I have been searching hi and low for some kind of answer or solution to this problem. I bought an upgrade from Xxx. New Extreme valve, regulator, hammer and spring.
The instructions were somewhat good and I installed everything. I thought it was weird that I had to almost stand on the barrel to get it in far enough to get the bushings screwed in. I got it assembled and took it out to shoot.
It was extremely difficult to cock. I knew the new spring was stiffer, but about 80% up I hit a hard spot. I didn’t know what it was but I didn’t like it. I shot the gun for a week, then yesterday, I went to shoot it, I loaded it, shot it, and went to cock it again and the whole assembly puked out of the breach.
I took it apart and reassembled it this morning. It cocked, I loaded, shot, and now she won’t cock. I finally found a video this morning on the proper way to take the barrel out. It was not the same process detailed in the instructions the retailer sent me. The correct process is to cock the rifle, then hold the bolt, decock the safety and pull the trigger. Power wheel all the way down. The rest is screws and such, pull out the barrel and such.
My instructions said nothing about decoking. I guess that’s why I had to force it back in. So, I think I’ve bunged up something. I’ve read posts about cocking problems and they all suggest removing the auto safety. Can somebody please help me?
I’m new to the Airgun community. I bought a cheap break barrel 3 months ago and have become obsessed. As of to date, I know I’ve spent over 6k on guns, accessories etc. My Condor and my Texan are my babies. My .357 is power modded like crazy thanks to AAO and Jeremy.
Can someone help me get my .25 back in action.I have the barrel out now, I see the safety tab is up in the "safety off" position. and when I switch it to safety on, the tab goes down. The trigger mechanism up in front of the safety is up. So can I knock out the pin for the auto safety? What am I to do? The first pic is with the safety on, the second is safety off. I'm at a loss.
