tweedledee Posted December 16, 2013 Report Share Posted December 16, 2013 Did you try taking the stock off? Soapy water round the pressure gauge.they can be faulty.easy replaced . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airarmsandy Posted December 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 its leaking air into the chamber because after ive fired the gun air continues to come out of the barrel until i re-cycle the bolt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crossy 666 Posted December 17, 2013 Report Share Posted December 17, 2013 Take it back mate it could just be a bad seal out of the kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Gnat Posted December 18, 2013 Report Share Posted December 18, 2013 I had one never gave me a problem in fact I've owned about 10 different models in AA rifles and apart from a leak in an SM100 never had any leaks. Thats maybe a record ! Can't understand how air gets out the barrel because of a seal ? If the leak stops when you cock the gun then the valve system isn't set correctly. The spring tension inside the valve pot should at least equal the pressure of the hammer spring.This pressure is why you have a leak, easily sorted.
