    Haha, I have a spare .177 cal 32 shot mag as it goes, with no .177 Skan to put it on. Is it worth thousands??

    Hiya mate,

    I have a folder of M32 stripdown photos, which I can email to you if required.

    re a regulator - as you know, the Skan's exhaust valve is in the bottle stock (or cylinder in the case of the rifle stock). So a reg' would need to be fitted in the bottle or cylinder. Which I've never heard of being done before...

    I guess it would add a fair bit to the LOP (or again, with the rifle stock, to maintain the 'already very long LOP' it would require the cylinder cut down, which would reduce the air capacity by quite a bit).

    HTH - Phil

    I've sent a zip folder with all the Skan files to your email Kieth.

    Just email me back if you can't open it for any reason, and I'll send you the info separately.

    And good luck with the sale.

    I only have one Skan myself now, so I reckon you'll find it hard to sell the last one.

    Still passing the same old pictures around!

    Stephen is threatening to do a video strip-guide one day, if he feels brave enough!

    Are you ready to sell me your sawn-off M32 yet, JJ?

    Please also forward it to me too,i was searching endlessly for it but no success. All i found was someone done a mod on by addling a pressure gauge to it as a one off!

    Thank you so kind.
