I recently acquired a very nice example of a Milbro Cougar (has all the plastic intact). The Cougar was my first air gun, bought for me by my dad on my 13th birthday.
The nostalgia value of this pistol is obviously priceless & I've wanted another for many years & now have one. I know how much disdain this gun is held in but I care not one jot, I'm so happy I have one.

So, I have stripped the old girl down. Cleaned everything of 40 years of grime. Rejuvenated the in surprisingly good condition leather piston seal. Polished the trigger sears & fitted a pin to the trigger to reduce the travel between the plastic trigger & it's metal insert.
Fitted a PTFE piston sleeve & re-lubed the internals.
Finally I fitted a new leather breech seal. She now shoots well mannered at just over 2ft lbs with Hobby .22's & the trigger is not that bad now.

Now to the issues. I am hoping some of the collectors on here will have Cougar spares. I need the screw for the foresight muzzle unit (screws in underneath the muzzle) & the sear spring that fits in between the large piston latching sear and the smaller sear that the piston sear engages.

If anyone has these to spare I would ask you to PM me to discuss a price.

I know its a beast of a pistol with a far from perfect trigger as supplied, some monkey metal parts & plastic furniture that is the most brittle material known to man but I love the old girl & want to make it the best I can. If anyone can help with any parts/spares I would be incredibly grateful. Not expecting freebies, fair prices paid.

Lastly. Does anyone know if there is a rubber breech seal available that fits the Cougar. The leather seal is working OK but would prefer a more modern seal.

Thanks
