Equivalents to Slavia air rifles

Despite the fact that the production of Slavia air rifles ended several years ago, there is still a great demand for them. Models 630 and 631 were very popular due to their tradition (they were produced for several decades) and their quality. In the Slovak Republic they were used for a long time as the only accepted air rifles in children's shooting rings. As these shooting rings were mainly held in gyms within schools, the advantage of these models was the limited projectile energy of up to 7.50 Joule. So, let's take a look at what other break barrel air rifles offer us limited power up to 7.50 J.

WHICH MODELS OF AIR GUNS ARE ALSO SUITABLE FOR LEFT-HANDED SHOOTERS?

Not every airgun is optimized for left-handed use. Models and versions that are exclusively for right-handed use have some controls tuned and adapted for right-handed use only. For example, this may be the placement of the safety, its operation, the actual shaping of the stock or handguard, and more. Therefore, the control and operation of such weapons may be uncomfortable for a left-handed person, which may affect the quality and accuracy of shooting. For this reason, various manufacturers also offer models of air pistols, rifles and revolvers that are neutral to operate and can be easily handled by left- and right-handed users, and models that are designed exclusively for left-handed users. Read on and together we'll take a look at selected airgun models suitable for left-handed users.

When hunting, you need the best air rifle possible and, most importantly, you should know how to use it. In all the years that air rifles have been around, there have been a large number of calibers that have been used to hunt smaller animals – e.g., rabbits and foxes.

Many professionals use air rifles for training during the off-season. Shooting and training with them is inexpensive, noiseless, undemanding, and you can train with them at home in the backyard, or in more extreme cases, even inside the house (with proper precautions).

Competitive air rifle shooting is very popular in many countries and has even found its place in Commonwealth Games and Olympic Games. There are several disciplines for both men and women.

Modern air rifles serve several purposes - from hunting for pleasure and sport, to pest reduction. For pests such as mice, rats and crows, conventional air rifles with a range of approximately 28-30 meters will suffice. However, if you are serious about air rifles and hunting, range is one of the factors you should think about when choosing an air rifle. You don't want a shot animal to escape and live the rest of its life with a bullet in its body. Let's look together at all the factors that make a quality air rifle. Please note, however, that you can only hunt with an air rifle if you are a properly licensed hunter.
