Satisfaction from getting an old rifle working again.

I'll have the old one off you
( We really should get that trigger blade project we spoke about up and running mate )

Yes that trigger blade project needs to be rejuvenated. Mach 1.5

Intriguing.

Nice one Paul
It's great that you are bringing a gun back to life and working nicely.
I've done a few myself recently, a bsa ultra-webley raider-and a crosman pistol (cheers ped).
I have a bsa comet(gamo made)that needs sorting and a few others that are in the pipeline.

It does have a feel good factor about it . I built a nice HW77k .22 out of bit I had aquired over the years . Shoots lovely . Decided to keep it with open sights . Very satisfying indeed .

Well not HW, (but i have one) picked up a sorry Original 52 with more rust than the titanic, even the weaver steel scope blended in.

Cocked but couldn't move a pellet out so strip polish fitted a TX200 spring with its plastic guide that dropped strait in with very little preload and a lovely shooting tool it is.

Quirky loading but quite easy with long cocking lever, bedding in but may have to reduce a coil as right on 12.
Did clean up nice, surface rust and no pitting.
Accurate? You bet and a nice soft lazy recoil with it.👍

Completely agree. So much so, I don't buy working rifles any more
