Airgun Technologies Help needed with filling Uragan 2

[GoldenFrog]

Hello All,

I have an AGT Uragan 2 that I’m having trouble filling. It’s the compact version and the bottle is small. I tried filling it directly from my GX CS4 compressor but it leaks around 110 bar. So I bought a tank and tried filling it with a faster burst of air and it maid it up to 150 bar but still leaks. I bought the gun new from Krale and I’ve already shipped it back to them to check out. They told me it’s fine and held full pressure for three days. My next plan is to refill my filling bottle and try that again with an even faster turn of the release valve. If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it very much. Thanks

leaking from what location.?

 

[GoldenFrog]

The breech.

 

[WorriedMan]

Has it always done this, or just started? You fill with sidelever closed?

 

[GoldenFrog]

I’ve tried it both ways. Lever open and lever closed. I just tried putting the anodized red cap on the end of the barrel. It still leaks out the breach end. Yes it’s always done this, it’s a new gun that I haven’t had a chance to shoot yet. I’m trying to stay calm.

A leak at the breach is the valve leaking. When you get pressure in it up to wherever it starts to leak, dry fire it a few times to let the valve slam shut. This will probably solve your problem but there is no guarantee.

 

[GoldenFrog]

Okay I’ll try dry firing it a few times to see if I can get it to close. I don’t know if this is related or not but the fill probe that came with it on the whip is for not the one I’m using, I guess it’s for european bottles. I have the Eaglevision one but it doesn’t work. So I’m using one I bought from Joe Brancato. To keep both o-rings in the gun I have to NOT push it in flush. Thanks

the fill probe that is on the included whip will unscrew,
so you can then install it on your own fill hose.

or do like i did and install a male foster fitting onto the probe.

Golden,
What's troubling is how Krale got it to work, and you can't. That fill probe situation sounds strange, not sure problem isn't related. My Uragan 2 and Vulcan 3 both use same fill probe, my Uragan .25 uses a different one. I pulled fill probe from fill whip that came with Uragan 2 and installed male quick-disconnect adapter, looks something like this.

 

[starlingassn]

you can also try holding the gun vertical,
and bumping the butt of the gun on something solid while filling.


if i fill from empty i need to crack the tank open and just let it "whoosh" for a few seconds,
then it will click and start filling.

i panicked the first time i filled it thinking it was leaking lol

Man, AGT REALLY needs to address these filling issues with the U2!…….. I posted this yesterday (I think) for another guy with the same issue (and I’ve had it twice now). Try this and see if it fills. Got this idea from Worried Man here!……I seriously doubt that it’s fill probe problem.

 

[GoldenFrog]

Thanks everyone! I’m going to try all your tips! I unscrewed the probe off the original whip but it looks like a different tapper on the internal part that screws into the female.

Golden,
I'm aware of three different male quick-disconnect adapters, 1/8" BSPP, tapered thread and 10mm. I purchased several of each from Amazon, just to have them. The Air Venturi Male QD 1/8" BSPP is correct. WM

Please keep us posted !

We would like to know if you solved the situation.

 

[GoldenFrog]

I will keep you posted. Im going to get back into it in a few hours.

When I dry fire it multiple times to try and get the valve to seat when the gun is around 110 bar, should I leave that red anodized cap screwed on to the end of the barrel? I don’t want to damage anything by shooting air into a blocked barrel. Thanks

 

[starlingassn]

i would leave the red cap on,
and use the tank to fill,
i never had to dry fire mine to get it to seal.

hook up the correct fill probe
(you can take the whole hose off the included fill system and attach it to your air source if you dont want to wait for the adapter)
let the air rush in and give it a few seconds,
as mine took about 3 or 4 seconds of air from a tank before it sealed.

if it still doesnt seal,
point the gun to the sky and bump the butt of the gun on a solid surface while filling.

i have seen some need to bump it,
and some like me that just took a longer blast of air to get it to seal.
