‘If you’re looking to take your informal shooting a major stage further, the Polaris has to be on your shortlist.'
Paul Howell, Airgun World

If you prefer the solidity of a fixed-barrel action, the new BSA Polaris could be just what you’re looking for in a medium-power, hunter trainer or superior informal target rifle. Utilising the proven BSA rotary breech system, the underlever action of the lightweight Polaris is perfect for enjoyable target sessions in the garden or on the range.

This rifle is built to last, using an easy-care combination of high quality blued steel and high-performance synthetic, for the ideal blend of durability, lightness and strength. Quality features include a fully-chequered stock with ventilated rubber recoil-pad, fully-adjustable hi-vizibility open sights, and a raised scope fixing rail. There are fun-guns and there are BSA Polaris standard fun-guns – and this rifle will certainly demonstrate the advantage of buying a BSA.

Underlever

Rotating breech
Simple, secure and designed to last a lifetime, the rotating breech is activated by a manual push-slide for effortless loading.

Utilising the light-concentrating properties of fibre optics to create three, hi-vizibility aiming spots, these sights can be used in almost any lighting conditions.

Silencer adapter
The Polaris comes ready-equipped with a threaded adaptor designed to take an optional BSA silencer. Fitted in seconds.
