SAM and MatchGun cylinders

[glenn andrew]

Can anyone confirm if a SAM and an MG air pistol cylinders are interchangeable or not. If someone could post or send a picture of their SAM cylinder it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I can't post a picture of my SAM cylinder, but here's the best description I can provide:

The valve has a male 'pin' projecting from the end. It is 2mm in diameter and protrudes 1mm.
Then there is an unthreaded diameter of 7.2mm, 2.8mm long.
Then there is a threaded section 9.5mm long. I don't have the tools to identify the thread exactly, but it measures 11.7mm in diameter and appears to be 1mm pitch (I count 9 full threads).

I don't know if anyone in my club has an MG, but if so I will compare next time I have an opportunity.

BTW, new SAM cylinders can be found here: https://www.10punkt9.de/
They may be able to tell you if they are the same (although they don't appear to offer MG cylinders).

They are not interchangeable. The match gun treaded valve is slightly larger and of a courser tread. The match gun fill adapter slips right over the sam cylinder valve

Gentlemen,
Thanks for the prompt replies and information. I was asking because of the 10punkt9 cylinders, now I know they will not work.

I ordered a cylinder from these guys back in April for my Sam10 air pistol. It took about 3-4 weeks but no problems. https://tec-hro.de/schiesssport/en/ I just emailed them at this address info@tec-hro.de
they promptly responded sending a pay-pal transfer envoice for payment.
