Overview
The Kalibrgun Cricket II is a Czech-made pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) bullpup air rifle chambered for .22 (5.5mm) pellets. It uses a reversible sidelever action feeding a 14-shot rotary magazine, a regulated 280cc air cylinder filled to 300 bar, and a 450mm choked, twelve-groove match barrel. Known for its compact bullpup layout, two-stage adjustable trigger and high shot count per fill, it is widely used for field target competition, hunting and plinking.

Background
Kalibrgun built its reputation on the compact Cricket bullpup, one of the first mass-market PCP bullpups to combine a high shot count with field-target-grade accuracy out of a CNC-machined Czech factory.
