Which PCPs have the least amount of O rings?

Which PCPs have the least amount of O rings and OR require the least amount of maintenance???

I am aware that the western bush buck only has a couple and is easy to repair out in the field if needed....

Just curious due to the knowledge base thats present here on the forums. Thanks.

Simplest would have to be Airforce airguns.
The spare ring kit (so far not needed) has 4 o rings in it.

I think my RTI Prophet V1 has 14, but not 100% sure on that, but still a relatively simple gun to work on.

orings typically dont go bad all by themselves .. usually its on disassembly, and you can head that off by deburring the gun well .. the most likely 'field' failure imo will be a fill port seal .. have a spare and the tools to change it i think would be a wise choice in a travel kit .. but to answer your question directly - cheap guns lol

Yep, cheap, unregulated guns. Some high end as well, but likely not any new models. I believe my brocock grand prix has 4 orings, but it's 12yrs old. And also, I've never been able to disassemble it fully. The end cap has no knurling and almost no surface area to grasp hold of.

The FX platform I own & love is the Bobcat/Royale/Boss. All 3 of those are INCREDIBLY low maintenance. I have to clean barrels MAYBE once a year. Very simple, accurate & robust guns. Beautiful shooters out of the box! Pellets only due to the Original Smooth Twist barrels on all. I THINK about 10 o-rings. I've never had cause to disassemble them because nothing has ever gone wrong!

RAW’s have around 11 orings total.

Highest failure it the bottle oring, then the reg and quick fill.

My experience, if you have those 4 orings on hand…you can make any old raw function like new

Air Arms S4xx/S5xx rifles have to be talked about here. Among the most bulletproof and reliable platforms if not THE most reliable.

Regulated and unregulated both have small o-ring counts.

Cricket, Veteran - both very low maintenance. Never replaced a single one.
Leshiy 2 - haven't had to replace an o-ring in 2.5 years unless I caused the problem.

Edguns R3/R3M

The older non regged Rapids I was told only had a bottle o'ring?! Not positive but was told that......

 

[Peskådot671]

I just counted the o-rings for the AAA Evol from their schematics page. Looks like 14 o-rings total.

 

[JimInSoCal]

USFT - 8 in most tube configurations. And other than the occasional scope change and cleaning, it has required no maintenance. bought it around 2010.

Yes a 90 duro in a female O.D. position within the tanks male fitting to fast fill adapter. What a pain to service those !!!

 

[igolfat8]

RTI Prophets have 7 O-rings in total.
