Short stroked by 20mm lightened piston and running on rings ....polished trigger contacts ....new trigger blade .....recrowned barrel and all fitted in an oiled hw77 stock and running at 11 and a bit ftlbs consistantly (i need to put it back over the chrono once run in a bit)
So much smoother than standard just a click when the piston latch engages the trigger

Strange how my avatars and settings keep getting either deleted or messed around with
Just a matter of relieving about an inch or so at the top of the stock where the 80s cylinder will go ....a little of chiselling to get the front lugs to fit then drill for 2 m5 countersunk bolts ala tx200 .....if i was to do it again i'd go with brass inserts ....it's easier to do than type it on my phone

Old thread but well worth a read
very good write up
Lovely stuff!
I have been tossing over a peep sight project (sounds a bit dodgy!) lately.
I have discounted the TX as being in the too awkward box, but mulling over the HW77 and HW95 (open sighted, longer barrelled version obviously).

Maybe I should throw the 80 into the mix as well having re-read this thread.
I have had some of Dave's work - fantastic stuff. About a year ago I got one of his latest spring and guide kits for a 95 - lovely.
In the current climate it's nice to read something so wholesome as this thread!
All the best,
Tim
Well, with lots of revived (again!) interest and love for the HW80, thought I'd ping this up again.
