The Matador was created by EDgun back in 2004. The recognizable design became the template for many PCP pneumatics manufacturers around the world to produce their bullpups based on the original R2 configuration.
During the production of Matador, it has improved many times and changed, becoming more robust, powerful, and reliable. The current version of the famous "Matador" - R5M was no exception. The R5M enjoys a new construction, improved finish, and ergonomics. To honor our flagship, the R5M has retained the name "Matador."
The R5M is multi-shot, with a front, two-sided cocking levers, this system is convenient for use by both left-handed and right-handed shooters.
The rifle has a double-sided safety that locks not the trigger, but intercepts the hammer, making it completely safe. The new eccentric moderator of increased volume with the same linear dimensions is much more useful than previous versions. This new system significantly reduces the muzzle report.
The barrel located inside a duraluminum made CNC from a single piece of metal together with a Picatinny rail. Together this gives the entire structure excellent rigidity and resistance to damage and point of impact change (see the R5M crash test)
An electronic measuring complex gauge installed on the rifle as a standard feature (EDMU). The EDMU shows pressure, the number of shots, air consumption, temperature, and is more accurate than a mechanical gauge.
During the design of the rifle, special consideration given to ease of maintenance and product service for the average owner. The successful model has proven that even the most novice owner can service their rifle in a few minutes.
The rifle is available in two lengths: standard and long. The stock offered in walnut, laminate, or synthetic. Barrels offered either from Lothar Walther (Germany) or from Alfa-Precision (Russia), with or without choke, made by order of EDgun LLC, according to our specifications and drawings.
