itself has also undergone several changes. Company director David Hanusek shows us in the video how the Vision differs from the TWO model and what accessories will come to market with it.
FX Airguns
We also visited the booth of the Swedish PCP air rifle manufacturer FX Airguns, where they introduced two new models - FX Dynamic MkII and FX Panthera MkII. Judging by the names, it is clear that these are rather upgraded versions of existing air rifles. So what makes them better?
AirMaks Arms
Of course, we also had to check out the new products from another Czech PCP manufacturer - the Prague-based company AirMaks Arms. For this year, they have prepared the new Krait Mk2 model with a number of improvements. How does it differ from the first version? More in the video.
Umarex
When IWA is mentioned, the German giant Umarex simply cannot be left out. Given its endless portfolio of new products, we focused on the most popular ones - new RAM weapons, a conversion kit for the TR 68 revolver, new CO2 pistols, and above all plenty of new compressors for filling air rifles.
And one last batch of photos to finish...
There were truly tons and tons of interesting air rifles and firearms at the exhibition. Although we tried to create as many video reviews as possible, unfortunately there was no time left for some of them. So here are at least a few photos from both new and world-renowned manufacturers.
