Leshiy Hammer Diveting?! SOLVED (Non-Issue!)

[mtnGhost]

Today, I noticed this divet forming. I have only run around 200 pellets through my Leshiy so far, and the HST has remained near the middle of rotational clicks.

Is this wear "normal"?? I'm getting the feeling that this part would need to be changed rather frequently :/

Also FWIW- ~100 of those pellets were with the stock regulator (with factory settings) and the latter ~100 with the Huma reg (set at 105 - 120 bar).

I think they all do that and I haven't heard of it being an issue. At least every picture/video I have seen the hammer looks like that and mine does too though not as bad as yours.

Hmm, that makes me kind of nervous. I seriously hope that it doesn't become an issue - I'm also a little surprised that the metal used wasn't a slightly harder class / grade.

I bought a backup valve, I might take the one that is in there out and measure it against the new one. I have to wonder though how the diveting affects VDT / shot dynamics. I don't know if the diveting tolerances are accounted for in the design when I extrapolate the thoughts.

Yeah I should mention that mine is .177 so I'm sure my hammer spring tension isn't nearly as high as some of the .25's

Maybe they are different but my Gen1 is flat as a pancake. Not sure how many rounds as I got it used. Had to be in the first US shipment with Serial# 0059

Would you prefer hammer to be harder than valve rod? In this case one should to replace valves to often.The cave in the hammer cannot grow up for ever, there will be local hardeness and it will work that way for a long time, if you will meassure it -- about 0.2-0.3 mm. That is normal.

What do you know about EDguns anyway?

J/K lol! Thanks for posting sir!

@EDgun, that was all that I needed to hear. Spasibo!
