tomburras 2,721 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 Never used a 35 in my life but from speaking to a guy on the range a couple of years ago he stripped a 35 and he said the pins drifted out with a punch but it came our one way easier than the other as one end was flattened more but never done it but thaught it's worth mentioning. 1 Quote Link to post

charlie caller 3,654 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I would not knock the pins out mate, undo the screws and take the barrel off, watch out not to bend the two washers underneath. 2 Quote Link to post

talt 878 Posted February 24, 2017 Report Share Posted February 24, 2017 I would agree with tomburras that the bsa is a cadet major. I have an old one that gets used for plinking in the garden. Quote Link to post
