About the Pardini K10
The Pardini K10 is an Italian single-shot pre-charged pneumatic 10-metre match air pistol chambered in .177 (4.5mm). Built by Pardini Armi for Olympic and ISSF air pistol competition, it is fed from a 250 bar compressed-air cylinder and features a perforated barrel with muzzle compensator for shot stability, a fully adjustable trigger with interchangeable dry-fire device, and an anatomical adjustable walnut grip. Its sight radius is adjustable between roughly 345 and 375 mm.
Pardini Armi, founded by Italian Olympic shooter Giampiero Pardini, is one of the most successful makers of competitive target pistols, and its air pistols are widely used by medal-winning shooters at the Olympic and World Cup level.
