Just bought this airgun new from AOA. My first Daystate and second PCP (FX Crown). Even after researching on the internet, I’m not clear on how to adjust the hammer spring. Could anyone please provide a link, step-by-step instructions or a video? Would be most appreciated. Thanks!

Hey, Bob,

I'll just copy you the material I have so far collected on my Wolverine R.

Hope it helps.
I'm not the wonder mechanic and gunsmith like so many here on the forums. But I adjusted power just fine, no big deal.

HAMMER ADJUSTMENT (EXTERNAL)
(HST, but technically it's hammer weight adjustment)

● Video at 25:22min:

● Video — here for Revere 12FPE, but the same for the Wolverine R HiLite:

● Daystate: Slingshot Valve explained:
▪▪ "I have to adjust the hammer throw.... in this rifle because of the slingshot hammer technology, you dont adjust hammer spring tension as usual. The hammer system has a screw in the center of the hammer that you can adjust forward or backward, if you adjust it forward, the hammer will hit the valve with more force, if you adjust it backwards, with less force ... This is the way to increase the speed in the hammer side, in this case there is no adjustment in the spring, it is directly in the hammer .... you have to find a balance between the regulation pressure and the hammer strike to achieve the desired power without losing efficiency. | Not sure if it is 3mm or 4mm, but first you have to loosen a little screw on the side that blocks de main screw for turning."

● Hammer adjustment for older, unregulated version ➔ and NOT for the R version!


REGULATOR ADJUSTMENT

REG Adjustment: Degassing + Disassembly
● Video:
● Rotate clockwise (CW) = to reduce pressure
125bar to 145bar: 3h-turn (the photo on the Huma webpage confirms this amount roughly)
● OEM = Huma
Huma shows its reg to be either 60-110bar — or 100-170bar.

Hi.
I also have .22 ghost hp. how much did you buy it? When I asked AOA, $600!
you still can shoot pallets okay with that slug barrel? What FPS did you shoot the 23.39gr?
thanks!

Click to expand...

Since I am buying the gun new and wanted to exchange the standard barrel for the new slug barrel, we did a little horse trading, and they let me have the barrel for $100.00. The guys at AOA I have found to be really good to deal with and are very accommodating.
For my current Ghost, I have found 930 fps to be the most accurate. I tried several different velocity's and 930fps always grouped the best. I also tried several different pellets, including the JSB 25.39gr redesigned deep, but the JSB 25.39gr redesigned shallow always shot the best.
Something else also, I have had several different PCP air rifles over the years and my Ghost 22cal. has been the most accurate, reliable and consistent. That's why I bought another one when I found out BRK now offers a slug barrel for in.
Let me know if you have any more questions.

In my country you can buy the Velox in .177, but Hatsan rate it inexplicably low power compared to the .22. Maybe the system gets pretty ineficient in .177, but I would like to see a chrony test somewhere.

Modelo	velox
Calibre	4,5 mm/.177cal	5,5 mm/.22cal	6,35 mm/.25cal
Máx. Velocidad de salida (*)	203 m/s (670 fps)	188m/s (620fps)	175m/s (580fps)

that looks like a chart I remember seeing from hatsan on the velox before it was released.. and if I remember correctly the numbers all look as I remember
I've got the 22 caliber second batch from pyramid air..
I have never seen the 177 caliber listed anywhere for sale.

Good thought and worth a try. A Red Rider would do the job to harass them and it's very quiet. One lever stroke spits the bb's out at about 350 fps. Could be the solution.

I hope you’re good at replacing o-rings too!

But seriously, have you ever shot that many shots in a single day. Sounds a bit unreasonable to me.

Click to expand...

With a 22 Rimfire and 223 I've shot up to 4,000 rounds in one day I am extremely new to PCP guns not sure on how long a bottle will last I already bought a $4,500 compressor not sure if I would need a 97 or a 100 cubic foot bottle as well I'm looking for information and guidance being that I don't know anything about this I don't want to travel 500 miles and run out of air with real guns I normally take 20,000 rounds I've done as many as 14,000 rounds in a week ground squirrels any help or any information would be greatly appreciated even on your suggestion on pallet weight I was told 25 is good someone else said the 33.9 jsps are better for further range so they'll slap the target harder so it is a clean kill also doing rabbits coyotes that's about it thank you for any information is greatly appreciated

The gk1 is not designed nor do the specs call for 80fpe in that pistol. Do folks push it to that point yes, but at a risk.
We have tested our moderator to 50FPE in the GK1 and the shorty GK1 w 33.95g, that in our shop is max power for the GK1. I do beleive the manual states 45joules is the range out on the GK1. I have not tested the moderator on the GK1 to 80fpe nor will we.
We have had several gk1 pistols in the shop to replace the sear catch arm and the trigger arm due to folks pushing the limit, just a word of caution.
Have we tuned airguns beyond factory, yes, but we take the time to replace or improve on any parts we think will not handle the new specs.
We use this moderator for our Taurus which produces 360fpe in .357 with no issues albiet at that level provides a 60% reduction in muzzle sound with 7 baffles.
Thank you folks

Thank you! Fantastic reply and insight on the GK1.

Disaster!

Used my FX Panthera 700mm Superior Heavy Liner and JMS-Pro 18.3gr unsorted pellets. Without the two remaining wind flags that I have left, this would’ve been a horrible card.

Wait a minute… why am I the only one documenting everything from tape measured distance starting at the firing line up to the target, actual shooting and actual wind conditions that are not weather app based?

Marine ply is very $$$$$ , i would use 2x6 or 2x8 edged and glued to make a top , then several coats of marine deck varnish OR just had that pic in my file , in reality to heavy . I bought "Used scraps" of Marine ply at a pontoon boat repair place from re-decking jobs 2 ft. x 4ft. pieces for small amount $ . three coats of marine Spar Varnish and 8 years later as row boat seats out in the weather Still holding together .View attachment 544816

I just bought a new BRK Ghost 22 cal HP from AOA and I had them put one of the new 1-17 twist slug barrels on it.
I have a BRK Ghost 22 cal HP that has the 23in. barrel on it that shoots the 23.39 JSB redesigned shallows extremely well.
I've always wanted a dedicated slug shooter and a dedicated pellet shooter as well and it looks like I might get what I have been looking for.
Any suggestions on which slugs I should try?....I already have some Hybrids and Howlers on hand. What I mostly shoot is Starlings, Crows, Pigeons,
Groundhogs and Gray squirrels.
Thanks!

i had a similar experience a few weeks ago. i packed up for a day of shooting with some friends and when i got to our shooting site i noticed my 3L refill bottle was empty and i didn’t bother to fill my guns before leaving my house. talk about a bummer.

Could it not be said your buying "Cheap' and getting what you pay for hoping / wishing for something more ?

3 to 6 shots and not able to hold Point of Aim from 2 different chinese scopes isnt great.. $165.00 isnt free. My used Sightmark Wraith has lasted over the use of 300 lbs of one once slugs shot through.. I also bought a super cheap Simmions Pro Traget 4-12x40 like under $50.00 refurbshied ebay...Its holding up...I dont know.. When i was young shooting Benchrest I wore out the tracking on all my Nightforce Benchrest scopes... I think the digital scopes are more reliable than there day scopes dollar for dollar... I never thought id say a camera is more reliable than a day scope optic.. But they are Im scared to touch scope turrets...I broken most scopes in time from actually using them.. I use a coldshot mil adjustable base and or adjustable scope rings to optically center..

I just bought a new Vector Veyron 6-24x44Ir SFP mil gid recticle..$167.00 on alliexpress.. I loved the recticle, the glass quality was good for the price.. It held up on my Airforce Condors..Not the same story with my .510 Texan 3-6 shots and it wrecked the scope..I got a new one under warranty but with the Veyron warranty i think you only get one replacement under your 5 year warranty.. So im kinda scared to use my new veron replacement scope...If it breaks i through them both in garbage and out $167.00.. I hope to be wrong but that the way i understand it... The chinese scopes are almost breaking instantly from the recoil of the .510 Texan.. Scopes that take the recoil are Nikon tactical and Sightmarkwraith Digital scope.. I tried a Monstrum Challenger on my .510 three shots scope ruined .. I just bought a Athlon talos used and it has better glass than the Vector Veyron.. The vectors not bad but the Athlon talos is better. I used to have good scopes Nightforce Benchrest and Sightron so i do know glass quality..

Give the "SeeAll" sight a look. It's short and mostly unobtrusive.
They have a few different models.

If anyone is curious the Veteran airtube orings are 23x3mm and the Mutants are 21x3mm so there is a slight difference. Almost all the other orings are the same based on my searches so I have them.

I found the 3 shims in my regulator, and realized I did not need to mess with the stack that is held in place by the white O ring. First I removed the 2 blue shims this made the fps to low for the 18 , but was damn near perfect for the 14.3. then I replaced one of the blue shims and the 16 grain were perfect. Then I removed the brown shim , and replaced the 2 blue , and I would say from the last 2 - 5 shot groups that it was worth the trial , and error work. It's not the speed of 890 , but great 5 shot groups. #1 Average is
837.32 #2 is 834.26 the middle photo is the Crosman Premier HP 14.3 with the slip noted. The bottom pic below the Crosman groups is showing the last 2 groups with the 18 grain Apolo domed field & target.

17.5gr nsa going 789-790 fps. the phone is directly under the moderator

I feel your pain, went into the gun safe a couple of days ago to clean my PB's and noticed my cricket tact II 22cal. and carbine long 22 cal. both were lower than I left them ( I put painter's tape on the gauge to mark the pressure when storing). The carabine long I bought in 2018 or 19 so I expected it to happen.

Click to expand...

Yeah 2 leakers is no fun! Yeah it's bound to happen and I usually buy all the orings for my guns once I have them but forgot about the Mutant having a different airtube. Plus with the age of this gun I knew better. Probably the temp swings in my truck of over 70 if not warmer inside and also freezing the last few mornings doesn't help on old orings.

@subscriber and @TorqueMaster both dodd a great job with a prototype mod based off of one i put together for the notos. it’s definitely much quieter than the dfl i’ve tried.

Thank you very much for your Answers.
I'm not interested in always shooting at full power, I'll rarely do that, but it would be cool if you could shoot at full power and not bother anyone. A silencer is currently being built based on my idea for the GK1, let's see how the performance is. I'll report it if there's interest here. But I will mainly use the GK1 with significantly less power, I don't want to have to constantly refill the Huben GK1. Let's see, maybe I'll buy the Huma Regulator, so I can experiment with it. Quick question if someone has installed the regulator, is it still possible to use the power screw in the handle and use it to additionally regulate the power?

Click to expand...

I have the shadow and it works pretty well in the back yard and I’m in a neighborhood. I rarely shoot full power but it seems to be ok.

I shoot the AVS 61 VUL slugs in my Vulcan 3 700 and nothing else. It is more accurate at any distance than I can shoot. I’m shooting at 103 fpe. The AVS slugs are .3063 cup base that were made just for that gun.
