Hopefully Drum is well. I am curious if you have used one of the “barrel guided” hammers that Drum used to offer. I have one (the hybrid I think) along with the stainless steel spring and “spring centralizer” which seems to work very well. I posted about it awhile back wondering if anybody else has used anything like…Read more

This must certainly be Sean, the creator of the “Blodnob Valve.” Oh man, I hope I got that right. If not, please forgive me. Great to have you back! I have never lost the hope of acquiring one of your valves for Condor.

If indeed I got it right, would you happen to know if Drum from Leupy’s Customs is still tinkering? His website seems to…Read more

I removed the barrel and bushings to find that the bushings were not properly aligned with the “set” hole in the barrel. I had an outfit (I will not name names) do some “tuning” work for me about 8 years ago before I knew every inch of my rifle inside and out and the “tuning”…Read more

It has been awhile since I actually took it out to shoot at a decent distance. Initially, I was just looking to get some readings from my chronograph and then started “sanitizing” some old hard disk drives by blasting holes in them! When I ran out of drives, I started…Read more

I have not been good about inspecting a tin of pellets before using. I have shot many tins of these pellets without issue however the last tin (used with both of my mishaps) I found some pellets that were malformed and would not fit in the barrel. I tossed…Read more

It makes a lot of sense that the pellet may have clipped something inside although I have not yet seen any evidence. I will certainly take a closer look and I have removed it for now. Thanks again guys (or gals!) A thorough barrel cleaning is next.

I am tempted to use a brass brush…

Looking at crown, I do not see anything obvious but my eyes are not what they used to be! I have used cleaning patches tied to some twine and a bit of solvent recently to clean the barrel. I have gun cleaning stuff for powder burners and everywhere I read says to not use brass brushes. Maybe a nylon brush? I am…Read more

I would be interested to test the new HFIRE thing with the regulating nut completely removed meaning the pressure in the main tank is the same as the intermediate tank. I know what my velocities are with my current valve and tophat. The tophat on the HFIRE setup is very different. It is at…Read more

Do both gauges read the same? I think the intermediate cylinder should be the shooting pressure you want regardless of pressure in the main tank. If pressure in the main tank drops below the intermediate cylinder then pressure should be the same.

Oh, I don’t like Mpa. PSI is much more familiar. Seems the gauges should be physically larger to accurately measure Mpa.

I just removed the valve and backed this ‘nut’ out a little and now the other gauge is working and there is air pressure showing in the main tank. I’ll have to use a hand pump beyond this as my scuba tank is only at 1500psi. There…Read more

OK, I have just dry fired my Condor 4 times and emptied the tank which means my ‘fill’ only filled the ‘intermediate’ chamber and did not introduce any air to the main tank which explains the fact that the other gauge did not register anything. I will later remove the valve and try to adjust the pressure regulating nut. This is BS! Why…Read more

Mine arrived yesterday. I was able to install but not test yet. No instructions as stated already. One of the gauges shows pressure after tank fill but the other does not. Air leaked overnight. I tried firing without pellet and it worked. Does not work with Talon Tunes angle adapter as it bottoms out before…Read more
