The Air Arms S400 Classic .22 is beautifully made. Very light. Fits in the shoulder nicely. Consistent accuracy. Easy loading.
The cylinder leaked in the first week I had it which was fixed under warranty. Only just over 10ft-lbs from the factory. Bolt action wouldn't stay home, which meant the bolt would uncock itself, resulting in a blowback when the weapon was fired. Asked Air Arms to sort it when they did the cylinder but it's still loose.
I've owned a .177 Carbine version for about 6 months; bought new. I've fired around 1000 rounds through it. Much lighter than my old Weirauch HW80.
In all an excellent weapon, despite niggles. Recommended
