Nice to be niceHi spinach
No problem I don't mean to come across arrogant.
I make my own slugs as I found fx slugs didn't cut the mustard.
It took me a while to find what worked in my rifles at sub 12ft lbs. Even though people said dont bother they won't group or flatten at that speed.
But I perciveerd and got there .
I rarely use pellets now as it costs me about £1 .50 to make myself 500 slugs that are superbly accurate and grain for grain identical.
I liked the look of the kral np03 but the barrel didn't like slugs hence the swap too the lw which fixed the problem.
Every man to his own is my motto as long as you enjoy shooting that's the main thing spinach.
It's good people have their input and views as life would be dull if we didn't
Some pics of my diy slugs
Nice to speak to you spinach and thank you for your input"and enjoy your guns bud

.No arrogance seen, nice slugs.
I'd like to test some. Happy to pay. UK delivery. My missus is in the UK next month.
Often my posts in English are misunderstood, sometimes abrupt, simply because I don't use English day to day. That's life and communication.
Keeping on topic, I have a couple of kral arms barrels that shoot slugs well. 1:16 twist. .22 though.
Plenty of guys are having decent results with slugs and kral barrels.
A Turkish guy was preparing a kral .177 barrel for me. Poor soul got hammered by the earthquake. More important he gets sorted than my hobby testing.
Enjoy the journey.

Mine definitely didn't like them but I know some krals do.
Another reason I changed my barrel was to put a bigger cylinder off the puncher as the shot count was not great
Let me know when your wife over by leaving me a message spinach and I will make you some slugs up and post them free of charge / so it will cost you nothing at all.
I will just need to know where too send them bud hows that.
Actually I've been wanting someone other than me to test them out' so I'd welcome your feedback spinach" you never know if you like them and they work for you it wont cost you a fortune anymore.
And coming from somebody who clearly knows his airguns is even better for me

Hi I see that we are both in the UK. Can you tell me who makes the Biathlon Lever and how it is attached to the side lever. Somebody makes them on ebay but they dont look the best and i have been unable to source one I have been looking since you put up the post. I am also on the Airgunforums Forum.

Hi pete
My brother did mine for me at his factory machine shop.
Basically he machined a peice of steel rod and tig welded it to the lever.
If you know someone who wields or a machine shop by you" you can do it.
It wouldn't cost that much.
The ones on ebay are 3d printed I think
I have printed them myself and they ain't much cop to be honest.
I know you gun inside out and the lever is on the opposite side to mine and cocking the bloody thing is awkward due to it being to close to the mag.
The biathlon lever makes a massive difference on your gun bud believe me.
If you get stuck pete let me know and I will help you out no problem whatsoever along as your willing to send me your lever for a day or 2
I will get it done for you .
I was at whiteacres in march bugger

The NP02 is built on Krals left handed “pistol” action. If you do a biathlon lever you will have to modify it to be lefty, I bought mine from a tuner in the states.
I also reduced the LOP on mine. I just put a smaller bottle on and trimmed my stock down. Only complaint I have is how hard it is to get to the hammer spring. The bottle has to be completely removed, and it’s held on by the longest winded screws of all my guns.
Great little guns, hope you enjoy yours as much as we have ours.

Hi Pete
Of course you can.
My brother made me about 6 different types " so I have 4 left over.
It take one of his lads 2mins to tig it on
You can buy them but they are few and far between" that's why I got my brother. To do mine I got tired of looking.
It's no problem to me honestly i will always help out anybody if I'm able to bud.
Bagnall Kirkwood advertise them but never in stock.
I try get my pal to send me a pic of his np02 that was done
But i leave it with you pete it's your gun at the end of the day.

Well your generosity is amazing. At present a relative is trying to extract a decent trigger out of mine he recons there is one in there. When it comes back inside a week hopefuly, I will send you the cocking arm. So very nice of you.

I've spoke to my pal hopefully his daughter will send me a picture he is 90 years old bless him
Dont laugh he can shoot with the best of them
I can show you what it looks like then and you can see for yourself bud
Honestly it's no problem to me pete I will help out a fellow shooter anyday.
My pal has been shooting airguns for along long time "he liked the np02 but not the lever and the twang and trigger
I sorted it all for him now he said it's the best gun he's ever had and he has had some nice rifles and pistols.
He will take the goolies of a nat at 30 yrds with a red dot lol
You will notice the difference straight away as you can leave the gun at your shoulder without having to faff about trying to get you finger tip under the lever
As soon as I get pics i will nput them up for you

My Nephew yesterday tuned the trigger on my NP02. I am going to test it in half an hour to try it out at 20 yards rested. I still have not found the pellet for this gun yet. It has just been a case of sorting the choke and the trigger and other bits and bobs. My Nephew says it was a horrible trigger. Its not now i think.

Your still a baby lol
Glad your guns coming together
Me pal sent pics to someone else at 6 oclock this morning lol" he going to get daughter to send them today again.
Yes the s200 was my old pals gun he had it from new and he shot the life out of it he even wore the magazine carrier out lol
I've replaced every part including the trigger Sears except the barrel
It's taken me a while to get it shooting right power wise" the only way to describe it is turning a 1 litre mini into a 2 litre capri.
Original tube was 40 shots so not great with a 200cc bottle unregged between 130-140 sub 12ftlbs I dont know how many regulated yet I'm still testing "but its within 10fps between shots.
But it is so quiet "probably the quietest gun I've ever shot and very accurate
I've had alot of people asking about it as its like chickens teeth.
I shall get it into a tactical stock eventually as I think it will suit it.
