GAMO spectra and bsa info ?

Post by LoneRider »

gday all,i got a mates gamo spectra .177 here,hes busted the polymer stock in half right at the rear of the trigger guard.he has araldited it but wants me to make the join stronger.any ideas ??

the bsa .177 wooden stock- same guy - wont lock into the trigger.i pulled it down to check out why it wont only to find the plunger barrel comming out without the plunger cup[?] is this a 2 piece deal or is this not supposed to happen ? when i get this part figured out i will move onto the trigger problem.

Mate
your in QLD

You have the AG master in your state- WHY, Why, WHY did you open the can worms yourself

Smart $$ thing I can recommend is go and see Lewis and let him do his magic

P.S. About the stock repair- there is a post here by Con and Joe about their ACC-REL (sp?) builds they did/are doing- PAz did one as well I think.
but the topic might have only been posted on AHN

There was some pics posted about how they drilled the stocks becwards down from the rear mounting screw area and re-enforced them with rods through the handgrip area.
I think they used all thread rod so the epoxy would hold better- a bit of a search might turn up the pictures still

its just a break action pop gun,not rocket science. :roll:
anyhow,fixed the bsa meteor.
the stock on the gamo seems ok but if he looks after it,it wont come apart for a while.if it does,then i will look at a pin job.

areldite is not strong enough... it softens in the sun, and you butt will fall off!

you will have to drill holes and embed a rod or tube with some proper epoxy as glue.
