Wesman Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 My air rifle is ******* out air when I connect the bottle. Could it be that rubber ring that needs replacing? It's a bit worn out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davy Holt Posted May 16, 2010 Report Share Posted May 16, 2010 Hiya, Yup sounds like the O ring, I did mine in today also when i went to charge the bottle back up A quick dig about the workshop at the farm saw us finding two thinner O rings of the correct diameter, both were fitted and it works a treat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted May 17, 2010 Report Share Posted May 17, 2010 Keep an eye out for O-ring wear and also any bit of grit.hair etc will allow air to leak from your buddy bottle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRYAN3 Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 Hello Folks. I had the same trouble I think. I phoned Airgun Centre and the advice was to put a tiny drop of oil onto the ball bearing in the bottle and push the bearing down with a screwdriver. Its probably best to use something like brass so as not to scratch the surface of the bearing. It worked a treat. ATB-Bryan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
