Umarex Pistol Servicing

[Rikwaller1979]

Hi All,

I have recently found my old Umarex Pistols( CP88 Competition, CP99 and 92FS).

They have been sat in a cupboard for 6/7 years.

What kind of servicing would you recommend before i start shooting them again?

Thanks

Simon

If they work -none

What that man said .

Though it might be advisable to put a couple of drops of Pellgunoil on the main seal and top of the first CO2 canister you use.

That’s great, thanks for your help

These pistols just keep on going, and if they worked fine before probably no action required. If you find that the slide release catch is stiff/problematic, remove the slide (easy job) and put a smear of grease on the vertical plates that lock the slide; that will transform one that is problematic.

The most number of repairs I get on these pistols is the bending of the pressure plate because owners over tighten the brass nut before closing the lever. When the pressure plate gets slightly bent it "over cams" and drops the capsule nozzle back a few thou off the seal and the gas leaks. Immediately they think the seal is worn which it isn't. I just re-bend the Zamak casting and try to re-educate the user.
