Re: s400f barrel leak update

...and are only fitted when AA find the barrel fit in a rifle too loose.... Piss poor engineering. Sorry but that is just not on at that price. Barrel or block should have been scrapped or undersized barrel reworked with a metal spray welder and ground back to size. Or design it for o rings and fit...

Re: which is the best Air Arms rifle?

The S200 target is intended for teenagers and entry level shooters as is the S400 MPR Sporter. At £450 and £700 respectively you could argue that is way too much. But if you want European/British goods you have to accept we cant make them for Chinese prices. Trump's America will soon find out the pr...

Re: S200 barrel

It will have to bite into the rifling as you push it home.
Have you poked the pellet back out of the breech with a cleaning rod to inspect it for marks?

Re: Pellets through the post

dropping a tin, say, from desk height to hard floor can make a massive dent and will damage some pellets. Last time it happened to me I had to lever the lid off with a screwdriver. However all pellets I have bought mail order were at least ten tins and wrapped up so well in bubble and cardboard it t...

Re: S400F Problems And Barrel Removal

4 months old and the barrel joint leaks? Surely that needs AA to fix it for free on warranty. Not fit for purpose.

Re: Young rats

They love meal worms. I darent put them out any more. Only 1 rat but it tunnelled under the decking to find what dropped through. I had another that put all the peanuts under the shed for later. Couldnt get it with a scoped rifle because of the low gap. got it with a webley premier pistol on its side.

Re: club prices to sky rocket

it would apply to firearms clubs. Our air-only non FAC club is not approved by HO. In the end if you are in a smallish rimfire club of say 20 shooters and you have expensive guns and a safe etc etc, its probably better to pay an extra £50 a year than shut the club, fair or unfair. What do golf clubs...

Re: Diver Bottle Stickers

I would go for magnetic one as it needs taking off when not carrying. £1.85 on Amazon.

It's for fire brigade and cops if you crash and are unconscious. I won't tell my insurer . Stuff them.

Re: dodgy moderator

obvious question. is it a .22 moderator?
do you have a straight 4mm plastic rod to put down the barrel to see how it runs thru the moderator exit hole?
