Air Pistol Help

Post by missfire »

I have an ISSF standards air pistol similiar to Styer. I can shoot once and then the second shot will jam.
I have checked the obvious. I am looking for advice on what other reasons it could jam.
I could slowly load it at one point and get three shots, but that is it.

I bought it from a company that is located in Germany. The daughter lives in Canada, so I went to their home to buy it.
They have blocked my email once I complained about the pattern.
I just bought it brand new.

I have good air pressure. I have a cleared everything of the jammed pellets.
What else could I look at or do?

What do you mean by "similiar to Steyr?" Where are you located? Have you contacted the vendor who built the air pistol for assistance?

It's most likely your gun doesn't like the pellets you're feeding it. Try pellets specifically for pistol. I have a FAS 6004 that is very finicky. It does well with meisterkugeln pistol pellets and crosman premier match grade.

Sounds like the top model of the Tesro match AP.

They have a square barrel shroud, making them quite "Steyr LP10 like" in appearance. Tesro competition air pistols and rifles are quite popular here in Canada. I have a couple of friends that shoot them and they seem to like them a lot. I understand that the after purchase support is very good so will be interested to hear what is going on.
