    Unless your name's Mr Gaylord, making the HW95 a 95mm stroke!
    yes (I think it's 86mm, but close ebough)...

    And yes Al, if you short stroke by nose extension, you lose that amount of spring room - which is why a sleaved down 80, with about 75-80mm of stroke, with no space-robbing nose extension, is a great shooter.
    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    OK I was being thick I was assuming you were short-stroking AS WELL as sleeving the 80 cylinder. It all makes sense now....
