    Very true, Mick. Fortunately, in Ian's case 19,000 posts means a lot of laughs for us.

    Got one of those in a Mk2. But the O ring was the first to go. It never stopped dieseling

    Thats strange. This is an ex club gun complete with open sights that I picked up last night. Its in very good condition. Ive just put a string of 10 shots over my SKAN chrono and its not dieseling. Its doing between 593 - 598 with RWS Superdome so bang on with the power for an Arnie 335. Recoil is very light with no spring noise but I will have to play with the trigger a bit to get it to my personal likings.
    Very pleased.

    Well 'bless my soul' etc. You're right, must be a Surrey thing, my 10 years is up next month. Not so much posting but more lurking and smirking for me.

    In all seriousness, I have learnt shed loads from here and am always amazed by the level of knowledge available, even inspired on occasion, and have met some of you on the way.

    Give yourselves a pat on the back!!
