Ataman airguns are known for their outstanding quality, exceptional reliability and cutting-edge technologies. The legendary expertise of Russian gunsmiths stand behind every Ataman airgun in addition to their state-of-the-art production and the superior materials they use to construct the guns.
Fine craftsmanship and excellence is evident in every aspect of this compact pistol from its Lothar Walther barrel, to the adjustable trigger, lightweight versatility, and power.
For the ultimate in shot-to-shot consistency, the integrated pressure regulator ensures the Ataman makes the most efficient use of the remaining air supply. Because of the regulator, the Ataman AP16 delivers more shots per fill and it features a stunning 4,350 psi (300 BAR) fill pressure. With up to 15 shots per fill in .22 and 65 in .177, you'll enjoy the consistency of shooting.
The two way adjustable trigger allows you to adjust the first stage travel and second stage release point, while you can customize the pull weight to your preference.

Glad I got the .177 version the short time it was available. I am getting 35 regulated shots per fill before any drop off. Each fill barley drains my 90 cu. in. tank. I'm on fill 17 and it still fills to 210 bar. Accuracy is off the charts for a pistol.
Things I would have changed:Not much. The safety can sometimes be pushed past the shoot position. Should ship with more than one magazine. Very happy with this pistol.
What others should know:This caliber is not available at Pyramyd at this time, maybe in the future. Hawke 1X20 red dot fits perfectly, and looks good. Get extra magazines. Seems to like JSB 10.34's. I'm sure the .22 version is just as good.

Great little pistol. Had a probe problem, but pyramid fixed it quick. They have great customer service. Wish I came here 1st, when I started my pcp hobby. The ap16 is great. It's perfect to start little ones out shooting. It's light, it's less sound than a .22lr. My nephews love it. Happy with the ap16 and pyramid. I'd definitely recommend both.
Things I would have changed:Nothing.
What others should know:Pyramid seems like a really good company, with great customer service. Thats hard to find these days.

Are magazines available in .177 cal.
Yes. They are now available on the Pyramyd Air web site as of 10-14-21
What would be a good pellet weight for a .177 caliber Ataman compact pistol?
Can you install the standard length barrel and still use the compact or shorter air tanks? Will that configuration affect performance, other than lower shot count with the smaller air cyclinder?
Yes. You can use the compact tube on the full size AP16. It will only reduce the shot count.

I have been looking at this gun for along time undecided on compact or standard watched some videos on U tube on standards and compacts the standards with a air stripper look like giant Lincoln logs in their hands went with the compact man am I happy with the feel no Lincoln log
Things I would have changed:If you have been thinking about this gun get it I get three mags + out of my compact at 560+fps shoots hard for a air pistol
What others should know:It would be nice if they made this gun in 25 cal semi auto but this gun works flawlessly as it is .
