Well I can tell you Jimmy, Si has just popped round and we placed the recoil pad in position and he LOVES it so I dare say we will be taking one of the clay traps out this weekend to put both the gun and Si through their paces.

Worn sears,

My old Dianna 25 that i was given for my 12th birthday back in 1977, it was second hand then. The bluing had worn off and rust had pitted the barrel quite a bit, instead of re blueing i decided to have it powder coated, I couldn't be more pleased with the result.

Ha ha! Had a larona that did that sometimes

Yes it was a s/s given to me so I was giving it to another friend so that Jimmy could use it when he visited but having never fired it,  I had no idea there was an issue, it really was bloody funny to see Jimmy taking the full force of both barrels going off together, I thought he did well to stay upright.

Nearly shit my self 

Did not no whether to cry or laugh 

Then I did it another two times 

But if you squeezed the second trigger first it worked fine 

But I just kept on forgetting 

And set both off lol

Mind Phil and si had to pick them selfs up off the ground

Excellent job again Jimmy.

            I really do like how you manage to get those stocks looking so well looked after and still keeping their character of age.

            Here's a HW 77 long I bought from Jimmy and an untouched MK1 HW80 long.

The early MK2 HW77 to the front, the stock was stripped, sanded and completely re stained, worked and oiled by Jimmy, its far better than the original factory stock on the HW80 to the rear 

                   Great work Jimmy. 

                   atb Mark.

A stock landed today from philpot 

A smk xs79 co2 custom stock was going to strip it and cut it to fit something else 

But you no what Xmas is near and I think I need to get a smk xs79 co2 and fit this stock then gift it to my grandsons for plinking 

So that's what I'm going to do

She still looks well Mark 

I did not keep the 77 long but I'm pleased it went to mark 

Who I new would put it to good use 

I'd say it was one of the best rifles he has 

It's sweet to shoot 

Sfs stage 2 tuned and you can tell lads soon as you squeeze the trigger 

I keep saying I'm going to buy it back one day 

But I really think I'd have to prise it out of his hands 

How are you keeping anyway mark well I hope my friend

Doing good Jim thanks.

            My eldest son Mark jnr, is way better than 18 months ago and taking medication for the ADHD problems.

            Starting to get out again now, took the Pro Sport walkies the other day , saw nowt and felt like I`d done a marathon with that heavy rifle, def` a static hunter that one.

            Keep that lovely workmanship going Jim, look forward to reading your write ups, -                               - " twat " x

 

Before I forget Jim I picked up the original front and back sights for her, obviously i keep the rear sight off and safely tucked away.

Very pleased to hear your son is in a better state Mark, it is difficult to see our children having issues no matter how old they are. All the best to you both mate.
