Gained over 125 fps on my Discovery by removing ...

The de-pinger I put on it for some reason unknown to me. Well, I tore the Green Gun, Crosman Discovery apart to upgrade the valve because I built the gun so many years back I figured it needed the upgrade. I was amazed when I found this already in there. I also found this tiny de-pinger that effectively cut my plenum down to totally inadequate. Who needs a de-pinger on a totally non-silenced noisy gun anyway? I really don't remember any of this but do remember building the valve and was wondering where it went. ;^) It is now shooting the .25 JSB 34gr at 875fps instead of 750. Just a small peek into the memories of a brain damaged old guy. 












 
Nice stock. The depinger I've read is effective without robbing much volume is simply a bristled bottle brush cut down to fit.


The cylindrical units werq well for sure, as I have them on other guns, if you have enough volume for the plenum in them that is, I surely did not take that into account with this one. Bristle brush check.
