How do you find the CP88 for shooting and accuracy? Still playing "John Wayne" with the lever'd Winchester? _________________ ` I'd say "I care." But I'd be lying.

The CP88 is quite good for accuracy considering that it is a replica gun, it would be better with a lighter trigger, which I will get to one of these days. As for the Winchester! I'm still playing with that, I have changed every piece of plastic except the butt plate and the trigger. at the moment I am making a accessory case and rifle stand for it, I'll post photo's when finished.

Care to post the details on it?   Posted: Tue Jul 24, 2007 5:22 pm Alstone Moderator & Site Supporter Joined: 01 Mar 2007 Posts: 4139 Location: Linconshire, ENGLAND Hi Kdoubt The Twinmaster I bought as an Action Co2 model, which althrough very accurate looked a bit crappy, so the first thing I did was to put a suppressor (silencer) on it as had a crack like a rim fire .22 I do a lot of shooting in my back Garden and if the neighbours don't hear anything there happy, the barrel is floating on the Action so I fitted a shroud over the barrel and fitter the silencer to the shroud, the rear of the shroud is sealed with an o-ring to the barrel so the barrel can still float. The silencer is a 1/3 fold back type (One third slides back over the barrel)which I made, it's 8" long and 1" dia with 3 baffels, and all the sound you can hear is a dull "phff" when fired just like the movies. I use a Walther MRD red dot sight, fitted Combat Grips heavily modded with a dremal tool, also modded the internals to increase the output from about 360fps to 550fps. And thats about it, instead of a crappy looking gun that shoots well, I now have a mean machine that shoots well.

How much did it put you back after all was said & done?   Posted: Wed Jul 25, 2007 1:25 pm Alstone Moderator & Site Supporter Joined: 01 Mar 2007 Posts: 4139 Location: Linconshire, ENGLAND Hi Kdoubt as far as I can remember, and I don't like to think about the cost sometimes. The Twinmaster Action was £165.00, a pair of Combat grips were £30.00 if you can get them, the Walther Red Dot was £49.99, and the weaver rail was £15.00 the rest of the bits, Silencer,Compensater breach lock and barrel shroud I made myself, so the total cost is £264.99, $hit! I hope the wife dosen't see this post. Here's a later photo with a new breach lock fitted.

For that money, I'd go and shoot matches with it, as it is well capable of that. I've learned that they're pretty good trainers. _________________ BIG GAP   Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 2:03 am Bhargav Veteran Member Joined: 23 Aug 2007 Posts: 213 Location: WA, USA Hi Al.. how does QB78 shoots ? i guess you have one correct ?   Posted: Mon Dec 17, 2007 6:53 am Alstone Moderator & Site Supporter Joined: 01 Mar 2007 Posts: 4139 Location: Linconshire, ENGLAND Bhargav wrote: Hi Al.. how does QB78 shoots ? i guess you have one correct ? I do still have a QB78 Bhargav but it's a bit cold for it at the moment. Now it shoots very well but when I bought it it was rubbish, I gave it a complete strip down,polish, trigger job, and lube, I had to cut 2" off the barrel to get rid of some faulty rifing near the end.
