Rifle Rifle: rules of choice, history and some recommendations

In appearance, the spring-piston mechanism in the arms seems obsolete and ineffective. The RFP rifle, although it has a rather complex design in comparison with other types of pneumatic weapons, but is one of the permanent samples for fans of sports or training shooting. There are many factors affecting the quality and power of the spring-piston mechanism, so finding the right option takes a long time.

Beginners are very often as basic skills acquire pneumatic rifles RFP and only after a detailed study of their transfer to other types of sports weapons.

The reliability of the spring-piston device is that there is no system of by- pass valves and a container containing compressed air. Inside the cylinder, the process of the piston moves to compress the working spring. Thanks to this, the weapon is cocked and holds the trigger mechanism in its firing position. When a shot is fired, the spring is released and the piston is moved with all force, which compresses all air and pushes out the bullet with great pressure. The Rifle Rifle is equipped with a fully autonomous device, so no additions are required to use it. It is enough only to break the charging mechanism and insert the cartridge into the breech of the weapon.

Rifle RFP is convenient and easy to maintain. It is enough to have small technical skills to disassemble and lubricate internal parts. Spring-piston mechanism is good because it has a long time excellent shots accuracy. The main reason for changing the speed of the bullet is the wear of the metal of the fighting spring.

For a certain number of shots, the detail is deformed. Weakening affects the device of all mechanisms. The low thrust of the spring does not provide the air tank with the necessary pressure, thus the speed of the bullet deteriorates noticeably. But the PPP rifle is assembled from a variety of parts, which makes it easy and quick to replace worn parts.

Features of firing from weapons with a spring-piston mechanism consist in the fact that the result and quality of the shots depends entirely on the position of the arrow. Influence is also provided by methods of retention, clothing and external factors. The results of the power and range of the bullet with various types of ammunition are completely different and may puzzle the beginner. At such times beginners begin to erroneously correct sighting devices and carry out the adjustment again. But these actions are wrong. After changing the bullet, the results will change again. In fact, everything depends on the quality, mass and diameter of the ammunition used.

With proper maintenance, timely repair and good care, these weapons will last for many years. To date, there are RPF-rifles of 1905, which are still used and still have good technical qualities. Therefore, as a first pneumatic weapon for training shooting, a sample with a spring-piston mechanism is suitable.
