Here it is,
Shooting as it should.
You see its lent to barbwire etc, so try and get in back in the factory where it was done in the first place.
Needs setup on hammer spring pressure, its hard as,
No travel too. Al

Fine looking rifles the Ripleys but I've only seen photos of them, never in the flesh. Always had it in mind to get one if the opportunity arose for a good example. Hope you can get yours back to its full former glory!

Thanks there, it will. Shop that does them new only 7m off, so bit of heat for the barrel sleave and no air on the cylinder and both of there,
Needs a fiddle on loading up  and hammer travel. Al

Hope its in old ripley worker shed next week.
He no the art to get it to the workshop to get it done, he used to take them.
He sort the back end out too.  Eg round the trigger. Al

Some strange engineering inside, not in steve,s shed,
If true there was no transfer port. :0. 1 in now,
There no reg inside, so a 240bar knock open fill only, lol.
Should report in later, he filled my bottles aswell and said its done today,

I got it back, he didn't put the adjustment bolt back in.
I called in on my way to a farm foxing 
Got it out to show dan and found out its missing.
No air in, so a hammer back on filling. If low fps on air in i pack other end of the spring up till adjustment screw back. Al
