Airgun refurbishers in the Hertfordshire area ?????

[mjr88 50]

Hi all

 

I have recently purchaced a mid 1970's .22 Weihrauch HW35. Overall the rifle isn't in bad condition apart from the low power & a stock that is a bit scratched.

 

Yesterday i fired off about a dozen pellets through the chrony ( Crossman premiers )and the rifle only produced 1.71ft 11bs. 232 fps average.

 

I was just wondering if there are any Airgun guru's around the Hertfordshire area who could bring the rifle up to date and get her shooting at her best again , (HERTFORD/WARE) borders , otherwise it means sending the rifle off & chancing the postal system.

 

The name that keeps popping up is bonnie & Clyde ( Dave Hall ) as the main man , but he is based somewhere near WORKSOP , which is about a 2 and half hour drive from where i live ( 150 miles )

 

I'm not a handy person so doing the work myself is not an option , although i might have a go at doing the stock refurbishment myself ,

 

Many thanks ,

 

John

Hi Mate

 

Have you tried calling Park Street Guns nr. St Albans. http://www.gunshot.co.uk/

 

They've always given a great service with both my shotguns and air rifles and if they can't help, have recommended others.

 

If not, you could always send the gun via courier, http://www.parcel2go.com/

 

Good luck with the gun, it'll be a dream after some work!
