I set the valve inner spring tension to similar that was before. No problems now. I just wonder what was wrong but seems that disasembling and reasembling worked 😛

Maybe previous owner put an oring under the top hat (instead lowering the top hat it self) to lower the guns energy.

Anyway will try to strap it more later after work.

The bad news is that the screw holding the spring inside the valve (that is closing the valve) was not loose, i can…Read more

Is the valve on new bottles glued or something like that? I cannot screw it out like i do it on my second…Read more

The tank is new (using it for like 6 monts) but i just recently noticed it and dont think that this was so before.

The cocking knob would need to be shaped “L” . Only thing is that it would probably could unscrew sometimes from cocking but to prevent that you could either use strong glue on thread (but this would be rather permament solution hard to unscrew if needed) or better would be to…Read more

A friend made for me new screw with a threded hole to screw in nozzle of my choice. De best was nozzle with 0.25mm hole this reduced fpe form over 50 to 19 fpe. As i needed less than 12 fpe I reduced the energy with top hat. This reduced the energy to only 9-10 fpe even if the power wheel is set to max pwr.

I’d be interested in trying some tight fitting pellets.

I’ve got a trick valve that’s “slow” to open, so light and loose pellets leave the barrel before its got time to do its thing.

With heavier pellets and more friction going down the barrel, I might get enough time…Read more

I can push it in with thumb only about more than half of the slug. To put it all in i need to use extra tools. The slugs have probably more lead in them than pellets as thay are not as hard. I have second barrel in .25 but somehow i found it not as accurate as .22 😡

Maby its somthing simmilar to high hammer spring tension + too weak valve closing spring ?

You mean the part marked red? That was one of the ideas i had. But was not sure how much differance will it do. Maby i will ask someone with precise tools to make me a replacement brass screw with like 0,5mm hole 🙂
