Sad news my friend John Walker passed away on Wed, another loss to the airgun fraternity, he was a very talented home machinist in his tiny shed and his co2 and pcp conversions were amazing, so glad I knew him and learnt lots of stuff from him, he will be sadly missed but I know that there is tons of his work out there that people really appreciate and so his memory will go on, rip John.

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

Oh no, not another airgun great down. The last 12 months have not been good in this respect. D T Fletcher, then John Whiscombe. Now John Walker. RIP John.Originally Posted by maw1

In British slang an anorak is a person who has a very strong interest in niche subjects.
