Ha ha. Wow. Good eye. Pledge on it for first time. And I used to be a professional cleaner. Take care. CrowCrow that is the most cleanest,organised table I’ve ever seen in any of your pics. Did your missus clean up while you were scuba diving.

Nothing today. I had my eyes checked, and of course they dilated them, so avoiding bright light.

When you say a new spring is that a 12 fpe spring , so it's easier to manage the shots , and cocking effort.
On the cork breech seal did you find a replacement. Being as it's cork maybe a piece of plastic tubing cut off to the perfect size would work. I mean that has got to be more durable than wine stopper.OV.

That's because it's Arkansas. I bailed out of that dung heap 2 years ago. I guess need to update my profile here.
In all fairness upstate NY is just as beautiful and it's full of good people. There's good people in downstate NY too but they're too outnumbered by trash to matter.
Be well

Close. The R9 = HW95. R7 = HW30. All excellent rifles.
Don’t know him. There was a gentleman on another forum I believe “Old Gringo”. His trusty HW30 was his saviour. Slowly he sold his bigger guns but the 30 lasted to the end. Bless his soul. That planted a seed in me.
I have several 30’s - R9’s and different springs by 3 manufacturers to mix them up. Incredible rifle. Crow
I do have 12 FPE springs. I believe the after market springs are much better than stock. I have at least 35 spring sets to install. Also have Vortek piston seals for all. Don’t know how to get rid of the line.

I got the leather one. But found that it relaxed to the point where I scuffed the finish off bottom of stock. from the Aluminum.
Sometimes I cover with material. Crow
Which is better?

Order the slippery cloth one it lets the gun recoil on its own , i find it improves accuracy with my guns mostly with the springers
shoulder and one hand trigger grip , no front hand

Here's a FWB300 from 1970-71. These were made 1969-72, total around 50,000, this one had a double spring which I thought was only used in the 300S? Original, little used gun, had a crumbled breech seal with a pretty good piston buffer: maybe the breech seal ages out before the buffer?
As with all the 10 meter airguns, more accurate than me...

Had the urge to shoot this big filthy beast tonight. Glad I did. Standing about 20 yards shooting spinners and Cooper the Squirrel. You can see the steel wince.
