rapidjenky 97 Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 careers are renound for the end of the barrel being bent. were its threaded for a sliencer the barrels are very very thin and the slightest knock with a silencer fitted and knock them off zero easily. i had a mk3 a while ago and the barrel was sh*te! the pellet was tight then slack then tight all the way up the barrel and it grouped at around 2" at 10 yards. if your in the northeast mate give me a shout ive done quite abit with the careers.

jai$1 1 Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 the barrel will be bent i have seen so many and repair most of them quite easy to see if you screw a silencer on and look down the length of the rifle you will be able to see the silencer off to one side or in this case bent down Quote Link to post
