Made with composite corrosion free and extremely resistant, the Xp4 is light and easily maneuverable. Hte mechanicals parts are made of steel.

• a double stage trigger
• bright optic fiber sights
• adjustable windage and elevation rearsight

Technology 

This XP4 pistol uses a pre-compressed one shot system : a compression cylinfer (piston), located in the barrel, replaces the traditional spring.
Openig the slide, the pistion is being filled with air, that will be then compressed while closing. Pulling the trigger will liberate this ari, that will propel the pellet out of the barrel.
This technology has the avantage of  causing less vibration, and so a better stability while shooting.

Use 

1. pull the locking hammer backwards
2. open completely the slide (upper part of the pistol), pushing it forward
3. load the pellet in the barrel
4. close the slide, taking it back to its initial position (requires a little firm force, to compress the air)
5. release the safety, that has automatically engaged
6. aim, and shoot
7. start again!
