PCP Favorite AA?

[orangeokie]

S510 Carbine FAC - Being relative new to PCP and the brands it took me a while to recognize that Air Arms was a legacy rifle maker. When this beauty came available on Airguns of Arizona pre-owned list "like new" I did not hesitate to snatch it up. It has been everything I expected from AA . . . beautiful walnut stock, bright shiny bluing, and extremely accurate. It is a joy to own and shoot. Will definitely be passing this one down to one of my grandsons.

Niccccce! What scope is perched on it?

 

[HubenK1Sniper92]

I only had one AA, a S510 ultimate sporter in .177, was a good rifle but got bored with .177 so I got rid of it. I always wanted to get the Galahad bullpup but never got around to getting one though

I own a TX200 MkIII in .177. Just bought it from Cam Kerndt. It came with a Vortek kit and a Rowan trigger guard and grip. Took her out to the range at 25 yards. Loved sending AA 10.34 Gr downrange. Awaiting a Helix 4-16x44 ffp scope.

Dan from Ontario Canada here! This is my first pcp; an AA S510 FAC in .22. It is quickly getting addictive and am looking at a tx200 next. Bought the superlight version and it is unreal how light amd accurate it is! I am wondering if anyone has any resources for repairs/service for it down the road (barrel removal)? There is very little on the web for these guns. Thanks!

I just received the scope and have not installed it... Yet. This group was shot with a BSA Outlook 3-9x40AO

I really would love an Air Arms! S510 ultimate sporter or maybe a tx200.
Pyramid has a couple of refurbished .25 soft black stock AA S510’s for $999, which is $600-$700 cheaper but it only comes with a 30 or 60 day warranty (no factory limited lifetime warranty). What are y’all’s thoughts on this?

Personally I would go .177 or .22 with Air Arms. The .25 caliber just doesn't have the velocity or fpe. (Accuracy I'm sure is no problem though!!) As far as going refurb being Air Arms I would think it's a safe bet. Just make sure you use it enough in those first few weeks! If I could could get all my money back for my S510 ....I would be keeping the gun

Tx200 all stock just hard to cock after a while

I am a springer fan, and my Air Arms TX200 MKIII and I are inseparable. She's beautiful with her walnut stock and perfect bluing. I did a Vortek SHO tune on her to quiet her already smooth shot sequence. She's powerful at .22 cal and far more accurate with her Hawke Airmax scope than I'll ever deserve. I'm told that one day I'll grow up and move on to pcp airguns . . . Naw. Now why would I want to lug around all that excess equipment? After all, I'm an old man who only wants to haul around his airguns. Why would I want to lift around a scuba tank or a noisy old compressor? I'll save my energy for pocketing a couple of tins of pellets and a couple of rifles to shoot. I like a peaceful afternoon in the hills or the bench without tanks, noisy compressors or myriad valves and fittings. I'm just a spoiled, old-fashioned guy who enjoys the simplicity of shooting his springers and maybe a pumper too. Care to enjoy me?

The TX 200 appeals to me for all the above listed reasons. Having shot springers, and have a couple nice pcps I'm thinking about an top shelf springer to see if that is truly where my heart lies.

Now Mike, I'm an old guy born and raised in La Crescenta, not far from you. Now don't go around telling people that a TX200 gets hard to cock, not in the four years I've been shooting mine. You just need to go up into those beautiful hills above Pasadena and shoot some. Those muscles will build up so that your TX200 cocks so easily that you'll think your stirring your morning coffee. If you still can't cock it I'll buy you a Red Ryder at Walmart. Hey . . . I'm just funning ya, but at 75 I can cock my TX200 all afternoon. Orv.

Now I want to take the TX out on a field trip you’re absolutely right I just have to shoot it to build muscle. I’m not going to change a thing from factory it’s perfect. She just got a boyt soft case

Just one of 5 Cz S200 (AA rebadge them ) in 177 that i use
View attachment 283

Very nice rifle. I bet it's a joy to shoot! Looks cool too.

 

[Danman]

Here my LH TX MK3! Have been waiting for it to be back in stock since summer. AGS had one in LH brought over and I snatched it the day i got the email! Def have to work harder for it to group than the S510 but the single shot loading is so fun on the bench, and it's 2 inches shorter. I will use it against my brother and his Diana when we plink/punch paper. Definitely won't be my first choice for hunting though. Heavy!
