i'll try to be impartial when i go look at them in the flesh
do most dealers have demo's you can handle ? or is everything boxed & sealed ?
would be nice to get a feel before forking out
Some have facilities for tryouts, but not many in my experience. If you do dry fire pneumatics in the shop, bare in mind that they are a bit louder when shot with pellet loaded. The breach seal for the 1377 looks to me like the smallest one you get in plumsuerpack from B&Q, but Ive not actually tried it. The packs that I use for P17's are, Mixed o rings 1/16" and Mixed o rings 3/32". About £1.49 per pack!!! Also, Im currently using magic9 oil instead of recommended white lithium grease with success. Oops. Just noticed you asked bout steel breach, not breach seal, sorry!!! You don't have to get sucked into all the aftermarket stuff, they work just fine as they are.

Knowledge is knowing a tomato is a fruit. Wisdom is not putting it in a fruit salad.
