I could understand that hammer weight could be less but I was under the impression that the block would be identical as in some Theoben rapids I have seen.
But when I tried to install the hammer of my RAW HM1000X into BM500X, the hammer didn't go all the way.
I keenly inspected and again inserted BM500X original hammer and found that only reduced dia of hammer could go into BM500X. It appears that this gun is restricted to medium power. It's shooting 18.13 grain JSB pellets at around 930fps.
Didn't remove the regulator yet to see that at what pressure it is set.
I understand that if I use my balanced valve as I have installed in my HM1000X, the power of BM500X may be brought to the level of HM1000X.
It might have valve which I would have to replace and some more things if required to make this gun completely tunable for medium as well as high power.
