Hi everyone just joined the club.
I've been handed a s410 177 (pre safety) in dire condition. Really it's a such a shame. Rusty barrel and cylinder. Covered in grease and grime. Dirty optics and chipped cheek piece.
Basically it's been rescued from a friend of a friend who left it crammed in a corner of the kitchen for years.
Anyway, I'm new to these pcp rifles so I'm gonna be picking brains for a while. I have a few rifles, mainly rim fire and centre fire for pest control around my area for work purposes & I've owned several springers over the years.
I'm used to cleaning guns regularly obviously but mine are simple things with very few working parts compared to a pcp air rifle so first question is how easy is it to service this thing and replace the seals and O rings!
Is there a tutorial available on here or maybe elsewhere perhaps!! I've never owned such a small calibre rifle before but thinking it could be fun for target or squirrel bashing.
Any help much appreciated.
