    It seems that the importer, Armex is not interested so I will probably not buy any Walther items again because their customer service is the poorest I have yet to experience from any manufacturer or importer.
    None of the usual spare part suppliers I use (Airgun Spares or Chambers etc.) stock them.

    Cheers for the information diagram. I used it to find the site and have registered as a customer.
    Found the parts eventually which was not that easy because of the way their site is laid out but had a dog of a job getting them to go into the basket. Then the nightmare of paying by credit card without the use of the translator which had to be turned off!
    Eventually I had success and now its a wait for delivery. just hope that that is more efficient than their website navigation.

    Definitely disappointed with Armex though so I will probably be one customer less for them. I will be sending a formal written complaint to their CEO for the total lack of any response from them on 3 separate occasions. Customer service must be their weakest point!

    Just out of interest, why do you need a new cylinder, Ray ?

    I only ask as the cylinder is pretty much a none wearing component.

    I think he is after a piston not the cylinder itself

    Bugger, I'm about 7 miles outside Leicester and I have a brand new piston in my parts bin.

    Well, I was thinking for something else, to be fair (I'll tell you next time we speak).

    But now you mention it...

    Only if it's totally a spare and you're never likely to need it; not desperate.

    In that case a 16j piston service kit is good value

    The hole for the cocking lever is soft and burrs easily Mick.

    Allegedly hardened on later models
