Will it make the rifle any shorter than with the hw silencer was thinking more towards the air tech ones as opposed to the hugget.
That'll probably be a bit different then.
I've got no experience of Airtecs work but, I only ever hear good things about it

It's bang out of order - people are entitled to their privacy.
If I caught some c**t looking in the cubicle that my daughter or missus was in, drowning would be the least of his worries.

The Huggett kits look really nice but, they're no more effective than the standard Weihrauch mod.

It's good that they're going to a good cause
..... I hope you kept a couple back for you and the dog though.
That's a nice bunch of rifles you got

Very nice little rifles
If you're not on Bullpup mad forum, give them a look. Someone on there has done a lot of work on one of these

I popped into my favourite RFD yesterday to buy some pellets ...... Wiltshire Shooting Centre in Devizes. I only wanted pellets but, on the used gun rack, they had a .177 Prosport.
I keep hearing good things about these so, I ended up coming home with it
I love my .22 TX HC. I've spent a lot of time getting it just how I want it - it's a proper keeper.
I'll move the Prosport on soon - I only bought it to try it.
I took it to Black Cat today to give it a whirl and, I was pleasantly surprised. It's a very nice rifle to shoot ......
It came with an AGS 3-9x40 scope with a duplex ret - it's actually quite a nice little scope and, it goes well with the rifle.
The Beech stock has a couple of tiny dings.
The barrel has some rust spots (no pitting) and blemishes but, the main body of the rifle seems to be clear.
The underlever works surprisingly well. To be honest, I think I was expecting some flexing but, it's solid and well made.
The rifle has more weight than I was expecting but, that's not necessarily a bad thing.
In comparison to my .22 TX, while it was still original - this Prosport has a quick firing cycle with a gentle thud and, not harsh recoil. It's accurate and a pleasure to shoot.
I put a load of shots through it then, put it over the Combro with FAPs:
S1. 801fps / 10.41ftlb
S2. 793fps / 10.21ftlb
S3. 795fps / 10.25ftlb
S4. 801fps / 10.41ftlb
S5. 801fps / 10.39ftlb
S6. 794fps / 10.23ftlb
S7. 795fps / 10.25ftlb
S8. 792fps / 10.17ftlb
S9. 782fps / 9.91ftlb
S10. 786fps / 10.02ftlb
There are a couple of things that you guys could help me with please ........
I plan to open it up to see what's in there and, give a general clean and regrease. I've read that problems can occur if the underlever is isn't reassembled properly - any thing to watch out for here?
What would be a good way to tidy up the barrel?
Send it off for a proper reblue? Patch it up? Go nuts and polish all of the metalwork back to silver?
Although the stock's ok and there's nothing majorly wrong with it, I'm not a fan of lacquered finish over Beech. Is it better to leave well alone? Strip and refinish?
And, lastly, what would be a fair resale value for this?
Thanks in advance for any help and tips

Nice. I hope it goes the way you want it to

If the land owner has requested you to do this, you'd be foolish not to !
It's a minor inconvenience, that will help you keep your Permission.
I've had the dangerous end of a Glock pointed at me, and I can't say it was a pleasant experience !
Fair comment. If it's a prerequisite of your permission, it'd be better to do it.
