Vintage 10m rifle league?

[I. J.]

Thanks for the info Mike. I didn't know anything about it, I was told it was a 'Springer' and assumed therefore it recoiled (and would therefore be in the recoiling category). I liked shooting it, though I am really not used to such sensitive triggers (first pellet in the wall). I was told it had been recently serviced, though the mold seems to contradict that, but a lovely gun non the less. Cheers, Roger.

It is technically a springer but the Giss system makes it re-coilless. The one problem with the Giss system is that the 'original' (get it? ) piston seals, in both rifle and pistol, degrade with age.

Dave Mercer (DM80 on here ) can replace them while hes eating his tea and watching East Enders. Whether you trust someone who watches Eat Enders with your rifle is up to you.

Thanks for the info Ian. The gun belongs to my gun club, I am just fortunate to be able to use it when I can gain access.
