Pre-charged Pneumatic (PCP) airguns are lighter and achieve higher velocities than any spring-piston airgun available today. Their unique design eliminates accuracy-robbing recoil and vibration, making PCP airguns extremely accurate. In fact, most Olympic-level target shooters use PCPs in competition for this very reason. Unlike most spring-piston guns, there is no need to hold PCPs in a special way, and the lack of recoil allows the use of telescopic sights, without the fear of damage often caused by harsh recoiling spring guns.
