I bought my Pinty Bup on 2/25. Very similar to my P-15 but with a side lever. It developed a leak through the barrel a few months later. I dry burnished the poppet/valve & it worked. I went to shoot it around the middle of August & once again heard air leaking from the barrel. Tried burnishing again but I can't get it to seal. I wrote Pinty & asked for a new valve & poppet to be sent out to me if they had them in stock? They said those parts weren't in stock but would send me a new Pup. Got the new rifle in 5 days & so far so good. I was surprised when sighting it in as it was pretty loud. Hit the Chrony with 14.3 pellets & was getting 957 fps. Way to hot for my liking, so I replaced the HS with the one from my first Pup that I had cut down. Nice and quiet now at 628 fps & way more shots. Also in the package of silicone grease & orings was a poppet & valve spring. They seem to be doing the right things to keep the customers happy.
