Hello Everyone, I am checking if anyone has used or knows about that specific rifle just a general thought about build quality and accuracy perhaps? able to hunt at 50 to 100 yards?
N/A Aselkon Emperedor LS4
- Thread starter Soapthecommy
- Start date
The Aselkon branding are made in TURKEY quite likely coming out of the same manufacturing facility at KRAL.
There fit and finish ( Appearance wise ) looks a cut above typical turk workmanship in the Kral line ... IMO
The branding never took hold here in the states, but Canada ( Wes at AirGunFun ) was selling some a few years back, tho no idea on current status ?
Track record for the TURK guns is at or nearly ZERO parts or service support
so IMO ... if investing into the brand, be able to work on it yourself & fix whatever might fail yourself.
Just looked where your located ( Lebanon ) .... so if you find the product support in your part of the world to be there ? Go for it !!
Accuracy in these guns appeared very good ... Power not an issue either ... THO ? What power rating your able to buy in your region is an unknown ?
Good luck ...

Hello, thank you so much for your reply, parts wise and servicing should be ok since I'm buying from an official Aselkon dealer, and they're also under warranty guarantee so that's a bit of a plus. As for regulations for power we have non as it's am airgun and all airguns are legal here. So I can use this without any restrictions. I'd like to know more of what you think!The Aselkon branding are made in TURKEY quite likely coming out of the same manufacturing facility at KRAL.

Actually I was looking at the ls3 and ls4 they seem nearly identical in specs and looks, the only difference I can see is that the ls3 has a raisable cheek rest on the stock. And it's 150$ more should I just stick to the ls4?

We know virtually NOTHING about these rifles .... your on your own in deciding and conversation about them pretty much ... sorry.

I have contacted my friend who is familiar with arms in turkey as he's Turkish himself, apparently Motorhead was correct in them being the same factory as KRAL. They also have been improving their build quality and apparently the build quality has improved over the earlier batches. aselkon is contractor for Turkish government so I would assume they mean business. Either way I'll have it by next week and I'll update you on the build quality and reliability as that's the only way! Thanks everyone for helping me choose my first PCP and special thanks for Motorhead for giving me the push I needed to buy one.

I bought an MX6 a few years ago. Not what I would call a quality rifle. Not bad as a beginner rifle if you’re looking to learn and do lots of tweaking . I think you’d be better off looking at the JTS brand or something from Snowpeak.
Here are a few of the issues I saw.
Bottle threads were cross threaded
The barrel crown was poorly done , chatter marks
The valve and hammer springs were pretty bent
Trigger was awful, no adjustments
Side lever had a lot of play
That’s just from what I remember.

I had a bad experience with Snow peak before got two rifles that just leaked. I will be keen on looking at the crowning of the ls4 once I get it. I don't mind anything as i can get a full refund or repair instantly if anything bad happens. I'll just give it a shot, i got the LS4 which apparently is their flagship model

Hello Motorhead, got it today. out the box the quality is very nice, the crown is also well made with no problems visually it seems. wood is absolutely nicely stippled and feel;s much beter than i expected. parts wise i got reassured by the dealer that all parts and repairs are available over the next 5 years if not more. I am attaching some photos for everyone to see and i'd like to know what they think of it from my photos as well. The hard case is great too.

Ran into an issue but it was the scope, I basically ran out of elevation as I was shooting a bit low. And I guessed it's the very cheap scope mounts I had on which I changed today to something better, will sort it out soon and I ordered a pump to be able to charge it more often. Only managed 30 shots because the gunshop only managed to fill it to 150 bar. Not the best start but the gun is powerful and working as intended it seems

That or I accidentally adjusted the turrets up too much so it's actually hitting lower on pellet rise will check tomorrow or Saturday after I get my new pump for a lot of trial and error
