Tech Talk / Re: XT500 Ticking sound??

« on: July 22, 2016, 08:54:07 am »

Does the noise go away when you labour the engine in first gear , when you just feather the clutch ? I had a TT500 C that had a ticking noise turned out to be the lash in the primary gears when the oil heated up

Hi guys anyone know where I can buy a 1850"s ish double trigger Tranters pistol/revolver? my great Auntie handed hers in in a gun amnesty in around the 1950-60's . luckily she kept the wooden case with all the business for making it work , just been waiting for someone  somewhere to show interest in guns . I would really like to find a revolver to complete this set before my dad passes on .
