    No word of a lie . It was a bloke at work .
    Is Tinbum a registered trademark? If it isnt then it may be being used as slang for a part modified from metal cut from a tin-can and fitted by a bum (worthless person), rather than the excellent delrin tuning kits made by Cornwall's finest twanger expert.

    In all fairness , you are probably correct.
    He had heard off someone about Nicks kits and that this bloke had also put a sleeve from a beer can in his rifle. He possibly thought that that was all he needed to do .
    He is the sort however that uses a steel dustbin as a chrono .

    To be fair, I have HAD to sell rifles because I genuinely needed to free up funds. I also run a strict "one in - one out" system
