It is a new gun and i did open it and tune it a little. I did re-shim as well but in hindsight i didn't spend a whole lot of time shimming. (I didn't have a full set of shims so just slightly tightened everything up a little as it was a bit loose stock)

I have the new gears in now and just spent a couple of hours shimming. With gearbox closed up they spin freely with no apparent metal on metal noise.. there is very little vertical play in the axles (i used .1 to fine tune) They spin for several cycles freely.. this has to be good enough..this aint no Ferrari transmission

I've polished the inside of the gearbox to an almost mirror like reflection with various weights of steel wool.. checked the piston and tappet plate movement and everything is moving freely.

Completely de-greased and re-greased all parts..

I can't think of anything else that i can do but get it all back together and give it a whirl..
