I PM'd him earlier in the week (on the BBS forum) and being as I work in Surrey he suggested that I drop it off to avoid postage costs and hassle so I arranged to call round this morning.
When I arrived he asked if I was in a hurry, as if I wasnt I was more than welcome to watch him at work. Despite being on my way to a meeting I decided to make the time as this was an opportunity I wasnt going to miss.
Lawrie dismantled the pistol explaining the function of each part and common problems. I was particularly fascinated to watch him fabricate seals to a precise fit.
He then checked that everything worked OK using a variety of pellets.
All for £30!
Afterwards he showed me a 600 he had converted into a rifle - he even apologised for not having the time to show me some of his other unusual and rare pistols!
What a gent!
(Wish Id taken my camera!)
