Hi Bernard. You can buy a new leather piston washer and rivet from Protek if you want or make up a new leather washer set up and reuse the rivet OR use a largish countersunk screw and stick a nut or piece of tapped roundbar on the inside of the piston. I have done a few guns like this. Good luck with it.

cheers for that do protek do them for that gun or are they universal mate.....

Hi
Hi Chambers do a piston seal kit that comes with the leather seal, spacer and a new rivet for a reasonable price. Just done my earl and late Relum's with this. If yours is a 322 a good mod is to also remove the pip on the cylinder end stop and fit a Meteor Mk5 spring and a BSA Cadet spring guide and remove the inner spring.

well i have striped this down and the was a square section spring in it no inner spring and very hard to cock but the pad on the cocking arm is worn need to do something with this as well .......
