I really like that mate, SPA for your fondness of the '77 and reviving a classic!

 

One thing I have learnt from using one intermittently... Don't forget the safety! The amount of times I've squeezed the trigger and nothing's happened because the safety was still on, is incredible!

kyle

very true pal i keep finding alsorts up there hahaha

 

and SS very very true 4 times already so far lol but thank you for the SP and yeah i do like me old hw77 she is a cracking gun and still has that whack about her when fired i might save up and send her to tony at SFS to get her tuned plus i want to get a nice stock for her to as the one she has is old and tired now a hw97k stock should be ok on her i think (donations welcome )

Very nice, well done!

[andyfr1968 772]

You'll enjoy that, Shay.

 

I had one when they first came out and it's one of the few airgun's I've always really regretted selling. I've had most of the HW springer's over the years and the 77's deffo one of the best.

 

Good luck with it, mate.

 

Cheers.
