No probs Richard, I managed to get what I needed from Vic at Protek. I would love to go to Kempton some time, but the prospect of a 400 mile round trip in one day and a dodgy back keeps putting me off. Some day it will happen!
Cheers

Hello John,

Another fascinating project which will no doubt be followed closely by all admirers of your ingenuity and engineering skills in producing these prototype and experimental air pistols. The only problem is that it means we will have to wait even longer for an updated Encyclopedia of Spring Air Pistols or indeed a new book dedicated to air pistols that didn't make it into full production and the making of your superb reproductions.

Regards
Brian

I have a stack of scrap barrels in .25, .22 or .177, mail me what you need and I'll send some up then, can even chop and blue them if it helps?

Kempton is a great day out, train maybe?

Thanks for your kind offer Richard. I have sent you a PM. Interesting suggestion about trains, I will look into it.
Cheers, John

Well that puts everything I have ever made to shame, love the idea of making something that never was!

The trigger release looks to be a interesting part to get "just right"

Not sure what train changes are necessary John, but the venue has its own station which is 100 yrds from the entrance. We have been honoured with the presence of some fine Yorkshire men at our previous fairs, maybe a car share might be a possibility.

As you know, Pete, I hang on your every word. I was just reading to the end before making the same suggestion. Sharing the driving and petrol makes it an even better day out.
