BSA r-10 or rapid mk2

[John-B 4]

But i'm stuck, please discuss the pro's and cons of each rifle

[bedrock 16]

I’ve had the rapid and a few BSA PCPs Including the super10 which is what the previous model before the R10.

 

.The R10 costs less than the rapid.

.The R10 has quick fill and a pressure gage the rapid doesn’t.

.I think the rapid mag system is better and more reliable than the BSA one.

.The rapid is available in .20 cal

.The BSA has a shrouded barrel and may need an added silencer, were as the rapid has a vortex silencer as standard.

The early R10 models had some problems which had to be sorted buy BSA were as rapids are bombproof.

Good luck with your choice.

Look at the after care to customers and services of BSA and Theoben and there you will find your answer pal.

 

I doubt you will find a better service than with BSA. I know that people have slated Theoben for their poor after care.

 

Accuracy wise you wont be able to tell the difference if you have the right pellet for each rifle. They both will out shoot you or the best shot you know.

 

The vortex silencer will be quieter than the standard shrouded barrel of the R10 but for an added £33 you can fit a SAK silencer straight onto the R10 with makes it very quiet. I know as i use one on my R10 mark 2.

 

Both rifles will be great rifles what ever you choose pal.
