    FWB Strip Down.

    Nice one tony, a reusable cable tie is essential when stripping them & rebuilding to prevent safety slide damage i remember.

    Absolutely. "Back in the day" we would use an elastic band to perform said duty. But I was informed by Hsing-ee a few years ago that a "laggy band" was far too eighties and that these days a cable tie would be more apt.

    If i could have afforded one back in the 80's i'd have probably used a laggy band too, had to sell my 124 to pay for a set of false teeth along with a lovely HW35e & my bsa 635 magnum in recent years but at least i had one for a few years.

    Would that be the same laggy band that keeps your hair in a pony tail Tone?
    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in
