Top job! :good:

 

I done the metalwork on my dad's old HW35e a few years back, wish I'd have taken pictures now. :( It's a great feeling when you finish shining the metal up with fine wire wool and oil and it looks like new. :thumbs:

I've gone ahead and bought:

Hopefully that'll do the trick for him, it's funny because I could here the spring moving when it wasn't cocked, something was rattling and i'm guessing it's snapped in the there

 

 

You got that at right money :thumbs:

Good- i've never heard of them but it was the only one I could find which actually mentioned the osprey! and there was another one for £17.50 then postage of around 3.99 on top of that, the rest were Oxbow spirngs

You mean to say you didn't take it apart????

 

Mate I thought that would have been the first thing you'd have done. No only would it have given you access to see if there was any damage to any internal parts such as the spring and piston washer but it would also allow you to degrease, clean, polish and regrease properly ensuring a proper working rifle.

 

Nice job on the blueing and stock though

If you're after parts for your Osprey, they're basicly the same as the Tracker.

 

There's really bugger all difference between them. Webley launched the Tracker way back when but it was only ever an Osprey with a short barrel, then they 'introduced' a long barrel version of the Tracker.... Hmmmm.....

 

Nice work, mate. :thumbs:

 

Cheers.
