I had neither the time or the inclination to visit the factory, but luckily Wes Hann went on my behalf and sorted it all. As for the factory finish, well its rather nice, but I will probably have it stripped at some point, then I can spend countless hours oiling it! Pmsl.
Yes John, it has the dreaded v springs! I'm told that they are more robust these days, my last mx8 used to eat them at a furious rate! Didn't have spring probs with my previous gun, mx2005, it had coils.
I have not had my gun long enough to know if it goes through them at a furious rate Les. I bought the gun secondhand and put about 10k through her before one popped ... but I don't know how many they had done before I got it. The way I see it there is an easy way of avoiding a problem that does not involve a spare trigger. I have a spare set of springs and what I do is fit them before a competition and then back again after the comp. So my comp set have never anymore than say a thousand a year and they are good for way more than that. If I break a practice set spring I will fit the comp set and get another new set which will become my comp set... I'll let you know in ten years how that works out

one thing that can be said about colour case hardening is that you wont ever get two guns the same, making your gun completely unique, which when you are having one built for you is a massive bonus :wink:
that was a joke, son
How often do you have your actions re varnished then Charlie?
Agreed! ?
I believe they will make it in skeet and skeet if required Wes! ?Really lovely Les, you must have searched high and low to get one where the stock key matches the wood too. Do they do one in skeet ? Cos I know this Guy...............................................................
