    It's about 7yrs+ since I last bought from Jim but used to get regular deliveries no problem. I dont believe there is a UK importer/distributor currently, seems little need when his kit is available direct.

    Thanks..

    wow - @ 4.5mm bore that's massively oversize... small swept volume, SCR must be around 150:1 . With anything other than leather, it would be unshootable...

    I'd go for 3mm bore
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.
