S200 Mk3 magazine choice

Tue Jun 07, 2016 9:59 am

OK, wise and worldly ones, who has or had experience with S200 .177 magazine systems, in the sense which is best: Rowan Engineering item or genuine Air Arms unit? I know the AA system is labelled as self-rotating when cocked, and that Rowan's is manual rotation and £10 cheaper, but can anyone relate personal experience with either items? In advance, thank you.

Rowan ones are quality. AA ones are ok.
Both are fit for purpose a,no not much between them other that what you have said.

Big difference in the price of spare mags. When I last checked the Rowan mag was over twice the price of the AA one.
Not used the Rowan one but not had any problems with the AA one.

Have used Rowan kit in S400 for last 6 years, they are good, best thing about them is you can decock the rifle and recock when the shot is on, and you can't double load unless you index the magazine yourself,and you can single shot it aswell, what's not to like, trust me buy the Rowan kit. Spare magazines are £39.45. The kit is £59.95. Rog

Many thanks to all who replied. I detect a slight swing towards the Rowan unit. I'll give it until same time tomorrow to total the results and smudge the dust on my wallet.
