My Bad. Got in a hurry and didn't get the breech totally closed and blew the O-ring out. Luckily it stayed on the probe so I didn't lose it. I Know how they are supposed to be replaced. Watched a Tube video, but my fat fingers can't get in the tiny space in the magazine slot to do that. Tried tweesers but that doesn't work. Am working on a big area with white towels all around so I can chase and find that little black circle after my failed attempts.
Breech O-ring on Taipan Veteran

I took the barrel out of mine. Inserted a wooden dowel right up to the o ring groove. Worked the o ring right in with a dab of silicone grease.

You can also tape around your end of the probe loosely stick that ORing onto the end of the probe grease it and slowly close that lever not all the way closed just enough to seat the ORing. Use your fingers to pinch it in while closing the bolt. The tape has to be loose.

The barrel is easy to remove, and the breech seal is then easy to access and replace. Just loosen the bracket screws enough for the barrel to rotate, then unscrew it from the action.
