I recently bought a hatsan flash qe .25cal refurbished. My magazine got stuck and loaded 5 pellets in the barrel, I was able to get them out with a cleaning rod. I'm wondering if it messed up my breach seal. I purchased 2 hatsan flash maintenance kits, but have since found a web sight that's sells those kinda seals really really cheap but you have to know the sizes of the seals, I don't have a micrometer to measure them and I looked on hatsans website for the sizes but can't find any info. If anyone knows of the sizes or really any information that might help me with my flash I would greatly appreciate it. Also would the 5 pellets getting lodged in the barrel mess up my breach seal, or does hatsan replace all the o-rings before the send them out to a customer? T.I.A.
 
There is a guy that did a very good summary on YouTube of all the O rings sizes in a Hatsan Flash Pup. I believe that the Flash and the Flash Pup actions use all the same O rings so this might be just the information you are looking for. It is a long video but if you go to 31:30 into the video that is where he starts giving all of the sizes of the O rings in the gun. If you only care about the breech O ring then you can go to 32:50 into the video. Hope this helps!

Thanks I seen this video and thats were I got the o-ring website from, I seen he classed them all in the info on his page, I sent him a message asking about all this but haven't heard back. All his videos are about the pup and I dont have that version, but I think I'm gonna buy some calipers so I know what all the seals are. HATSAN charges soooo much compared to them, I can get like several full sets for a fraction of the cost, I ordered 2 kits from them so I can measure all the o-rings so I never have to pay 20$ for just 1 set! Thanks for youre response! Do you think I messed up my breach seal but the over load in pellets?

It is certainly possible that when you pushed them out (I assume inserting the rod from the muzzle end) the skirts of the pellets might have snagged the breech O ring and damaged it. To test if it is damaged, load a pellet into the breech, close the bolt, place a Kleenex (or some toilet paper) over the top of the breech and fire the gun in a safe direction. If the O ring is leaking the tissue paper will jump or be blown off the breech, if the O ring is good the tissue paper will not move.
