Blaser R8 Professional Success Leather

The synthetic hole stock of the straight-pull repeater Blaser R8 Professional Success Leather is designed for the toughest use under the most adverse conditions.
The robust, one-piece synthetic hole stock with leather inlays on the pistol grip, forend, and buttstock gives the stock a special feel and grip. A special impregnation of the high-quality leather protects it against all weather influences. The Success hole stock is ergonomically perfectly designed and helps the shooter achieve a better stance – whether lying down, freehand, or supported. The completely relaxed position of the shooting hand and arm results in an immediate increase in the shooter's accuracy, while shooting errors such as the annoying "flinching" are almost completely prevented. The stock cap developed specifically for the R8 Professional has excellent recoil reduction and great gliding properties. The Blaser R8 Professional Success is offered in various stock colors. The most popular color combination is black-brown with leather grip inlays in cocoa brown, closely followed by the stock color black with black leather inlays.
The Blaser R8 Professional equipment options provide the opportunity to customize the weapon even better to individual taste. Various stock and leather colors are available: Stock colors: black-brown, dark green, savanna, or black Leather inlays: marrone, terracotta, sand, black, dark green, natural brown, cocoa, or teak.
For the system, upgrade options include a titanium-nitrided trigger, various chamber grip balls, and a titanium-nitrided bolt chamber. A pistol grip cap with monogram or animal engraving can also be retrofitted without any issues.
The Blaser straight-pull repeater system allows for lightning-fast shot sequences while maintaining a relaxed body posture, without putting the weapon down. This keeps the shooter's eye and the barrel of the weapon continuously aimed at the target. The time gained in target acquisition leads to a more secure shot release. The manual safety system is considered one of the best safety systems. No other mechanical safety can provide the security of a relaxed firing pin spring. The R8 is intentionally cocked just before the shot by pushing the cocking slider forward. To relax the system, a light pressure on the cocking slider is sufficient, and it glides back. At the same time, the weapon cannot be unintentionally opened, as the chamber grip is blocked when the bolt is relaxed and locked. If the magazine, including the trigger unit, is not in the weapon, the R8 cannot be cocked and is thus safe from unauthorized use.
The magazine change is quick and easy with a short press on the two release buttons, which are ideally located above the trigger. The magazine buttons can be locked, ensuring that unintentional removal of the magazine is reliably prevented.
The excellent trigger characteristics of the Blaser direct trigger with only 700 g trigger weight are the perfect prerequisite for a precise shot. Optionally, the Blaser Atzl trigger system is offered: the trigger weight can be adjusted to either 200 g or 600 g. Retrofitting is possible at the factory.
The modular Blaser principle: Every Blaser R8 repeater rifle is freely configurable. There are countless equipment variants that can be individually combined.
The Blaser R8 barrels and chambers are cold forged, making them perfectly concentric. They are characterized by high precision and durability. The barrel surface is plasma-nitrided and blued. The ball barrels are manufactured in the standard barrel contour with a barrel profile of 17 mm at the muzzle in barrel lengths: 42 cm, 47 cm, 52 cm, 58 cm, 65 cm, both with and without sights. Optionally, the barrels are delivered with a barrel thread M 15x1.
The caliber selection is enormous, allowing one to hunt any game species on any continent with a Blaser R8. Blaser distinguishes between different caliber groups: .22 LR, Mini, Standard, Medium, and Magnum. The reason is the modular Blaser principle. The Blaser R8 systems and stocks can be individually combined with different barrel types in various calibers. Only when changing the caliber group is it necessary to additionally swap the locking chamber on the bolt. The large-area barrel bedding in the solid system box ensures that the weapon shoots accurately again after a caliber change. Another advantage: the R8 can be disassembled and reassembled in seconds without changing the point of impact. Most R8 models are also available as complete left-hand versions with left-hand stock and left-hand system.
