Umarex Pistol Servicing

[Aimstraight]

Thanks for the replies, most informative. That plate looks quite hefty (although it is an alloy), it must suffer some abuse by those using the gorilla technique. I have seen vids on YouTube where folk close the lever by pressing it on a table (with their whole body weight)....seems OTT to punchure the thin metal on the neck of the CO2 bulb

The brass screw should be tightened up just enough to hold the capsule still.
It’s the base lever that does the piercing.

Baz has reformed a few bent ones for me - Berettas and Smiths.
They then work well.
All second hand!

I believe the Berettas are a pain to do as one side of the grip area is solid metal so the gun has to be dismantled.
