Brocock is a British air gun maker. Today it is known for compact, well-made pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) rifles such as the Compatto, Bantam and Sniper XR. Earlier in its history it made guns that used self-contained air cartridges, and that part of its history matters a lot if you are buying an old Brocock, because those guns are now prohibited.

Important: old Brocock air cartridge guns
For many years Brocock made revolvers and rifles that used its Air Cartridge System (ACS), where each round was a small pre-charged air cartridge. Some of these guns were criminally converted to fire live ammunition, and in 2004 the law changed. Air weapons that use a self-contained gas cartridge system became prohibited weapons in Great Britain. Owners who had them before the change could only keep them by getting them onto a firearm certificate in time.
That means you must not buy or sell an old Brocock air cartridge revolver or rifle unless both sides hold the right authority. If you have one in a loft or a relative’s collection, contact your local police firearms licensing department for advice. FreeGunAds does not allow ads for prohibited weapons.
Modern Brocock PCP rifles are completely different and are normal air rifles. Under 12 ft-lb they need no licence in England and Wales.
The models worth knowing
Brocock Compatto
The Compatto is a short, light, multi-shot PCP that is easy to carry and handles well. It is a popular hunting rifle and a good used buy.
Brocock Bantam
The Bantam is a compact rifle with a skeleton-style stock, offered in several versions including the Sniper and Hi-Lite. It is known for being accurate and quiet.
Brocock Sniper XR and Commander
The Sniper XR is a regulated, full-size hunting PCP. The Commander is a compact multi-shot with a large air capacity.
Brocock Concept, Contour and Ghost
The Contour was an early compact PCP that is still popular, and the Concept and Ghost are other models you will see. The Ghost has a distinctive design aimed at hunters who want a short, light rifle.

What to check on a used Brocock
- Is it a PCP? Make sure it is a modern pre-charged rifle, not an old air cartridge (ACS) gun.
- Leaks: fill the rifle and leave it overnight.
- Regulator: on regulated models, check shot-to-shot consistency and ask when it was last serviced.
- Magazine: check it indexes cleanly, and that spare magazines and the fill probe are included.
- Power: confirm it shoots under 12 ft-lb unless you hold an FAC covering it.
