jacksdad Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 Could be anything wrong (well almost!) :blink: I assume its a pre anti-tamper, have you stripped it down before? When you say new seal, which bit have you got? the gun fires by bashing the firing pin against the air cylinder, the air then goes through a transfer port then down the barrel...not a great deal to go wrong! Can you feel a blast of air coming from the action when you pull the trigger? They are very easy to work on, feel free to pm me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swift Posted October 7, 2011 Report Share Posted October 7, 2011 if you get stuck bring it to me and I will strip it down clean all the parts change all seals and set it up to the limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
