Thread: The lightest PCP

    The lightest PCP

    I've already got one of the heaviest (HW100), which my g/f finds too much to handle, so my question is, if I was looking for a 2nd gun, what is the lightest PCP multi-shot around?

    i would have to say a falcon fn12rs (8 shot, skeleton stock) i think it's advertised at around 4.8lbs un-scoped.

    very sweet bit of kit, pic of one in my signature.

    i doubt i will ever sell mine, many say the same and many who have had them regret selling.

    the fn19rs is not much heavier either.

    The Air Arms S200. Cheap, reliable, ('controversial' looks - either love it or hate it), and you can upgrade it to a multishot for 60 quid. It's also small and light. Could even make a refreshing change from the HW100 when you fancy something a bit different. Another alternative is the BSA ultra multishot which is even smaller (I think). It's so small however that shot capacity suffers. Yiu'll only get about 35 shots = 3 mags worth. Hope this helps.

    Thanks for the fast responses guy. I had an S200 (excellent little gun) before the HW100, but I just wondered whether there were other contenders for the light weight crown.

    BTAS FX Cyclone - light weight, superbly accurate, excellent trigger, and in carbine simply stunning! Slight issue of the budget perhaps

    S410K in walnut would be lighter than an S200.

    And the small matter that you own the only carbine in existance
    Seriously though, even full size they are really light weight, almost dainty.

    Not for long, BT is making some more

    I was looking at an FN12 at shepreth some weeks back and rather glad I didn't go for one of those - it was on the cards at one point. It felt heavier than my cyclone and the mag's were horrible. Lee couldn't get it to work properly. And an AAS410K is only slightly long than mine but it's a lot heavier.
    Besides FX guns dont seem to get much of a mention so I thought I'd bang the drum a little.

    Definately. A damned sight more comfortable for her to hold as well. In fact, an S410 even in beech would feel lighter than the S200 for that very reason.
