Hello, the seal for the 12gm. caplet has crumbled away. It is a light brown but I can no longer tell how hard or soft it should be. Could anyone please tell me what it should be made of, please, so I can try to make a new one. I would be prepared to buy a new valve assembly.
Information on any spares would be appreciated.
Thank you very much.
Cheers.
Geoff.

could also try a crosman cart seal but not worked on the bb repeater only on the 78g pistol
Thank you all.
Pardon my ignorance but what is a Crosman cart seal? Where could I get one to try please, I have a number of Crosman's so information on any spares supplier would be useful.

if you put a pic of the seal up it would help
for cart seals I get them from an supplier who sells upgraded ones in red poly

Ped - can you refind that link - the above link doesn't work .
Thank you for the information, am having a think. Tried a few things, tap washer, stick on plastic cabinet feet!!
I can not put up a picture as the seal has literally broken up into small crumbs of light brown ????
It is difficult because there is not enough to even guess at a pattern.
I will come back in a bit after further thinks.
Cheers all.

As ped says - a common Crosman 22xx series cart seal - from any online supplier - if oversize to your S&W simply reduce the diameter down on sandpaper to make it fit .
is it self piercing or do you pierce it upon firing
try this link Jimmy

Goes to a page claiming non recognisable ?
The Crosman seal will be too small as the S&W one is over 13 mm in diameter identical to the clear one shown in the pic I posted on this thread. I asked the OP if the seal has a screw in retaining ring as he may be able to use the common orange coloured Umarex doughnut shaped one used in their pistols as it is only a tiny bit smaller in diameter (PW056 at Chambers). When held in place the capsule neck should seal OK.

so it uses the flying saucer seal from a 1077 and a few other older crosmans and was the reason I asked if it was self piercing or you shot it to pierce the cart
Found it ped - many thanks .
Geoff am sure will see this too so ...
