    This is going to be a long thread - bitza build - can you guess what it is yet ?

    I got given a PCP action block the other day by a kind chap on the BBS. Literally just the block, with the bolt, hammer, and part of the valve assembly.


    So I figured I may as well build it, up as, all this missing is:
    Hammer spring
    Trigger Unit
    Stock
    Valve
    adapter to cylinder
    Air cylinder
    Barrel

    yeah, this might take a while....

    Started with a gamo trigger as I had one spare, and a section of alu channel to mount it. Just finished the rough milling in the garage, and it's looking good so far.

    Nah, the Gamo trigger would fit onto that.. much easier... Plus they are basically a kit, DIY rifle anyway, so no-one gets and points for making one up. This is more of a challenge

    Some careful measuring and I got the trigger pin hole to line up with the mount, so a single longer pin now goes all the way thru, holding it rock steady I Also machined a concave surface on the underside, so it sits nicely on the cylinder block.

    Just to drill the mounting holes and bolt it on now...
