1. A break barrel rifle comprising a butt, on which a cylinder ( 2 ) is attached, a barrel ( 3 ), where a pellet chamber ( 5 ) is located, a pellet ( 13 ) magazine ( 12 ), together with articulation means ( 4 ) and a pellet loading system, characterised in that it comprises:
an elastic rod ( 6 ), with a central section ( 9 ) and two ends ( 7 , 8 ), said ends ( 7 , 8 ) are coupled to said cylinder ( 2 ),
a body ( 10 ) for housing said magazine ( 12 ) and pivotally attached to said barrel ( 3 ), where the central section ( 9 ) of the elastic rod ( 6 ) is positioned to enable forward and backward movement of the elastic rod ( 6 ) inside said body ( 10 )and
pushing means ( 11 ) coupled to the elastic rod ( 6 ) and positioned between the pellet ( 13 ) to be loaded and the elastic rod ( 6 ),
the pushing means ( 11 ) moving to one of the pellets ( 13 ) in the magazine( 12 ) at the moment when said barrel ( 3 ) is broken, thus the pushing means leaves a pellet ( 13 ) inside the pellet chamber ( 5 ) and then said pushing means ( 11 ) returns to its initial position when the barrel ( 3 ) is closed, thus leaving the rifle loaded.
2. A break barrel rifle in accordance with claim 1 characterised in that the pushing means ( 11 ) is coupled to the central section ( 9 ) of the elastic rod ( 6 ).
