AirJavelin CO2 Air Archery | Umarex

AirJavelin CO₂ Air Archery – innovative crossbow for modern shooters

The AirJavelin from Umarex is a groundbreaking CO₂ crossbow that replaces the traditional bowstring with an advanced CO₂ system. This crossbow operates with a 88g CO₂ cylinder or two 12g CO₂ cartridges and shoots special AirJavelin arrows with a power of 46 joules and a velocity of 92 metres per second. The polymer frame weighs only 2050 grams and has an adjustable length of 80.6 to 86.9 cm, making this crossbow suitable for both left- and right-handed shooters.

Our experience from the Shogun team

This crossbow feels surprisingly light during use, despite its robust construction. The CO₂ system ensures consistent power transfer without the tension of a traditional bowstring. The Straight Flight Technology, combined with the fixed iron sights at the front and rear, makes aiming intuitive. With a single CO₂ tank, you can fire dozens of shots, making this crossbow ideal for extended training sessions. The magazine capacity of 1 arrow does mean you need to reload after each shot, but this contributes to a focus on precision.

Technology and construction

The AirJavelin is made from high-quality polymer and equipped with modern mounting options. The Picatinny rail on top and MLOK rails on the sides provide space for mounting iron sights, red dot sights, or lasers. The adjustable stock adapts to your physique for optimal shooting comfort. The included 3 AirJavelin bolts each have a weight of 170 grains, are fitted with a round point, a Moon Nock, and 3 polymer fletchings for stable flight. These specific arrows are essential – the crossbow operates exclusively with AirJavelin projectiles.

Who is this crossbow suitable for?

The AirJavelin is perfect for shooters who want to get acquainted with modern crossbow technology without the physical effort of cocking a traditional bowstring. Due to its light weight and adjustable dimensions, this crossbow is suitable for both beginners and experienced shooters seeking innovation. The CO₂ system makes this crossbow ideal for use at shooting ranges where consistent performance is desired, or for home use where you can train without much physical exertion.
