Externally Adjustable Pressure Regulator

To satisfy the most advanced shooters, we have developed a new pressure regulator for Priest series which allows the shooter to adjust pressure externally without having to empty the tank.

Pressure can be regulated from 50 bar to 200 bar.

It can be bought as an addition and can be fitted on all the Priests (old or new) and other rifles with the same thread. Thread on the bottle side is M18x1.5. Thread on the output side is G1/2-14.

Extended Stock with Adjustable Hammer Spring Screw

Externally Adjustable Pressure Regulator works best with the Extended Stock which allows the shooter to adjust hammer spring tension to desired setting, so optimal performance can be achieved.

Stock can be fitted to all versions of Priest.

20 MOA Angled Picatinny Rail

Due to high accuracy, long range shooting isn't a problem with the Priest 2. In order to be able to use your scope so far out, we developed a Picatinny Rail with a 20 MOA drop and is available as an addition.

Carbon Bottle 0.5L

In order to get an even lighter (200g lighter) and better balanced rifle with more shots per fill we are offering Carbon Bottle as an addition.

Carbon Bottle's volume is 0.5L whereas volume of Aluminium bottle is 0.35L. You can expect around 40 % more shots per fill.

Priest II Compact

Priest II is also available in Compact variant. Total length of 635mm.

Inter-changeable Calibers

No matter in which caliber you purchase the rifle, all you need to do, to change the caliber, is to buy a new caliber kit which contains barrel, pellet pusher and shroud cap which are all the necessary parts to do the transformation. (Barrel exchange tool is not included in the kit).

Ambidextrous Mag

Since the magazine is not centered, it can be inserted from both directions, so even if you are a lefty, the magazine is not in your way.

Threaded Muzzle

For those who want even quieter rifle, there's a 1/2" UNF thread under the cap so a moderator can be mounted.

Adjustable Trigger

First and second stage of the trigger can be easily adjusted down to 200g.

Two Picatinny and two Dovetails

Rifle is equipped with a 170mm of picatinny rail so you can fit whichever optics you prefer. Another picatinny is located on the bottom of the front body which can be used for any number of accessories, such as bipod. There are also two dovetails located on the side of the front body.

Shooting Arrows

For those who want to hunt bigger game, barrel for arrows is also available.

Powerful

In standard setup Priest achieves consistent 45J in caliber 5.5 (.22) throughout its whole bottle capacity which yields out more than 110 shots.

Youtube Review

Youtube review done by a reviewer Gregor Kamenšek which covers basically all the features and accuracy.

Pressure Test

Safety valve test and high pressure test of the bottle and threads. For more info of the test please check the video description.

First test is a test of a safety valve which should burst at 3000 psi (a bit over 200 bar).

Second test is a pressure test at 800 bar.

No Bounce

A lot of time was spent to acheive a perfect harmony of elements working together which at the end result as a system without hammer bounce and perfect valve closing time, which closes before the pellet leaves the barrel, that makes the rifle extremely efficient.
