darren watson 14 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 i've also heard they're crap, and my local gunsmith said the logun S16's werent worth the hassle either. Quote Link to post
rabbit.slayer.no.1 3 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 i did look in to getting one a month or so ago but like above people talked me round. its a shame because they look good rifles on paper. Quote Link to post
darren watson 14 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 my advice would be to have a look at what some of the regulars on here are shooting, as they have been shooting for many years and have a lot of experience with many rifles. I spent 400 quid plus on my first decent springer and got burnt because i didn't have anyone with experience to advise me. im sure for your 400 quid you could get a solid, reliable workhorse of a gun with a good pedigree.

darren watson 14 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 here's a place i like to check for stuff i wanna buy, i could and have spent hours trawling this site! http://www.reviewcentre.com/ Quote Link to post
darren watson 14 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 in fact, personally, if I had 400 quid to buy another pre-charge rifle right now, I'd get an air arms S200, without a shadow of a doubt. Quote Link to post
leepieman123 8 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 s16 shit Quote Link to post
darren watson 14 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 s16 shit the old bloke that owns my local gunshop once said "I'd rather catch AIDS twice than have a logun"!!!! apparently they'd had a few brought back to the shop with problems that couldn't be fixed by them so they had to go back to logun. I even met someone in the shop who new someone who worked on the S16, he seemed quite proud of the fact. needless to say, i didn't mention that the guy he was doing business with was dissing the sh*t out of them the week before because of this, i'll never be tempted by one or anything that looks like one eg.a gunpower stealth.

craig33 10 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 nowt wrong with stealths had loads shit hot Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 nowt wrong with stealths had loads shit hot If they are that good how come you have had loads, if they were good you would have had one or two at the most, they would last! Quote Link to post
rossy08 33 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 huuum seams to be a little bit one sided hear, how many of you that are slating the stealth have had one?????? yes you can every now and again get a bad one,but this is true with all guns. they had a little bit of a bad rep for coming out the factory under power,and this was sometimes true. however its such a simple fix its unberlevable. this proplem has now apparently been rectified. i'v had one or two of them my self,and would happerly have another,as i no a very good freind of myn would also. befor anyone asks i'm always buying and selling guns, only some of them would i be happy to have 2 or 3 times. the gun is very light,has a very large shot per fill,shoots very well,very very easy to work on and with, theres a hole world of after market bits and bobs for them,to me there a very nice looking rifle pleanty of reason to give the a look over. the 2 or 3 i have owned never caused me any problems and i no that is true of andie (base jumper)that had his for around 5 years. this is always a personal opinion,and every one is entitled to theres. do find these guns to have a "marmite" effect.. ill leave the s16 as this thread is about the stelth. atb Andy Quote Link to post
darren watson 14 Posted January 26, 2011 Report Share Posted January 26, 2011 cant say fairer than that. thats why i put the link up to the review center. its a good place to get info off people who have been through the buying and owning process instead of getting second or third hand information. good luck with whatever you decide to get mate and i hope it serves you well Quote Link to post
