Is Paul Short still in business, or anybody else offer similar tuning kits for Weihrauch's ?
Tuning Paul Short tuning kits
- Thread starter Temesvar
- Start date
Paul makes custom kits second to none. Made of exotic materials. Like Titanium pistons and fully glided pistons and compression tubes. He’s in the UK , GETTING anything to the USA is tricky . Seems your in Kanada , might not be as tricky.
Im not sure he is doing drop in kits like Tinbaum. But more so custom work.

Trying to improve the HW 97. Not that it needs any improvement, but since there are options, why not? Did that with cars, motorcycles, is just a nice hobby. There are several options, most of them seem to be from GB. Like Paul Short kit, with the light piston. Finally found him on f.b. but got no response yet. Not sure the reason, maybe just because the pond between us. There are others that want you to send the gun for them to tune it. Well, that is not much fun if not doing it your self. So will try one of the more commercially available DIY kits. Thought TBT would be first to respond, nothing from them yet. Not that would be the last option, but just may go with Vortek PG4. Wish they had the bionic piston for HW. I like their product, reasonably priced and respond to email asap. Any suggestions welcome.

My question is : why is a barrel polished in sections ; as in say 20 strokes to the #1 section .20 strokes to section #1 and #2 , then sections #1,2,3 and so on . What is the purpose in the less polished sections ?

I have assumed that the reason behind staged polishing was to lessen the likelihood of producing a blunderbuss like funnel, wider at the muzzle. This way the breech is larger or the rifling more rounded than at the muzzle??

Is not something that i desperately need, so will use a more commercially available tuning kit.If someone is hard to get and hard to find there is a reason for that..

From what I read on the Brit airgun sites, even they have a hard time getting hold of him. Beautiful work though! Uj
