    Dont buy the cheap Wickes ones, they are pony and snap easy.
    I have only just noticed this thread :, I have been frothing at the mouth ever since.
    What a lovely collection of vintage guns you have..
    It’s great to see that they are still being preserved for the future generations to enjoy.

    Excellent, great tip! I used soft tube covered screws, But this seems an even better/tidier solution. Ordered a million online from the UK, the Talons are not sold over here (yet )
