- Thread starter A.G.R
- Start date
4 prototype build from ground up ,meaning my own design using Rekord triggers andJust how many projects do you have going? Some good looking work
custom stroked and custom built pistons as well as new stock design
Cold winter as you have felt. I set up design and prototype in my spare room. A LOT GOT ACCOMPLISHED
.
Someone said you should be making $ doing this .. I TOLD THEM 1% of the people in the world of Airgun ing have done what I have with springers. I told him the word NICHE. IS VALID
ITS NOT BRAGGING. .. I have the actual hard proof.

Am I allowed more than one question? 
Side latch AND latch rod pistons?
Buttons and bushings eliminate the need to heat treat the skirt?
Interesting cocking slot with Air Arms shoe?
Bronze or naval brass bushings?
Milling the piston slots with a 2 flute (slot drill)?

All pistons are made of 4140 or 4130,4350. Chrome Molly. FOR LATCH PISTONS. It’s tough and don’t stretch. PATRIOT PISTONS WHICH I WILL NEVER DO EVER AGAIN NOW WITH THIS NEW BUILD WITH A center latch ROD , Rekord.Trigger. They need to be nitraded. Or hardened. .
Piston rods are from Hw ,and AA , piston donations
buttons and bearings have nothing to do with heat treating…. They are for smooth operation centering things.
The AIR ARMS TYPE PISTON IS A FANTASTIC DESIGN. SAME AS IN THE Pro Elite but they used delrin rings.
Bearing bronze is used as it’s not weather temp induced to shrink like delrin.
I use center cutting 4 flute carbide end mills.
The material there cost more than a new HW80. Chrome Molly isn’t sheep. The big one is 4350 aero space metal
I snagged from my buddy’s shop where he does high end work.

Buttons and bearings also means you don’t have to heat treat the skirt to prevent galling. ?
