Which Gun AA s410 or S410 TDR Or Daystate Air Ranger

[Strawman1368]

Hello All

I am thinking Of Buying a Air Arms S410 Or The Tdr Version.

But Also Have my eye a second hand daystate Air Ranger...

I do have a soft spot for Rapids But they seem to be getting slated alot lately

What are your thoughts Please

Oh by the way if i bought the air arms s410 or TDr it would be from BAR and new.....

The Daystate Air Ranger is 2 Months old

My Main Quarry will be Rabbits etc

i like the tdr but its overpriced for what it is IMO. i presume your looking at the air ranger at bar. i have only ever seen one and that one had a list of broblems as long as my arm could easily have just been the one that got through

[Whizzer]

i personally dont think you can beat a rapid, i have an s type and its one of the most accurate guns i own, quality is top notch

As a dedicated hunting rifle the S410k is Fantastic.
Very hard to beat.

i have the s410 classic as a dedicated hunting rifle and would find it hard to beat

only probs with the carbine range is number of shots per charge, with the theoben you dont have to think about it. I would also look at the BTAS fx gun, there is a write up in this months airgunner

I've decided to keep my air ranger it shoots spot on. It may be a heavy gun but you can feel the quality. Then again Air arms are just as good, which ever one you choose you won't go wrong

Why can you carry 60 rabbits??
Or 60 pigeons for that??

[what barn door]

i think my TDR is on the ball, but thats just my opinion

[Murphy]

Well no...but its easy to get carried at targets and many people don't let their guns fall past 150 bar....

I dont understand what you point is??


And i did say dedicated hunting rifle.

Pointless getting the TDR unless you need to travel inconspicuously with it (on public transport say,).
Mines great and its done all I could have asked of it but I wouldnt recommend it for anything other than close-medium range work like ratting/ferals.
If you want a general hunter mate then go for the S410k in .177. All you'll ever need.

I'd be interested to know why you wouldnt recommend the TDR for anything more than close/medium range work? is it less accurate than say the s410k?

Obviously you lose the shot count but I thought they were meant to be just as accurate?

just wondered?

blah blah blah...

AA v Daystate v Theoben

Just get the one that feels right in the shoulder. They are all class guns.

(Not the TDR - pointless IMHO)
