10X GEN3i Inertia Fed
This patent-pending 10X GEN3i technology features a sleek and stylish design combined with horizontal inertia fed magazine integration. The magazine indexes using the inertia force from the recoil of the air rifle, creating a smoother and more precise breech loading process.

Custom Action Trigger (C.A.T.)
The revolutionary C.A.T. enables air rifle owners to independently adjust the first and second stages of their trigger. This allows you to tailor the trigger pull and crispness to your personal preference. Simply loosen the first stage adjustment screw to increase trigger travel, or tighten it for a shorter travel length. The second stage adjustment is made just as easily – unscrew the adjustment setting to increase the second stage travel length or decrease it by screwing in the same adjustment point.

Recoil Reducing Rail (RRR)
The RRR was developed to subdue the taxing stresses placed on your scope from the intense recoil of air guns and high-powered rifles. The Recoil Reducing Rail uses patent-pending two-piece aluminium construction separated by dual polymer struts to absorb the shockwaves generated by the recoil. Once the scope is mounted to the Recoil Reducing Rail, the recoil stresses to its internal components are reduced by almost 100%. This ensures scope reliability, reduced vibration, and dead-on accuracy, preserving your scope’s lifetime for extended use in the field.

Manual Safety: The manual safety is a lever located on the side of the action. Pushing it forward disengages the safety, while pulling it backwards (towards the trigger) engages it. Always ensure the safety is engaged until you are ready to shoot.

Automatic Cocking Safety System: This safety feature prevents the trigger from being pulled while the air rifle is being cocked. It engages when the barrel is broken open and disengages once the barrel is returned to its firing position.
