Merkel RX Helix Tracker Semi-Weight

RX Helix Tracker Semi-Weight
The linear repeater Merkel RX Helix Tracker is considered a professional tool among hunters. Its particularly short 47 cm semi-weight barrel with drive hunting sight guarantees the best handling. A chamber handle with a textured ball ensures the fastest cycling. Two additional sling swivel mounts, on the side of the stock and directly at the muzzle, allow the Tracker to be carried extremely comfortably and securely in a "backpack carry" style. The 5-shot magazine is specially protected against loss. As a specialist of the Helix family, the Tracker is ideally suited for drive hunting or tracking.
Straight-pull repeater system with manual cockingThe HELIX system: Straight-pull repeater system with a 1:2 gear ratio results in an extremely short cycling distance. The straight pull stands for the fastest cycling in the shooting position. It allows for lightning-fast shot sequences while maintaining a relaxed body posture without putting down the weapon. The shooter's eye and the barrel of the weapon remain focused on the target. The time gained in target acquisition leads to a more secure shot release. The manual cocking safety system is considered one of the best safety systems. No other mechanical safety can offer the security of a relaxed firing pin spring. The Merkel RX Helix is intentionally cocked just before the shot: the cocking slider is pushed forward. If not shot, a light pressure on the cocking slider is sufficient to let it slide back and relax the system.
System & MountingThe closed system housing prevents contamination from the outside and inside. The 6-lug rotary head lock directly locks in the barrel and stands for maximum precision. The modular system allows for easy caliber changes. Only the barrel and chamber head need to be replaced. The weapon can be disassembled almost tool-free and in seconds, making it easy to transport. The top of the bolt sleeve is designed as a Weaver rail. All commercially available Weaver mounts can be used for mounting a riflescope.
Merkel I-Sight sight and barrel thread M 15x1The RX HELIX Tracker comes standard with the I-Sight system, meaning the sight is not only easily removable but also can be repositioned backward on the barrel, allowing any suppressor, whether on-barrel or over-barrel, to be mounted on the existing muzzle thread M 15x1.
