Gamo swarm Magnum loading mechanism is broke
- Thread starter imbrbing
- Start date
Well most been able to contact gamo support and get a new part . ( Thats big for gamo to give parts out for anything ). Wount sell a piston seal bit no problem sending out a auto loader part for free. Lol .. gamo .. lol
Just send email with the issue and maybe pictures .
At worse they'll ask you to send it in under warranty. If under a year old all cost is on them if over a year on a "5 year" warranty gun You just pay shipping to them . They will yell you whats needed .
I used there warranty once on a bad gas ram and it was quick and easy .

Ya that gen 3 .22 looks like a gamo only item .. . As i said , Theres been guys that contacted gamo and surprisingly hamo actually sold or sent them a replacement.
Its a you ask them and they will yell you yes eell send or sell you one or if your good under warranty just send it in . They pay for shipping in its in the first year of the gns warranty after that you just pay shipping to them .
Or just remove the sito loader and shoot single shot .
P.a and a place or 2 did show a gen3i but all were .177 only . No .22

"Wount sell a piston seal" Vortek now sells them, both my gamo's have them. To early to tell the final outcome. I have been through 5 seals now in my 2 gamo swarm Magnum's gen3i 10x.
Lessons learned:
Got a freebie from them with a scope, but the company pisses me off, sent one in, got it back, still shot crappy, opens it up, piston seal was dorked.
#1) DON'T DRY FIRE THESE THINGS!!! My latest one dorked up with just one dry after about 2500 rounds.
#2) DON''T put ANY silicone or grease for the seal, my latest one lasted the longest by not doing that during the "cleaning process". And I have been cleaning air guns for 30 years. These guns are DIFFERENT.
#3) Pay attention to the pellets in the mag's, every once in a while the next one one will pop up in its holder, DONT cock the gun with it like that, it can f' up the loading mechanism
I shoot every day, all through the day, and these things take out game @75 yards all day long when you have a good scope that ain't broke yet and the seals aren't "seared and pitted".
Other than that, I got nuttin!

My Gamo's autoloader was very pellet picky. CPHP and FTT pellets would fall out or get pinched by the barrel when it closed. It liked Red Fire pellets, but those are too expensive to shoot on a daily basis. I just gave up on it and removed it.

Ya, gamos funny but they got there ways. I do see they offer more part then a few years ago . A bug got in my baffles and caused a pellet to deflect off it enugh to clip the baffle.
Back then gamo was a stick in the mud and only help was " send it in so pur gunsmiths can look at it "
Im like whats to look at its busted .. sent pictures .. so i glued ot back together. Today you now can buy the baffles from there shop. Yet madr a big to do over it when i needed it .. lol.. gamo ..lol
I had this i m shooting right now a matter of fact about 8 years . Still even back then i knew better then to go novelty gun and stuck with one of there better single shot guns ..
Also lesson i learned by chance talking to them about one was if you buy a gamo be sure its a 5 year gun .
There tiered. 1 year warranty guns, 3 year and 5 year ..
