    Let all the air out my S400 :-(

    Hi Guys,

    I finally got fed up with the awkward AA brass T filler and bought a 'normal' push on valve.

    I let the gun run down of air and replaced the valve.

    Now I can't get the gun filled with air, it just bleeds out the barrel :-(

    Does anybody know how I can get the internal valve shut so the gun will fill?

    Thanks.

    Try it with the hammer cocked instead of resting on the valve?

    He he,

    FIXED :-)

    I read up on Google, you just need to cock the gun and then fill to 190 bar (normal pressure)

    Hope that may help others one day ld grin:

    P.S,
    Sorry Lightning22, didn't see your reply. You are correct

    I'm not known for my PCP smarts, but have you tried cocking the hammer before trying to fill it ?

    And make sure to bring that pesky PCP to The Bash.

    Make sure it's empty of air, DON'T cock the hammer and spend a few hours chortling away to yourself at Chris, Baldinio, trying to charge it with his pump!

    Pumping really ain’t so bad Tone, it’s all in the rhythm and upper body strength.

    Pump air in my S400 MPR FT I think not !!

    All that nasty atmospheric water vapour

    Don't need to worry about that with my TX200 though

    Boing Power !!

    P.S, Alisha is bouncing about getting her Brocock pistol at the bash, she can't wait !!!
