Great video, but it really isn't as hard as that looks!😁 Here at TbT we are always ready to answer your questions, but we draw the line at re-glazing your conservatory!🤣
Excellent video thank you! This has to be the most enjoyable video that I have ever watched on RUclips😂 I used to write magazine articles for Military Modelling magazine, for my first commission I was given a new plastic model kit which had not been released in the UK and I set it on fire(!) I documented this and other mistakes that I made and how I rectified them and it was all published in the magazine. The feedback from readers was that they loved it, because no one had ever admitted to making mistakes in magazine articles before. Nearly taking out your conservatory window illustrated the danger of the spring removal far better than a glib "Be careful, because the spring in under pressure" ever would! I hope that your wife forgives you eventually and that you allowed back into the house.
Gary, you made me smile there mate, at 13.11 with the spring bursting out, the look on your face and 'fiddley dee' exclamation were superbly funny, yer a good man, great video 👍
Speaking of muzzle weights, I hope I can help someone. I have a HW95K and although it's had a TBT short stroke dropped in, it still flipped and twisted terribly. I was gonna get rid. Anyway, I found a chunky 3" bolt and wrapped it in leather. Then I used camo tape and finally electrical tape to solidly fix it underneath the very end of the silencer/moderator. It weights 125g and doesn't get in the way of cocking or closing the barrel. The results were phenomenal. It went from a load of garbage to a tack driver that almost rivals my TX200. Like I say, this is just what I'v bodged to make the rifle infinitely better and I hope it helps someone 👍
Another great video. When I saw the screwdriver going in to free up the spring I did think “oh no!”, and was right. But I’m pleased you left it in the video. It demonstrates to people the preload that these rifles can have and the danger they can cause. Better they see it on your video than experience it themselves. I guess it’s a reality video. Take care and stay safe. Cheers 👍
Really enjoyed the TX200 video and this one as well. Most of us can shoot a gun fairly well but, like you, are not great at fettling them. But you've shown how most of us would get on if we did it ourselves. I'm going to have a go. Thanks.
I can recommend TbT products. I have installed in both my TX200 & Prosport. They have been transformed from bucking bronco to pussy-cats. Be sparing on lubrication, I used the optional MoS2 Paste.
Short stroking doesn’t increase power as it reduces the space in front of the piston(swept volume) hence reducing the power as well as the lock time. Short stroking is great for the hw80, webley tomahawk, Diana 52 and similar magnum rated air rifles.
Thank you, I enjoyed that 🤣 There were lots of lessons for everyone to learn 🤣 I fitted a TbT tuning kit a few days ago, fortunately there were no ‘near misses’/comedy moments 🤣 The only real problem I had was getting the new spring guide into the spring that came with the rifle - it was a very, very tight fit. I found a sash clamp (about £15 from ScrewFix) was just what I needed to compress and lock the spring it in place. P.S. don’t forget the safety catch, that needs to go back in before the trigger mechanism is refitted.
Great video... I do like to see these "Ooops" moments as they show just where and when things can go wrong. They do make oneself be a little more careful when working on a gun at home. Besides that, it's kinda funny too.! 😁
we made india this only nx200/nx100/px100 precihole sports these are nitro piston and not gorgeous airgun🙂.l love tx200 my favourite airgun ever.from india🤗
Thanks Gary . This is just what us mere mortals are prone too , nobody's perfect . very interesting . It would be good if You could do a video about replacing a Gas Ram in a HW 95 . Thanks again , Shoot Straight ,Stay Safe & Stay Well .
@@garychillingworth Thanks Gary , These Videos help Keep Me Sane in these Crazy Times . Please thank All the rest of S&C TV Gang For Me . Stay Well ! .
I was having , a bad day , Gary, but then I stumbled on your video, I'm still laughing here , when the preloaded shot the end of the compression chamber, across the room, good job your cat was outside would have hit I'm up the arris,
Warts and all Gary. Makes for a humorous watch and shows we are all human. Gives me confidence to have a go at my 98. How about the same for the 77. Might of already done one doh!. Great entertainment with learning.🙈🙊🙉🙏
Great vid this one. Couple of questions come to mind. 1) increasing the length of the piston would reduce the power as there is less air to compress in the chamber, yes//no? 2) no silicone grease on the piston seal..?
Thanks Gary. I was waiting a long time for this and I don't know how I missed it (subscribed). Bit of a comedy one. I'm glad I had my 98 professionally tuned as I would have had even more "fun" than you :) .
Gary, I'd say make your own vids,it makes me feel slightly less of a clumsy bugger! good information AND entertainment is what it's about!!!👍btw, my standard drop-in Tbt kit arrived today (& I'm taking it to my favourite gunsmith for fitting 🤣).
@@jimstewart5008 I'm not going to hide anything as I learn more from mistakes than sucsedding. I've learnt alot from this and strangely, the gun is now bloody brilliant.
Brilliant video, very helpful and even had me laughing. Question, you said 'we set the trigger' then you went ahead and set it, but how do you do that, what did you do. Is it just pushing that thing in at the back until it clicks?
@@ShootingCountryTV It's great I'm new to air gunning and have started with some backyard plinking with a Remington express compact .177. I've been watching "the airgun show" with Matt and he never misses or it's edited to be like that....all well and good but I prefer the way you show it ....that even seasoned shooters miss and cock up now and again. It makes me want to keep trying. Great shows and keep it up
Leave the mistakes in . Does a spring guide really quieten it down . I have seen people on utube putting kits in, but nobody lets you hear the difference of before and after . Obviously it doesn’t change the Accuracy, just the noise . As my unaltered 97 is very very accurate.
i don't have a conservatory to stop the trigger housing is a spare room strong enough to stop it or should i just save some money and get a conservatory ?
Can i short-stroke a FAC hw95? the recoil/kick happens while the pellet still traveling down the barrel causing inaccuracy unless I hold it hard like a fire gun.
Rather than remove the barrel, punch out out the cocking link pin and just remove that. Then fit a removable cocking link pin to make the job easier in future.
Enjoyed the video but it’s kind of put me off having a go myself. My HW95K is brand new and twangs really loudly. Does anyone know a gunsmith in Cambs/beds that can do a tune for me?
Totally the wrong way to remove the barrel, correct way is remove cocking arm, then break the barrel and remove the screws as there's no resistance it will be much easier, also when stripping any gun always use a hollow ground screwdriver that will fit the slotted screw perfectly, normal screwdrivers can very easily slip out and scratch the bluing.
Please do not follow the instructions of this person.You will knacker your gun or cause yourself serious harm.I cannot believe this has been done with out any thought to safety.This guy is honest he is not a gunsmith.Anyone that doesn't own a decent brass stripping hammer or set of decent punches and some wood or metal punch blocks shouldn't tinker.I am at a loss for words Gary you should know better.
Great video, but it really isn't as hard as that looks!😁
Here at TbT we are always ready to answer your questions, but we draw the line at re-glazing your conservatory!🤣
Oh my, oh my..... Nick, people must watch your videos. Good to see the gun back together and shooting better than standard though!
Wonderful comment!! The look on his face at the crash was...I thought he was about to turn it and look at it!
Excellent video thank you! This has to be the most enjoyable video that I have ever watched on RUclips😂

I wouldn't change anything about your video. We can learn what to expect by watching you. It is very helpful to the average guy. Thank you sir.

Cheers Kris, that's exactly why I left it in. If my stupidity can save someone making the same mistake, then I'm happy 😀
Keep your video's as they are Garry, great entertainment and well worth watching. Excellent video.
Keep as is, much truer to real life and the trials and tribulations a lot of us encounter.
Great video, many thanks
That's the funniest thing I have seen for a while. Well done Garry great video! Keep them coming.😂🤣😅
Again me Gary, thanks to your video I just fitted the TBT kit and *TWANG* is gone. Awesome!
Nice one Chilly,leave the "oh 'eck!" moments in, we're all human!🤣👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😎😎😎

Keep it real mate. Nice to see issues we could come across, although I haven't got a conservatory.
Enjoyed the vid, looking forward to part 2 barrel weight

We will have a part 2 in a few weeks, in part 2 we will shoot the rifle and test its accuracy and then take it to M.A.D for a real world test.
Looking forwards to that.
So much more complicated than striping the TX200. Excellent video as always. Love the elderberries in the background.
what you can use is an old piston-seal place the cylinder end on it then depress the cylinder / the seal will give you more grip
Brilliant video and I loved the honest approach. ATB MMMD
Great video... I do like to see these "Ooops" moments as they show just where and when things can go wrong. They do make oneself be a little more careful when working on a gun at home. Besides that, it's kinda funny too.! 😁
My wife didn't think so :-)
was considering having a go at my hw95, that wont be happening now!!! ill be paying the postage some ware really enjoyed watching your efforts👍
Speak to Nigel Wood or Richard Nash, drop me an email and I'll pass on his details.
Me too same gun 95k in .177 . Really want it tuned , its pellet on pellet with bisley mags but bonks like a twàt.
It's worth looking at the 2 lbs trigger site on RUclips for HW95/98 strip! I used it to strip my HW98. Very easy to follow! 😎
I'll check it out
ruclips.net/video/4f4MzG-UoBQ/видео.html
He's done a few of them and it's worth looking for them on his site!
Nice
Thanks Gary, great video I really enjoyed watching it. Cheers from Slovakia!
Excellent. Learnt lots. More please!
Keep that up mate ... many people - myself included - could trip over thin air and yet think they should have a go .... lol
Great video, thanks. Loved the Tommy Cooper moment.
Great video Gary keep them coming 👍
Excellent video. Real world install
Love this warts and all. There is hope for everyone!
Hw97,tx200,walther lgv/lgu all type of airgun sub-species family😉
Yes, but the TX is so easy to work on.
we made india this only nx200/nx100/px100 precihole sports these are nitro piston and not gorgeous airgun🙂.l love tx200 my favourite airgun ever.from india🤗
If you are not going to watch the whole video, just watch from 13.05 and see me make a huge mistake :-)
I think your vids are great just as they are.
That really made me chuckle
It made me change my underware...
Thanks Gary . This is just what us mere mortals are prone too , nobody's perfect . very interesting . It would be good if You could do a video about replacing a Gas Ram in a HW 95 .
Thanks again , Shoot Straight ,Stay Safe & Stay Well .
Hi Richard, I'll look into the feasibility off it and whether or not I'll kill myself doing it :-)

Great video Gary had to pause a few times as I was laughing too much. Will get the kit from TbT doesnt look to hard to do.
Glad you enjoyed it - Gary
Nice video, this will be me in a few days having go, learnt a lot thanks.

I'm very lucky in that I have access to a gunsmith who can do it blindfolded (his words!)🤣🤣
Oooops!!!!!😬 13:12 Great that you kept the mistake in! 😎
It was a great learning moment :-)
13:12 in. What was that on the chrono.
I dread to think :-)
Do you not find the gun front heavy as it is without a muzzle weight?
most entertaining. thank you
Ok Gary, you best leave the gun Smith work to someone else, lol. Your the best shot I have ever seen, think your better behind it than in it!
I'm not going to disagree :-)
I am glad you are brave enough to show what happens, might save someone an eye !
@@jimstewart5008 I'm not going to hide anything as I learn more from mistakes than sucsedding. I've learnt alot from this and strangely, the gun is now bloody brilliant.
@@garychillingworth Awesome Gary keep up the good work, I do truly enjoy your videos always learning something new.
Thanks for making that. Most useful.
No problem! - Just don't do it in the conservatory. Gary
Brilliant video, very helpful and even had me laughing. Question, you said 'we set the trigger' then you went ahead and set it, but how do you do that, what did you do. Is it just pushing that thing in at the back until it clicks?
Great nice to see real life filming and not the slick "I'm perfect and never get it wrong" type
It would take about 100 takes for me to look professional :-) Gary

As my unaltered 97 is very very accurate.
Yes, a well fitting guide can quieten a gun and make it smoother.
@@alantippett7602 But if it's smoother, surely that does help with accuracy?
@@MudMaxMetalDetecting yes, it may well do so.
i don't have a conservatory to stop the trigger housing is a spare room strong enough to stop it or should i just save some money and get a conservatory ?
Spare room is fine :-)
I've been waiting for this for so long. I love my HW98 but yes it has a tendency to flip even with that heavy barrel. Great video Gary. Many thanks! 😎
Can i short-stroke a FAC hw95? the recoil/kick happens while the pellet still traveling down the barrel causing inaccuracy unless I hold it hard like a fire gun.
Drop TBT a message, I think they do a short stroke for a 95 - Gary
It's very inspiring to see you do this work.
As you say. If you can do it then I can too.
I'm a bit kack-handed too but not in your league 😁
Welcome to the club :-) Gary
I just tortured my hw98 with a spring change… man my 1 week old rifle has got scars like wwII mausers
morning fella,is there any chance you can recommend someone that can tune my bsa r10 mk2
Hi Paul, Rat Works do some good work on BSA's.
@@garychillingworth thankyou
Rather than remove the barrel, punch out out the cocking link pin and just remove that. Then fit a removable cocking link pin to make the job easier in future.
Funny as that Chilly, sort of thing I would do that lol

Richard Nash, drop me an email and ill put you two in touch. Gary
Use to have a hw ,98 in my opinion doesn't need a barrel weight ,sone has you pick it nose dive,s , fitting a tbt kit should smooth the action out.
absolutely lost it at the little audio edit at 13:14
You and me both :-)
Short stroking should lower power hence the longer spring to compensate
27:10 I hate all the tapping!! t's a shame that Weihrauch don't update the trigger block like the TX but I guess it's all about tradition!
Do what your comfy with don't diss your self I'm fat as well but we don't need to know. hw95 and yes fun at first dismantling .
watching others make a pigs ear of a job, is probably the best way to learn... lol great video, thanks for leaving everything in...
👏👏👏👏

16:25 look at the background 😂
Where is Felix?
very informative but I did cringe a few times with the screw driver slips😅
Not as much as I did
Shouldn't this video be renamed " How not to strip down a HW98" 😉
That's a good idea. The scary thing is though, the gun feels great and I didn't break it :-)
just get on with the job lol your no worse that the others i have seen much worse mate great video
🤣👏
I prefer your videos over a more polished ones- it's more realistic and more like your subscribers, like me! Lol
