    Beeman Chief Orings - Exploded Parts View

    Thanks for your reply Matt. I am looking for those bolt rings too. It’s hard to understand how reputable dealers continue to sell the guns since their is no source for parts or service!

    Tuning Maximus loosing power with ample pressure

    Thanks! It says the degassing tool is only for the Discovery so no wonder it doesn’t work on the Maximus. The literature that came with the tool when I bought it listed both models.

    Tuning Maximus loosing power with ample pressure

    Thanks guys! I need to find a schematic to understand how to remove the breach and understand the parts. I have worked on a lot of firearms but not air arms. I usually follow “if it’s not broke…”. I don’t think there is anything broke since when I put pressure on the hammer (?) with the...

    Tuning Maximus loosing power with ample pressure

    On two occasions my Maximus would barely get to the target (25 meters) after about 10 shots but still has about 1800 psi. I used my degassing tool thinking that I could deplete and pump it back up. It won’t de-gas. But! I removed the tool and was going to just shoot it to remove the air. Lo and...

    Tuning Prod tune

    Ok, I just wanted to make sure about the de-gasser. I got my first PCP just last November so this is mostly all new for me even though I have been working on and using firearms for about 60 years. I appreciate your help and encouragement!!! I live on a lake and I would love to hunt squirrels...

    Tuning Prod tune

    You make it sound easy! But I have never been inside one of these. About the only thing I could do is shoot the air out. BTW, why not use a de-gasser?

    Yes the Spike Camp model. No mods at all. Take the safety out, unscrew the one stock screw and swap right out. That was my concern since it’s for a Discovery but it fits perfectly.
