Xskppy Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 Hi guys , so I posted on here before about silencer debris and I thought I had it sorted by changing the baffles but 2 weeks ago for no apparent reason I couldn't hit the side of a barn if I tried , I kept thinking the scope must have had a knock but when I was cleaning it I took the barrel out and looked through it I could see a quarter moon shape at the end , this is obviously the silencer , I was reluctant to drill it out as advised but I did and now when screwed on it seems my pellets now have a clear path , I haven't fired it yet cause I replaced the seals in the barrel a while ago but they have degraded badly and 1 defiantly needs replaced , getting seals locally is ambit of a nightmare but ill get it sorted and get back to yous with my results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dekers Posted November 9, 2012 Report Share Posted November 9, 2012 I don't know what is going on here or recall any of the background, but drilling out a moderator is not a solution to a problem, it is a bodge that should not be considered!

Xskppy Posted November 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Yea but I originally thought it was the baffles inside the silencer but it turns out that the silencer was out of line , how would you resolve his issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably the rifle bore, the muzzle thread or the moderator thread, just possibly the muzzle thread shoulder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xskppy Posted November 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Yes I'm assuming its the thread on the moderator , when I'm looking down the barrel it doesn't seem twisted or bent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamiedenny Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 do you ave another mod you can try on it or take it into an rfd and try one on. I wouldn't drill out the mod because that should never happen so it must be another problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
