60p for a purse net … Those were the days 😊
Not sure where I`m going.....But I`ll get there someday
Hang on there, Tone.
I've just realised that I never use the HW80 that I already have, there's also the problem that if I built one I'd want it on ticket, which I don't have.
So if I built one I'd be spending good money on something I couldn't use to it's full potential and it would just end up as a cabinet queen.
I'd rather stick to my planned next build as the next one will be under 12ftlbs and as cheap as chips to make as I already have 3 base guns to start with.
All the best Mick
Mmmm.....okay then, understood. But, then, if you could ever get over your dislike of the 95's trigger block fixing, Jim's suggestion of a 95 based one would be wickedly awesome.
Will look forward to your next project with springy zest.

Accuracy. For those looking for something better than a HW Barrel. Back in the 80s I saw a couple of 77's with FWB sport barrels fitted, just to give the shooter the edge!!. Mach 1.5
The other reason for fitting the Anschutz 335 barrel and breech block to the HW80 was to get a positive barrel lockup.
There was much talk in the magazines back in the 1980s about how a break barrel breech could open slightly during firing altering the pellets POI.
Bowkett offered a breech lock conversion on HW80s to stop this but WBPS went one better in fitting the 335 barrel and breech giving a more accurate barrel and a positive barrel lockup.
All the best Mick
GOOD DEALS...Here,post 6404
Airmasters did it to their FWB sports in 1984 also. Mach 1.5
Cindy Hunt, hoped I'd never see that name again, double dealing double crosser
This goes back to a charity (local hospice) field target shoot around 1983/4, made our Club Chairman look a right plonker in the Council Chamber where a cheque handover was supposed to take place, Hindy C had set things up behind our backs so that she handed over the cheque before us, even had AGW there to record the proceedings.
Rant over, count to 100, breath deeply.
