Good afternoon people,
As many of you already know I have been restoring a 40 year old hw35,nude spite the usual snags of a restoration I have noticed that there is slight play at the barrel hinge and although it's only slight at the hinge it's around 2mm at the mussel, I thought it may need a new hinge bolt as it's slightly chewed on the heads, or perhaps new shims either side of the breech. I've even considered giving it a slight tap with a Mallet to nip the end of the cylinder tighter. Any help appreciated guys.
