My 2nd SVBONY scope made it here today, this one is heavier, solid I would compare to UTG Leapers, clicks are solid, movement seems smooth, predictable. Clear glass and recital is medium stature.

The brown Santa dropped by with a lonng box, I know what it, plus 3 other boxes WHT.

I grabbed the long box and opened the end and out slid a Dragon Fly II,
the box rattled when tipped up, Oh No, carefully open the box and found the DF II
sitting on a foam pad in the middle of the box.

Picked it up and the handle was flopping around with ONLY 1 screw on each side, and a 3/16" dia tube with a screw in one end and nothing on the other end but a threaded hole.
Every screw was loose, I carefully checked all the packing stuff and found the missing screw,
and tightened up all screws, everything was loose..

All this from just shipping here..............don't look to good, so far.

I am afraid to mess with it now.........had to leave and finish some other work,
will dive into in the AM.

Tia,
Don

Well, that ain't no good.

Sounds like they were going to break the gun down to fit a smaller box for shipping, then forgot

IIR this was supposedly a refurb

James, can your SVBONY SV177 scopes be used on a springer ?

I could not find any information about that.

Hi Bill/James
I got this feeling............ $:-\$

Yes, it is a Refurb, was handling it this am, and the first thing I did was pinch my little finger,
causing a blood blister.........OUCH, this DF II has a bite like a steel trap.

I can't see any marks on it no where, nothing but cardboard fiber dust,
the manual and 1 mag plus some other parts are taped on the inside of the box,
unopened.....

The handle has a lot of slop in the bar channel, slides sideways,
going to put shims on each side and keep it centered for/on the overall stock alignment.

Open the pump arm and closed it, one time, the pump arm won't close down,
seems to be binding/hitting on something,
pump handle has about 2-3 inches before closing tight to psi chamber.

I think this why it was returned....................I hope.

Found the problem, the center pivot point rivet is digging into the wooden pump handle,
I'll open it up a bit to allow clearance and shim the pump bar arm in the wooden trough
before goin any farther.

I'll say this, the pump pressure is nothing, feel like it NOT pumping any air............ $:-\$
Tia,
Don

Seal rebuild kit for my Crosman 130 just arrived via USPS. Envelope was opened when I received it but I don't think anything is missing.

Received my muzzle brake/cocking handle from Brother "SpiralGroove".. put it in front of the heater and set my FWB 124 in the 28f garage.
Went on easy yet solid with a few taps of my dead blow mallet.

Now inside to let both settle in on temp.

Delrin does look nice if one knows how to properly machine them.

Years ago, I ordered four M. Winser (UK) all-delrin "pickles" and had them sent to the PI:

Their internals are like the HW's.
