Is there anyone on here who specialises in servicing the above, (sure I've seen something but cannot find in a search). Nothing fancy needed, polishing the sears and smoothing things up etc but I'm up for suggestions.
Thanks in advance.

Theres a couple of excellent videos from shootingatdawn on youtube if you fancy having a go yourself. I'd watched them several times before taking mine to bits and fettling. Trickiest part was getting back together but do everything in the right order and be patient and it slotted together ok.

Be good. And if you can't be good, be good at being bad.
As above, there have been a few tutorials that are good and informative fir those wanting to do the work themselves.
I'm not aware of anyone off-hand who you could use commercially, but would guess that Tony Wall at SFS and Lyn Lewington (venoman on the BBS), amongst others, would do it for you.
However, many are happy with just a general de-grease/de-gunk (flushing and cleaning the unit) with paraffin / GT85 etc., allowing to dry, lubing with light oil and a careful adjustment. Maybe worth a try if you haven't already done so?

I did one of mine. Take your time, make notes and its pretty straight forward.
I polished the sears etc, cleaned, re-lubed, .....etc and couldn't tell the difference when I had finished from a properly set up, cleaned, re-lubed (sparingly dry graphite) un stripped one. Well, that another 2 hours of my hectic social life wasted. Now I just fit a lighter trigger spring and a Allen screw grub screw replaces the ugly standard one.
