   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! 

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?

	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 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…?

	I will send you a PM. Was it an FAC, or full power version?

	Must be "F" for Fabulous, Pete?!!!! Air Arms are the best! And Weihrauchs for Springers! Brilliant rifles...

	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???

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

	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 😡😡😡

	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?
