Artemis PP750 PCP Air gun 4.5 (.177) mm

Pneumatic air guns of the PCP type are quite similar in design to carbon dioxide-powered guns, but are usually dimensioned for a higher pressure.

They are mainly available in two variants: pump guns that are loaded between each shot and reservoir guns (usually called PCP guns - Pre-Charge Pneumatic) with an air tank that holds compressed air for several shots. Guns with air tanks are loaded using a special hand-operated pump or from a scuba tank or similar. The pressure varies between approximately 70-300bar.
