Air Arms Owners Club

Got a very nice s400 today, its a carbine with full length cylinder, fac barrel band and air stripper, well pleased with it

What makes the bolt jump when the rifle is shot? is there any ay of tightening things up???

Thanks, Wez

are FAC barrels different from sub 12ftlbs ones? should I be feeling red faced (again )

No it has a normal carbine barrel, only the fac barrel band, its larger for the air stripper to fit through..

Here is a picture

My s400's bolt jumps a little on firing and has done it since new, i think its just air pressure between the bolt probe and pellet

Could be it needs a new o ring between the cocking handle and the action if the movement is excessive, my 410's bolt has never moved on firing to my knowledge. I could just be unobservant though

look suspiciusly like a GML stripper mate whats the loading port and handle like?

I use a windows resizer... https://imageresizer.codeplex.com/

I set it to 800 x 600 pixels and resize the image I want to upload.

I then use the upload attachment at the bottom of the posting page and browse for the file I just resized...

I think it could be a GML stripper but unfortunately it aint a GML400

Its a great little thing all the same
