Any idea on what this is?

[drpietrzak]

A friend picked this up used, from a used dealer who took it in in trade. It has a nice fully adjustable trigger that suggests a match style rifle. It appears to be CO2 operated and has a "fill tube" but it is not clear what it uses for the fill. It is .177. It has an Anschutz style to it, and may be a copy of some type. The stock is synthetic and not wood. There is no name or makers info. It has 3126 stamped on the top.

Can someone point me in the right direction?

Yep Tau 200 co2 rifle.

Made by Aeron Brno, had to go check.
Yours has the bulk fill end cap on it, that takes a screw on bottle to fill. There are piercing caps that enable you to use a 12 gram cart as well.

Excellent! And fast. VERY much appreciated.

If you need parts, the factory can sometimes help. I had a Tau pistol, pcp. Kept it running for a while but even the factory didn't have inventory on some key items.
There was a Airgun smith in SoCal that was very helpful in keeping it running, but I believe he retired.
They shoot amazing. I just remembered that my profile picture is of that very pistol . Good times
