S200 5 shot magazine - feedback

[jeffbroodwar]

Hi Experts,

I'm looking at getting the 5 shot magazine for S200, anyone here used them? can you please show pictures? how can you install it? pros and cons? will predator polymag .22 fit them? cause it doesn't fit the rotary magazine reason why they came up with the shorts version.

Thank you,
Jeff

They look easy to use, and resemble the one that I had on my old Daisey Powerline pump rifle, which you had to push in after each shot. Not sure if this is self indexing like the ten shot drum version. Why not buy the ten shot? https://www.czub.cz/en/catalog/371-long ... 06-ND.aspx

I read somewhere that this wont require you to remove anything from the rifle unlike the ten shot mag. Though i havent seen it attached to s200 and no idea how to install.would like something that can be removed fast if needed.

Is this the system you mean?




I had one for a while, I found it good for shooting at night because you can load each end of the magazine without removing it from the rifle and keep the middle holder empty to close the bolt on. The only downside was the silicone strips that hold the pellets in place, they wear very quickly.
No idea if polymags will work in them though.

Thanks tim, though i have some questions:
any solution for silicon?
Once wore off, can i still use it?
Did you remove the tray like when installing the 10 shot mag?
Is it advisable to use even it breaks easily?

Thanks,
Jeff

I didn't try any replacement for the silicone strip since I had plenty. When it eventually wears out the pellets will drop out.
I think the shot tray had to be removed but I can't remember for certain.
As a magazine system for hunting it worked fine, for target shooting you would soon get fed up with removing the bar and loading it!

Thanks Tim, sorry for too many questions, can you show me sample of silicon strip in google? might find one here in Philippines. thanks!

1 more thing, if I decide not to use the 5 shot magazine and the system is installed, is it possible to manually put pellet in? or do I have to remove the system so that manual pellet feeding is possible?

Thank you.
Jeff

Sorry, I gave the unit away along with the remaining silicone. You do have to remove the whole unit to use single shot but it is only two screws so no real hardship.

thanks Timmy, last favor, can you provide a link in google for the silicone? sorry I have no idea what it looks like... thanks.
