As Wolfiek Group is a new partner for Hard Air Magazine, we thought many readers would like to find out some more information about the company. In the first of these posts, we talk to Francisco Eizayaga, the Managing Director and founder (above). Here he tells us in his own words…
Hard Air Magazine: Francisco, welcome to HAM. Please start by giving us a “one liner” overview about your company.
Francisco Eizayaga: Steve, it’s great to be here! Competitive shooters, hunters, and airgun enthusiasts all recognize the same excitement: the instant when the right equipment transforms the shooting experience. That pursuit of precision lies at the heart of the story behind Wolfiek Group.
That’s why our company that has grown into one of the most respected names in the global PCP airgun industry.

Hard Air Magazine: So what was your original inspiration to enter the airgun business?
Francisco Eizayaga: The origins of the company trace back to Argentina, on my German grandmother’s farm, where I spent countless afternoons shooting alongside my brother Bernardo. What began as a family pastime gradually evolved into a lifelong passion – and finally into a professional calling.
Below. Francisco placed first in the Steel Scramble (PRS) competition at Extreme Benchrest, 2023.
With a background in engineering and an unwavering focus on performance, I have been collaborating since 2010 with some of the world’s leading manufacturers of PCP airguns.
These early partnerships provided invaluable technical expertise and market knowledge, leading to the official founding of Wolfiek Group in 2012.
Today, based in the dynamic and multicultural city of Barcelona, Spain, Wolfiek has successfully transformed my lifelong ambition as a shooter into reality. We have become the most respected representative and collaborator for some of the world’s best airgun manufacturers.

Hard Air Magazine: Yes, Barcelona is a beautiful city with fantastic food. I love it! But to continue, please tell us about the company’s ongoing vision?
Francisco Eizayaga: At Wolfiek Group, the vision has been consistent from the outset: to offer shooters around the world access to the best PCP air rifles, expertly adjusted and backed by experts.
It’s a vision built on precision and trust.
We are specialists in the world of PCP airguns, backed by the passion and dedication of a team made up of 12 different nationalities. Every product offered by Wolfiek is evaluated not only from a retail perspective, but through the experience of competitive shooters and technical experts.
We prioritize around four fundamental pillars: accuracy, consistency, reliability and performance.

From the beginning, Wolfiek Group has remained guided by that clear vision. We provide shooters around the world with access to the finest PCP air rifles, expertly tuned and supported by true specialists.
Operating from our headquarters in Spain, Wolfiek Group continues its international expansion. Now we have active bases in Argentina and Norway, too. This enables us to export our core values and technical knowledge with the international airgun community.
Hard Air Magazine: So, Francisco, please tell us about Wolfiek Group’s partner brands.
Francisco Eizayaga: Over the years, Wolfiek Group has contributed to the growth of some of the most respected brands in the airgun industry.
Through our close collaboration with manufacturers, we provide technical feedback, performance insights, and a deep understanding of market demands. The company has played an active role in the development and success of no less than 13 internationally-renowned brands. These include EDgun, Huben Airguns, AEA, RTI Arms, Epic, and Taipan.
This achievement is built on long-term trust, earned through years of extensive product expertise and dedicated technical support.
Our customers value Wolfiek Group’s ability to handle complex technical inquiries and recommend the optimal configuration for their specific shooting needs. We can do this because we have built a premium airgun ecosystem under one roof.
Hard Air Magazine: But what really sets Wolfiek Group apart from other airgun retailers?
Francisco Eizayaga: What really sets us apart from the others? Its a deeply competitive spirit, a defining element of the company since the beginning.
The Wolfiek Team doesn’t just sell PCP airguns: we shoot them at the highest level. Over the years, we have achieved victories in some of the most demanding PCP airgun competitions in the world, including Extreme Benchrest and PRS.

Leveraging the technical expertise acquired in the field, Wolfiek’s signature extends beyond the official shooting team. We actively collaborate with professional shooters in various competitions, providing technical support and optimizing their airguns with personalized tuning, ensuring maximum performance.
Hard Air Magazine: What can you tell us about the 7mm WOLFIEK caliber and Pandora?
Francisco Eizayaga: Steve, this really is innovation unleashed! You see, Wolfiek’s ambitions have never been limited to distributing the work of others. In 2025, we captured the industry’s attention by launching 7mm WOLFIEK.
This completely new air rifle caliber was developed from scratch to fill the ballistic gap between .25 and .30 calibers. It offers superior long-range performance and optimized ballistic coefficients.
For Wolfiek Group, 7mm WOLFIEK is a bold statement of authenticity: “We don’t just follow the industry, we shape it!”
The ecosystem around this calibre is rapidly expanding, with leading airgun brands like RTI, AEA, EDgun, Taipan, Epic, and Skout planning to release their own dedicated 7mm versions in the coming years. Don’t worry, we will keep Hard Air Magazine readers up-to-date with progress!
But innovation is constant. At IWA 2026, we unveiled the AEA – WOLFIEK PANDORA. Billed as the world’s first ultra-precise 500 BAR PCP air rifle, the Pandora PRS is engineered for competitive long-range shooters.
Hard Air Magazine: I know Wolfiek Group has a big international presence. But how do you manage communications and logistics with customers in other countries?
Francisco Eizayaga: Steve, we do very well with this! We already have many customers in the USA, so let’s take the example of customers in your country…
US customers can contact us by email at info@wolfiekgroup.com. Or – for a live discussion – by WhatsApp on +34 666 712 245. If you have WhatsApp on your phone, the call is free. So there’s no cost to talk to us from the USA.
Either way, we are all fluent in English, so the language is no issue. The only thing to work out is the time difference. In Spain, we are on Central European Time. We answer WhatsApp calls and emails from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM our time, Monday to Friday.
The best thing for US customers is first do a quick Google search for “Time now in Barcelona”. That way they know if we are in the office.
For payments, most countries use the Euro ( € ): it’s our home currency, of course. But US customers can see pricing and pay in US Dollars on our website – that way there’s no confusion.
Below. If – for some reason – the Wolfiek website does not automatically show prices in Dollars, it’s easy to select from the dropdown at the foot of the Home Page.
Everyone just pays with their regular credit card. Or ApplePay or PayPal, if they prefer.
Hard Air Magazine: Francisco, thanks for that. But how about the physical shipping process?
Francisco Eizayaga: Great question! Here’s how our system works…
To ensure proper quality control, all air rifle orders are thoroughly inspected and tested before shipping. So typically orders are shipped in 1-5 business days. You’ll receive tracking information for your shipment, of course.
We ship internationally – and we mean it. From our warehouse in Barcelona, Wolfiek delivers to virtually every corner of the world, with only a few exceptions.
Depending on what you order, shipments are handled by FedEx, UPS, or DHL — all reliable, fully trackable carriers that US customers already know and trust. Whether you are based in Texas, California, or anywhere in between, getting world-class PCP gear from Europe to your range is as simple as placing an order online.
US customers benefit from full buyer protection on every shipment, and if an order ever remains in transit beyond 60 days, a refund process is available. Before ordering, we recommend checking your local airgun regulations, as customers are responsible for compliance with the laws of their region.
The price you see is the price you pay, and when you add it all up, shopping at Wolfiek is very similar to shopping in the United States. You won’t have any extra unexpected costs: we use DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) shipping. The courier should not charge you any extra fees when you receive what you buy from us.
So, overall, it’s very similar to buying from a dealer right there in the USA.
Thanks to Francisco for giving us such a great background on Wolfiek Group! I’m looking forward to hearing more about PANDORA and the WOLFIEK 7mm project very soon…
