Have a chat to Richard Leonard - a South African who has brought his gear here I believe?

Richard is now at Swazi in Levin....

Hope this helps? He may know the best method?

Yes I do.
I also have a NZ police import permit giving me permission to import my AA S410 into NZ, just can’t find a shipper who will transport an air rifle 😡😡😡

Do you have a NZ firearms license? You need one to own a pcp.

My 410 “f” classic is a sub 12.
And yes I do think it is a FABULOUS little gun 😂 absolutely love it.
And it’s just killing me that I can’t get it over here.
Anyone know a good shipping/courier company that will ship a pcp for me???

I will send you a PM.

Was it an FAC, or full power version?

Hi Myson,
I’ve also never seen a 410 with a side lever.
Maybe that’s what the “SL” in the name stands for.
I think my 410’s designation is “S410 f Classic”.
Not sure what the “F” stands for…?

Hi Paul,
Sounds like an interesting gun, especially the bull pup stock.
Did the S510’s come with a factory reg, or is this an aftermarket one you have fitted?
Do you have any pics and a price in mind?

Hi Paul,

Yeah - I think mine is quite rare?!  I expect this is a later S410 model (?) when Air Arms converted to side levers?

Whatever, it's my favourite PCP (if I had to choose one)! It makes a distinctive sound when fired and is so accurate (without a regulator!). And it's lighter than my lovely S510...

On hot days I dab jam on my target faces and shoot bluebottles at 60yds (my zero) all day long!!!
Splat! LOL

We are blessed!!!!

Best recent shot with this rifle is a Starling at 137yds out of the tops of a macrocarpa - it just dropped stone dead, lights out!

Anyone else out there with a side lever S410?

Well there you go. I didn't realise the 410 had a side lever.
My only experience with them was with the strait pull bolt.

Hi Pete,

See this:




This is my S410 SL Classic .22 model with a side lever instead of a bolt.

If you look down the right-hand side of the rifle you'll see a round silver power adjust button just below the magazine. It's shown in the High Power position - for Low Power, you just turn this button clockwise.

If you choose to look at Paul's S510 Carbine .177, you are most welcome to meet Paul "halfway" at my place near Feilding if you'd like to?. Then you can both use my range to check everything out...

It's basically an adjustable transfer port. And I think the only other differences between the 410 and 510 is a barrel shroud and cocking lever as opposed to bare barrel and straight pull bolt.

I'm sure Myson will add photos for you.
