Overview
The Hatsan Gladius is a Turkish pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) bullpup air rifle fed from a 9-shot rotary magazine. Chambered for .25 (6.35mm) pellets, and also offered in .177 and .22, it uses a side-lever cocking action and an external six-level power adjustment knob that lets the shooter tune output up to roughly 42 ft-lbs. A QuietEnergy fully shrouded barrel with integrated moderator makes it a quiet, powerful platform for small-game hunting and target shooting.
