Please, take note mate, the magazines on the R10 are big issue,,, yet again BSA have made yet another replacement magazine. this time with polymer inner wheel, to allow pellets to feed properly and not Jam, That is 3, magazines BSA have put out over the years onto the market. Why?,,,, I let you work it out.
Buy the HW,100 mate. you will regret the R10. (You'l most likely will not take my advice.) ( buy the HW,100) trust me!
The R10's stuck on the shelf's and gun rack in the gun shop, will not have the new magazine's fitted so you will have to buy this as well.
Here bellow is the new magazine for the R10 changed for good reason.
The BSA R10 another new bloody magazine,,, I think this number 3..... one day they will get it right...

if a dodgy mag is the only problem im sure I can sort that. the shot count of the HW is a sore point for me. me and my son do a lot of plinking on targets in the garden and it don't take long to shoot 100 pellets. I saw this vid of the r10 on you tube and the way the gun shoots for £699 is great. my air wolf and mk4 cant better this. the wolf is a £1400 gun. and the mk4 is a £1250 gun.
