Jim had sent it out & had all new seals & lubes installed in her. I cant remember who did the work Jim?? Talking on the phone with Jim we swapped some old Law Enforcement background stories. I was SHOCKED that Jim sent me some AWESOME LE. pins he won!!:D That was just TOO much Jim & Im gonna send those back to you Buddy. I am so honered & floored that you would send me something like that that is so special to you. They belong to you Buddy. I spent a few hours today with the new shooter & I just LOVE it!!:D I was talking with my Buddy J today about what I was gonna do with it,,,,,,, J says to me: DONT TOUCH IT YET!!!! He says: Tim,, thats a really old one just leave it alone,,, he wants to look at it tommorow when I stop by his house on my way back to Gene,s place!!8) Thanks SO MUCH Jim & Heather,,, Im so glad we came up with a trade we are all so happy with!!:D Now,,,,, I gotta go get packed up for my trip to meet up with my fellow GTA Buddys At Gene,s!!!!!! Timbo. PS.,,,,, Im getting my Diana 24 back!!!!8)

You LE guys rock!  That's a sweet shooter and I got this old man living near me that is certified to work on them old babies. He won't even look at a new one. If you need service done to it, HE is the MAN. 75 years old and will talk both yours ears off.

I drop by there when ever I'm close to Lafayette just to let him ramble. It's tooooo much fun.

Enjoy!

tim,...just walked into the office,............and first off; you better NOT send those pins back !! i figure this way, when heather and i venture out east, i can get ya to treat us to a good ol brotherly style bbq !!
i truly hope youll like the lil benji, it looks as if it has a few "cousins" now that to hang around with. bet it would look good with that scope combo you had on the sheridan !!!

Pump mechanisms are no problem. He has about 100 that he made to distribute to other authorized repairmen around the country.

His name is

SMITH'S GUN SHOP
C/O Harry J. Smith
385 HWY 182
Sunset, LA 70584
337-662-3610


He has all kinds of parts that are not offered anymore and loves working on them. I have fondled many airguns in his shop that were made before I was born in 1956.

It may be wise to develope a auto pump system to sell Timmy. In a couple years his arthritis will be kicking in and pumping will not be fun any longer...:)
