TheNorica Dream Rider 4.5 mm is a recreational air rifle with a classically broken barrel, ergonomic bed, compensator and fiber-optic sighting instruments of the Italian brand LPA, allowing shooting in low light.
The Norica Dream Rider 4.5mm is a great example of the combination of classic design and modern solutions, increasing the comfort of use and durability of the air rifle.
Modern polymer bed
The carbine's stock is made of durable polymer with a matte finish , which is resistant to mechanical damage, weather conditions and moisture.
Maintenance and cleaning of the plastic bed is limited only to general cleanliness and occasional use of silicone oil. The Monte Carlo-type symmetrical buttstock allows right- and left-handed shooters to comfortably assemble for shooting and use higher-mounted optics.
The recoil generated after firing is effectively absorbed thanks to the use of a solid rubber foot, which is also responsible for a stable point of support.
Fine mottling was appliedto the separated pistol grip and the front part of the bed, which improves hand grip and enhances the aesthetic qualities of the carbine.
Convenient loading
Thespring is tensioned by the classic "barrel break", a method most often used in spring-loaded windcheaters due to its convenient and simple operation. The spring of the air rifle is made of German high fatigue steel , which guarantees its durability and performance.
The carbine shoots diabolo shot in 4.5mm caliber, loaded directly into the barrel.
Precision and long range
A threaded barrel with a length of 454 mm is responsible for the accuracy and repeatability of the shots, thanks to which we can achieve repeatable focus after just a short training. At the end of the barrel is an aluminum compensator, which effectively reduces recoil after shooting and provides better accuracy.
The fired shotgun reaches a high initial velocity of about 250 m/s (~16 J), so we can also shoot accurately from the carbine at longer distances.

Safety in the foreground
The most important thing in shooting is safety, so when the spring is tightened ("breaking the barrel"), the fuse is automatically activated, which prevents an uncontrolled shot.
Before firing, it is necessary to turn off the safety each time, which is conveniently located in front of the trigger tongue. This affects the extremely easy unlocking of the carbine, which can be done even without interfering with the aiming process.
Modern sighting instruments
The Dream Rider carbine has been equipped with high-end fiber-optic sighting instruments from the Italian brand LPA, which specializes in the production of sights for firearms.
The fiber-optic rods with contrasting (green-red) colors are installed in the tunneling musket and the adjustable sights in the stock.
Thebright fiber-optics speed up the alignment of the bowtie and the pupil, and due to their high light absorption, also allow shooting in low or residual light, for example, after dark.
If you want to try your hand at shooting at a longer distance, you can also mount an optical sight of your choice on the 11mm rail.
