Sako.243 1 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Heard the Forestry Commision boys were having problems with them as they cant be stripped down and cleaned, They were blowing the end off them with excess use. Quote Link to post
SNAP SHOT 194 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 the main reason i think the pinholes are forming from the inside out is that when firing the rounds thruogh the mod creates heat this then condenses on the inside of the mod as it cools forming droplets of moisture therefore causing it to rust when left....... personally i would prefer the strippable mods over the fixed versions, and i had a t8 also....... needless to say it's fooked now Quote Link to post
shortshot 0 Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Jackson rifles will supply a replacement at 60% new cost ie £125. I've just replaced a 5 year old one but a 2 year old one, I'd be more hesitant over. 6 months from when I saw rust blister to when I finally traded it back. First time last week I thought it sounded a bit louder and you could blow through hole (about 3 inches back from front end) Spoke to Jacksons and their service was brilliant, had a new one direct within 48 hours.

snapper5 0 Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 I take mine off when I get back, squirt some Napier cleaner in the end and stand it in a little plastic box to catch any drips. Has stopped it rusting (so far!) S Quote Link to post
