Q:

Evil powers workin against me..

As some here know I recently got a AA410erb, and well it’s been sitting in a case almost since I got it… 👿 First I needed a hose just so I could pump the rifle up..Ok got the hose. Then I needed a scope, so I robbed my SS of the Accushot I had on it and put it on the 410 after sighting in the old SS with a “master sniper”scope 😆 ..So yesterday I went to sight in the rifle, and in the back of my mind I knew the powers that be are going to work against me…I remember putting the rifle away with a certain pressure, but when I pulled it form it’s case and removed its silicon impregnated gun sock( god I’m picky) I realized that the pressure has dropped…Ok maybe I didnt put it away filled..so I filled it back up and stored it away just to check before I sight it in…And the pressure has dropped again 👿 Only slightly so I figured temp fluctations are the culprit…So I leave it as is and put it way once more…So over the pask 2 weeks I’ve checked twice…Both times the pressure has dropped slightly lower then before..Originally it had 170bar, when I went to refill after the drop it was at 120bar. Ok fine a slow leak..whatever I wanna shot this SoB. SO I take it out with the scope mounted and it’s shooting left..so I adjust the windage…and adjust, and adjust..I ran outta windage!!! 👿 👿 So I guess I should find the slow leak first since I can’t sight in the rifle.. 🙄 Where to begin? I’m thinking gauge area…any suggestions while I wait for my adjustable rings 😳

Well…just as long as it really can be fixed. It would be then a vry good deal. I would hate to have a gun that always had a leak that coundn’t be fixed.
The leak is in the Gauge?

“Fix that puppy”
😆

That’s the rig..

Here my “actual” rig
It is a smooth rifle, but I got it used so it has it quirks right now..but it’s such a simple fix its not really a worry. So killer of a deal for an almost “new” rifle (6monthsused) just under $600 shipped to my door. Ive been bit…multi shot has spoiled me 😆 Its contagious 😉

Hey, I love mine also….

Oh …ok.
Yeah… That is very nice. Beautiful wood stock!
He will get that minor seal problem fixed.
I think after I get my Airforce systems built up I was maybe thing of a Daystate Air Wolf?
Or something of that nature…
A British made air rifle once I have Tony Build my Condor.

Yup Yup..thats a nice rifle…
Thanks for taking the time to show me. 😛

Dragonfly, this is the gun he has. Excellent rifles especially for the price.

Can you show me a picture of your gun. This is interesting. If not thanks anyway…
I just want to see what gun your talking about.
I would like to see what air gun it is.
There is no end to what I don’t know…
😛
But if it is too much trouble to shoot us a picture of your rig thats cool.
Thanks…
I would just like to see what your talking about.
I used to work in a machine shop in the NAVY. I am no Journeyman but I learned things and I turned things out on milling mnachines and lathes.
I was pretty good at set up and getting a idea for a job. My supervisor was pretty badass.
It was like he knew everything to know about metals and their properties and how things were designed and why…
It blew me away….
I would like to see your rifle.
What is it exactly…?

I switched the mounts around and it shot to the right an extra inch of what it did before..so new mounts it is 8)

Found the leak…It’s not coming from directly underneath the gauge, it’s coming from the part that extends from the air cylinder to the gauge…err gauge mount..Seems there’s an oring under there..most likely the culprit…
Adam is there an easy way to de-pressurize the cylinder, or do I have to shoot it down? Thanks for the tips Adam.

As for the mounts, they’re cheap, I’ve already reversed them and will try it tommorrow..it’s probably best I buy new though anyways…Best way to check a scope?

Thanks for the help, I expect nothing less from the Charter member! 😆

PS: Somehow I’m member #4 😈

You need to shoot that bad boy down to get the pressure out.

Try a mix of dish soap and water and spray the area of the gauge. If there is a leak there it will bubble.

You can always call Boris at TOP GUN AIRGUNS for help he is the distributor.

Did you buy it new?

If so.. send it back…

If not.. speak to the guy who sold it to you……

The manometer (pressure guage) is a likely culprit for the leak, the sealant tends to deterioate over time.

The running out of windage might be bad scope mount or bad scope, but could also be a loose barrel and or loose shroud…..

failing any obvious loose parts I’d start with reversing your scope mounts (so that the left side is on the right) and see if that fixes it, or mirrors the problem…. then buy new ones.
