hw100 air leak
wene i screw the cylinder on i hear air comming through the barrel .any ideas folks
-
yes send to hull cartridge for a service.I had one that leaked spent over twelve months trying to get it sorted now its fine or try fluffybuck on here for info

Sure it's from the barrel?
Check and see if it's actually coming from the screw fitting itself where the cylinder attaches - usually a slight loss of air at that point as the valve begins to open and the cylinder gives a bit more resistance as its turned until it is fully seated, ensure it's screwed in all the way.
Hope that helps.

Probably a loose breech block, but could be a sticky firing valve.
At your risk of damage/injury:
Take off air reservior.
Take off stock (2x 4mm bolts).
Remove barrel (1x 2mm grubscrew upwards-angled).
Take off trigger unit (2x 4mm bolts) (cocking arm must always be closed when removing or refitting trigger unit).
Split the action halves (2x 4mm bolts).
Tighten the two diagonally-opposite 4mm bolts on the front action half.
Refit barrel.
Re-join action halves.
Re-fit trigger unit.
Re-fit stock.
Re-fit air reservoir.
Should be job done.

Sorry to hear you have a problem. Do you keep the cylinder on the gun or store it separate?

I had a similar problem last month. It sounded as if the air was leaking out from the magazine area. Took it back to The Air Gun Centre, they sent it to Hull for repair, took 3 weeks but is OK now.
