Colt Defender 4.5 mm BB CO2 is a compact air rifle with a metal construction, equipped with an adjustable rear sight, an integrated magazine, a quick CO2 cartridge replacement system, and a Picatinny rail for mounting additional accessories.
Colt Defender 4.5 mm BB CO2 is a handy air rifle powered by a 12 g CO2 cartridge, distinguished by precise finishing and great attention to detail. The pistol is made entirely of metal (except for the grip panels), which results in its weight of 724 g.
Such construction creates the strong impression of handling a real firearm, which will certainly appeal to shooting and military enthusiasts.
The air rifle has an external safety located on the right side of the frame. Aiming is carried out using mechanical sights consisting of a fixed front sight with a white mark and an adjustable rear sight.
The Colt Defender 4.5 mm BB CO2 features a short Picatinny rail that allows mounting additional shooting accessories.
The air rifle is powered by a 12 g CO2 cartridge that gives the fired pellets a velocity of about 134 m/s and allows up to 60 consistent shots. The CO2 cartridge is installed in the pistol grip after sliding off the grip panels.
This process occurs automatically after pressing the button that in the original firearm is used to release the magazine. Installing or replacing the cartridge is very simple and takes only a few seconds, without the need for additional tools.
The air rifle has an integrated magazine in the grip with a capacity of 16 pellets. The lockable magazine follower allows convenient gravity loading directly from the container.
The air rifle fires 4.46 mm steel BB pellets, which are designed for recreational shooting at reactive targets, cans, bottles, etc.
Unlike lead pellets, BBs do not deform even under pressure, which allows them to be safely loaded into high-capacity magazines. Air rifles firing round BB pellets have smooth barrels, which makes them best suited for shooting at short distances.
The DAO trigger mechanism (double action only) allows shooting exclusively using the self-cocking mechanism.
Solid metal construction, realistic detailing, high efficiency, and shot consistency make the Colt Defender 4.5 mm BB CO2 an excellent choice for people looking for a small air rifle for recreational shooting.
