  1. no just got it straight from gunshop, factory standard. going to strip it and re grease it got all the stuff i need, just need to crack on with it haha.. was going to do my 95 firstive never striped a gun down but it looks p1ss easy ive watched the vid like 30 times for each of the 2 rifles and im feeling confident enough Yeah its not rocket science just don't go mad with the grease and it'll be fine, stick a kit in for quid and you'll end of taking it to bed at night, totally transforms them, this ones got virtually no recoil now, just a gentle nudge to the shoulder and seriously accura
  2. Here's ours, soz for crap pic. I'll hopefully get the V-mach kit for the tomorrow. The 97 is my fave to shoot at the mo, its got a V-mach kit fitted by the previous owner and shoots silky smooth at about 11.4 ft/lbs, no idea what the will make with the fac V-mach kit in it but i'm looking forward to getting it put back together and out for a plink, i'll have to nick a scope of off my rimfire as i can't afford to buy one at the mo.
  3. Bootifull Skot You prefer the thumbhole stock? Mines got the standard but i think i'll get hold of a second hand TH stock for it. Cheers Chris.
  4. Hope you aint gotta bent barrel
  5. LMFAO!! I told him that at the face to face and he shot me in the arse with a dart. Started seeing pink elephants and thought he was Dale Winton and i was in Super market sweep!
  6. I picked up an old BRNO model 2 for 50 quid which looked like sh*t but shot well. The stock was broken and there was hardly any blueing on it. Fixed both of these, stuck a Parker Hale mod on it, and it gets a fraction of the time out that my springer get. I still use it if the rabbits are easily spooked and i can't get close enough with the air rifle (which is much better fun)
  7. I'm gonna buy this little baby, might need to do some work on the barrel. She'll get a match trigger and a top class bit of glass on top. I'e been told the mod makes it whisper quiet he says its as quiet as a pee shooter
  8. Nice one Stu. I'll bet you had a huge cheesy grin each time you dropped yer prey shooting a great gun like that. Atb CW
  9. Before i got it tunned with a V mach kit it was not to bad but now its really really enjoyable to shoot, feels like a pcp http://www.air-rifle...-mach/Home.html Excellent, got a kit winging it way from Blackpool for my , canna wait.Bought a cracking 97k from Pedro 68 the other week which has the kit in it and shoots a dream, so smooth
  10. Fair dues bud, its my first and hopefully last bum deal. Bought plenty and sold some stuff so far without a hitch. I'll happily trade with respected well known faces here on a postal basis but for the rest its face to face. Like you say it speaks volumes and i can't get a response on pm or text now either, lets face it if i was given a good gun i wouldn't be on here bleatering like this and i'd probably get mines swapped back without a quibble. He'll hopefully feel like a right tosser in time if he aint already and hopefully won't be able to enjoy his little Titan. Anyways moving on i'm t
  11. Nice one. Love the gun, hows the recoil on one of these fellas?
  12. Nic one Skot, I consider you a mate pal and i reckon us springer lads are on the up here. I see the rifle section has done a post on show us yer guns with plenty of eye candy getting posted, rims and centre fires just don't get me going like air guns though, even though springers are my passion (especially target shooting along with hunting) i love looking at pcps (i enjoy hunting with them too) some of them are works of art i reckons What you say we start up a post on our beloved guns and drool over whatever anyone else posts. All the best pal, see you on the happy posts elsewhere. To
  13. Like i said before i aint too bothered what people think of me but i urge people to beware when they are trading, especially with this muppet Bunny killer, i'll not get caught out again. End of subject.
  14. like 1 of 2 has said 1 mans rubbish is another mans treasure, dont think this is appropriate do you ??? as malt has showed that i dont think it was case he set out to con anyone, just thursodog wasnt happy. and the fact theres no before pics, we're only going off say so. You Welsh guys fair stick together, i'm not an idiot mate, he ripped me off.I aint responding to anything else on the subject job done!!!!!!
  15. .Nothing to do with ceilings and floors [bANNED TEXT], i was ripped off and to be honest i'm FU*KING ANGRY at the lad!!!!!!............. Without photos though it just sounds like a "I'm so great" thread, which is a shame because if he did rip you then you should have shown everyone. Read it any way you want mate, nothing wrong with a bit of self respect.I worked my arse off getting it done and yeah after feeling so pissed off i do feel like blowing my own trumpet. No, nothing at all wrong with self respect. I'd definitely have taken before photos personally. Yeah i kno
  16. Again many thanks Simon your one of the most inspiring people on here and a true gentleman, its obvious when you write about your air rifle experience, everyone including me listens. I've always fancied a little shop of my own doing gun and fishing gear repairs but i've just not had the confidence in the past to go out and put myself out there, thats beginning to change though, instead of blending into the background i'm starting to come out of my shell alot more so its hopefully onwards and upwards. We have loads of shooting and fishing up here. Roe, reds, rabbits, tons of geese and ducks a

  18. Thanks for that Simon, spoken by one of the true gents on this place of varied characters. Gonna post some pics of the rifle and target groups to big myself up a bit more, lol Regards TB.

  20. lmao Pics of its remains and the hole in the target coming up
  21. Hi Simon, Yeah it was described as having loads of work done to it and in very good condition. Thanks for the compliments mate, its a happy outcome after a bit of graft, i'm taking pics of the rifle and the pretty good groups and a splatted blue bottle at the 30 yards so all is well now. I've got to say i'm mad passionate about working on thes guns, i read somewhere that some old gunsmiths still straighten barrels and do their own crown work without a lathe and i'm really chuffed i succeeded in doing this. Its funny as my metal work teacher once told me at school he'd never seen anybody as
