rabbitmad Posted March 3, 2014 Report Share Posted March 3, 2014 hello guys, i am looking for someone in the north east who is good with air rifles, my son has a falcon fn19 and my mate filled it up with a pump yesterday and i went to check the scopes are still spot on for rabbits last night and the gun sounds really loud now, it has a weirauch silencer on it so i put my webley silencer on of my raider to make sure it wasn,t that but it still sounds the same, so i think it needs some attention and it could do with a service as well as new seals throughout, so if anyone knows a man who could do the job or even a good shop in the area i would be very appreciative of the info, thanks, rabbitmad.

Lord Geordie Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 (edited) Could simply be either the transfer port seals or the probe seals! Edited March 4, 2014 by Lord Geordie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 Probe and transfer port seals are not too hard to change! I think it is most likely to be transfer port seals though! Does the gun hold air? If it is holding air and fills fine I would just change the port seals if thats whats gone. When you pull the trigger, is there a rush of air from under the breech area?

Bewsher500 Posted March 4, 2014 Report Share Posted March 4, 2014 get yourself a oring kit from eBay http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Falcon-Air-Rifle-Pistol-Extended-Seal-Kit-FN6-FN8-FN12-FN19-Titan-Raptor-Hawk-/370993575240?pt=UK_SportingGoods_Hunting_ShootingSports_ET&hash=item5660f0b548 best £20 you can spend The FN19 is a POP to strip and once you o-ring it up it is a different beast get a decent set of allen keys keep pulling the trigger until no more air comes out and get busy with the o-rings (the only bit you can possibly screw up is the ball bearing above the trigger assembly, just don't lose it!) if you need a hand PM me and I can walk you through it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbitmad Posted March 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 6, 2014 hello mate, thanks for that but a bit unsure about stripping the gun myself, i have never done anything like that before, if i have a go do i just need the seals or do i need to buy other tools to strip it down, thanks.

Lord Geordie Posted March 7, 2014 Report Share Posted March 7, 2014 As said, a good set of allen keys! A phillips screwdriver and patience. The two things I will warn you about! Air! Dump it all if your doing a full reseal. And the trigger block! It MAY have a crack in it? Be prepared to buy a new one! Also, if your lucky to NOT have a cracked one! You need to follow a procedure to NOT break it when refitting! The block is made from Alloy and the design.is flawed in ny opinion. It is left with hollowed out weak alloy. I am surprised nobody makes an upgraded version out of stainless or titanium etc? Did you find out if it was just the transfer port seals ?
