Snowpeak PR900S Gen 3 Synthetic Regulated PCP Air Rifle
£280.00
25% off Vector Optics Scopes with New Air Rifles
The PR900 Gen 3 is a sensible, no-nonsense update to the PR900 Gen 2. The Gen 3 swaps the fiddly CP-style magazine for the more practical magazine style seen on larger Remington-type rifles — quicker to load and easier to live with in the field. The synthetic variant gets a practical tan finish (less boring than basic black) and keeps the useful, compact package: regulated PCP performance, an integrated 130 cc tank and a lightweight, ergonomic synthetic stock.
The rifle runs from a 130 cc reservoir charged to a maximum of 250 BAR (store at or below 200 BAR) and is fitted with an integrated regulator to give consistent shot-to-shot performance. Expect roughly the 100-shot region per fill depending on power setting and pellet choice. It uses a right-hand manual bolt, a two-stage trigger with manual safety, and an easily removable barrel silencer. Two magazines are included 12 pellets (4.5 mm) / 10 pellets (5.5 mm) / 9 pellets (6.35 mm), plus a single-shot loading tray for picky single loads. An 11 mm rail accepts optics and the 480 mm rifled steel barrel does the rest.
This is a practical choice for shooters who want regulated PCP consistency in a light, user-friendly synthetic package — good for pest control, range work and general field use where compact weight and straightforward mag swapping matter.

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.
