Overview
The Steyr Evo10 is a single-shot, precharged-pneumatic 10-metre match air pistol chambered for the .177 (4.5mm) pellet and built for ISSF Olympic-style competition. It carries forward the platform of the earlier Steyr LP 10, adding a patented tungsten-alloy stabilizer, additional barrel vents for shot stability, an infinitely adjustable ball-bearing trigger, and an anatomically shaped grip offered in numerous sizes. It is supplied with compressed-air cylinders and a set of removable barrel weights for balance tuning.
