Yep, nice and easy on the preload on the '50, Paul.Originally Posted by Waddy
Got the model 50 back together & still oversprung & ludicrously hard to cock, so more coils off the Titan spring it is
Considering softening the airsporter leather seal with olive oil to save having to buy a bottle of neatsfoot, as I'm a Yorkshireman & that neatsfoot is at least a tenner.
Never tried olive oil on leather seals. Hopefully okay? "Back in the day" we'd use some silicone oil, but modern thinking would be to avoid for metal-to-metal. However, if you have it and it's pressed out well, maybe okay?
P.S....Just seen the later posts and the offer from Mike with the neatsfoot. Fine offer and top plan.
