Peter said screw it, so I’m sending it back, and getting .25 since I sold my .25 cricket. I will let you know how it all goes in a few weeks once I receive.

Because it was leaking I always reached for my Edgun and kept putting off dealing with it, particularly because I shoot WFTF field target events. I got it three months ago, but I will try calling peter again. I was hoping it’s happened to someone else and found a fix.

Otherwise internal reg o rings made need changing and reg cleaned thoroughly.
