Barrel shortened to 13 inches, recrowned and silencer blended in ( 15mm silencer on 16mm barrel) by Helston Gunsmiths. Piston fitted with Delrin buttons and rear bearing (was sold this as a Dave Hall piston but cant confirm this. Tony Wall said whoever had done it had done an excellent job).

CS500 walnut sporter stock with stippling grip and square cut front end in homage to the original MK1 HW80 stock.

Thanks guys, It will indeed last me a lifetime and hopefully be used by the future generations of Goffys :lol:

The Deben bench rest was £45 if i recall and total cost of the rifle with scope and all work came in at £450 give or take a few quid so much less than youd pay for a fancy pcp :D
