information about s 16 please

[BENSPEED888]

if you must buy a mk1, you need two things, a good chrono to check the power level about every ten shots. and shares in parcel force to send it back to logun about every 40 to 50 shots. that is long loguns adjustments last. mine used to drop about 2 pound foot after 40 or so shots.


and before anyone asks, yes i am talking from experiance. and yes it scares me as to how many people have these guns and have never chronoed them, especialy those who use them for hunting
if you realy must buy a mark 1, at least get one second hand so you don't get hammered with deprecation when youve had a gutts ful

Well i chrono'd mine last week and it's sitting nicely at 11.4 to 11.7 with H&N field target trophies

I chrono ALL my guns at LEAST once a fortnight anyway so i will know if anything goes amiss and i do have a 5h1t load of parts including hundreds of O-rings in the workshop so i should be fine till i retire

Why do people ALWAYS slate the mk1?????????

I just bought a one (thanks Luke@york) of the so called oooooooer bad poor built guns.

There was nothing wrong with them other than a leaky valve on a few which under warranty was put right.

Then there is the issue of people getting JAMMED S-16 which was more than 95% user error by NOT closing the breech propperly before firing.

Yes they are a bit on the heavy side but as Luke says a Sling put's pay to that.

They ARE accurate

You do have to Service them regular and inspect and replace Bottle o-rings and magazine o-rings but SO WHAT????

What is the MOST annoying bit is people who slate the gun and have NOT even OWNED one.

I would Pit my S-16 up against any other TDR for reliability and practicality ANY DAY.
