Introduction and questions

Hi,
I am new to this site and I am currently looking at purchasing an AA410 or possibly a 510. I am slightly confused between the different descriptions I have seen on various websites e.g.
F410, classic, S410 etc. Could someone please explain the difference.

The gun I am looking for should be multi shot and have a good shot count. Not fussed if it is full length or carbine, what would you experts out there recommend?

All replies appreciated

Bob

S410 .177 is all you will need, I've had most of them at some time or other, brilliant rifles and easy to maintain once antitamper is out, F just stands for fluted, the S510 has a side lever, but not really needed in my opinion, but I do have a couple of them. Rog and Classic has longer cylinder.

going by your sig you are USA based, so choice depends on what your shooting at and what power level your going to run at, if 12ftlb then .177 is the usual choice but if your above that then .22 is the way to go, both have their advantages and disadvantages
