Description

The Defense Innovation Pistelle X-68 Gen2 is a powerful, modern airgun designed for personal security and self-defence. It delivers reliable non-lethal protection while remaining easy to operate and store. As a result, you stay prepared without unnecessary complexity.

Upgraded GEN2 Reliability

This second-generation Pistelle X-68 features an upgraded valve system and improved seals. Thanks to tighter manufacturing tolerances, the Gen2 model offers greater durability, smoother operation, and enhanced reliability. In addition, every unit includes the GEN2 upgraded seal kit with O-rings and lubricant grease, ensuring long-term performance from day one.

Exceptional Power – Ready Out of the Box

The Pistelle X-68 is widely regarded as the most powerful pistol available without modification. It delivers an impressive 35–50 joules of impact power, making it one of the strongest .68-caliber launchers in its class. Moreover, it is powered by a 12g CO₂ cartridge housed in the grip, paired with a 6-round magazine for dependable operation.

Thanks to the Quick-Piercing CO₂ system, the launcher can be stored unpressurised and activated instantly when required. Therefore, it remains safe during storage while still being ready for immediate use. Ultimately, this makes the Pistelle X-68 an outstanding choice for high-performance personal defence.

Key Features

  • Quick-Piercing CO₂ System: Features an innovative 3-in-1 piercing cap, allowing fast and effortless activation of 12g CO₂ cartridges.
  • High-Precision Ergonomic Design: Designed for comfort, control, and accuracy. As a result, handling remains intuitive even under pressure.
  • .68-Caliber Compatibility: Supports a wide range of .68-caliber projectiles, giving you flexibility to match your defence requirements.
  • Temperature-Optimised Performance: Operates reliably between -6°C and 48°C, with built-in safeguards for extreme conditions.

Effortless Operation & Immediate Readiness

Designed with simplicity in mind, the Pistelle X-68 uses the renowned Quick-Piercing System. A light tap at the base of the grip pierces the CO₂ cartridge exactly when needed. Consequently, you can store the launcher long-term without sacrificing instant availability.

Rapid Fire Capability

Deploy .68-caliber rounds quickly and consistently. Additionally, integrated Picatinny rails allow you to mount optics or accessories, making it easy to customise your setup.
