Title: SERVICE REQUIRED FOR A MINT HARDLY USED MFR
Post by: vvt on April 13, 2023, 02:24:10 PM
Please I hope I'm writing this in the correct section.  I have inherited my dad's MFR which has sat in its original box, virtually unused for may years.  I would like to get the gun serviced and in a reliable shooting condition both as a tribute to my dad and to control the killer grey squirrels that infest or garden!   IF KevG has a service slot then I would be happy to drop it off for sorting out.   Thanks in advance for any advice you can give,

You are in the right place to catch KevG!!!
I know it is hard to be patient when your Rapid is Sick...
But KevG has been busy working on a Lot of Sick Rapids!!
So just Hang in there....

Are you interested in trying to repair it yourself??
I am sure we can talk you through it...

Stuart,  because the MFR is so nice and has sentimental value to me, I would rather a "proper chap" sorts it than me bodging and potentially ruining it.  I shall wait patiently for the master to see my post and hopefully answers my plea for help.  Spk soon  Steve

If you want a set of O ring seals serviced I'm only 5 miles away from you. If you want it better than new, Kev is your man.
