TheUmarex Tornado 4.5mm BB CO2 is a striking wind revolver, firing BB'S shot, equipped with two accessory rails and a set of spare magazines.
Modern style
The Umarex Tornado 4.5mm BB CO2 has a modern design inspired by contemporary revolver models. A durable polymer with a matte finish is used for the frame, barrel and outer barrel, which perfectly imitates steel and provides a realistic look.
TheUmarex Tornado is equipped with two accessory rails in the 22mm Picatinny standard, allowing mounting of a laser target pointer, flashlight, as well as a collimator or optical sight.
The modern design of the air rifle is emphasized by the high profile of the barrel with characteristic porting, and the anatomically profiled handle with non-slip texture. The mechanical sighting instruments (musket and scimitar) have a low profile for easy drawing of the revolver from the holster.
Locking trigger mechanism
TheUmarex Tornado has an SA/DA trigger mechanism, allowing precise shooting with the cocking cock pulled back (single action) or dynamically with the use of self-trigger. In DA (dobule adction) mode, the trigger travel is longer and more force must be applied to overcome it.
Manual cocking in Single Action mode makes the trigger break (firing a shot) much faster and smoother.
The revolver uses an adjustable safety (in front of the cock), which, when activated, locks the trigger mechanism and eliminates the possibility of an uncontrolled shot during handling or as a result of a fall.
BB's 4.46mm ball shot
The revolver shoots 4.46 mm BB's steel shot loaded into a polymer cartridge. The magazine has a capacity of 10 shotgun shells, is mounted on the back of the imitation barrel and works similarly to a firearm, i.e. pulling the trigger tongue automatically rotates the cartridge.
The steel BB's shotgun is designed mainly for recreational shooting, such as for cans, bottles and reactive pellets. The set comes with as many as 3 magazines, increasing the comfort and dynamics of shooting, and by extension, the attractiveness of all the fun.
CO2 power supply
The Umarex Tornado 4.5mm BB CO2 is powered by carbon dioxide from a 12gCO2 capsule. One cartridge allows you to fire about 60 shots with a leveled initial velocity of about 120 m/s.
The performance of the shots is most influenced by the air temperature, the dynamics with which you shoot and proper valve maintenance. It is also important to remember that aCO2 capsule (punctured) can be left in the windgun for a maximum of 48 hours. After this time, the capsule must be removed or "shot".
Installation and replacement of the capsule are very simple, requiring only the removal of the lining, placing the capsule in the handle and tightening it with the pressure screw. This process is greatly facilitated by an Allen fixed to the cladding.
This simple solution means that the wrench is at hand all the time, thus avoiding the awkward situation in which we can't replace the capsule due to lack of a tool.
The Umarex Tornado air rifle is a great option for shooting enthusiasts who appreciate innovative solutions, unusual design and high quality workmanship.
