Air Arms Owners Club

i've just ordered a new air arms s410 carbine, it'll have a hawke eclipse 6-24x50 sat on top, which rifle slip would suit my need's.

Hi Tapps
It is 'horses for courses' and there is no single right answer I am afraid. A basic padded case with that typical bump at the handle end to take a scoped rifle can start at around £10 online. If you are not planning to cart it around a lot and want something cheap and cheerful, that is your answer.

You can then start going up the scale to 2 or 3 times that for better specification.

Or if you are really keen, then 20 or 30 times that amount and buy a custom leather jobby with real fleece lining for around £300.

If you are fitting a bipod or hamster etc. to the rifle, you will find that you need an extra deep one like this -

Also, you may want to think about a hard case if all you are doing is transporting it in the car from home right into a field or club. If you are not going to carry the rifle around in the slip case, a hard case offers better protection in the boot or foot well of the car. Flambeau and Plano are good names at decent prices.

Just make sure you dont order a 'gun case' i.e. a shotgun case which is identifiable by the lack of the bump for the scope.

thank's for your reply, looking at the options now.i have an old BSA rifle slip that's solid in construction, the ZIP'S knackered.hence the reason for looking at a new one !!!!

Hello tapps

I have the s510xs carbine with Hawke airmax 30 sf compact fitted and bought the AA rifle slip ( a little on the expensive side) but fits like a glove. Well made with plenty of padding and well balanced when carrying with the centre grip.

hi krl512xl
are you referring to this one on uttings.com
air arms deluxe gun bag (black)
external dimensions .length 49'' (125cm)
width at widest point 11.5'' (29cm)

Hi taps
Yes that’s the one £47.99, as I said really good bag for your rifle.

Just be aware the XS "fits like a glove".
I think the AA bags are too long for my S400 Classic with AA moderator, let alone a carbine.

Received today, a real bargain. Only £19.95 plus £5.00 postage. Longer than my S400 carbine but that's ok, if it bothers me I will pack the top couple of inches with tissue paper.

I hate to tell you fellas; but those are the ones that Air Arms rejected due to quality control issues . they should have been destroyed as " not up to Air Arms standard " but they somehow managed to get onto the market.

if they fail in anyway , which I hope they don't , complain to where you bought them from not Air Arms .

good luck with your purchases anyway .

safe shooting .

ps. a real bargain if they are trouble free
