My restored RWS75 (pics)

I bought this RWS 75 from the yellow classified add last year. It has some pitting and light rust areas. After shooting it for awhile I like the true recoilless feeling of the rifle so much that I decided to completely rebuild it. I stripped everything off and had all parts re-blued. I refinished the stock and replace the piston seal with Kung's high performing seal. Readjusting the rear shrim to the new seal. It now shoots Hobby pellets very hot (averaging 683 fps). I really enjoyed working on the 75. I like to get it to shoot at about 800 fps. Fast enough for field target competition. I have few ideas that I can try some day.
