    Plenty on the bay, and B&Q sell brass tubing in their metal rack, got some there to use on a Crosman revolver.

    For some reason the Bay vendors only do the thin-walled stuff, 0.45 or 1mm, so I have bought some from the model supplier mentioned above. They do 4mm OD 3mm ID, and 4mm OD 2mm ID.

    If this is all for your Hawk MK3, Alistair?

    The using a Vulcan breach seal allows you to sleeve the transfer port right through from the cylinder face to the breach face --- I only mention this as the Hawk breach seals used to be different to the Vulcans.



    All the best Mick

    Yes, and thanks, that will save me the glueing and cutting! The tubing will come in helpful for other things...
