Gamo Outdoor USA Presents Two Technologies In One Air Rifle

Fort Lauderdale, Florida - An innovative leader in the air rifle industry, Gamo Outdoor USA (www.gamooutdoorusa.com), is proud to announce its exclusive new Silent Stalker Whisper™ that will be unveiled at the upcoming SHOT Show in Las Vegas. This new model is the fusion of two Gamo® technologies into an Adult Break-Barrel: The Whisper® and the new IGT™ (Inert gas technology).

The IGT™ (Inert Gast Technology) is a new advanced technology from Gamo® for Adult Break-Barrel Air Rifles. This technology allows shooting pellet ammunition by use of a pneumatic inert gas cylinder instead of conventional spring technology. The IGT™ has been combined with the Whisper® Technology, adding the integrated noise dampener ND52. The Silent Stalker Whisper™ has become the most technically advanced Break-Barrel on the market, delivering higher velocities, improved accuracy, and less noise vibration.

The Silent Stalker Whisper also features a new recoil pad that enables the shooter to have up to 74% shock absorption. The shooter can adjust or remove the rubber inserts as desired.

A new version called Silent Stalker™ will also be unveiled featuring the IGT™ (Inert Gas Technology).

- IGT™ (Inert Gas Technology)
