HM1000x leaking

[Renman]

I think it would be helpful to keep the conversation here, just so others can benefit from learning how to resolve a similar issue with their RAW. As we know, there isn't a great amount of detailed information on resolving issues with the RAW's other than what's on the forums. If there is something you want to talk about offline about this, we can do it over email, PM, or I can give you a call

I would make the suggestions in my post above, in addition to thoroughly cleaning the hammer of any lubricants (and remove that o-ring! ). You should also do your best to clean the inside of the chamber that the hammer slides in. You can use a dowel wrapped in a rag or paper towels moistened (not dripping wet) with isopropyl alcohol. Ideally, both the chamber and the hammer should be completely free of any lubricants, so the hammer flight is consistent. Feel free to give this a shot and post your results back here.

Good Luck!

Thanks, I’ll keep you posted.

Thanks, I’ll keep you posted.

The good news, I reassembled, no leaks cocked the gun it fires. Bad news, whin I shut the air off from the bottle & release / unscrew the valve to release / relieve the the pressure all the air drains back out till empty. I’m guessing the bottle is not taking in the air? Is this normal ? I bought the rifle used, it was built in 2019.

The gun did or both gun and bottle if the gun shoots and gauge shows air pressure the bottle took air if it only shoots once or twice and shows empty then the bottle needs to be screwed in farther or the brass actuator that opens the bottle needs to come out farther to open the bottle

The gauge shows air pressure, I can cock & shoot it, the gauge is still showing pressure however I can’t remove the fitting on the foster fill port. With the bottle shut off the pressure gauge shows pressure, I release the residule pressure & all the air in the bottle is drained back out to zero. Then I can remove the fill attachment. No air in the gun.

Oh OK there is a o ring and a spring in it pull it out and you pull the bottom out of the little check valve replace the ring there and put a spring under it if that is missing

In the bottle?

 

[Airgunmann]

I owned a pre airforce so I'm pretty familiar with them

In the bottle?

Under the foster fitting
The Check valve part should slide out once you pull it apart and that o ring is the one not sealing
Wait till it's empty

 

[Airgunmann]

By chance what your gun look like white chassis ?
I don't think mine was that new though

I like the laminate as well

Removed the foster valve, no shuttle valve, no shuttle valve spring. Oring damage. Just wondering how the heck it worked when I first got it? Pics on the way. Ordering parts

Could just be dried out or who knows they can look fine and still leak also
