    Other Valve disassembly, orings?

    Yes um, QB. I cant see it too well but your valve stem doesn't look Too good? Possible mick or dent at 10:00 (and as old as the rest) that may well not burnish out. Might want to source a new one. Last I knew Mountain Air sold nice nylon (other?) valve stem for them. Also give it a little...

    I like reading Hector Medina,he is very knowledgeable in his domain.

    Hector is a nice guy (with funny shoes) to shoot with or talk to. Ask me how I know (no , on second thought dont). Things in the airgun world used to be different. Everyone knew everyone - one way or another- , your word was your bond ...... . Just because YOU don't recall history does not...

    AEA Megalodon or MegaloDON'T ?

    Likely just me but for (no need or desire for tacticool here) I would grab a DAQ .45 or .58 for the same money. Yes a single shot but such a nice traditional kit. Every part made & finished by Dennis including the single cut rifling barrel. About the same price. John

    Hatsan I just picked up a 30 caliber brake barrel 130s carnivore cheap but it doesn't fire break the barrel pull the trigger nothing happens looking to get

    Shucks. That will make it a bit more hazardous to work on. Dry fire isnt good and loaded is dangerous , your call. Surf up "adjusting hatsan quattro trigger" , lot's of diagrams, video's .... . Post up when you get it fixed. John

    Welcome to AIRGUN NATION - please introduce yourself here!

    Excellent choice, both the rifle and having Mike tune it! Now if pistol appeal at all The one (for a springer shooter not wanting to invest in air source.... ) is the crosman 1701P . Under priced for what you get, actually Very easy to fill with a $50 hand pump, only downside is every time...

    Is it cocked? If cocked barrel will have no resistance when re-cocking. IF it take normal (lot's of) effort to break the barrel it is not latching. Perhaps check the trigger adjustment. While be careful. John

    How do high level PCP guns work?

    Just me but, start with everything that can be found of the Girardoni air rifles. Amazing what folks did with 800psi and hand pump. Someone used to sell a book of plans for construction. Di look at the Airforce airgun using an inline valve . No air passages twists and turns for each of you...

    N/A Seneca Dragon Claw Orings?

    They really are simple to work on and darn few orings. And aftermarket valve pin is the biggest power increase (along with slotting the sides of valve body if not already done. This is the original "44 Big-Bore" but the mechanic haven't change mush at all -hopefully factory now slots the front...

    N/A Seneca Dragon Claw Orings?

    Looked only briefly myself, the do have the valve stem , orings are easy at auto or hardware. Also no telling what a phone call can do compared to them updating the web site on such minor parts. John

    N/A Crooked Barn Pistol

    Not related to the (pardon me) but all the great rigs brought back found memories of when "all airguns leak eventually" - like in 10 to 30 years- parts were everywhere and Everyone who shot airguns was great period. Like rember when everyone gave a 3 day inspection on used airguns and no one...

    N/A Crooked Barn Pistol

    Used more of his parts than entire airguns. Did get the little misses a .380 shot pistol for Christmas one year. Test fired it in the garage, big mistake, thank goodness for eye protection. Fired the round balls well also! .380 Pretty sure only the breech on this one was Crocked Barn (??)...
