How did the test go Mitch. Phil
-
I am a little confused here, not for the first time I admit but what exactly is that gun. I thought the PP700 was an SMK or Kral pistol with about 5.5fpe so because this now has a stock, has it been tuned up to 11.1fpe. So just what is it. Phil
-
Not sure that it is the same at all DB, the police have detailed an template letter for us to send to the doctor and for him to write a letter in return. If your doctor doesn't want to be involved, they give a link to an independent company who will do it for us BUT at what cost. I will get a package in about a month going through the new process so I will wait and see what the final instructions are. My daughter and ex wife work for two different doctor surgeries so they are going to look into it for me as well. Phil

Had a chat with the firearms dept yesterday, they are now starting in September you need a doctors report or the application is just sent back, feck feck feck. I know several doctors practices here are not prepared to do any reports so that is going to be fun. My co-terminus shotgun / firearms tickets run out in October but they have said I might JUST get in before the new system starts. Not feckin happy about this, in fact I may have to rejoin BASC in case I need their 'experts' to sort it for me. Rant over............................................................FOR NOW Phil

About the same as .22 rimmy subs. Looks like they do the business Mitch. phil

Well I never thought I would hear our Jimmy say that he loves slugs ?. Just ordered my Verminator .22 fac but no stock in the uk so I think it will be 6-8 weeks which is not great but my variation might take that long anyway. Phil
-
A bit long winded Mitch but in short, poor groups, every time I was getting flyers and just thought it was me but after supporting the rifle fully it was impossible to get any decent groups with any pellet tested. I removed the mod and wow shotgun pattern. It has gone back and will not be coming back, or at least not to me. I have done a deal with my rfd for full refund and an FX Verminator Mk2 compact, .22 fac is ordered which will take a while as none in the uk so 6 - 8 weeks I believe and hope for less. Phil

I have had the piss taken out of me all day today Jimmy at the rfd so a bit more won't hurt. DON'T TELL SI but my new 110k is on it's way back to Hull Cartridge along with my buddy's, what a feckin day, I will tell you more on Saturday. Phil
-
Cheers Alan. It would still need a converter to go to the 20mm thread to fit the shroud.
-
Just for your info Mitch, Liam is no longer doing mods as his rifle tunng work is taking all his time but he did strongly suggest going the Huma route. Phil
-
Brilliant Jimmy, I am trying to get hold of Si as I would like to pop over and see both of you..................it's been ages since we all met.
-
Try this, I put the link to East Anglia but always worth looking at Midlnds area as well because I am North Lincs but come under Midlands. There is one on the first pge in Kings Lynn which will not be far from where you are staying, anyway have a look to see if there is anything that suits you matey.

Thank you Jimmy, if yu are not using it I would like to see if it is better than my Weihrauch mod. Are you going to Si on Sat or Sun
-
Thanks Mitch, I will give him a call this week.
-
Just looked at his website and online shop but there are no mods for sale in fact nothing for the Impact.
-
Right Mitch I am happy to go that route if it makes it quieter but is yours a 1/2" unf fitting and no shroud or does it fit the FX shroud as I cannot get my head round this, being an aging old twat. What exactly do I ask for and I will phone Liam.
-
YES
-
What do you Mitch and Pav on your .25 impacts mod wise.
-
I will say that I would like to try it please Jimmy but here is my problem guys, my Impact is a series 1 shroud / mod and whilst the barrel is 1/2" unf thread, the mod is approx 20mm dia thread so is there a converter to reduce the shroud thread down to 1/2" unf or do I remove the shroud, fit a standard unf thread and not have the shroud. As a test I have just removed the shroud and popped on a standard Weihrauch sub 12 mod but it still has a crack so no better than the FX shroud / mod set up I have. I do have a Wildcat Panther mod but it is a reflex mod and will not fit, pity. Here
-
Okay I know the Airgun 101 channel sells the Donny fl mods and they are shown in use by quite a few guys so why are they crap Alan. I thought Air fective was THE place to go to.................now I really don't know who to talk to and improve things. Phil
-
Not sure they will even fit the Mk1 shroud Jimmy
-
I am going to look into getting a new shroud and a mod because the so called standard mod is rubbish even though I have added felt. I recall the tuning company that specialize in FX Impact fit their own mods and I would like to have a chat but cannot remember their name, someone help please. Phil
-
Thanks DB but I have had a word with my rfd who has some opened tins for me to try next week. The Super-H-Point are very similar to bis pest control which work well but both of the Hobby and H-Point look to have better leading profile than the Bisley Practice and Pest Control so worth getting some of each to test for short range ratting. Phil
-
Are Hobby the flat nose pellets. I did try some Bisley Pest Control yesterday as well which were decent and may use them for short range rats. Phil
-
Should be interesting as the US and SA don't use .177 much so we don't pick up the same level of info as we can with .22 .25 and .30 Phil
