RWS  Did I damage my gun.

I can’t imagine there was no damage. Barrel is likely bent to some degree.
If the POI shifts by inches, then yes. But bending springer barrels is a well-understood situation.

I'd be more concerned with egging out the barrel pivot bolt holes, putting cracks in the pivot bolt, or denting the top face of the breech block against the top of the receiver.

Is it me???

N/A  Painting a PCP tank?

I'm absolutely afraid of the bomb that is close to my body, I've pulled stupid stunts all the time but.....paranoia of things explosive, even though in my younger years I made things go boom, age has mellowed me a touch.
I would think that adding a layer of paint and a clear coat acrylic would add more to It’s structural integrity, not less.
Do you use non-DOT certified tanks?

Karma  Figment of anyone else’s imagination??

I didn’t realize FX invented PCPs, kudos to them… Hopefully they “crush” in court “all” the competition and become the only brand standing…🙄 That will do wonders for the huge PCP market as a whole… FX is going to EFF EX themselves… Who needs choices anyway?

HW/Weihrauch  HW95K adjustable

I like the way it looks. I find high comb and adjustable comb stocks kind of counter productive on springers. The last thing I want is a solid cheek weld on a springer. It transmits vibration directly into my face and creates another pressure point to try to regulate. I see more value in adjustable butt plates.

I raise the plate on my 98 while the comb is kept low.

Tuning  How do you choke a barrel ?

Quite a few years ago there were often posts talking about choking barrels and usually someone would always mention heating the tip of the barrel cherry red and quenching. I'd like to read more about this method and what it actually takes to do right, if that's even possible, without screwing up the metal.
The question is quenching in water or oil? IMHO odds are it'll bend and you'll be spending a lot of quality time descaling it. It'd be a interesting exercise on a barrel you don't give a hoot about.

deciding between GX cs3i and cs4i

Dfp23, They did reply to my inquiry on the 11th Oct. no apology, just stated out of stock and more coming, no definite time. So, I went to the website on the 11th, where it showed out of stock for the CS4 and used a different email to request a notification for when it was in stock. I had a reply the next day saying that I could order right then and it would be in stock in a week. If true, that would be the 18th. I'll wait a bit more and see what transpires. Funny that Amazon has stock, but the manufacturer does not, and they ship from the same warehouse... o_O I'll just get out my hand pump 😬
Interesting….in interim I picked up the infamous Yong Heng until this gets sorted out. We’ll see what happens….:rolleyes:

N/A  gas rams

Bad Webley trigger :unsure: ...........I have 3 Sirocco Deluxe (with spare seals). The triggers are actually very good. I've heard they were based on the Webley Omega trigger but look, they have nothing to do with a Webley Omega trigger. They have a fake two stage with a nice crisp release. Fairly light take up spring to a wall and SNAP. I never put a gage on one. Doesn't matter. They're fine. BTW earliest Siroccos had BSA Meteor triggers. To me, my Evolution has a strange trigger. First stage too stiff and doesn't allow you to feel the second stage well before it goes off. Many people complain about the Evo triggers. The spring is wrong. Some replace them. Some bend them. Some live with it. I actually prefer the Siroccos for the trigger, cocking, and power output.
Tom at Vortek sold the HW30 ram for a short while. Then it vanished.
They are not based on Webley Omega/Patriot trigger THEY ARE BAUGHT FROM AND EXACT WITH THIER OWN trigger BLADE ,to allow the blade SAFTY to work
Can they be ok ,yes at 11 ft to 15 ft lbs. load them and they are load relevant to pull.
069A7FC2-FE1C-42D6-AD57-D6DE660A67DF.jpeg

identical ,welded cage and every sear as well as spring set up. Just different trigger blade which don’t effect the use ,it’s for the safety as with gas rams there is no rear plug safety ,like Webley guns
They did weld a lug to mount the trigger guard and to stop the action from moving.


Theobens were well thought but trigger design was a miss , I’m Working on a SLR 88 now and it’s not good and YOU CANT GET SEARS. LUCKLY ,IVE OWNED SEVERAL Patriots and have spares.
EVO is a two sear ledge pressure drop

I personally don’t collect ,I use and they are not my cup of 🍺

N/A  gas rams

Only new guns that are break barrels were Hatsan and I think they stoped making them adjustable.
Tom Gore pre Covid made a adjustable ram prototype for the R9. Tom Gaylord reviewed but it never came to market.
Then it’s old Theoben with the bad Webley triggers. … no parts available and seals are impossible to get. Not for me.

RWS  Did I damage my gun.

I was cleaning my RWS 350 and I accidentally hit the safety and touched the trigger and the barrel slammed shut. Luckily no concussion or sheared finger tips. I did shoot it after and it seemed to shoot just as hard. I need to check with my chrono. My question is even if the velocity does not change., did I do any damage to any component of the gun and how can I check for it. I realize the RWS 350 safety is not as safe as the HW and FWB 124 safeties as they require a lot of force to engage while the RWS 350 is easily moved. Thinking slamming the barrel shut is not as bad as a dry fire. Please advise.

So would we think this had the Rekord trigger even though the seller says it is an HW30?
Yep. You can see the adjustment screw just behind the trigger. Nice looking wood for a beech stocked rifle too.
