Can't shave down Hatsan Flash hammer

[UCChris]

Nice! You cant get anything for the Evanix guns now. and even if you could, the shipping is unreal!


good to know the hammer is so low cost. Now I can afford to screw up!


LOL!!! Just kidd'n I'll treat it like it was gold. 


Knife

Lol. Have at it!

Following to keep up with Knife's progress on modifying the flash hammer for UCChris. I might send him my 25 cal hammer if it turn out good.

Excited to see photos of progress!

I guess I got lucky with the hammer in mine that showed up yesterday, but I'll certainly take it.  The machining on this gun is better than that of my .177 Flash for sure!


I'm sure Mr. Knife will get that hammer cleaned up real nice on yours though

[UCChris]

Wow Donny! That is light years ahead of my hammer!

[Rallyshark]

It is better than the hammer in my regular Flash as well.  I guess this gun got made in the middle of the week,lol.

[KnifeMaker]

Man, that is hugely better Donny! I it also a Flash hammer?

I'm heading out to the shop to get started on it after talking to Chris on the phone. High hopes for it!


I work late at night. Cooler in the summer Texas heat, and no interruptions even now with this cold wave that blew in. GRRRR+Brrrrr!!!


Being a Central Texan, I hate anything under 72 deg.

Mike is an amazing guy! We was extremely fun to talk shop with! I'm so excited to see what he can do!

I agree and dislike anything above 80 degrees or below 60 myself. My problem is I have a hard time breathing when working above 80 and cant move fast enough to stay warm below 60. Oh well at least I am still above ground.

I am eagerly anticipating your redo of Chris's hammer to see the ugly duckling turned into a swan.

You must still have plenty of antifreeze in your blood so its nice and thick to slow the heat loss.   Us old geezers got no antifreeze left so our blood is like water and sheds heat faster than we can make it. LOL

Man, that is hugely better Donny! I it also a Flash hammer?


Knife

Surprisingly, yes it is a Flash hammer!  It is straight out of a new gun.  I didn't expect this gun to be machined as well as it is.  It is night and day difference with my regular Flash on all parts.  This new one is going to require a lot less effort to get all the bits moving freely inside  

[UCChris]

Mike, here's the pics showing that rear hammer latch on the cocking lug.



Hope the wind didn't blow you away last night!

[KnifeMaker]

Chris, your package came marked Archery. Are you involved with an Archery Shop? I part owned one for years in Killeen Texas. X-it archery. Good times! But I still miss making the Knives the most.


I am sending you an email in PM, I'll send pic's of what I use to do.


Here a few really lousy pic's of your hammer. Hope you can take better pic's than mine! 

[KnifeMaker]

No pic came thru on the latch Chris. Got her lighter than expected. very easy to add weight now. She is 51 grams. So MUCH better than we expected.


I will include button material for the firth system. They wear after a few thousand rounds I guess. mine never have so far. Many thousands of shots at high fpe.


I subbed the Peek with Delrin, the harder Delrin type for bearings. It will be quieter than the peek as it is a little softer and quieter. And you said you wanted  QUIET!!!  Did I just yell Quiet?
 I can seen more any time. Mine has the Peek, but I shoot at 80-90+ fpe with it. And you can sure still hear the hammer slap.


Enjoyed working on it. Started at midnight aad finished at 11. am. Good to be in the Shop!

Maybe these pics will go through?





That hammer looks amazing! Holy &^^&!

[KnifeMaker]

It kinda looks a little different. LOL! It should really save wear and tear on the channel it rides in.

[Rallyshark]

Wow Mike, that looks awesome!
