300S Seal Replacement in US?
I just picked up a 300S and noticed a wax-like conical breach seal that was starting to fall apart (prol the orig 30yo seal ;) ).

I went ahead and disassembled the innards of the compression chamber and re-lubed with some synthetic grease.

With only ~1000 rounds through the pistol, you should be ready for your first (perhaps second) lubrication of the piston seal Thanks for the reply.

With the breach open and the compression cylinder charged it holds air fine. Once I close and lock the breech, I hear a whisper comming from under the brea...
