Q:

Help me Choose, Please.

Okay sorry to sound like a newb but I have narrowed down my choice to these rifles.
Air Arms S410
Beeman Falcon R Used
BSA Lone Star Used

I am going to use it mostly for Field Target and some Hunting.

We’ve seen your groups. I recommend a brick. 😉 😆

Which ever you buy, you will most likely have to sell it as USED.
When buying NEW, try to make sure first that it is a keeper.

I have the Falcon Rs and shot it this morning…It is as accurate as
anything else I have had and is smooth as silk…. Super quiet with an LDC added too….

If I had a more consistant hold this group would be one hole…

Get the Falcon.

What is you reason for suggesting the Falcon over the other two?

You already had a AA410 and I like the Lonestar least of all three.

Beeman will give it support so you should be OK on that.

haha…. I’ll chime in…

Here is my take on these….

The BSA guns are really nice, but the loading is a bit fiddly for some and shot count tends to be a bit lacking. Several people have successfully detuned their Lonestars for a bit better shot count and consistency though so if you want to mess with it, could be fine.

I have a couple model Falcons and they are extremely accurate and are great guns. I dont know how these Beeman branded Falcons are; I have no reason to believe they would be any less than the original Falcons, but……. in general, you may want to reconsider a company that has had as much financial trouble as Falcon has had. Support for their guns has been non existent as well from talking to several well known vendors.

The AA guns have an excellent reputation. They are easy to modify, there are tons of aftermarket stocks and accessories for them. They are based on a platform that has been around for a long time and can even be regged… I’ve got three of the S4xx series and all have been trouble free and great guns.

Hope that info helps in making a decision.

I have heard more good things about the Air Arms line than any of the others…

That’s the repeater isn’t it? 😆

Where is rob3dr? He probably has or had all of them… 😉

Yea he’s kinda like a cop. Never around when you need one. 😆

He should get a kick out of that one!

I have a BSA, they have a few more steps to load the rifle, and the cocking lever in front cannot be resting against a tree, or compromised in any way when firing the rifle, if you are using a tree for support, and the cocking arm doesn’t flow freely, and is just slightly touching, you will interrupt the hammer, and actually watch the pellet leave the barrel in slow motion. as careful as I am with the rifle, it happens, however it is a complete tack driver, same hole at 75 ft.

I had the Falcon years ago, in the carbine, that was one of my favorite rifles ever, another tack driver, and slightly lighter, and the stock was awesome. That was destroyed when the back of my buddies car was rear ended, and all our rifles were in there.

The AirArms is what my buddy hunts with now, and is also very nice, you picked three great guns, any of which you choose you will be happy with. Eventually you will wind up with all of them, that’s just a phenomenon in the air-gunners world.

I Vote For The Beeman Falcon

I could sell you my EdGun for $3000.00 ??? Then Buy Two More, Then Give One Away On The Tag !!!!

I have seen the Falcon in action Once and it is a great gun.
I owned an older AA S410. It was Okay, I think the shroud was clipping.
A friend of mine has a BSA and it is a tack driver.

test

Seems half the guys here have an S410, doesn’t seem you could go wrong with one. I went with a BSA superten.
