Kalibrgun 931 Posted October 18, 2020 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 Do the tin bum kits really make that much difference ? Quote Link to post
Baldcoot 2,352 Posted October 18, 2020 Report Share Posted October 18, 2020 Got 1 in my Remmington, far better now.Having polished the internals ,the delrin guides make for much smoother action. Having each end of the spring "cushioned" removed the "twang" from squeezing the trigger. More consistent power and less noise with a smoother cocking action i think it was worth it imho 1 Quote Link to post

Cut the pointless plastic tube off the end and fitted and 1/2unf adapter. I’ve been pondering about doing that with my Remington Sabre Thumbhole in .22 Did you actually cut the mod off or break it up,is that a guntuff 1/2 adapter if so what size diameter did you buy?should imagine be same diameter for Sabre,the only thing that has put me off is inaccuracy and whether if not lined up properly would cause clipping of new mod. would you say there’s a difference in noise level? sorry for so many questions Quote Link to post
Baldcoot 2,352 Posted October 19, 2020 Report Share Posted October 19, 2020 Cut it off about 1" from the backend and cut away what remains. The adaptor has a 16mm hole as the barrel is 15.2 mm and its a snug fit . The way to stop clipping it is to ensure your cut is as straight as possible so the adaptor sits true . The noise by your ear sounds the same as its a springer but the bang end is quiter imho. Atb 1 Quote Link to post
