Congrats!!
Excellent stuff indeed. I became a fan of this when I used to read western comics... and got crazed out when Sunny Deol used something similar in a movie called 'Dacait'... I watched the movie about 6 times, just to see this gun! .. and made posters of it and stuck them up the room :)
... of course I was a kid then, but the passion to appreciate such beauties has matured even more :)

Hi Grewal thanks,

My dad used about 100rds of KF ammo. Some turn out to be duds. One or two had jammed during the loading. One even got stuck in the lever action mechanism and could only be removed on complete dismantling of the firearm. I am staying away from them.

Regards,
Ice

ok, iceman, when ever u use KF again pls note ---

1) clean each .22 bullets before loading with a dry cloth (As they have lots of dry wax attach to it)....this is what we do, if we use KF for our practise. And this is only for .22...& only KF...

2)clean ur magazine & bore nicely when you use ur gun next time....

3)Please put a drop of any good gun oil ----to all ur mooving parts, including slide --(when you do martini action + striking hammer joint & spring), so as to ensure smooth functioning...and no jamming further...

Last pls fallow all safety instruction when ever u use any air gun + any firearm.....Happy & safe shooting....

)))cheers!!!
