Re: Knee Riser for S400 MPR FT?

Try Maestro-design, SAS Fore end. Dajo. Too late! As I said in my message a few days ago, I already ordered the one from Rowan Engineering. The Maestro looks interesting, but it appears that the bottom plate would need something added to it... maybe a rubber non-skid bottom, or a piece of wood, or ...

Re: S200 quick fill and reg advice.

The mk1 and mk11 are earlier models with a 2 piece stock. The target model mk11 (designated t200) I have has a fully adjustable stock and came with diopeter sights as standard. Some of the early t200's were low powered for 10m work but I believe we're adjustable enabling you to increase the power. ...

Re: S200 quick fill and reg advice.

Well the mk11 200 target arrived earlier this week but I have only had one opportunity to try it out in the garden. It's in lovely condition and seems to holds pressure well. Pellet on pellet at 25 yards and feels even lighter and more pointable than my mk3 from memory. Going to try a side by side ...

I think I caught most of the action.


Fantastic Peter!!!!! That's a great video and it removes all the mystery from the innards of the trigger mechanism. Extremely helpful!

Thank you for making and posting that video.

Re: Knee Riser for S400 MPR FT?

After doing rather poorly at a field target competition today, I came home and experimented with a block of wood that gave the same lift as the Rowan "hamster" would. After a few shots getting used to it, I found it was a tremendous improvement to my stability. So I went ahead and ordered ...

Re: Purge S400 air cylinder?

I intend adding trigger visuals to my Youtube channel soon. I must say that firing with the barrel end against a large towel usually dulls the noise for most indoor locations for final adjustments. Thanks Peter, but my office is an art gallery (and picture framing) and even that would be too loud w...

Re: Purge S400 air cylinder?

I don't know of a visual guide, but once you have cover plate off trigger ( 2 screws ) you will see 3 sears, the one at the top with the spring is the one you push up, the trigger will then appear to be cocked, the 2 screws in the trigger are the 1st & 2nd stage adjusters, back out the one near...

Re: Knee Riser for S400 MPR FT?

Is what I'm looking for called a "Hamster"???

(If so, why not a gerbil, turtle or dachshund?)

Re: Purge S400 air cylinder?

You don't have to empty cylinder, take cover off trigger sears and push top sear up, this will make it seem that rifle is cocked, make your adjustments and pull trigger, just don't cock rifle. Rog Great! Thanks very much for the tip. I've searched, unsuccessfully, for any visual guide to doing this...

Purge S400 air cylinder?

Is there any way to purge all the air from the cylinder on the AA S400 MPR FT? I want to play around with trigger adjustments and just cannot do it (because of the noise) during the day because this gun (unlike my Steyr pistol or springer rifles) cannot really be dry fired. It can be fired without a...
