The BSA Meteor is one of the most successful air rifles ever made. With worldwide sales numbering millions and its popularity spreading by the day, the Meteor goes from strength to strength. Primarily a medium powered fun-gun and hunter-trainer, the BSA Meteor offers the ultimate in
terms of performance, durability and ease of use.
The Meteor’s robust, break-barrel design, manageable size and weight, and that easy-cocking action make it ideal for juniors or shooters of smaller stature. The solid beech, sporter stock and precise, single-stage trigger offer full control of each shot and each rifle comes complete with fully-adjustable open sights and scope mounting grooves. Shoot the Meteor Mk6 and you’re shooting a legend! |
