ixm9200 Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Hi all, new to the scene. I'm from Sheffield and has been wanting to own a pcp rifle as I have read some good reviews. I decided to buy a used rifle Logun Axor .22 as my first precharged rifle so if i break it it wont hurt me so much:) . When I bought it curiouly the seller gave me a recorded chronograph (not seen one of these before) this only measured as I recalled 10.5 lbs/ft I think this is lower than that stated for the rifle's performance (you may correct me on this 12 lbs/ft). I have now got a problem after owning the rifle for uner a year. I don't want to go back to the shop due to dis service, not happy will never go back. The guy I bouht it from was not helful either (full of himself). Now My rifle is leaking and I don't know of a good place to have it repaired (if it can be repaired) and can it be possible for it to be put back to the 12 lbs/ft it's supposed to do? Or am I best buying a new one? Thank you for reading my long winded post, I would be greatful for your input... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radio1ham Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 well maybe just a case of renewing the rubbers seals as they dont last forever some folk do the work themselves but if you unsure of how to do the work best take it to someone who knows what they are doing or a gunshop it may cost a few quid to have the work done ,but better than having a pile of bits lying around if you unsure they will also most likely give it a full service which wont do any harm and you can ask them to set it just under the legal limit 12ft lbs the gun should be like new once the work has been done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ixm9200 Posted June 29, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Thank you for your swift response I will take it to a gunshop. I am now prepared to travel further for a quality job rather than dealing with robbing people. Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
staglioni Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Try Henry Krank at pudsey good shop and the gun smith will show you what he is doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Axe Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 Welcome to PW. Have you thought about phoning Logun? They also do service and repair work. If your rifle is in warranty, a good place to start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bullet boy Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 My advice fella-take it to a gunsmith!All the best on that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevethevanman Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 (edited) I was told they build them deliberatly under the 12FtLb limit so if the gun disels and the velocity spikes then there is no danger of going over the 12FtLb limit into FAC, but these are usually set to 11.-something, but your readout will not drasticaly affect the rifles preformance, but i would still say go to a gunsmith it shouldnt be that much to get the gun looked at.

sandgrounder Posted June 30, 2008 Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I have an axxor too and the problem is almost certainly the shraeder valve. Easy to replace yourself. I bought several and it takes about 10 mins to replace. Adjustment of the power is very easy but best done at a gun smiths or at the very least make sure you chronograph the gun after adjustment.
