Sorry to hear you had a problem with the pistol but glad you could fix it.

Never considered a problem with the seal as it has had very light use the last four years before that it was my Pistol HFT gun at Lea Valley so did see a bit of action then.

It took a lot of soul searching to sell it but was just not getting used by me, (two kids and a Pub to run.)

Well back to the Daisy 717 which I can justify keeping as I only paid £25 for it.
