BSA Lightning XL SE Black

BSA Lightning XL SE Black

The BSA Lightning XL SE Black is the latest evolution of one of BSA’s most successful sporting air rifles, combining classic Lightning handling with modern engineering and refined styling. Built around Gas Ram Technology (GRT), this version replaces the traditional metal mainspring with a pneumatic ram filled with inert nitrogen, delivering a smoother firing cycle, reduced vibration and improved consistency shot after shot.

Manufactured in Birmingham, England, the Lightning XL SE benefits from BSA’s world renowned cold hammer forged barrel, ensuring excellent accuracy and long-term durability. The gas ram system also offers a quieter discharge and smoother cocking action, making it especially well suited to hunting and general field use.

The rifle is fitted with a smart black-finished stock, fully chequered at the grip and fore-end to provide secure handling in all weather conditions. A ventilated butt pad improves comfort and recoil absorption, while the slimline silencer fully sleeves the carbine barrel to effectively reduce muzzle blast. Completing the package is an enhanced, adjustable trigger that offers a crisp and predictable release for precise shot control.

Blending proven Lightning performance with modern gas ram refinement, the Lightning XL SE Black is ideal for shooters who demand reliability, accuracy and classic BSA styling in a compact, fast-handling rifle.
