Air Arms Precihole Indian Partnership

[look no hands]

I wonder what barrels they will be fitted with? The S200s had a CZ barrel which made it highly accurate, no mention of it being a Walther, interesting to see what trigger it will have as well.

They need a better name than "percy's-hole"

In one of Gerald Cardew's books he tried barrel-clamping a range of air-rifles and tested them at 10 yards. He was surprised to find even the cheapest, crudest rifles would deliver excellent accuracy at this range. From this it can be concluded that the trigger mechanism and the spring-surge boinging behaviour, as well as the type of open sights, were the main determinants of a springer's accuracy rather than its barrel. he did use top quality match pellets and it was only 10 yards, but Pete's question is vital to determine if this is a bargain from a country most UK sportsmen never buy rifles from or a complete waste of time & money.

Any country can produce she, but equally any country (within reason) can produce decent stuff as well. Air Arms have openly publicised what they are doing in terms of sub-contracting some manufacturing, and otherwise representing the Indian Company with their product line. As AA will be the UK supplier, our warranty and support would be with AA. I’m sure if you mentioned Whiscombe, Harper or Titan/Falcon, for example, the average Indian air gunner wouldn’t have heard of them. Nor would the average American one either. These guns are obviously not aiming at the traditional AA-built segment, but as some have said they may help AA generally in what are more cost-conscious times. AA have been in engineering long enough to determine what is quality (or sufficient quantity for the money). I’m prepared to see how it goes.
