Cheers for the advise guys but the gunsmiths I've encountered locally have been quick fix merchants and I have come to the conclusion if you want the job done properly is to do it yourself I'm a mechanical engineer so not completely behind the door , once the action is out of the stock and sidelocks off the problem is right infront of you , my problem is locating the part ,I've emailed aya to see if they do a parts service ..

Stripped the gun last night very simple in fact , problem is the main top lever shaft where it meshes with the bite bar at the underside of the action is worn where it rests against the body in the centre position if this makes sense , so will locate one of theses if I can , in reply to other questions there's no play in the main hinge and is tight on its face

Get a size bigger than you are in meindl they are small fittings in my experience

My pals got a falconry electronics receiver and pistol grip yagi with magnetic on off transmitter I'll see if he wants to sell he's not had a bird for 18 months

Any suggestions I'm around southyorkshire cheers

Yes gunman I took it to a gun smith my options were knock the bites on the barrel up £20 or strip the gun weld up the bite bar reshape for a better lantern option but was £150 so was going to do it myself ..

Cheers figgy I've searched allover but can't find any bumf on the bit I need , sidelocks are easy to remove and clean just don't take em apart ..

Was wanting to remove the main bite bar in order to build up faces to rectify cocking lever over to left of centre , just wondered how to remove

Anyone have a strip down drawing please

Anyone noticed an idle back chair base is a straight ripoff off a laser level or theodolite tripod , I saw one face to face the other day and even the swivel it is bang same allso are the feet , I always thought he'd designed it from scratch..

Still looking what have you cash waiting cheers

Was tempted myself with a zebra burger untill my mrs reminded me it'll taste like horse which we've probably all had before wit or without knowing it lol

Thanks a lot guys info is really helpfull.

My pigeon season has ended for the moment so going to buy a night vision for my air rifle and shoot the golf course I have at night my dilemma is new or second hand I have £450 ish to spend any recommendations not a nitesite though either add on or scope not fussed.

Martin it was just past Flouch roundabout on start of holmfirth road

My pals just phoned and said 5 vans full of anti blood sport protesters has just turned up to there grouse shoot near holmfirth spoilt the day anyone know anymore about it ?

I shoot an aya no2 it's the only thing I can shoot allways looks the part on any size shoot at 4k it should be new..I paid £700 for mine had the barrels done off barrel browner and the stock re oiled it looks 10k and I've got £900 in it wouldn't have anything else.. Sold my uo and semi is up for sale..

Cheers all I'm just waiting on the pics to be mailed to me I'll let you know the outcome

Any one own or know anything about these guns reason being I own a no2 at the moment and was in the market for a newer one and have been offered a 53, are they better or worse than the no2 ...

If your barrells are brazed then normal bluing is ok , £80 was cheapest quote I had for my beretta , if you phone Manchester airguns they will give you the number of a guy called Collin who does this for a living ..on the other hand if there soldered together the price doubles as I found with my aya they had to be rust blacked using a different method , hope this helps nothing's ever straight forward..

Don't do it mate it looks a mess and wears off quickly , cold blue is a no no imho , it costs about £80 from opposite Manchester airguns proper pot blueing it will look like new ..

Theft is your main worry I had one for 12 months , couldn't or daren't park it anywhere scumbags tried numerous times to steel it spare wheel went , the cons way out weigh the pros not to mention the shocking drive and noise on motorway , I bought new navara and can't fault it all your muddy boots and tackle stays seperate to the front lovely on motorway what else can I say but don't ..

The engine is a ford transit engine which have lots of egr valve problems just make sure it's smooth on tickover , hpi it , drivers rubber mat wears straight through after 20k unless it's had mats in , clutches are allso a trouble but hard to diagnose condition , they seem to be there one minute and gone the next hope this helps

Got a pristine a400 xplor action with kickoff and pod £1100
