Accessorizing ART (PP700SA)

Mine leaked at the rear of the air cylinder. Easy fix...unscrew the end-cap, slide off the shroud, empty the air cylinder and simply unscrew it (Lefty Loosey). There's a big O-ring between the base of the air cylinder and the gun frame. Just pop it off and replace it. Don't look for nicks, breaks, flaws, sometimes they simply don't show up to the naked eye!

Not being one to get all picky...I grabbed a similar sized O-ring from my Harbor Freight red box of "O" rings, which seems to have every size there is, and slapped that sucker right on. Screwed her up nice and tight. Been months now and not one problem keeping air at 3400 psi, with weeks between use.

I was going to replace the tiny o-ring behind the air gauge, but couldn't get a socket to fit in there, so I left it alone and no problem. (How DO you get that gauge out???)

Just made mine into a FT loaner pistol for a friend. 

Sports a 14.5" Air Arms EV2 LW barrel, tuned for 8.44gr at 795fps with a UTG Accushot scope and a custom 3d printed extension rod with V block to sit in primos trigger sticks. 



Very very accurate.

OK folks here is my solution for a simple, inexpensive ($.33 each) dust cover for my newly acquired SP700. These are automotive panel plugs

purchased at my local Tru-Value. These are sized 7/16"X1/4". The grip cover is from Hogue. The size on it is for CZ 75/85. I haven't chronoed the SP700

yet but hope to get it done tomorrow. These little pistol/carbines are real "sleepers" !!
