Product Information
Model 48 .22Cal Side Lever Air Rifle - NEW T06 Trigger
When RWS first introduced the Model 48, they expected it to become a classic. What was unexpected was its rapid rise to classic status among knowledgeable air gunners. This rifle propels pellets at 900 fps in .22Cal. ( our independent tests have shown the model 48 does indeed produce velocities right around 900 fps when using a RWS Hobby pellet weighing in at 11.9 grains, some rifles are slightly below 900 fps and others slightly higher). This tremendous power is generated by the use of a very robust spring piston power plant cocked by a side lever action. The action is mounted into an extended beech stock to reduce felt recoil and to aid in achieving accuracy potential. Not designed for the faint hearted, this is one impressive air arm, both in performance and presence. It fulfills its purpose as a potent, full-size sporting airgun suitable for either pest control or field target shooting, yet it does so with both balance and grace. The substantial one-piece stock allows for comfortable offhand shooting and adds to the overall sensation that the Model 48 is a force to be reckoned with. The rifle is fitted with a finely rifled, fixed barrel system loaded via sliding breech opening. Its full accuracy potential can be realized by the use of a quality airgun scope mounted to the 11mm scope rail. The model 48 now includes the new *TO6 trigger , ( adjustable for length of travel, first stage weight and trigger weight ), an adjustable rear sight, and an automatic safety. Lifetime Warranty. Made in Germany.
* Inside scoop- the TO6 trigger is a vast improvement over the original trigger installed on this rifle, the TO6 is crisp and light. Our pre-delivery tests show an average trigger weight of just over one pound on this excellent match quality unit from RWS.
