Xjrferret 29 Posted January 31, 2019 Report Share Posted January 31, 2019 I recently purchased a HW 35 from flynndog to refurb. I wasn't going to start straight away but I had a bit of spare time so the trigger has been rebuilt and is nice and smooth. The stock was stripped and has had it's first stain and the action is ready for bluing. 6 Quote Link to post

Rez 4,957 Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 This is interestin. A well know member selling a shed. I wouldn’t expect that. Seems viz has pointed out what I saw but the buyer has said something different. I hope ya get this sorted my man. When the seller can’t spell yard... you have to have your doubts. Killer bike. 1 Quote Link to post
Xjrferret 29 Posted February 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 I'm a bit shocked to be honest I'm hoping flynndog will contact me about it . If I,d known it was bent i wouldn't have bought it. Quote Link to post
vizlauk 1,568 Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 Strange, I remember the post re: the bent barrel, as bigmac had offered to do the restoration on the 35 to help flynndog out, when Flynn had said the barrel was bent ! Check out the older posts , bigmac & si brown, both commented ; as Si had a spare barrel for a 35 ( but that was knackered aswell), it might not be the same gun , but I very much doubt it 1 Quote Link to post
