About the Kral Puncher Maxi
The Kral Puncher Maxi is a Turkish pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle chambered for .22 (5.5mm) pellets, fed from a removable rotary magazine. It uses an ambidextrous smooth side-lever cocking action, a regulated valve for consistent shot-to-shot velocity, a removable air cylinder charged to 200 bar, an adjustable power output, and a 1/2 inch UNF threaded muzzle for a moderator. Offered in synthetic and Turkish walnut stock versions, it is a popular value-priced hunting and target air rifle.
Kral Arms of Turkey built its reputation on affordable, feature-rich PCP air rifles; the Puncher family became one of the most widely sold budget PCP platforms in Europe, prized for delivering regulated performance and multi-shot magazines at a fraction of the cost of premium brands.
