Thought I should update this.
#1 my new to me Hammer arrived but haven't had time to do anything with it.
#2 the refund from Umarex arrived, so everything is square with them.
I really hope they get a better handle on this one QC issue, the rest of the rifle seems like it is made very well. I also posted this update to show that I'm not completely burned on their products, but support needs some overhaul. Parts diagrams are a must have item! Buying special tools will be the next issue as this rifle seems to need a few. I do hope they will sell me parts, that might be a third hurdle to clear. Since this rifle no longer has a warranty (no warranty for second hand purchases) I will need to be able to buy parts to keep it going.
And finally, with the battery mod on my Benjamin compressor, I can fill from 3000 to 4500 in 10 minutes, slightly faster if I have AC power. That's not too bad for the size of the bottle.
