Oh my days! Original 35 help

[tinbum]

I have been sent an Original 35, the phrase "Some assembly required" springs to mind.

What do I do with this lot?

Don't panic.

Check you have all the bits. Parts diagrams on a couple of spares websites.
Check all the bits look ok, no excessive wear, damage etc.
Work out if & what you need, cost it.
Then have a look on the previous articles on mod 35/50 triggers & see if it's something you feel you can do. if it is then order the parts if your sure it seems like a good idea in terms of cost, final value, practicality.
Then just take your time & set about it in an organised fashion. If things don't go right first time have a beak, read up on it again & settle down to it when you are ready.
Looks daunting, is fiddly but others have done it.....

Nick,
When I rebuilt my Original 35 there was a good youtube vid. It was in Spanish, but tbh, the video gave you all the visual info' you needed.

I scanned a good article in an old Airgunworld magazine on these, I'm just in the middle of swapping computers but I should have a PDF of it for the weekend, Nick.

All I can remember is that you have to grease your balls before inserting.


Hope this helps




All the best Mick

Cheers Mick, I haven't degreased since the WI beetle drive, so that should be fine....

Oh, you're a great help!

Guy gggr knows how to fix that for you, its on his idiots guide over there ... Basically you need a lot of grease and three hands.

I've never done one! I was supposed to be getting an Original 50 off here a few years back--then the bloke "Remembered" he had promised it his son. A speculative Pm a month or so later and he said his son had sold it.

I'm pretty sure Phil had posted how todo it in the guide though.

I have a 50 and a 27 with this trigger, I made a spring compressor from two lengths of 6mm allthread and two
plates, penny washers and nuts.

The front plate has a slot cut in to fit over the barrel and the back plate has a drilled and tapped hole in it .
A long bolt is screwed through the plate and a shouldered spigot fitted to the end of the bolt , the ball bearing
cage fits onto the spigot , well greased balls in , outer sleeve slid on and screw it in with a wiggle or two,
dowel pins in , job done !

I once stripped down a 50, got sidetracked, put it all in a carrier bag and went back to it over two years later.
To this day I can't fathom how I succeeded in getting it all back in place and working but as has been so eloquently stated loss of grease on your balls helps a great deal

Ps good luck!!!

Try this Nick :- https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/amer...ock-t4845.html

Imagine the assembly as a quick release air coupling.

I kept a perfectly straight face whilst I typed it Gav --- honest.
