Hi guys,
A PCP question for a springer (I've put the almost same question in the springer forum as well).
I've got an overfilled gas piston (still in the rifle). How can I release the air?
It's maximum fill rate is 150bar, the non release valve must have been stuck or something. When connected to my scuba tank, the pressure jumped to 280bar (recently filled scuba tank).
I don't dare trying to remove the piston, do you think it's possible to drill a small hole to bleed it or will it explode?
You can drill a hole in a PCP bottle (when installing a regulator) without breaking the structural integrity... But it's no in the high pressure zone..
Any ideas?
Cheers
