Features of the PCP air rifle Optima by Hatsan AT44S-10 4.5 mm:
The Optima by Hatsan AT44S-10 rifle features an ergonomic polymer stock resistant to mechanical damage and weather conditions. The massive stock includes a dedicated pistol grip and an ambidextrous buttstock, allowing comfortable use by both right- and left-handed shooters. Fine texturing on the pistol grip and the fore-end improves control of the rifle. The rifle is equipped with a dual 11/22 mm rail for mounting optical sights and a Picatinny rail on the fore-end for installing additional accessories such as a bipod or flashlight.
The stock can be adjusted to the shooter’s physique thanks to a butt pad with adjustable height. This functionality allows the shooter to adjust the butt pad position according to body build, personal preference, and optic mounting height. The rifle features a precisely rifled barrel with a length of 585 mm finished with a choke that improves pellet guidance and sealing in the bore. The floating barrel ends with a 1/2” UNF thread allowing the installation of muzzle devices such as a sound moderator. The set includes adjustable fiber-optic iron sights that can be removed if needed.
The AT44S-10 is powered by a steel air cylinder with a capacity of 230 cc, which after full filling allows approximately 115 shots depending on the caliber and pellets used. Thanks to the built-in pressure gauge, the user can easily monitor the pressure and remaining air supply. The rifle uses aluminum 10-shot magazines. Reloading and chambering the pellet is performed using a smooth side-lever mechanism. During this action, the magazine rotates, the pellet is inserted into the barrel, and the hammer is cocked for the next shot.
The rifle achieves high accuracy thanks in part to the Quattro Trigger two-stage adjustable trigger. The shooter can independently adjust the first and second stage length and trigger pull weight, allowing tight shot groups after only a short period of training. The rifle features two safety mechanisms: the Anti-Knock System, preventing accidental discharge in case of a fall or strong impact, and an automatic safety located at the rear of the receiver.
The set includes accessories: two 10-round magazines, a Quick-Fill charging connector, sling swivel mounts, and a set of seals.
The pellet fired from the rifle reaches a velocity of up to 250 m/s.
