Finished! Thanks Tony for the link to AVA forum.. I did the 'tune' myself. New seals although Maccari lo longer carries the replacement spring. I did check other places that have springs. However the new unit comes only with a tune job.... The 150 was shot very little from what I could tell. The OEM...

So.. after the Annie 250 experience I looked around and picked up a very fine Steyr LG-1/10 for shooting. From the same fella I purchased a FWB 150. The action is really clean but the stock is fractured over the grip. Looks like it was dropped during shipping. No worries though.. I can fix/repair th...

The 250 went back home. I was sad as I said.. but time and tide... So.. I landed this from GunBroker... Steyr LG-1!! It was a bit of a pinch but hey.. NO scuba tanks!!!

The whole purpose of getting a rifle in the first place was to shoot it! I am not a collector but rather a user. Lots to think about... Indeed. And no, I am not h...

Yeah I can see that if the dampener is bad then that hole would tear out because of the re-coil action. I ask.. looking at the photos above, does the small gap between the e...

Greetings, My first post here and my apologies for asking questions that may well have been answered. I looked through some (alot) of the vast archive.. so you all know... I really tried to find the answer before posting. I just purchased an in very good condition 250 model. It looks to be little us...
