Overview

The Morini CM 200EI is a Swiss single-shot precharged-pneumatic match air pistol chambered in .177 (4.5 mm), built by Morini Competition Arm SA for ISSF 10-metre air pistol competition. The successor to the long-dominant CM 162EI, it fires a single pellet from a compressed-air system charged to 200 bar for roughly 150 shots per fill, and uses an electronic two-stage trigger mounted on a micro-roller bearing. Its EDM-ventilated Lothar Walther polygonal barrel is wrapped in a full-length carbon-fibre shroud, and the pistol adds a Bluetooth electronics module with a smartphone application and dry-fire training mode. With an anatomical adjustable hardwood grip and micrometer-adjustable diopter rear sight, it is a benchmark design on Olympic-discipline air pistol firing lines.
