    How to choose

    Anyone any advice on whether I should go for a Alros Trailsman or a AAs200 10 shot?

    Cheers

    Aas200

    AAS200 i've got one in .22 and its as accurate as any of the other six guns i've got.
    Gets used a lot as its so light to carry around aswell.

    S200, but you might get a secondhand S410K for about the same money.

    Aa S200

    Remember that the S200 has a very small shot capacity.

    I get about 40 consistant shots from my 0.177

    S200. The Trailsman has a very heavy trigger plus it needs a deeper butt pad and a cheekpiece. The S200 is built to fit normal humans but I've never met anybody that finds a standard Trailsman comfortable.

    I've never yet met anybody who has an Alros Trailsman.

    I think Dan (Geordie) on here may have one, but then he has most airguns in the world anyway.

    S200 to cut your teeth on or 400/410

    I had two of them! An original single shot, small cylinder in .22 then an 8-shot, 400cc in .177. They both had a heavy trigger, butt plate that dug its pointy metal tip into my shoulder joint and too long a stock. Good idea but really needed more work.
