Overview
The Evanix Hunting Master AR6 is a South Korean pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) air rifle built around a six-shot revolving magazine that lets the shooter fire in double or single action without cocking between shots. Fed from a 320cc air cylinder and fitted with a sculpted hardwood stock, an adjustable two-stage trigger, a 1/2 UNF threaded muzzle, and a Weaver optics rail, it is offered in a range of calibres from .177 up to the big-bore .357 (9mm) slug used for hunting. The AR6 is a popular pest-control and small- to medium-game hunting airgun valued for its rapid repeat shots and quiet, recoilless firing cycle.

Notes

Background
Evanix pioneered the revolving-magazine PCP concept with the AR6, whose six-round cylinder gives it a rapid double-action repeat capability rare among precharged air rifles and earned it a following among hunters wanting fast follow-up shots on quarry.
