My New Pride and Joy… Paul Short Stage 4 Tuned Hw97kt .22
mark williams replied to C3PO's topic in General Airgun Discussion
I,m the first to agree that tuning spring rifles can be a must do job. Here's my 97, carries a Sandwell kit and internals are highly polished, bought from Simon, Pianoman, great hunting rifles. Here's my TX 200 HC MK3, carries a stage 4 tune from Rat Works, another great hunting rifle. The Pro Sport, totally untouched and deadly accurate, you guessed it, another great hunting rifle.She will stay untouched too by the way. A Sandwell stage 2 tuned 0ld MK2 long HW77, for the classic lovers, taken a hillside of vermin with -
Hi Jason, that same big fella spent a good while telling me how good the 97 was too. I`ve been a .177 man for a good 10 years now and Simon ( Pianoman ) was selling his .177 cal 97 which I duly bought. Not for one second have I ever regretted buying that gun, they are class and thanks for nagging me Jimmy. Best of luck with your 97 Jason - you'll love that rifle.

Well, the improvement in your shooting was immeasurable after the lessons I gave you Jimmy, so if you struggle with that puffer you can always come back again. x Good luck with her Jimmy, enjoy buddy.

Aye up Joe I sell all the scrap metal off my old spring rifles to the Pacemaker manufacturers. Honest. If it goes " Twanggggg" any time it'll be that old MK1 FWB Sport spring I sold them just Twat ! x Time to put your feet up now and again matey and get a well earned rest.

Well I`m no gunsmith lads and had the job done professionally by Arc tuning, Lyndon Lewington from the old Venom team. Here you go. So I think you could say the kit was fitted correctly lads. Taking nothing away from Arc tuning at all, they are a very good, reputable tuning company but in the FWB Sport 124 that kit is crap and will be coming out.
-
Not with a FWB Sport 124 you would`nt.That V-Mach kit will be coming out for sure. Good luck though if it works for you.
-
V-Mach kits turn spring rifles into an aggressive recoiling rifle that are hard to control in the accuracy stakes

Add £150 for the 6-24x50 Airmax John, if he also wants that.
-
How does £ 595 sound without any scope .
-
I am near Wigan John, to be honest what is the going rate for one ? £123,455 would do nicely Here you go buddy. I promise you John she is absolutely spotless.
-
I have a .22 HWKS that is absolutely spotless and hardly gets used John ?
-
I was out with my .177 cal` Pro Sport last night on my range. Absolute tac drivers they are with that CD trigger. Thing is Jake, might be wrong mind but I,m sure I recently read that Air Arms has finally decided to make left handed stocks for the Pro Sport ? Anyways, HW 97, HW77 and HW80 are in my cabinet along with AATX 200 and Pro Sport. I have no preferences Jake, you cannot split a hair between them for me, its all down to your own personal preference buddy. I did once own the Walther ma

Jimmy, if you are still looking for a trigger blade etc try a top lad called Nick Simmons off the HW Owners sites and also the FWB 124 and 127 owners sites you stand a chance there, knowing Nick he'll find one, or make one for you. Mention my name to him Jimmy as he's tuned both of my FWB Sport 124, 127. If it helps any. Mark.
-
Jimmy, Joe, you guys are truly generous, kind people, compliments to you both.

Took my old lady out for an ambush session tonight on the rabbits. Just love shooting the older, classic spring piston rifles. A nice healthy half grown, perfect for the table A 31 yd shot, just instant despatch.

Nice shooting John, that permission does`nt look a healthy place to be at all. Good luck lads

Nice shooting Shot

Lovely job you've done there Jimmy, still has that lovely vintage look too Compliments buddy. -
Atherton indoor range Dave,( great club ) maybe you'll know it ? Not sure if he's still around with all that's gone on covid wise ? Good luck.

Nice shooting Scott. I use a HW97 K in .177 ( bought from Simon, Pianoman ) I love that rifle. Nice to see you around again Buddy

My local range has a resident gunsmith, his speciality is Daystate rifles, he's always very busy and I kid you not.

Awwww the FWB Sport 127, you've finally bought a proper gun Jimmy. x Yep, metal trigger, not the plastic mk1, your rifles serial number 49979. Closest registered number I could find on the FWB124/127Sportowners site was 49992, registered 10/01/82, so an early mk2 Jim. Jimmy they make a first class hunting rifle even at todays standards, once you master that trigger . atb Mark. -
Those TX 200`s don't half rock in the accuracy stakes for spring piston rifles lads. I was in full Camo`, Primos sticks, rifle and dog tucked into the hedges and the wait begins. Maybe I`m on top of the rabbit damage these days on my nursery permission as one single presentation was the only shot of the evening. A half grown munching away, lazed to 46 yards, the TX nestled steady as in the Primos, cross hairs on the back of its eye, touch more, raised the cross hair a half mill dot, then I built the shot. I so, so much prefer spring piston air rifles over PCP`s. Instan

I have the MK1 HW80 but in .22 cal. That rifle hits like a sledge hammer and is blisteringly accurate. So here's a woody off the Rape crops and a Magpie off the chicken pens.
