Snowpeak AP900B Tactical Regulated PCP Air Rifle
£460.00
£435.00
Same DNA as the AP900. More air. More range time.
The Snowpeak AP900B takes the proven AP900 platform and fits it with a larger 350cc bottle, giving you significantly more air on tap and a much higher shot count per fill. Mechanically, it’s the same regulated, side-lever tactical PCP that has sold exceptionally well. The difference is simple: more capacity, more range time, slightly less subtle styling.
Where the original AP900 leans hard into lightweight mountain use, the AP900B shifts slightly toward the range and static shooting crowd. The larger bottle increases shot capacity but adds a bit more bulk up front. If you are scrambling over rocks, resting on fence posts, or generally treating your rifle like climbing equipment, the slimmer original AP900 may be the better choice.
If, however, you want longer sessions between fills and prefer spending more time shooting than pumping, the AP900B makes a lot of sense.
Built for consistent performance
At the heart of the AP900B is a 350cc air reservoir paired with an integrated regulator, delivering stable, repeatable pressure across the shot string. That translates to consistent velocities and predictable point of impact, which is what actually matters once you’re behind the trigger.
The right-side lever action provides fast, smooth cycling for quick follow-up shots, while the reinforced mammoth/M-series magazine system ensures reliable multi-shot feeding without fiddly loading procedures.
Estimated shot count ranges from approximately 80 to 160 shots per fill, depending on calibre, power setting, pellet choice and shooting style.
Tactical layout, practical features
The AP900B keeps the same folding synthetic stock as the original, allowing it to collapse to roughly 600mm for easier transport. Despite the larger bottle, it remains compact and well balanced for its class.
A 310mm rifled steel barrel with integrated silencer keeps the overall profile tidy and manageable. The upper Picatinny rail allows easy optic mounting, while the M-LOK compatible forend gives you the option to add accessories where required.
Other practical touches include:
Adjustable two-stage trigger
Manual safety mounted on the trigger
On-board pressure gauge
Fill probe with Foster-style quick connect
It’s not pretending to be boutique. It’s a well-priced, regulated tactical PCP that does exactly what most shooters actually need.
Includes
1 × Snowpeak AP900B rifle (integrated silencer, folding synthetic stock)
1 × Single-shot magazine / loading tray
1 × Multi-shot mammoth/M-series magazine
Important note for silent use:
The rifle is supplied with an integrated silencer. Due to the larger bottle size, clearance for some third-party 1/2" UNF moderators may be limited. Fitting moderators that contact or foul the bottle can negatively affect barrel harmonics and may lead to wear on the air cylinder. Ensure adequate clearance before use.

Important Notice
Important Notice for the Purchase and Delivery of Airguns, Pressure Components of Airguns, and Moderators
Effective Compliance with the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 (VCRA): Sections 31 and 32
Under the provisions of Sections 31 and 32 of the Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006, which were enacted through "The Violent Crime Reduction Act 2006 (Commencement No 3) Order 2007: firearms measures," specific regulations now apply to air weapons, their Pressure-Bearing component parts, and certain accessories.
Key Points to Note:
Restricted Items:
- Airguns: All airguns are classified as restricted items.
- Pressure-Bearing Parts of Airguns: This includes barrels, cylinders, reservoirs, and pistons.
- Functional Moderators (Silencers/Suppressors): Moderators that reduce the sound of discharge are also classified as restricted items.
Definition and Registration:
- Component Parts: While the VCRA does not explicitly define "component parts," the Home Office interprets this to include pressure-bearing parts such as barrels, cylinders, reservoirs, and pistons.
- Accessories: Only moderators (silencers) require registration by dealers.
Legal Requirements for Transfer:
- In-Person Transfer: It is an offence under the VCRA to transfer these restricted items through standard postal systems or to the end customer directly without the presence of both the buyer and either the seller or a representative of the seller.
- Representatives of the Seller: This can be:
- An employee of the seller who is a registered firearms dealer (RFD).
- Another RFD authorized by the seller.
- An employee of the authorized RFD.
Collection and Delivery Options:
- Collection from Store: Customers are encouraged to collect their restricted items directly from the store where purchased.
- Transfer to Another RFD: Items can be transferred to a local RFD for collection, though the receiving RFD may charge a fee for this service.
- Home Delivery: We offer home delivery through our in-house team to some areas of the UK. However, please note that this service has location restrictions and incurs higher costs due to the need for dedicated transport, making it more expensive than a standard RFD transfer.
