    Thanks for the offer pav, I think you’re about 170 miles north from me though. Just found one at a shop about 45 minutes from me in .25 though, says he can change the barrel to .22 for me if I want it, as they sell barrel kits as well. Might call in and have a look and a chat about it.?
  2. Dervburner
    ??? yeah!

    Well I’ve been phoning around to get some information about crowns in stock or availability. All I seem to get is feeling like I’m being railroaded into paying a deposit over the phone to either hold or order said unit. What’s going on? Seems like hard sell to me, so it’s left me a bit pi55ed off to be honest. Why can’t I just phone and ask for information without being expected to commit to buy before even looking at the item in question. Are they so desperate for my money? Are sales down at the moment I wonder? It’s just put me right off bothering to ask, total downer ?

    Could’ve done with a drop of gravy, other than that it was delicious ? ?

    Still a good result stavross?

    Looking at these posts, has anybody done any tuning that turned out to be worthwhile on a B2? I remember someone having one of these in the seventies, I don’t think they went by the same name back then. There was an underlever model as well, called the lion.
  8. Dervburner
    Well that’s a fair service anyway?

    There’s a project ?.........or three?

    The old paratrooper brings back some memories. That’s the rifle I always wanted as a kid. Some friends had them, don’t think they were very powerful though? They just looked the b0//0ck5 at the time?

    Is that a cycle inner tube repair patch on the crown buddy bottle? ?

    As a matter of interest FD, roughly how many shots until the .222 was shot out?

    Let’s see what we get on 1st August then............ ‘The new general licences will be issued in early July to give us time to adjust to them by the time they come into force in August. Let’s hope it’s workable.

    Shipment on the way apparently, should be here next week I’m told.
  16. Dervburner
    Phoned the shop back today, they confirmed the same. Shipment on the way, will include fac crowns. ?
  17. Dervburner
    Yeah, not cheap Phil. This is doing my head in now, starting to wish I hadn’t called in the shop? should’ve got another slot for .25 as well, then have a crown and an impact? but I didn’t do that for this very reason.
  18. Dervburner
    This impact has got me thinking vm. Do you know anything about these new impact mags, they’re huge, I think he said 30 rounds? You take the clear cover off to load, just drop them in. No spring tension that I could see, looks like a D shaped centre boss that drives the unit?
  19. Dervburner
    I was impressed when I handled one today Phil. I handled a dreamline in synthetic and dreamlite and also a crown for comparison. These were all 12ft lb guns, only the impact was fac, I asked about an fac crown and it’s looking like a week or so if I wanted to order one. I’ll phone them back for more details on that, probably tomorrow.?
  20. Dervburner
    Yes, by the time I got home the shop had left me a message on my answerphone saying that section 1 .22 crowns should be available in about a week. I haven’t phoned them back yet for details.
  21. Dervburner
    Well I’ve just had a look at a the latest impact, it’s got a new design magazine. I was impressed by how quiet it is on max power. A nice hogue grip and a new type plenum chamber. Seems like a good tool, but I don’t know if I can get past the looks. I enquired about a section 1 crown. Apparently ASI aren’t the importers anymore, I was told it’s sportsman that have taken fx on. Don’t if that’s a good thing or a bad thing?
  22. Dervburner
    More choice of rifles and ammo available in .223, but I think .222 is a nicer round to shoot. .222 is supposedly less effected by throat erosion due to its longer case neck, but whether that would be an issue to most shooters, I don’t know? I don’t think that you’d notice any difference in performance between the two.
  23. Dervburner
    Yes, I’d noticed that?
  24. Dervburner
    Yeah, I was wondering about the dreamline, I’ve seen one as a bullpup with carbon bottle. Don’t know anything about them though? On https://www.guntrader.uk/guns/air-rifles/fx/pre-charged-pneumatic/22/dreampup-carbon-bottle-191119121305007 edit to say, I know this one is 12ft lb, but I assume they will be available on section 1

    Worn crank seals in a two stroke will allow air to get sucked in, only effecting the mixture enough to be noticed at tickover speed.
