ilovemyheckler Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 I have recently bought a 2nd hand Air Arms S410 pcp air gun. Having pumped it up to around 180 bar 5 days ago I have noticed that the pressure has dropped to 150bar. I have only shot about 6 pellets - is this level of pressure drop normal or does it need a service? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pabs Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 The rifle should not leak at all. A loss of 30 bar over 5 days is a lot to lose! Your six shots should have used about 6 bar or so. So yes, you either need to track down the leak yourself and strip and service, or send it off. Either way it needs attention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albion Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Try taking the air tank off and putting it on again. If it still leaks get it serviced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted May 10, 2011 Report Share Posted May 10, 2011 Something isn't right for sure! Any PCP should hold pressure a VERY long time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
