A Sick S410 Classic :(
Posted: Wed Apr 20, 2016 11:38 pm
Evening folks!
I need some advice and some parts! I bought a second hand S410 and it looks like its in need of a service and some general TLC. It's my first PCP and whilst i love it, it has some issues After buying it i realized the previous owner has removed all the anti tamper screws. It's sporting a small leak and venting through the barrel losing about 50-70 bar over a week, which suggests to me there is a leak with the firing valve assembly. Either its sticking and remaining open at which case i can clean it in the hope it fixes it or the firing valve assembly and/or spring is knackered and its not closing properly. If anyone can shed some light on my thoughts it would be appreciated.
Also the previous owner removed the blanking plate/screw to access the transfer port screw. I've noticed when firing it's venting a small amount of air out of the screw hole, see pic below. Is this normal when there is no blanking screw and if not how can i go about fixing this? Also can i get a replacement transfer port screw as the one inside looks as if the head is a bit chewed up and can i also get a blanking hex bolt to cover the adjustment screw?
As I'm going to have to take it apart fully i might as well replace all the 0 rings too including the magazine 0 ring and a de-pinger too
Can anyone just share the thoughts on the above and also can I get a price for the full set of O rings, de-pinger plus any of the above parts (if considered needed)
Cheers
