That would be fantastic. As of now, I have no plans other than keep it for spare parts.

Finally received shipping on my rear plug assembly. I was getting a bit nervous. Should be in Wednesday. Fingers crossed.

Yeah, I’m hoping once I get it squared, I’ll just be replacing O-rings in the future. We shall see.

Yeah, I knew I was taking a gamble on this particular one. You could see in the pictures AOA posted that it had definitely been well used. They didn’t try to hide it. They also tested it, sent me their shot readings, and it was holding air when I received it. But with it having all the barrels...

Mine loves the High Arc Hunter 365grn. Still haven’t hunted with it, but it’s hands down a huge improvement over my original Bushbuck. For me, if nothing else for the safety. The bolt is a beast on these and readying one under pressure quietly is not something I’d want to risk. I’d much rather...

Ummmm… You gave it the ol’ PasadenaMike and voila! 10K.

EdGun.shop had the complete assembly for $387. That’s the only way I could find it. I decided to go ahead while I could still get it somewhere.

Well, marksman for now. Ham sandwich for later!

I ordered a new assembly. Hoping I’ll have it before this weekend. Be nice to try it out for Father’s Day.

Less than zero. Probably just going to have to order the whole assembly. I never in a million years would have expected this to cause this many problems. I just thought I’d back it out and put in a new one with the proper tools to get it back the way it needed.

Update….. I had a great idea! I disassembled the tube and separated the front plug assembly. Sprayed penetrating lubricant on the brass fitting and allowed it time to soak in…. Then, I took a very small drill bit and drilled in on either side of the center hole for the valve. This made a new...

The paraffin is a really good idea. I’ll get some tomorrow while I’m out.

I do have a heat gun. I didn’t know if heating the brass with the solder gun directly, then allowing it to cool wouldn’t be better.

Here is the video that briefly touches on it. And I mean briefly.

Yeah. That’s what I thought too about the swelling. I watched one of EdGun West’s videos where he was repairing the valve on one and he briefly mentioned the brass cup and removing it with a screwdriver and heat. That’s why I was trying it thinking there might be thread locker or something. At...

I’m at a loss what to do. I looked at the 3/8” and could tell they were too thick. So, I ordered in the 9.5mm bit it needs. Still nothing. Got out my Milwaukee soldering iron to apply direct heat to loosen. Still nothing. Swapped to my A2 sight tool so I could get 4 points…. Broke 2 points...

Agreed. Trying to get that forward plug out now. It’s in there good. I have to go this afternoon to get a new screwdriver. I have a 5/16 slotted, but that’s still not quite wide enough to fully engage. I believe I actually need a 9.5mm. I’m going to try to pick up a 3/8” and apply some heat to...

I would have lost that bet! A+ to EDgun Shop ! Francisco is on top of his game!

Couldn’t agree more. I just can’t get with the plastic printed stuff. Hobbiest or otherwise. Let me clarify, Mad respect to the at home hobbiests that are printing amazingly complex and effective upgrades for their stuff, it’s very impressive and works. I’m not good enough with computers to...

Y’all are expensive acquaintances to have….. I hope that’s Arca. I think it is.
