Sig Sauer ASP20 Air Rifle
SIG SAUER ASP20 air rifle delivers down-range power and accuracy with the lightest cocking effort in its class, making it the ideal break-barrel single-shot .177 or .22 for hunting small game. Proprietary GlideLite™ mechanism cocks at 33 pounds instead of the typical 48 to 52 pounds. Powerful gas piston then fires .8.64-grain .177 lead pellets at 1,021 feet a second; .22 achieves 841 ft/s with 14.65-grain lead pellet. Down-range accuracy and retained energy are both better with lead projectiles leaving the barrel at subsonic speed rather than lightweight alloy projectiles fired at supersonic speed. Shorter, larger-diameter action also brings the pivot point closer to the body making the rifle even easier to cock and also better balanced for shooting. ASP MatchLite® two-stage trigger can be user-adjusted to smoothly break at 2.5 to 4 pounds. Proprietary breech-lock precisely aligns the rifled steel barrel to the action for consistent accuracy. Safety located outside the trigger guard for easy engagement with trigger finger on right or left hand. Offered in synthetic or wood stock. MSRP: $399.99 for synthetic, wood stock $489.99.
