HDAV Posted February 22, 2014 Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 You can take it to a shop to be checked, if over the limit they can't let you have it back without turning it down and that will involve a charge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliff 87 Posted February 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2014 I have just put a pellet in it to see if I could tell and know all it is doing is clicking and pellet ant come out what as he done. How am I going to sleep to night know not happy at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliff 87 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Some really nice people on here thank you ever one What I will do tomorrow is have a look at the power screw on the side, I think he has put it all the way in cutting of the air and that's why it's clicking and that's why the pellet won't come out, that's all I hope he as done to it I will never be talking to him again after all the times I have gone out my way to help him out, I had to keep asking him if I could have it back all he was going to do is test it for me and clean it up a bit, I will let you all know if I can get it shooting again, I think he as done this because he knows I have not got the money right now to get it fixed it...

HW682 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I don't want to teach you how to suck eggs.... but it might be worth double checking that you haven't loaded 2 (or more ) pellets now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliff 87 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Hi all. After spending 3hrs i have took it all a part and it was a right mess in side he put that much oil in side it, he did not tighten the screw up he did not put the spring in right, it had air in but as the spring was not in it right was not letting the air in.
