I have found a washer specialist on tinternet and 2 are on the way.
Seems your idea re Mcr airguns was spot on!
The Centre is getting very popular after R1 of MPL ! Unfortunately it looks as though I will have to dust off my 65 for R2!
Thanks

Good luck rebuilding your Centre Paul - we have been surprised just how well they shoot at RMTC - even our very "high mileage" example is working well since John rebuilt it - and it has a nice trigger too!

If we can fix the elongated slot that used to be a round hole for the pivot pin that holds the underlever it could be quite good - but ours is so worn that it drops down as the shot is fired and has some effect on the grouping!

With the MPL scoring system - any good "kicker" has got to be very competetive ( the rules were made this way to encourage the use of these less complicated and therefore cheaper pistols) and I hope a few more of them get pressed into service in the future to show what they can acheive. The top score and Round One MPL Club Champion for Rivvy used a kicker to beat all the other Rivvy shooters so there is some proof already to show what can be acheived with them.

Keep us posted about the progress with the Centre rebuild and don't hesitate to contact us if you need any help - I did notice ( after we already fitted the leather washer to ours) that Chambers have a nylon washer in stock and that would fit with a lot less work.
