The barrel has slop- or the bushings holding everything in-line are worn and causing the slop? If it's the bushings, they are probably alot cheaper to replace than the complete barrel assembly, which may not come with the bushings anyways.
Your best bet for Gamo parts in the US is probably Gamo itself in Florida, http://www.gamousa.com |

From what I have heard if you are in the US you are out
of luck as Gamo USA dose not surply parts, but
they do have a repair service.
Hope I got it right! |

Don't know for sure about Gamo, but that's how Beeman operates. |

| they want me to send it back. they now have a one year warranty. when i bought it in 1992 it had a lifetime warranty. either way i gotta choke on the shipping. i met a guy @mac-1 air where i live that told me he rebarreled a gamo 1250 to .22. i wonder who did it or where the parts came from. i just did a new spring, sights and grt trigger. sucks to be me. accept for this problem this is a new rilfe. |

| You could try fabricating your own bushings... |

| i'm not that techno. if i had the parts (probably worth all of $1) i could figure it out. i'll keep researching. it sucks that the gamos are such a good platform to tune with but you can only get certain parts. wake up gamo!!! eveyone who can't afford a beeman buys one!! duh |

Tightening the barrel assembly pivot screw may solve the problem. |

| Get a RWS or Crosman. I called up Crosman and they sent me a couple screws no questions asked. Only took a while for shipping and such. |
