I got a Diana .177 Stormrider for my birthday and I'm really, really enjoying it and I'll probably use it for the Pyramyd Air MoA challenge. My question is; I want to add a barrel band to my Stormrider and got one from Buck-Rail because it has a picatinny for my bipod. Do I need to empty the cylinder, bleeding the air out of the gun before I remove the 19" barrel which is required for the barrel band installation? I shot the gun today and I'd like to install the barrel band tomorrow but I don't want to fill it up until I hear from you guys. I've searched the internet for the answer but had no luck.
Thanks, Mark
