UKPoacher Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Tried one and it felt like a toy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmboy99 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 never tried one but heard very good things about it if its anything like my s400 it'll be excellent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweedledee Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 i don`t think they did enough to make it better than the 400 series.apart from the side lever all is as it was. buy a hw100 or daystate they will be better refined.and thats coming from a chap who has a s400 and swears by them..the hw and daystate are better rifles by far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edr Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I got a HW100 for christmas, i had thought about the others s400, s510 etc. I was offered £660 new for the weihrauch. In comaprsion to a s400 (£500 for the beech stock) with very little extras wise; by the time you have bought an extra mag, walnut stock etc. its nearly the same. I love my HW100 and wouldn't swap it for anything but a daystate (nearly double the price). I would strongly recomend a HW100 to everyone in the new pcp market. Good Luck EDR *Also the oppotunity of a great single shot adapter for target shooting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buster321c Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 Had an AAS400 for years , and sold it November to get a 510sl .177 , with all the bits . I kept it 3 weeks , and sold it . Can`t put my finger on it exactly , but did`nt get on with it and i can`t say any one thing that liked about it . Within 7 days of it going i had a .177 S410 in its place . ,wich is possibly the nicest one ive owned to date , and i wont be getting rid of it .

smithy73 Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 I use an s410k,and my brother-in-law uses a S510,the biggest difference apart from mine having a bolt and his a side lever,is the noise difference.My gun is lovely and quiet,the S510 shrouded barrel is nowhere near as quiet,Also secretly my brother-in-law prefers my gun,but won't admit it.And if money was no object i would keep my gun and buy either a Rapid or HW100.

gurus5000 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Iv heard very good reviews about them, I have a S400 Carbine and I think its fantastic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tobyb525 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I have a 510 .177, the barrel stops the crack but you'll still need a silencer so if I was to buy again I would get a s410. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxnet22 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 when i bought my new air rifle i narrowed it down to the 510 or the hw100 on visiting my local gun shop and vewing both i decided on the hw100 excellent solid piece of kit though more heavy than the 510.you also get a walnut stock and 2 mags .also get certificate stating fires on 11.5 pounds where the 510 is on 10.00 pounds i understand but hey the choice is yours mate safe shooting. alan.

UKPoacher Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Got to add to the HW100 fan club. I tried a Rapid Mk.2 (nose heavy and went off like an Apollo rocket), Daystate Mk.3 (Gimmicky safety, otherwise nice), S410 (lovely), S510 (light and flimsy feel) and picked the Weihrauch. I have never reegretted it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
