Artemis AN500 – spring-powered break barrel air rifle for reliable performance

The Artemis AN500 is a break barrel air rifle featuring traditional styling with a polymer/metal construction. This spring-powered rifle operates at 7.5 joules with a 450mm barrel length in 4.5mm/.177 calibre, delivering consistent accuracy for target shooting and plinking.

Construction and materials

Built with a black finish, the AN500 combines a polymer stock with metal components for durability. The rifle measures 100cm in total length with balanced weight distribution. The break barrel mechanism operates smoothly, maintaining reliability through extended use cycles.

Application and use

Designed for recreational shooting, this single shot air rifle suits both garden plinking and range use. The single action trigger system provides a clear breaking point for accurate shot placement. An automatic safety engages when cocking, while the ambidextrous design accommodates both left and right-handed shooters.

Integration and compatibility

The AN500 features an 11mm dovetail rail for scope mounting. As a spring-powered system with break barrel cocking, it requires no CO2 cartridges or compressed air sources. The rifle accepts standard 4.5mm/.177 pellets commonly available for air rifles.

Maintenance and lifecycle

Spring-powered mechanisms require minimal maintenance beyond regular cleaning and proper storage. The break barrel design allows easy access for barrel cleaning. No battery replacement or gas refills needed, making this a low-maintenance option for consistent shooting.
