    Sure you'll enjoy it.

    Though I shouldn't have to have straightened mine, it was a simple task.
    I now have a rather nice shooting sport.
    There was no way mine was going back, considering the serial number it bears.

    Drop me a message when you get it and I'll give you a steer.

    Yes, I don't like boing, prefer a thud!

    And a nice, muted thud it will, no doubt, deliver once you've worked your magic.

    What are your plans for it, anything innovative or just a strip and lube?

    Hi, it'll just be new spring, fitted guides and relube. Might even leave it with open sights.

    Delrin guides?

    Put a scope on or you definitely won't hit anything.

    If your barrel comes in factory spec (bent) don't straighten it and it will be more valuable and collectable compared to the other customised examples

    Actually I use acetal, it machines better

    And yes you are probably right but will have to save up my pennies first

    Would you remember to add the serial number to the serial number thread ?

    Always looking for any cheap, interesting, knackered "project" guns. Thanks, JB.

    Not likely

    Just curious as to the highest number we have over here

    I had a play with mine today, and made and fitted a delrin guide to replace the steel one I had made for it. Lovely now.

    Then I whipped 3" off the barrel. Even better now.
    And power went up 0.5ftlb
