When it comes time to put new seals or valves in a gun that you hardly see, it might be hard to find parts & service. It is hard enough with some of the more common guns.

It has nothing to do with your location. They must be really busy, I had to try calling about a dozen times last week before I got an answer.

I am sure it is a LP10. I think Neon21 has the winning answer.

Can I dry fire in the middle of a match?

Sometimes when I am having trouble with breaking a shot, it is good for me to dry fire a couple of times prior to continuing. Is this legal during an
AP or FP match?

In my very limited experience with light (7.0) grain pellets vs 8.0-8.3 grain pellets, the shot is closer to my call. My assumption for this is the shorter barrel time and recoil that is all but gone. I just tried some R10 lights and wish I did not have 5K H&N 7.7 grain pellets to use up first.

I really like my new LP10, who actually makes it?

I just received an LP10. What a nice trigger! Shooting 7.0 grain pellets, there is no perception of the shot breaking as viewed through the sights. My first 60 shots after I got sighted in were 14 points above my average. I hope things stay that direction. I noticed that the frame has an Anschutz lo...

I have not had much luck getting my (AP40 converted) 480 fixed. The best case I have found was to send it in, wait 10-12 weeks to see if they have the parts to fix it. I would be more chapped if I bought a new AP40 last year and got the same info. It would appear that there might be a new air pistol...

Do you know the approximate velocity threshold for this tearing, jamming?

Thanks.

Most will require some special tooling to overhaul i.e. special pin spanners etc. O rings and seals are not hard to change but working with high pressure air you need to know what you are doing. If you are not trained in high pressure pneumatics or hydraulics do not touch. I would think once my AP ...

Air Pistol Velocity Importance.

I now have a IZH 46, not M, for my backup gun. It seems that the M is the desired one to have due to the higher velocity. Why is this important? If the answer is "lower barrel time so that it leaves the barrel faster so that it hits closer to where you were aiming last", you would think th...

User serviceable 10M PCP Pistol?

I now have a PCP that has sprung leaks twice in the last 15 years. It is never at a convenient time. Is there a maker that provides the user the instructions to change out their own internal seals? Having this ability would put me into buying that brand over all else.

I had a 480 with a fixed tank that leaked. The only fix was to have it converted to AP40 tanks 8 or 9 years ago. My regulator has started leaking again. I have not got an email back from Larry as of yet either.

I am happy to own an IZH46 at this point.
