Lost in the attic

[genericAGuser]

The Winchester 52, Marlin 39 and Daystate LR90 are particularly gorgeous.

Are those the 2 lever actions in the 5th photo?

 

[JimBentley]

Yes, a side lever button. I found a .120 wire spring from an old TR Rob kit that came with my HW77 years ago. I shortened it to the same 32 coils that the original .132 wire was.

I can't wait to see what's hiding in the basement!

Sorry couldent help myself, slap my wrist if i am a bad boy.

I hope you do not have a dirt floor leaky roof storage shed out back ?

That should work. Might be a little soft. Sporting pattern can run up to 12 ft lb. The original are .134 counterwound dual springs.

I just shortened the spring another inch, was worried about the preload. Shooting around 9 ft lbs.
I will probably look fora .134 wire spring.

I think we'll need a separate thread for that one.

No
I think they did that (edit: meaning twin springs) on all the 45 (.22) inch guns until the 1930's T series but you won't see very many if any. Not many BSA air guns made in the 30's

There is nothing wrong with collecting and storing things away

But you should enjoy a bit

Could always tell you had talent and experience from reading your posts. Now I see it!
Beautiful shop. That can make almost any dream a reality.
Have fun.

Thanks again, guys. Another set of springs from a 1920 BSA . Flat wire and BSA with a Pylarm stamp. Like on the pellet tin

And some buggered screws restored to good condition

 

[KWK]

Repairing a buggered screw. You can actually peen the metal back to shape by tapping VERY lightly and carefully. Then file lightly and polish. Cold blued

 

[KWK]

Cleaned the old stock and gave a fresh coat of oil. Maintenance
