Hi

Does anyone know who repairs Apache air pistols? My Apache needs resealing. I have other odd-ball airguns that need re-sealing such as a FB Jumbo Record air pistol, a few different Healthways. A Healthways MX175 BB repeater rifle that needs re-sealing. Another Healthways 9405 fails to feed, a Healthways "Shorty" 9404 fail to feed, Healthways Western reseal needed.

Any advice will be much appreciated, I do not have the skillset required to repair these vintage airguns. It is a challenge to keep these older
airguns in good shooting condition.

Thank you

Randy

old guns have two things that work against them
PARTS
AND SKILLED LABOR THAT CAN FIX THEM WITHOUT PARTS
Protek in the UK has the oval leather seal piston seal, the company is first rate and there prices and shipping are fair

a smith might be happy to help if you as the owner has done his best to help
but the smith will never take on a project only to have the gun or guns become basket cases because I DON'T WORK ON THEM is easier to say i can't fix it after receiving the project
and sometimes value has to be considered

Thanks I did not know that Jimmie Dees does repairs. Phil over at Protek was kind enough to supply the FB Record Jumbo seals. My experience was shipping airguns to or from the UK is expensive, with the red tape is endless. Maybe I just had the worst Customs Agent in the UK. Have you shipped airguns to UK for repair?

Hi Nibs

You are the Best!
Pls email me your snail mail home address and I'll send you shipping funds . Which 25 is working the older one with the straight grip buttstock? I have quite a few extra airguns (AGs) so please tell me if there is something you are looking to obtain? Please ring me in the evening.

Kindest Regards,

Randy
