  1. I have just picked up a lanber field gun,it has auto safety which i want to remove as i will mainly be iusing fo clays,can i find a socket to fit,tried everything from 5 mill upwards,its only a small bolt but its go me beat,any info would be greatly appriciated.

  2. Bought myself a as new hw95 i have had two before one in 177 and a .22,but moved them on when i went down the pcp route,i forgot how good they are to shoot,i can put five pellets in the same hole at 25 yards,its soft to shoot and really quiet,this one is a keeper i never really liked pcp as much as i thought i would,i have a reximex accura,in 177 which will do me and a bsa murcury in .22 which sees the light of day now then,i have fallen in love with springers again long may it reign.

    The cold weather drops the tyre pressures and triggers the system. Whatever set of pressures you want, (just leave it on comfort, 33 all round) stick an extra 2psi in, so 35psi for comfort.

    You need to check what the system is set to monitor, you can change between eco, comfort or laden. It can be difficult to access the dash menu with the TPMS triggered so first get the light out.

    This bit is not in the drivers handbook.

    With the engine running, pump each tyre up to 40psi and then back down to 35.

    This should put the light out, but you absolutely have to do it with the engine running.

    Now this bit is in the drivers handbook.

    On the dash you have a button on the top right of the instrument panel, press this button repeatedly until the dash display shows "Range", then press and hold it until the menu is displayed, now twist the button to scroll through the menu until you get to TPMS, press the button to select, then it will show "tyre pressures" and "mode", twist to select mode then press again.

    In "mode" it will have comfort, eco and laden, it should be on comfort, if not twist to select and press to confirm, if it is, just press to confirm.

    If you then twist the button you can scroll through the menu until you get to "back" press to select and it will take you back to the original dash display.

    I work at a Suzuki dealer and we must get at least half a dozen calls a day with people saying they have the TPMS light on.

    Its gone off now,done what you said,cheers got to do it for my brother now,he has a18 reg vitara.

    You could give him a call tomorrow and say you will be in next Friday. Tell him you will  be leaving with either your gun , a refund or a replacement  gun of your choice .that gives him a week to get it sorted .and be firm .

     

    yes i agree,that sounds resonable responce,i will ring him later for an up date,thanks for the advice.

    Hello, they must have a lot of returns , I would get your money back if possible, or if RFD is willing to refund against another rifle, try that, who's the RFD ?

    I am going to give it till next week,if no show then yes will demand a refund,he told me when i dropped it of that it could be six weeks,it was only when i left the shop that i thought wow six weeks.

  6. I bought a reximex pcp in april this year,all seemed fine at first then it refused to cock the bolt,i took it back to the shop in september who said it will go back to rangeright,its six weeks today and no sign of it being sorted yet,what would be a resonable time to sort it out,its put me off to be honest buying another one,i have had two krals without a problem,anyone had similar issues with these guns.

    I actually have one for clays the blue receiver I like 

    I shoot quite well with mine,apart from the blue action its a great gun,had a go with the new excel grey yesterday,it felt the same as mine ,the bolt release was good tho,think i may have briely bolt release fitted a mate has one on his a400 and its a lot better then that little button.

  8. Myself and a couple mates went there about three months ago,half the the stands we had broken clays coming out,and three of the stands were shut,something to do with the wind blowing the wrong way and the noise factor,at 30 quid for a hundred birds we didnt think it was value for money,we shoot at catton hall on a wednesday and pay 25 quid for 100 birds,a far better ground by far,you could do it in under the hour.Would we go to fauxdegla again,no chance.

  9. My wifes best friend has a boarder collie called jake,a few days ago they took him out for his walk ,and like many times before they threw a stick for him,he ran after the stick and it whent down his throat and pierced his heart,a sad day,for all the people out there that throw sticks for their dogs,please think again,its been a hard lesson for are friends.

    I had a new one in the 80's, An aweful thing. Hated it, so inaccurate  at 20 yds with every pellet I tried.

    I found the one i have to be the same,cut the spring down a delron spring guide and its shooting great now,bsa barrels are well made and with a bit of fettling can be really accurate.

    Really nice mate, you have done a fine job,i take it they shoot as good as they look.

  12. I have an bsa mercury from around 1980,its sat in a cupboard for year or so,i took it out last month and gave it a go at a friends,he lives on a old farm,what a pile of junk it kicked lake horse and and accuracy was pretty bad to be fair,i have a pcp in 177 so back in the cupboard it went with the intention of one day taking it apart and seeing if i can improve things,anyway the weather was a decider,time on my hands took it into the shed stripped it down ,it had a new seal a while ago so a good clean and seached my bag of spare springs found one a tad shorter then the one i took out,it went in ok but would not cock properly,so took it apart again,when compared the old spring the coils were slightly thicker,time to get the grinder out took two coils off ,cleaned up the end,back together,its doing eight and half foot pounds now,at twenty yards using marksman pellets i can put half inch groups in paper targets,four ten cartridge cases no problem,the recoil is reduced as well and its a joy to shoot now,still like my pcp tho.

  13. Well the time has finally come after twenty plus years,the sky tv has to go,give it till after xmas then ring them to cancel my contract,its a waste of money i pay 75 quid a month for the internet and sky tv,my son has put a app on the fire stick called cinema,its got every thing on it we watch on sky and its free so really its a no brainer,will pay for a better internet as the package we have at the moment is not the best,if it dos,nt work out we can always go back to sky,but at the moment the quality has been sadly lacking so time to go.

  14. When Lee Rigby was murdered by a black man ,did we we see a responce like we have now,no we did not,all lives matter,its just an excuse to defy authority and have a bash at the police,it will achieve sod all to benifit that poor man who was killed in the usa.
