A very decent air rifle at a promotional price. It's not some unbranded B3; the workmanship and finish are at a good level. Everything here is much more refined and works as it should. Shooting itself is enjoyable, the recoil is quick and moderate, which allows for accurate shooting. If the stock looked nicer, this model would probably be much more popular.
Snowpeak GU1200S Air Rifle 4.5 mm - Black
Air rifle equipped with a bottom gas-spring cocking mechanism, threaded barrel, and a polymer handguard. Engineered for firing 4.5 mm diabolo pellets, delivering muzzle velocities reaching up to 300 m/s. Designed for both recreational shooting as well as more advanced uses.
Polymer handguard, 11 mm rail
Constructed from lightweight and robust polymer material, the handguard ensures durability in demanding conditions. The stock features a contoured cheek pad, designed to accommodate both right- and left-handed users. Enhanced grip grooves offer improved hand stability during operation. A rubber foot at the stock’s end effectively absorbs recoil energy upon firing. Mounted atop the body are mechanical sighting devices, featuring a fiber-optic front sight and an adjustable rear sight, along with an 11 mm mounting rail (dovetail) for the attachment of various optical sights.
Gas spring, threaded barrel, fuse
The GR1600W variant features a threaded barrel measuring 480 mm and a gas spring, delivering greater shot consistency while enabling the air rifle to operate more quietly and smoothly compared to models with traditional springs. Thanks to the gas spring, performance levels remain stable over extended periods of use. The spring is cocked via a lower tension system, enhancing precision, offering more comfortable reloading, and improving overall safety during operation. A manual safety catch positioned within the trigger guard provides reliable protection against accidental firing.

Very good and solid air rifle, I bought a scope for it and it performs very well. Calibrating the scope was also enjoyable, but you can shoot without it as well, it works just fine. You have to remember about the safety catch before each shot, but it doesn’t change anything, and the heavy underlever is something you get used to. Overall, I highly recommend it.

The carbine is quite heavy, long, stable, requires considerable strength to cock the spring. The trigger operates smoothly and pleasantly, without jamming. Shooting at 20 meters with support, iron sights: 10 shots within a 12 cm diameter circle. After mounting a 6x32 scope, grouping within a 5 cm diameter circle. A recreational firearm, but extremely effective, I recommend it.
