The RX-2 uses a "gas spring" powerplant. A sealed chamber of air is actually the mainspring of this amazing air rifle. The RX-2 is cocked like any other barrel-cocking spring piston air rifle, the single cocking action compresses a cylinder of air, when the trigger is pulled the compressed air expands and drives the piston forward, thus discharging the pellet. Unlike a pneumatic or precharged airgun, the sealed air is never released. And unlike a steel mainspring, a "gas spring" can never take a set, or tire with age.

The RX-2 is available in .177, .20 and 22 calibers. Standard all metal tunnel foresight with interchangeable inserts, all metal rear sight with click micrometer adjustment for windage and elevation. The RX-2 comes with 11 mm grooves machined into the top of the receiver for scope use. The classy laminated wood stock is incredibly tough and durable, and less likely to be affected by adverse weather conditions. The non-adjustable two-stage "Elite" trigger unit is crisp and predictable. The resettable automatic safety is located in front of the cast metal trigger guard.

Due to the extremely short lock time this air rifle has instead of recoil, a jolt during firing. The shorter lock time however aids in field accuracy, as there is less time for the shooter to "pull" off the target. And optional "Super Gas" charge by the Beeman gunsmiths will aid in smoothing the cocking effort and firing motion.

The RX-2 is truly a delightful airgun with superior power; a must have for every hunters collection.
