Used up most of my left over parts from past builds. All I bought this time was a used set of Rick Andres grips (Iagent) and a HPA barrel band and some brass screws.
Went together with some effort, a lot of parts had to be tweaked!!!!! Plus I broke a grip screw head off. Still holds the grip tight but will have to be fixed.
This is the last one :lol:

Thanks, I still need a rear sight. I might pull off a peep from one of my other guns but not sure yet. Any suggestions?
I love the breech, hats off to DerekVinyard, its longer and looks amazing. I also really like the HPA (Blue Forks Designs) barrel band.
Two hidden set screws locks the hardened pivot pin and barrel. I also added a mellonair's bushing and reinforcing ring so the front pivot pin assembly will never wear out.

From Spare Parts? Wow. Nice! . . . . Re: RVA - Are you doing "retained air" with this gun?

She has some weight to her which I like, but balanced. Might morph into something else who knows. Need too tweak a few things for power (restrict the transfer port) Right now it has an enlarged port, too big I think.
RVA is more for swapping out springs for now but as it sits it does retain air. Will be dialing it In this week. I don't want t this to be a powerhouse, I already have a 2289 in .177 with 24" barrel that does that.
