Hi I have a Record Jumbo in need of a few parts and refinishing, the main part being the piston seal / top hat or in German kolbenmanschette. Does anyone know to any parts? I definitely need one of the 5mm screws that hold the close cap in place. As for refinishing what would be best chemical gun blue? spray paint (two pack satin)? Any and all ideas would be appreciated, It's a good little pistol that needs help and deserves it, not powerful but accurate and fun to plink the cans with. Many thanks Russ

Whilst i'm not sure of current stock levels I do know that a few years ago Drapers Airguns of Nottingham bought a load of jumbo spares, so it might be worth a try just google for their website, not sure about refinishing so can't help there, and welcome to the website, M. :)

Hi thanks have just phoned them but they sold and run out of all the stock they had spares and pistols, have tried Chambers but no luck :( think I will try and make the piston seal in good old leather! The screw I will be able to make on my lathe. Will keep looking for the correct seal but will as said try leather. Thanks Russ :D
