They aren't difficult to strip down and plenty of online stuff on improving the action and getting the power up to nearer 11ftlbs. Recommend one? A cheap one....Are they in need of threading/screw cutting or can you use a slip on mod? Edited October 20, 2020 by HDAV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 Cheap slip on, after having unscrewed the front sight. I'm assuming he will be using a telescopic sight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remimax Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 got a couple of smk 78s here that my two boys used to use when they were younger.out the box they are pants at around 7-8 ftlbs. did the usual probe porting and changed the transfer port seal also removed the felt filter. upped the power to 11.2 ftlbs and with a bit of action polishing they shoot pretty dam good for a cheap rifle the magazine add on is basic but it works. i use em round the sheds for ferals and rats,luv em cos they so light to carry.

bruno22rf Posted October 28, 2020 Report Share Posted October 28, 2020 If getting a silencer is a major problem, find one that you want and I will see if my local RFD can get one - I'm happy to buy and post it to you at cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
