Now I wish I'd known you at the time and talked you into overhauling mine!

    Well done.

    If you get another one I’m sure we can sort out an overhaul for you.
    It took some experimentation to work out how to make the seal, concentrics can be tricky, but now I’ve sussed it out it should be pretty easy to do another one.

    That adjustable breach seal is a really clever idea.

    Cheers,
    Matt

    Thanks Matt - I thought the same but as I say my example did not perform at its best. Shame really as I had a yearning for one of these ever since I first saw one in a 1960s/70s Gun Digest index.

    Kind Regards,

    John

    This pistol would make an ideal sidearm for it...

    I’ve seen early weihrauchs branded as ‘Burgo’ too.

    There's also Hofmann Premier that imported them pre Hull Cartridge days!

    I think it was Danny Garvin that had a Burgo one 👍

    A nicely machined polyurethane parachute type piston seal would make a world of difference to performance.
