Guest jonrms Posted June 21, 2006 Report Share Posted June 21, 2006 Anyway stripped it down and inside the barrel bit....... when you take it out is a round coin like shaped object... sorry not that technical.... anyway there is a thread there and this coin like object is loose.... i was wanting to double check that that is the one for the power increase/decrease... I have a chrono (as of this friday) and will have a play to get it to 12lb pressure... but has anyone any information/ diagram of this rifle... ps its a **** gun in my eyes. thanks.

P03 Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 Jon, Is a mk1 or 2 ? The mk1 had many problems but I don't think power was a problem. The thing to remember about PCP's is they have a power curve. My Mk2 will only put out 10.5lbs ft with a 13 gn Accupel on a full charge but once I've fired about 10-15 pellets it goes up to just over 11 lbs ft and to be quite honest I wouldn't set it any higher as the risk of going over 12lbs ft is too great (get caught and that's the last time you'll ever fire a rifle) Sorry can't help you with your technical problems I find the idea of stripping down an S16 daunting and I've been an Avionics Engineer for 20+ years But my advice would be send it back to Logun let the experts sort it out.

Guest jonrms Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 its ok. i was just checking... i dont like AGS / logun... as I havnt had the best of experiance with them... stripping the new S-16 was easy.... and finding the problem was easy as well..... just got to take your time with it. I am sure this is the cause... I should take some photos and post them on.. but then I am afraid if I do then irresponsible people will try to up the power... which is something I am not after. I will try it on my own..... I get the chrono on friday so will have a dable with it then.... fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jonrms Posted June 22, 2006 Report Share Posted June 22, 2006 thanks bud will need it.... to assemble and disassemble it is a piece of cake.. its not rocket science..... although i was a bit scared... but because i hate the gun so much i figured i had nothing to loose.
