KalibrGun Cricket 2 Tactical PCP Air Rifle

Ultra-Compact, Ultra-Consistent, Ultra-Accurate – A Bullpup Built for Performance

The KalibrGun Cricket 2 Tactical is a refined, modern evolution of one of the most celebrated bullpup PCP air rifles in recent history—the original Cricket Mk1. Built from the ground up with tactical functionality, regulated consistency, and exceptional accuracy in mind, this rifle is a serious contender for anyone demanding pellet-on-pellet performance from a compact and rugged platform.

 

🔥 300BAR Fill, Carbon Tank, and Regulated Precision

Unlike the standard Cricket 2, the Tactical version boasts a lightweight carbon fibre air tank that fills to 300BAR, delivering a huge shot count of approximately 200–300 shots per fill (calibre-dependent). Pair that with one of the most consistent regulators we’ve ever seen—achieving single-digit FPS spreads—and you’ve got a precision rifle that’s as efficient as it is compact.

 

🎯 Why the Cricket 2 Tactical Is a Standout Bullpup

  • Exceptionally Compact – Just 700mm in length, yet full power and full performance.
  • 450mm CZ Choked Barrel – A carefully matched twist rate and long choke deliver top-tier pellet stability.
  • 12-Groove CZ Barrel – Renowned for class-leading precision and consistency.
  • Sub-16 Joule Sweet Spot – Perfectly optimised for UK legal limits, with low friction and high efficiency.

 

This is one of the most accurate PCP rifles we’ve tested—period. Whether you’re benchresting, pest controlling, or stretching your paper-punching to new distances, the Cricket 2 Tactical doesn’t just hold its own—it sets the standard.

 

🔄 Advanced Rotary Magazine System – Built for Precision, Designed to Preserve Pellet Integrity

The KalibrGun Cricket 2 Tactical features one of the most advanced rotary magazine systems on the market. Unlike spring-loaded, self-indexing magazines—common in many PCP rifles—that often squash soft lead pellets during loading, KalibrGun’s mechanically indexed magazine ensures each pellet is chambered with total alignment and minimal contact.

 

This system offers exceptional consistency and reliability, allowing shooters to enjoy multi-shot convenience without sacrificing accuracy—eliminating the usual need to switch to a single-shot tray for best results.

 

🔢 Magazine Capacity:

  • .177 / 4.5mm: 14 shots
  • .22 / 5.5mm: 14 shots

 

⚙️ How It Works – Dual-Mode Operation:

The magazine system can operate in two selectable modes, giving you control over how it’s indexed depending on your preference:

 

  • Cock the rifle so the bolt is locked to the rear (open position).
  • Pull back the magazine retention pin at the front of the breech. This retracts the locking detent.
  • Insert the magazine from either side—the detent will prevent it from sliding through.
  • Lift the magazine gate, then push it forward to select a mode:
    • Midway Position – Manual Indexing Mode: You rotate the magazine by hand between each shot. This reduces the resistance during cocking and offers a smoother cycling feel for HFT or Benchrest shooters.
    • Fully Forward – Auto Indexing Mode: The final part of the cocking stroke rotates the magazine for you, enabling faster follow-up shots.

 

Unlike spring-loaded mags that rely on retention tension, the Cricket’s system ensures the probe always pushes the pellet directly and precisely into the breech without deforming it. This maintains the pellet’s integrity and flight stability—ideal for both target and pest control use.

 

🔇 Shrouded + Threaded for Stealth Shooting

The CZ barrel is fully shrouded for excellent sound suppression straight out of the box. If that’s not quiet enough, the muzzle is also threaded 1/2″ UNF to accept your preferred moderator—ideal for discreet pest control and back garden plinking alike.

 

🧨 Built as a Bullpup – Not Converted into One

Many bullpups suffer from spongey, rod-based trigger linkages. The Cricket 2 Tactical, however, was engineered as a bullpup from day one. The result? A crisp, predictable trigger with none of the slack or slop typically associated with this format.

 

🛠️ Features That Matter

  • Cocked Indicator – Know your status at a glance.
  • Manual Knock-Over Safety – Simple and intuitive.
  • 20MOA Picatinny Scope Rail – 220mm of real estate with a built-in incline for long-range optics.

FAQ

  • Spring-Piston (Break-Barrel or Underlever): Cock by compressing a spring. Reliable, no external air source needed, but can have more recoil (“spring twang”) and require technique to shoot accurately.
  • Pre-Charged Pneumatic (PCP): Filled from a scuba tank, compressor, or pump. High power, low recoil, multiple shots per fill. Popular for precision and hunting.
  • CO₂: Powered by disposable cartridges. Good for pistols and semi-auto/repeaters, but performance drops in cold weather.
  • Multi-Pump Pneumatic: Hand-pumped to build pressure. Versatile but requires effort.
  • Gas Ram (Nitro Piston): Uses compressed gas instead of a metal spring. Smoother than traditional springers.

Calibers: Most common are .177 (4.5mm) for speed/flat trajectory and general use, and .22 (5.5mm) for better hunting knockdown power. Larger “big bore” (.25, .30, .357+) exist for hunting bigger game where legal.

Yes, many modern PCP and springers deliver enough energy for small game (rabbits, squirrels, birds) and even larger game in some areas. Muzzle energy (in ft-lbs or joules) matters more than velocity alone. Always match caliber, pellet weight, and energy to the game and check local hunting regs.

Treat every airgun as if it is loaded.

  • Always point the muzzle in a safe direction.
  • Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.
  • Know your target and what is beyond it (pellets can ricochet or travel far).
  • Wear eye protection.
  • Store unloaded, out of reach of children/untrained users, and ideally locked.
  • Never shoot at hard surfaces or in areas where pellets could escape your property.

Follow these rules strictly—airguns cause real injuries.

Laws differ dramatically by country, state/province, and even city. Always verify current local laws before buying, owning, transporting, or using an airgun. Age restrictions (often 18+) are common.

Examples (summaries only; check official sources):

  • UK: Air rifles ≤12 ft-lbs (16.3 joules) and pistols ≤6 ft-lbs generally do not require a license (FAC needed above that).
  • USA: Varies by state. Some treat powerful airguns as firearms; others do not. Many states now allow big-game hunting with air rifles.
  • Canada: Some airguns classified as firearms if they exceed velocity/energy thresholds.
  • Australia: Often treated as firearms; licensing/registration required in most states.
  • EU/France/Belgium/etc.: Varies; many allow low-power (<20J) guns freely to adults, with higher power needing permits. Germany has strict ~7.5J limits in some contexts.
  • Other countries: Some have no restrictions below certain energies; others ban or heavily regulate them.

Resources: Wikipedia “Air gun laws”, airgun forums, or official government sites. For travel, research transit laws carefully.

Consider:

  • Purpose: Plinking/backyard → lower power springer or CO₂. Hunting/precision → PCP.
  • Budget: Entry-level springers are affordable; PCPs need a fill system (extra cost).
  • .177 vs .22: .177 easier for beginners/targets; .22 better for hunting.
  • Power source: Convenience vs performance.
  • Test pellets in your gun—accuracy varies.

Buy from reputable dealers and consider warranties.

  • Clean barrel periodically (especially if accuracy drops) with patches and appropriate tools/solvents. Avoid over-oiling.
  • Lubricate moving parts and seals with airgun-specific oil (not general gun oil). Springers need piston seal oil occasionally.
  • Check screws, seals for leaks (PCP), and safety mechanisms regularly.
  • Store in a cool, dry place, ideally in a case. Avoid leaving cocked for long periods.

  • Wrong pellets for your barrel/caliber.
  • “Death grip” or poor shooting form (especially with springers—let the gun recoil naturally).
  • Loose scopes or mounts.
  • Ignoring safety or local laws.
  • Over-oiling or shooting with obstructions.

 

Pellets are the most common projectile (lead or lead-free). Match them to your gun, caliber, and purpose—test several brands as accuracy varies by barrel.

  • Domed (Round-Head): Best all-rounder. Excellent accuracy, ballistic coefficient, and energy retention. Ideal for target shooting, field target, and general hunting (e.g., JSB Exact, Air Arms Diabolo Field, H&N Field Target Trophy).
  • Wadcutter (Flat-Head): Clean holes in paper. Best for close-range target/plinking (under 20-25 yards).
  • Hollow Point: Expands on impact for better energy dump. Good for small game hunting (e.g., Predator Polymag, H&N Terminator).
  • Pointed: More penetration, but often less accurate than domed.
  • Slugs: Heavier, more aerodynamic for high-power PCPs at longer ranges (better for big game where legal).

Tips: Heavier pellets in .22/.25 for hunting (better momentum). Lighter in .177 for speed/flat trajectory. Always check head size fit (e.g., 4.51-4.53mm variants).

Muzzle energy (ft-lbs or joules) matters more than velocity. Ethical shots require precise placement (head/heart-lung) within effective range.

Rough Guidelines (adjust for distance, pellet, and local laws):

  • Small game (squirrels, rabbits, birds): 9-20+ FPE, .177/.22.
  • Medium (raccoons, etc.): 25+ FPE, .22/.25 recommended.
  • Larger game: 40-100+ FPE in .30+ calibers (up to big bore for deer/hogs where permitted).

PCPs dominate serious hunting due to power and shot count. Springers/gas rams work well for small game but require skill. Always prioritize clean kills and check seasons/species rules.

  • Barrel Cleaning: Use a pull-through kit or rod with patches. Avoid brushes that could damage rifling. Clean when accuracy drops or after 500-1000 shots.
  • Lubrication: Airgun-specific silicone oil for seals/O-rings (sparingly—excess causes dieseling in springers). Springers may need piston lube periodically.
  • PCP Specific: Check for leaks (soapy water test), monitor regulator/hammer settings, and keep fill systems clean. Don’t exceed rated pressure.
  • General: Tighten stock screws, inspect for wear, store properly. Chronograph shots to track consistency.

Common Issues:

  • Inconsistent velocity → dirty barrel, bad pellets, or seal problems.
  • Spring “twang” → tuning or proper hold.
  • Low power → worn seals or under/over-pumping.

Toggle Content

  • Scopes: Airgun-rated (hold zero under recoil). 3-9x or 4-12x common.
  • Fill Systems: Hand pumps, compressors, or tanks for PCPs.
  • Safety Gear: Eye/ear protection, targets with backstops.
  • Noise: Airguns quieter than firearms, but moderators help further.

Budget Tip: Start with a quality springer (~$150-400) before investing in PCP setup.

Airgunning offers endless depth—from backyard plinking to precision competition and ethical hunting. Prioritize safety, legality, and practice. If you want specifics (e.g., recommendations for a country, budget, hunting small game, or a particular type like PCP vs springer), let me know for more targeted info! Shoot responsibly.

Tuning improves accuracy, reduces noise/recoil, or increases power (within legal limits).

  • Springers: Lighter springs, guides, seals, or custom tuning kits for smoother shot cycle. “V-Mach” or similar professional tunes popular.
  • PCPs: Regulator tuning, hammer spring adjustments, valve work for efficiency and shot count. Some add electronic systems.
  • Accessories: Suppressors (often unregulated on airguns), better triggers, stocks, and scopes.

Caution: Check laws—power increases may reclassify your gun. DIY only if experienced; professional tuners recommended.
