SLR

In 1988 the first Theoben® SLR 88 ‘Self Loading Rifle’ was made. Production of this excellent and popular rifle lasted for only four years as manufacture of the complex components was proving too costly. CNC machinery made it possible to re-introduce this superb rifle, as too did advances in our own patented designs of the H.E. System and Evolution trigger. New production methods allowed excess metal to be machined away to lighten the gun. So once again the superb benefits of this magazine fed, multi-shot, self loading underlever rifle are available to you the customer and shooter.

The SLR uses our H.E. (High Efficiency) Gas Ram System with floating Inertia for ultra low recoil. This gives a highly consistent muzzle velocity (1% on test rifle with Crosman Premier Pellets). It also allows for a low cocking effort and no internal maintentance is required.

The Evolution Trigger is a two-stage system with adjustment for second stage weight and travel down to 1½ lbs pull and also has an automatic safety catch. A world class German barrel is fitted and choked for superb accuracy. A right hand Walnut stock is fitted with a chequered pistol grip and forend (left hand also available).

The rifle is finished to the usual high standard of polished and blued steel. Experience has shown that Theoben® rifles, being of such high quality, retain their value over time if they are kept in good condition. Slide the magazine into the SLR -- each time the rifle is cocked with the underlever, a pellet is loaded into the breech ready to fire... simple!
