The Texas based parent of industry leaders Airforce Airguns and BKL Technologies is proud to announce the formation of their latest venture, AirForce International. As the name implies, the new company will join Airforce Airguns in the expanding realm of pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) airgun systems.
The new company will be importing and distributing some of the finest pre-charged shooting systems the rest of the world has to offer.
“I have been going to IWA and other international shows for years and seeing great pre-charged airguns,” commented AutoNumatic CEO John McCaslin. “Most of them are fairly expensive, and generally not imported into the US in any quantity. We felt it was time to capitalize on our experience marketing PCP airguns in the US and offer some of these other designs through the distribution channels developed by AirForce Airguns and BKL Technologies. It was time American airgun enthusiasts were able to buy these pre-charged guns.”
AirForce International is negotiating with top airgun craftsmen in Europe to be able to bring those names to America.
The first to become available will be the Cometa line of airguns. Heirs to a centuries-old tradition of high quality gun making, Carabinas Cometa are specialists in the development of craftsman-built air guns.
Cometa have taken their extensive experience in manufacturing spring piston airguns and parlayed it into the development of the exciting new Lynx PCP.
All components of Cometa airguns are manufactured in Spain. The barrels are precisely drilled and later cold hammer forged in machines especially made for this process. All the airguns are individually tested and calibrated .
