    I don't mind not being original, least I know it's 'do able', & if I can get a spare block I might be able to return it to it's as made state if I don't muller the original one. The standard triggers can be set up quite nicely but this might be a good little project to have a play with.

    Thank you for the links to those really interesting sections of the vintage gallery. Food for thought.

    Why would you go to the trouble of fitting one to another makers air rifle, when you can get the wonderful HW35 fitted with one as standard. Or the 77, 80, 95 etc.

    That's a fair question, it would be a quicker easier option if getting a rifle with a Rekord trigger was the only consideration; but if it isn't then other aspects might come into it. Theres the challenge of problem solving, engineering sequencing, materials choice etc. Then at the start there is a choice of what model you might wish modify, is it actually feasible or not , what do you need to take into consideration to get it to work, what's the best way to go about it & for some that might be a rewarding process but I fully accept that route might not suit everyone. Maybe it's a bit like when you could buy hi fi separates, you chose a deck that you liked, then an amp from another maker, perhaps speakers from a third maker when you could have got something off the shelf straight away. Maybe that's not a good analogy, but if you cant get the combination of features you want in something off the shelf what's the alternative. I like tinkering, but maybe this sort oif thing is tinkering on a bigger scale, but I can see the appeal.

    I actually bought a HW77 took the Rekord unit out and fitted an AirArms CD unit to it.




    All the best Mick
