About the Kral Puncher Breaker
The Kral Puncher Breaker is a Turkish pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) bullpup air rifle produced by Kral Arms. It uses a side-lever cocking action feeding a rotary magazine (12 rounds in .22, 14 in .177) and is powered by a removable 200cc air cylinder with an adjustable power output. Offered with Turkish walnut or synthetic stocks in .177, .22, and .25 calibres, the compact bullpup is a popular budget hunting and pest-control rifle known for its power and shot count relative to its price.
Kral Arms is a Turkish arms manufacturer based in Konya, founded in 1998, that produces shotguns and a broad range of affordable PCP air rifles. The Puncher Breaker helped popularise budget bullpup PCPs in the mid-2010s.
