Replacing Pardini K60 CO2 cylinder seals

Is this a do-ityourself job or does it require special tools? I have several seals that came with the gun, but I can't find any documentation on replacing them. It looks like you should be able to replace the seal without disassembling the cylinder, but maybe not. One of my cylinders leaks badly aro...

Pardini K60 Help

I just purchased a Pardini K60 and the associated CO2 tank. Having never had a CO2 gun before the process of getting it filled is new to me. I read that the cylinders should be cooled before filling either by putting them in the freezer or letting ouot some CO2. The pistol cylinders have some markin...

Thanks guys - much appreciated. I have a tank coming but it is a few weeks out. I was hoping to get a small tank to get it going quicker. Apparently quicker is neither quicker or easier... :) I was hoping the guy at the paintball shop could fill my gun cylinders directly but he told me I needed a ma...

Filling CO2 Cylinder

I just got a Pardini K60 and I'm not sure how to fill the cylinders. I have an adapter that screws into the cylinder and has a 1/2" NPT female that will screw onto a 16oz paintball CO2 bottle I just bought. I think the problem is that the adapter that came with the cun is made for a bulk fill w...

FWB 601 Sight Question

I just got a 601 and was wondering if you can adjust the size of the aperture. It does not mention it in the book, so I am assuming that it is a fixed size. Is that correct?
Thanks - Jim

Excellent - yes that is what I was looking for. Is there a separate finals target for this type of scoring?

Thanks - Jim

Of course I have read the rules, but have never attended an event with finals. The rules that I read only refer to splitting the rings into 10 scoring segments - I just don't see how that happens on a bull the size of the air rifle bull. Relevant Rule: 7.14.7.4 Scoring of the Finals will be conducte...

Sorry if this is off topic - I posted elsewhere and got no reply. So how exactly do the air rifle finals get scored? Is there a different target? I can' see how a 1/2mm 10 ring can get divided up into 10 smaller rings, or how one could visually discriminate at that small a division. Thanks for any a...

Newbie Questions

I have recently started shooting 10m AR in my basement and enjoy it a great deal. I have been reading all I can but have a few questions. Mens Olympic AR matches consist of 60 preliminary shots, then a final 10. It appears the final 10 are scored in 10ths of points. Is there a separate target for th...
