Probably better off asking in the airgun section, mate. Some seriously good guys on there. Sure I read once on there, that crumpled tinfoil rubbed over the metalwork is good? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have an old Dianna 25 that i was given for my 12th birthday here, A few years ago i decided to renovate it as it was well rusty, Ended up stripping it and having it powder coated, well happy with how it turned out.

Holding a jam lid above my head as a target. How thick is that? Hit me right in the soft part of the thumb. A and E job. I've still got a scar on my thumb and a weird looking thumb nail One of my other brothers has a blue line right up his arm where he was hit with a stray slug from the same gun. Kids and gun safety eh? lol 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I can remember my other brothers shouting "no" and a bamboo arrow hit me straight in the eye. One of those moments where everything stood still. f**k me it was painful. I had a red eye for a week but no major damage. My poor old mother was run ragged with us, so we told her I had been stung by a bee.lol 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
