I'm Sat Waiting On Postman Pat

[T 20]

To be fair Mick there’s not much you haven’t got

I must admit there's still a couple on my wish list, Paul.

I wouldn't mind a Pro Elite and a HR93 in the collection, but I'm not that fussed if I don't get either.

[Murphy]

Go and have a shit.

Pretty much guaranteed he will come as soon as you sit.

[T 20]

Hurray, it's here --- I'll catch you all later, I'm off to play.

[TonyL]

I'm guessing HW55 or a Webley Vulcan?

I already have 2 Vulcans, Tone, but well done :-

Ah, look at that little beauty.

What are your plans for this little masterpiece, Mick?

[T 20]

Ah, look at that little beauty.

What are your plans for this little masterpiece, Mick?

I'm just looking at long stroking it by machining up a completely new piston using a TX seal and bearing, Tone --- I'll scope her up with a little 6x32 for a bit of informal garden target work.

I just need to find my 20mm drill bits in order to start on the piston.




All the best Mick

[TonyL]

Lovely.

What's the stroke as standard, Mick? And what are you hoping to stretch it out to?

So, thinking back to your AA diopter sight thread and Scott's contribution, will you be on for some Mini-Sniping, Mick?

Hi Mick

I'm always keen to see what you turn your hand to air gun wise and anything else come to think of it.

Have you dabbled with the Hw55 or does it remain as you received it ?

All the best

Hi John.

Your old HW55 is waiting in the wings at present, just as she arrived and I may just keep her as Herman intended.
Having said that I may have a little play with her by fitting the 69.5mm stroke piston that I made for my bitsa HW50 to compare the firing cycles.

Hi Mick

The 55 was intended in a round about sort of way for my daughter but I won't tell her I sold it if you don't

I too had thought's of fitting a Hw50 piston to the 55 but didn't want to over stress an old classic and as luck had it, I managed to cobble together a Mk1 Hw50 with the help of a very good chap on this forum, so one of the Hw's had to go.

I've had both .177 & .22 Mk1 50's over 11 fpe with the standard piston stroke, hence why I am so keen to see how yours fairs with an extended piston stroke.

All the best

John

[Longbowlarry]

Hw80 I'd say

If i ever come to a bash i will bring my elite and rh93 for you to play with. Rh93 is in a nice factory thumbhole stock to
