BaikalsRule90 Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hey guys, ok, i have been offered an air arms s200 in .22, its the one with the plastic bolt so i think it is the mark 1., its sigle shot and comes with an air arms silencer and a fairly cheap looking scope (3 x 9 x 40), its for sale at £229... is this worth it? its in fairly good nick though there are rust specs dotted all over the barrel if you know what i mean. also, my dad has a divers bottle with the hw100 filling adapter on, will the air arms fit straight on because they are all standard fit or will i need to buy my own? and how much are they? cheers in advance baikal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineshooter Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 I had one of these in 177, very nice accurate gun, just watch the forend as it is only held with one screw and may come loose every now and again. I cannot coment on 22 cal, I know the .22 pellet does have a loopy trajectory but if you are used to shooting that calibre, then it no problem. I`d try and knock the price down a bit, say to £200 or so, you can deal with the rust spots with some oil and wire wool when/if you buy it, I have a fill adapter for one of these, I`m sure the Hw one is different.

Either way I am quite sure they are different. If you're not sure about the price do yourself a favour and check out the AirgunBBS forum - just google it.

bruno22rf Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 If the guns in good nick then the price is pretty fair.Dont worry too much at this stage about the scope-as long as the picture is clear and it adjusts correctly then it should be good enough-you dont need expensive mounts or a scope designed to take the rec oil of a centre-fire on a recoiless airgun!Charging adaptors are easy to come by (yours is most likely the push fit with a knurled ring around the body) and cost about £15 but i dont know if its a good idea to keep changing from one to another if you are sharing the tank with someone else-the threads are quite fine and could get damaged.Keep an eye out for a used whip and gauge on here or one of the airgun forums and pop your adaptor on that-should last a lifetime.If you are unsure about the guns condition mechanically then leave a deposit and fully charge it then go back 2-3 days later and make sure the pressure is the same.The trigger ,by the way, is not brilliant but you get used to it-the accuracy ,however, for a gun of this price is spot on-it will outperform your ability a thousand times over! I've been in a position over the last year or so to buy just about any airgun on the market but i cant think of a valid reason to get rid of my s200.
