I’ve got bad knees so I have to eliminate as much walking as possible. Targets are a limp away, so any knock downs especially these have to manually be set up. Not into that. I went through my drawers and found these springs, 14 in all. After a few adjustment, grinding and cleaning. Next I...

Before Christmas I paid for a HW30 Stainless .22, HW95 Walnut stainless .177, HW97 kt Walnut .20 and a pellet pouch. Just got a call from AoA they are lost. One was on order for 6 months. Someone scored a few nice rifles. Have to wait to end of week to hear from shipper after form is received...

Today I spent about 3 hours on the range. I usually shoot 4 different rifles daily. Was out before 10 this morning. Temp 25F. but the sun was so warm I was overdressed. First rifle was a Diana K98 .22 cal. and since I shot it I can’t get it out of my mind. It was impressive. The reason I bought...

I got a tag at the mail box. Things instantly turned into a F1 race and I’m in my side by side with about a mile of iced road. Jumped into car and 3 miles of icey roads then good highway. I flew. Last week I saw this rifle on Gun Post and couldn’t jump any faster. A FWB 127 sport .22 cal...

A few weeks ago SpiralGroove did a post on his gun rack. I expressed I may have to convert my racks to vertical storage. Beertheif mentioned a rack with wheels. Don’t know if being serious or sarcastic, it set off a fire storm. I had a hockey stick rack that was in my store and I converted it to...

Ok, ok, the HW50 72 is ready to go. I’m just not able to screw that bloody trigger housing back on. I ordered a part. Wrapped it up in rags and placed on floor and come back another day. So what do I do, I tear another HW50 apart, a 68. This one the 3 is backwards on both stamps. I noticed the...

This is one of my newest old rifles, a HW50 I believe from 1972. I was shooting it and it was making noises that were alien when jacking. I took apart last night. First rifle I was able to just twist off the trigger housing without pounding it. Felt like Sampson. I read a post where Mycapt said...

I got a call from AOA today. The salesman told me my HW30 stainless is in. I have 2 others on order, but they didn’t arrive. I paid for the 30 and asked to hold till another comes in. He said it will at least be a month. I said I would check what else they had but I think I have most the models...

I don’t know why, but I scored another Webley/Scott. A buddy out West tipped me off on another one. These guns are infectious. I’m amazed the condition of this honey. Couldn’t of had a lot of use. Until now. The gentleman I bought it from I’ve talked on the horn a few times. He’s into...

Just received this beauty. A BSA Scorpion .22 cal. Don’t know the age but she’s in great shape. Had to read the manual to jack it. Needs a new breach seal but still shoots great. Crow

Lob is not the word for it. My HW77 .25 does just that. Put it through the crony. Hmmmm. Shooting a Hates. Time for a look. And this is what I find after I open it up. Amazing the accuracy with a broken spring. The piston seal looked fine but got a Vortek any way. Normally so far I’ve only...

I took 2 sets of rifles HW30 and HW50 in both .20 cal. and .22 cal. All four rifles were never opened.I also used the same grain rounds both new tins, 15.89’s. I didn’t have a ton of time so each rifle was only average of 5 rounds. ‘First up HW30 .22 cal. Average 451 fps. This gun is super...

Last week I scored a HW45 Silver Star .177. Couldn’t say no. Today I drive to get yesterday’s mail and this poor baby got cold in the mail box all night. Our nights are slipping into the high 30’s, brrrr. Love these guns. This one gave me the third calibre. These guns are a treat to shoot. Well...

The other Webley I bought last week arrived at the Post Office today. This one is a Senior.And she’s looking really good for her age. Saying that, I have no idea how old it is. A little more to jack this one compared to the Jr. The arm extends farther. I sweat someone left this one in their...

A few days ago I scoped out this pistol. Bought this old Webley Scott Jr. .177 cal. A little beat up, actually a lot beat up. Good starter. Bought another same day different seller, waiting for delivery. It needs a seal somewhere. Definitely going to be a cool project. Anyone know where there...

Today I decided to scoot into town today because of the rain. I did manage to stop in AGS. Scored a tin of non lead in .177, .22 and .25. Never tried before. Also got 10 tins JSB 8.44 and an Element scope for a future rifle. On the way home I phoned the post office to see if they had a package...

How do I say this? I’m still in disbelief. I haven’t been shooting much, been preoccupied since early June finishing up on some serious landscaping. Working feverishly on it daily. Planted approximately 80 trees all together. Friday I get a card in mail box to go to Post Office to pick up a...

My power went out today in my area. Didn’t even notice it went out, my generator kicks in automatic ally. I go out one of my exits and there’s a hydro guy there. I go pick a load of soil and on way back the hydro guy stops me. “You hydro is on“ I didn’t know it was off. He said he had to reset...

Last week I stopped in the air gun shop as usual and scored a scope for a rifle on order. I see this big box by the door, but go home with my scope and rings. While working on my project all week I’m thinking about that box. In it a shooting table. This week I go there and the box is mine. A...

When it rains ,it pours. Haven’t seen many tree rats lately but today they came in forces. Battle stations. Out comes the HW98 .177. 5 shots and 5 invaders eliminated. Two did a dance. Had these pests inside my house before, that’s why I got into Springers. Crow
