Hatsan Usa Velox Fde Black Lede

There's a new air pistol on the blocks, and it's called the Velox! HatsanUSA Airguns' latest innovation in semi-automatic PCP air pistols. The Velox comes in two calibers--.22 and .25--with max velocities of 620 feet per second (fps) for the .22 and 580 fps for the .25-caliber model. What's unique about the Velox is that it promises a personalized shooting experience, with a threaded muzzle tip that allows you to install sound moderators, adjustable front and rear factory sights and an integrated optics rail that supports 11mm dovetail and 22mm Weaver mounts. 

Shootability is one of the keys to the Velox. With a steel upper receiver and a synthetic lower receiver, the Velox feels solid in the hand. The barrel shroud enhances stability and protects the precision-rifled and choked German steel barrel. It also features a checkered grip for added control and comfort, ensuring a steady hold for precise shooting.

Adding to the Velox's shootability is its new trigger system, which offers a light, smooth pull with a precise release for maximum accuracy with every shot. The Velox comes complete with two detachable, caliber-specific multi-shot magazines (and onboard storage in the grip!), allowing for rapid reloads.

The Velox boasts a detachable 55cc air cylinder that fills to 250 BAR, which allows for consistent power across its 20-shot capacity in .22 caliber and 17-shot capacity in .25 caliber. An external pressure gauge lets the shooter monitor the pressure at will, while a Foster quick-disconnect fitting makes refills fast and convenient. 

Adjustable fiber optic front and rear sights (with the rear sight being removable) offer customizable aiming solutions. The integrated optics rail supports 11mm dovetail and 22mm Weaver mounts, providing versatility for your choice of optic. 

The Velox also prioritizes safety with its manual push-button safety mechanism, allowing for secure handling. A custom-molded hard case is included, offering protection and convenience for transport. Whether you're an experienced shooter or new to the sport, the Velox is designed to elevate the shooting experience with unmatched power and precision.
