The tune is beneficial to reduce the cocking effort/noise as well as damp the spring twang and buzz completely. There's also benefit in fitting a better fitting spring guide and tightening the spring fit inside the piston. This ensures that the spring is compressed in a straight line rather than kinking sideways slightly. It should help extend the spring's lifespan.derrick38https://www.blogger.com/profile/07453249070532046877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378835029459742413.post-64212287244329988942010-02-03T23:41:59.907-08:002010-02-03T23:41:59.907-08:00Hello from The UK.

I really enjoyed your HW35E strip down and so much so I scoured the net and airgun shops until i found an identical age and condition HW35E here in the UK. I owned an old HW35e as a teenager bought from a boot fair in 1988 and this got lost in the realms of time at some point. I wanted a .177 but couldnt pass on the one I found which is .22, It also has a 22" barrel which i'm told is quite rare. The rifle is very consistant power wise and shoots 590 ft/sec pretty much every shot. I dont think the rifle has seen much use and probably has sat in a cupboard for 30 years. My only gripe with this rifle is that it kicks like a <br />mule.. would a strip down and tune up like the one you carried out lessen the recoil? Theres no twang or rattle as such it just fires like a cannon at the moment. my profession is more electronic than mechanical best regards DaveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378835029459742413.post-6819816241911248792010-02-02T12:16:22.566-08:002010-02-02T12:16:22.566-08:00SL,

Gotta be from the heavy piston. <br /><br />Besides the airguns, I get to play with all kinds of carbon fiber aluminum and titanium bikes and all the hydraulic brakes, forks...There's worse jobs.derrick38https://www.blogger.com/profile/07453249070532046877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2378835029459742413.post-61244372680986038342010-02-01T17:58:53.354-08:002010-02-01T17:58:53.354-08:00Derrick

If it was harsh at 750, it would seem like 81X would be harsher, but then you did other things.<br /><br />What kind of cool stuff do you get to work on, besides this cool stuff?<br /><br />Your comment on the permatex reminded me that I have a titanium seatpost that is probably permanently welded via electrolysis to my IF deluxe frame. Oh well.Slinging Leadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04394959629225488169noreply@blogger.com
