  1. That's what I thought, I knew someone would catch on to me eventually
  2. We need to be adding bots to the pest control list
  3. Any one else got this person visiting there profile, same person different names, different locations, what they up to?
  4. A lot of people do shoot the Common gull, I've seen farmers shooting them off the back of a tractor when they're plowing, pest control officers are shooting the eggs out of the nests in the towns to cut numbers down, they are pesky aggressive things I've had one snatch my dinner out of my hand I only had one bite as well,
  5. I've just relocated mate, I was living just on the Herefordshire border by the Malvern Hills, beautiful bit of country, but I was in the process of buying my first property and I couldn't touch the house prices so have moved to North Shropshire I've got a detached rural property for the price of a 3 bed semi near Malvern, just got my first bit of permission a good bit as well, over 2000 acres so I'm as happy as Larry
  6. My dogs, all under 12 months coming on lovely, very clever dogs all-around, every one in the family loves them
  7. It's a homemade job by my dad, great having an engineer in the family, the gun is really spot on as good as any of the others kits I have fitted on performance, the idea is to never need to replace it and can handle a power increase if I want it, the Diana 52 is just ticking over at sub 12ft, very impressed, cheers dad
  8. Hi I've just fitted a stainless drop in kit made to fit one of my Diana 52s with a Titan spring, I've run a load of pellets though it playing around today and I've got to say its running just as nice as my other two Diana's with vmack and vortex kit's, is anyone else using them and what do you think of them?
  9. £10 Dunlop's two pairs of socks, I would be scared to get le chameaus muddy let alone ripped on barbed wire
  10. The tbt kit won't fit the Titan spring properly, if the spring guide is too loose it will twang and if it is too tight it will zap the power and make a noise when cocking, I love Titan Springs the quality is brilliant however you have to get top hats and spring guides made up for them, or you can buy them from Chambers, tbt sells genuine weihrauch export springs and the kit will fit like a glove and shoot brilliant, atb meg
  11. The tbt kit's are brilliant for the money as good as any, but what you have to watch it is his kits are made to fit genuine weihrauch Springs, so they won't work right with the Titan spring,
  12. Diana 52, 22. Excalibur, 22 Hw 80, 22. Hw 100, 177 Hw 95, 177. Rapid, 22
  13. Cheers lads, I've used a few dropping kits in the past, but the last one I did I used a Titan spring fortunately my dad is an engineer and he made me my last spring guide and top hat spring guide out of stainless and top hat out of Bronze, I found it much better quality than the dropping and the gun shoots sweet, i didn't want to pester him again to make me some more but as it's Christmas I'm going to pester him, what it is is the listed Titan spring for a hw95 is the number eight, but with the internal diameter of the spring and the hole for the piston rod would make the wall of a spring guid
  14. Hi has anybody fitted a number eight Titan mainspring to the hw95 it's listed as the correct spring, haven't got a problem cutting it down and finishing it off but the original HW spring guide is too tight a fit, most aftermarket spring guides fit the original Springs not the Titan would it be a case of getting one made up, how has anybody gone about this, I thought about putting it in a Chuck and sanding it till it fits but it will make the wall on the spring guide to thin any help would be much appreciated cheers
  15. I did my first tune up on a hw 97 last year, i gave everything attention to detail, mirror finished all internals and trigger, lightly Molly greased, and put back together with Sandwell Field Sports kit, I was amazed at how beautiful it felt to shoot, however after trying to zero in I could not keep a tight group, I tried several different makes of pallets try to put him through plenty of pallets tried cleaning the barrel stripped it back down on two occasions making sure that I had not used too much Grease, the mistake I have made was to mirror finish the piston, I polished out the honing mar
  16. No mate not yet, I'm waiting patiently till the morning I'm going to have the full day playing
  17. Alright si, I was going with all intentions of getting a 22 but ended up with the 177, I've always had 177 springers can't break the mould
  18. I wanted the hw80 or 98, I went to my gun shop today to have a look ended up coming out with a new 95k I love it, it's balanced really well and so light, £295, brand new can't be bad. Hw for Christmas
  19. I suppose you're right mate I can't really argue with that, initially when I brought the 97 it was a toss up between that and an I got the 97 in 177 would like at 22 Springer to go with it, suppose it's just greed really I just got to have the or the 98, but you definitely got me thinking
  20. Hello Jonjon and Mac, stick around I'm going to need you two when I've bought one and messed it up with a tune up, cheers lad's for the help
  21. I've recently purchased the hw97 put a tuning kit in it and after a few complications I've got it shooting really nice, I've got the bug and now shopping for my next hw springer I want a break barrel this time, I'm drawn towards the hw for it's robustness and solid feel and it's legendary reputation, it's going to be primarily a rabbit gun, any ideas on what other hw brake barrel stand's out from the rest is there one with a more solid reputation than the others
  22. Just got back from playing around with the gun, putting some more pellets though it after about 50 pellets still running out about 2in it just started shooting straight I'm now hitting acorns of a gate post 40 metres away, what a relief, it just needed settling in just like you advised cheers lad's
  23. I was shooting pellet on pellet before the tune up the trigger set just right and I polished everything up to a mirror finish, I'll give it a chance to bed in if it's still the same I'll send it to Tony at sfs, I appreciate your help lad's thank you
