Storm Airsoft

Storm Airsoft is a French airsoft maker based in Claye-Souilly, east of Paris, that designs and makes its own replicas, grenades and upgrade parts. Its best-known product is the Storm PC1, a compact bolt-action sniper rifle built around the R-Shot system, a manual pneumatic design conceived in France: each time the rifle is cocked, air is compressed into a closed reservoir, and on firing an electromagnet releases it to push the BB. The PC1 has a 460 mm inner barrel in a 625 mm, 1.6 kg body, an easy side hop-up wheel and takes VSR-10 magazines. The PC1 comes in Standard, Short and Deluxe pack versions in black, OD, tan and Multicam finishes, and an online configurator lets players build their own. The range also covers the RAFAL HPA rifle, the HP-R HPA system and parts, Storm Apocalypse and D-Tonator gas grenades, semi-rigid rifle cases, 55-round magazines, CNC custom parts and maintenance consumables. Everything is sold through its own web shop, with manuals online for each product.
