Overview
The Air Arms S510 TDR (Take Down Rifle) is a British pre-charged pneumatic (PCP) take-down air rifle introduced by Air Arms in 2017. It splits into three sections that store in a foam-lined hard case and reassemble in seconds with a repeatable lock-up, using the S510's smooth side-lever action to feed a 10-shot rotary magazine. Fitted with a fully shrouded Lothar Walther barrel and an integrated Q-tec moderator, the TDR is aimed at hunters and travelling shooters who need a compact, packable rifle without sacrificing the accuracy of the standard S510.

Background
Air Arms is a Sussex-based airgun maker founded in 1983. The S510 TDR extended the acclaimed S510 platform into a genuinely portable take-down format, drawing praise in UK airgun group tests for combining travel-friendly packability with the accuracy shooters expect from a full-size Air Arms PCP.
