Umarex AirSaber PCP Arrow Rifle

  

Air Archery combines the advantages of an airgun with the positive features of a crossbow. This generation of technically sophisticated arrow rifles is made for sports and recreational use as well as for hunting purposes. The Umarex AirSaber is the perfect example of such a hybrid. With its conspicuous 200-bar tank, typical stock and bolt-handle, it strongly resembles a classic airgun.

But the projectiles reveal that there's a crossbow in its DNA. Instead of pellets it fires special hollow arrows that are accelerated straight to their target from the internal projector. This design results in considerably enhanced precision for an archery device. The difference from a conventional bow or crossbow is that the arrows are not propelled from the back, but directly from behind the arrow head, free of vibration. In addition, there are no bulky limbs to handle and no bowstring to be pulled back with great effort.

Then cock the trigger, release the safety and shoot. The AirSaber comes with three carbon arrows and a 4 x 32 telescopic sight with a crossbow reticle for mounting on the Picatinny rail.
