My First Rimmy

[Craig83 52]

Im just about to recieve my FAC iv got FAC Air, 17HMR and .22LR on it.

 

Im looking to buy a .17HMR first.

 

What's good and what's not? Id like a tactical stock first, and fairly cheap.

IMO you can't go wrong with a CZ.

[Craig83 52]

iv heard the trigger pull is a bit agricultural on them.

 

Is the second hand market good on them?

[walshie 2,804]

I haven't changed the trigger on mine, but if I wanted to it's a 5 minute job and £12 for the kit apparently. I doubt i will as the trigger seems to suit me, perhaps it doesn't suit others.

 

There's plenty of second hand ones around.

[Craig83 52]

where is the best place to find second hand, there doesnt seem many on gunstar. Not the sort of thing im looking for for the right money....i missed a lovely CZ Silhouette on here for a really good price

[walshie 2,804]

piece of piss

+1 for the CZ

[hutchey 147]

yup, dead easy, i wasnt sure it would be but it really is. push the pins out slowly and mind the spring popping out and its that easy

[Craig83 52]

can you get better triggers for it?

 

also iv heard about "creeping" whats that?

[hutchey 147]

yes, rimfire magic do them and so do other places. £14 delivered mine was. It makes a huge difference

 

my understanding of creeping is that its the amount of play the trigger before the firing pin goes. the standard trigger on mine was stiff and jerky which caused pulling of shots (it was a new rifle to a new FAC holder)

 

changed to the middle spring option in the kit and bosh, no floppy or jerky trigger, just a short precise pull and bang
