Cometa


Recommended Posts

I've somehow become the owner of a Cometa 300 (the one with built in mod I think, or maybe a barrel weight) complete with a Nikko Sterling 3-9x50 scope. Both are in decent condition.

I know the scope isn't up to much, but does anyone know about these guns? Are they worth tinkering with or should I keep it for propping the shed door open?

. 177   or  . 22? 

Put a paper target up, take 20 paces and shoot a 10 shot group and see how you get on, then put up the pic up of your results with the pic of the gun ?

 

... Or it didn't happen ?

Can you put up a picture of it Dave?

 

I'd probably put a couple of hundred of pellets through it to get a feel for it and see what it's doing, then give it a strip and relube.

 

I've got some decent moly here if you want it :thumbs:

 

 

 Strip? Relube? Moly? I'll try to take a pic tomorrow if I remember/can be arsed.

Yes - strip the rifle down, clean up all of the bits and, give it all a proper relube with some molybdenum disulphide grease - it often helps to improve the shot cycle with a springer.

I'll admit, it's a little bit of pissing about but, if you like to tinker with things it's actually quite therapeutic and, the results can be quite satisfying.

 

Your Cometa is probably a good one to have a go at.

 ......... Just wait until we start on about polishing the trigger sears :laugh:
